Documentation Resources
Like to read technical manuals? Me, too! BI 4.0 Documentation Resources provides ample links to the product documentation and “what’s new” documents for many of the BI 4.0 components. Don’t forget to TiVO that “Star Trek” movie to watch after your done reading these. Mr. Scott would be proud.
SAP BI Suite Official Product Tutorials include detailed process flows for the Business Intelligence platform (more “how does it work” than a tutorial), and pre-recorded video demos of Crystal Reports 2011, Dashboards (Xcelsius), Web Intelligence, Explorer (ad-hoc data exploration tool), Information Design Tool (Universe Designer), and Analysis (OLAP Cube exploration tool).
Videos
A number of preview videos have been posted on the SAP Channel at YouTube
“What’s cool about BI 4.0” videos are definitely created by the Generation Y crowd. Several short, funny videos share what these fans think are the coolest features of BI 4.0.
