The BEx Web Analyzer is a standalone, convenient Web application for data analysis that you can call using a URL or as an iView in the portal.
The Web Analyzer allows you to execute ad hoc analyses on the Web: When you have selected a data provider (query, query view, InfoProvider, external data source), the data is displayed in a table with a navigation pane. You can navigate to the data and use other Web Analyzer functions available in the application toolbar. For example, you can change the type of data display, use the information broadcasting functions to broadcast your analyses to others, and create printable versions of your analyses.

Depending on the settings, data is displayed either in a table, a graphic, or in both a table and a graphic.

The BEX Web Analyzer is a standalone Web application that can be called using a URL by specifying the template 0ANALYSIS_PATTERN (standard Web template for ad hoc analysis).
You can also call the BEx Web Analyzer as an iView in the portal. For more information, see Overview: Integration and Display Types of BI Content and BEx Web Application or Query As iView in the Portal.
