Getting Started with Analysis OLAP

Analysis OLAP is a web-based tool and is the successor to Voyager and “premium” success to BEx Web Analyzer.  It has a zero client footprint.

It is to be used by the Business Analyst for multidimensional analysis and reporting.  Before using, ensure that the OLAP connections are setup in the CMC.

To start, logon to the BI Launch pad
