Business Scenario
� A client has an existing BOE XI 3.1 deployment using .NET InfoView. Currently they
have Xcelsius SWF files loaded into their SharePoint 2007 Document Library, but
they rely on QaaWS to pull in live data. However, each time an end-user hits the
page containing these dashboards, they are prompted to enter a username and
password. How can the credentials pass through without the use of a custom SDK?

Xcelsius dashboards & connections housed within InfoView PASS-THROUGH to SharePoint once integration is successful.

What are Web Parts?
� A web part is an ASP.NET server control which is added to a
Web Part Zone on Web Part Pges by users at run time. Web
Parts are an integrated set of controls for creating Web sites
that enable end users to modify the content, appearance, and
behavior of Web pages directly from a browser.
2009 SAP BusinessObjects User Conference 9
Basically, Web Parts are Microsoft’s version of Web Widgets.
