    Universe Designer Overview

     In order to report data using Business Objects reporting tools, we need to create universe on top of theunderlying database.

    Business Objects provides a tool nown as Designer to create universe on top of any database.

    Universe act as a semantic layer. !onnection parameters for one or more database middleware.

    "he role of a universe is to provide an easy to use and understand interface for non technical WebIntelligence users to run #ueries against a database to create reports and perform data analysis

    Universe Designer Overview

     $s the universe designer, you use Designer to create objects thatrepresent database structures, for e%ample columns and databasefunctions, that users need to access and #uery, to get the informationnecessary to meet their business re#uirements.

     $ universe contains the following structures& ' !lasses ,Objects

    Classes

     $ class is a logical grouping of objects within a universe. It represents acategory of objects. "he name of a class should indicate the category ofthe objects that it contains. $ class can be divided hierarchically intosubclasses.
