Once you have visualized BI data as dashboards using Xcelsius, you can find/use these visualizations again as BI objects in different SAP NetWeaver BI working environments.

  • You can integrate visualizations as iViews into the portal or display them directly in the Web browser, like a Web application, using the URL parameter dashboard=. More information: BEx Web Application or Query As iView in the Portal

  • You can also find and call these visualizations in your favorites or roles on the SAP Easy Access screen of the relevant BI system, depending on whether you saved the visualizations under favorites or roles in the BEx Save dialog in Xcelsius.

  • Integrating Xcelsius Enterprise and SAP NetWeaver BI means that the dashboards (that visualize BI data) are saved as BEx objects on the BI server. Therefore the dashboards can be transported like other BEx objects. You can access the Transport Connection from the SAP Easy Access menu of your BI system using transaction RSA1.
