why you create universe and creating reports based on that?
why dont we go for crystel reports and generate reports
directly?tell me the advantages?please answer to this question.

Answer Posted / vidhya

Main difference is ROLAP (Relational OLAP) supported by BO
and not by Crystal Reports. ROLAP meaning is you can try to
generate the universe using SQL's from several data sources
(whatever you call like SQL Server,ORACLE etc;).In Crystal
Reports if you try to add more that one datasource that's
it!! the verify database option will be disabled(which
means it does not support)
