With SAP NetWeaver 7.0, the following terminology changes have been made in the area of Warehouse Management:

The Administrator Workbench is now called Data Warehousing Workbench.

The ODS object is now called DataStore object.

The transactional ODS object is now called DataStore object for direct update.

The transactional InfoCube is now called real-time InfoCube.

The RemoteCube, SAP RemoteCube and virtual InfoCube with services are now referred to as VirtualProviders.

The monitor is now called the extraction monitor, to distinguish it from the other monitors.

OLAP statistics are now called BI Runtime Statistics.

The reporting authorizations are now called analysis authorizations. We use the term standard authorizations to distinguish authorizations from the standard authorization concept for SAP NetWeaver from the analysis authorizations in BI.

Note: You may still come across instances of the old terminology in the documentation.
