How to Configure CA Business Intelligence

After you install CA Business Intelligence, you configure CA Business Intelligence so it works correctly with CA SDM.

1. Configure initial CA Business Intelligence settings. This step loads the CA SDM universe and reports, creates groups, and optionally creates one user for each group and establishes group authorizations.
2. Add your CA SDM users and groups to the BusinessObjects Central Management Console (CMC). This step lets you control end-user access to InfoView and other BusinessObjects applications.

   Note: For more information about adding users and groups and configuring data partitions security, see the Administration Guide.

3. Add the default CA SDM Privileged User Account to the CMC.
4. Modify default security and Web Intelligence settings in CMC.
5. Integrate CA Business Intelligence with CA SDM. This step lets you specify Web Reporting options in Options Manager.
6. Configure Trusted Authentication for BusinessObjects and CA SDM. The authentication process allows users to log in without providing passwords more than once during a session.
7. (Optional) Configure BusinessObjects LDAP Authentication.
8. (Optional) Connect the CA Business Intelligence server to a different CA SDM server.
9. (Optional) Change the maximum size for a list of values.
10. (Optional) Change the report record limits.
11. (Recommended) Change the Web Intelligence session time-out value.
