Aggregate awareness is a term that describes the ability of
a universe to
make use of aggregate tables in a database. These are
tables that contain
pre-calculated data. You can use a function called
@Aggregate_Aware in the
Select statement for an object that directs a query to be
run against aggregate
tables rather than a table containing non aggregated data.
Using aggregate tables speeds up the execution of queries,
improving the
performance of SQL transactions.
The reliability and usefulness of aggregate awareness in a
universe depends
on the accuracy of the aggregate tables. They must be
refreshed at the same
time as all fact tables.
A universe that has one or more objects with alternative
definitions based on
aggregate tables is said to be “aggregate aware”. These
definitions
correspond to levels of aggregation. For example, an object
called Profit can
be aggregated by month, by quarter, or by year. These
objects are called
aggregate objects.
Queries built from a universe using aggregate objects
return information
aggregated to the appropriate level at optimal speed.

Can any one gve me the complete information abt Certfication of Business Objects ?
I am working on Business Objects-reporting side. Database is Teradata. I have two questions here: 1. We will be working only on Infoview on QA environment. Do I need to add ODBC entries for the QA database server on my machine to be able to create/refresh Infoview reports? I will not be using Desk_I or Web_I rich client. 2. Once reports are developed,Admin team would migrate the reports to Production and make these available to business users. The reports are Refresh on Open. Would the business users need to have the ODBC entries of Production database server in their machines to be able to refresh these reports?
Can you please send me the migration related issues .
