	BOE210 (SA210R2) SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise: Administering Users and Content with CMC 2 day instructor-led course Course Description This two-day instructor-led course explains how to perform the tasks in the central management console (CMC). These tasks involve supporting BusinessObjectsTM Enterprise users and groups so they can access corporate data through the web portal in BusinessObjects Enterprise. This corporate data can take the form of Crystal Reports?, BusinessObjects Web IntelligenceTM, or Desktop IntelligenceTM documents, OLAP IntelligenceTM reports, program objects, object packages, and popular third-party objects, such as Microsoft Word and Excel files, among others. Please note: this course does not discuss maintaining BusinessObjects Enterprise servers, which is taught in the BusinessObjects Enterprise XI R1/R2: Administering Servers – Windows course. The business benefit of this course is that it provides a foundation for system architects / administrators to effectively manage both users and content on the Business Objects Enterprise platform. BusinessObjects XI R1 and BusinessObjects XI R2 Both BusinessObjects XI Release 1 and 2 users may attend this course. BusinessObjects XI Release 1 users will notice some sections throughout the course that do not apply to their deployments, as a result of new BusinessObjects XI Release 2 functionality.
