Analyzing BI Usage StatisticsLocate this document in the navigation structure

Use

You use report-report interface (RRI) functionality to analyze the time trends of successfully executed BW operations. RRIs allow seamless navigation from the iViews to the relevant transaction or query. RRIs ensure:

  • Minimal effort in administration of BW systems
  • Immediate navigation to the transaction or query, optimizing the time taken
  • Optimal system performance
    Note

    Most RRIs are common to all iViews, but some RRIs are specific to iViews on specific monitors.

Procedure
  1. In the Detailed Navigation pane, under BI Usage Statistics, choose BI Application Usage Statistics.
  2. On the BI Application Usage Statistics screen, in the BI System Selection area, select a BW System.
  3. In the context menu of the relevant iView, select an RRI.
Result

The following RRIs are available on all the iViews that can be viewed in the BI Usage Statistics monitor:
