    • Hi Venkat,

      Alias – If the schema is having only one end of the one to many joins and no others with only one end joins use aliases.

      Context – To resolve Chasm Trap & Fan trap and also to avoid loops in some cases.

      Shortcut Join – Shortcut join mostly used when you A, B, C & D tables and all are joined (A-B, B-C, C-D) and you dont want any object from C table in that case you case use Shortcut join A-D and while executing the query table C will be eliminated.

      Thanks

        • Hi Srinivas, migrating from 3.1 to 4.2 environment wouldn’t be an big issue and more or less both versions are having similar functions. You just make sure your report alignments are as expected after the migration.

          Kind request to you, please post the questions in respected post which help everyone find the proper answer for all the time.

          Thanks

    • Hi Venkat,

      ZABO is used in old version of Business Objects.

      ZABO (ZABO means Zero Administration Business Objects) is also known as 3-tier Reporter, the benefit is central administration and updates using the Business Objects server (aka Webi server). All database middleware only needs to be installed and configured on your Business Objects server and not on the individual workstations.

      ZABO will install as a full blown application though on the workstations. When started ZABO connects to the
      Business Objects server and all Business Objects requests are then handled via the Business Objects server (hence 3-tier).

      3-tier deployments of Business Objects bring you all of the reporting options and most of the data analysis
      functions of the 2-tier version of the flagship product Business Objects in a zero-administration solution. This deployment of Business Objects offers the following advantages:
      • The client machine is automatically configured during installation.
      • Middleware is installed on the server so data access is centralized and easier to maintain.
      • A Business Objects server handles both login and data access.
      • The server system processing Business Objects requests can run either Windows or UNIX.
      In this scenario, Business Objects runs on a Windows PC as a standalone Windows application. Each time you
      launch the product, it checks that it is compatible with the server version; if it is out of date; you are
      prompted to update your client version. Only the minimum required software is installed on the client PC. All middleware and online help files remain
      on the server, and security and access is handled through the Business Objects server. This means no client-side administration is required.

      Thanks
