Use

You can use SAP BusinessObjects Dashboards to create visualizations of BW data. You can use BEx queries or query views as the data source for these dashboards. The dashboards are saved on the BW server using the BEx Save dialog. They can also be transported and translated like BEx objects. You can find and use these dashboards again as BEx objects in different SAP NetWeaver working environments.
