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.

Regarding Hyperlinking in Business Objects. We have a few reports in QA environment where a number of hyperlinks are employed using OpenDoc function.In some of the reports,hyperlink is used to move to another tab within the same report.The formula used include "DocID" and ReportName="tab name".This works fine but now,for the PROD move,this will not work as the Doc Ids are subject to change. Is there a way to overcome this?Without DocID,how will move to a particular tab? Thanks in advance

I have two data providers with common dimension and measures. The only difference between two data providers is in condition 'Fiscal Year'.One data provider calculates for current year and other one calculates for previous year. So in prompts if I am passing 2008 as current year then the two data providers should be able to calculate for current year and previous year individually. So Can anybody tell me how to do calculation in data providers. ( I am using BO WebI report )
