Welcome to the Oracle9i Discoverer Administrator Tutorial! This tutorial provides a set of lessons that show you how to use the main features of Oracle9i Discoverer Administrator.
Computer users with some database knowledge and expertise as well as an understanding of the following areas:
Each lesson begins with an introduction and a list of exercises. Before you start each lesson, you may want to survey the list of exercises to get a sense of how much time you need to schedule for completing the lesson.
This tutorial consists of the following lessons:
Before you can do this tutorial, you need install the Discoverer tutorial EUL, data, and workbook. If the Discoverer tutorial EUL, data, and workbook are not already installed, see Appendix 1A, "Installing the Discoverer tutorial EUL, data, and workbook".
To follow this tutorial you must be able to connect to Discoverer Administrator initially as a user with a DBA role (see your database administrator for details). The reason for doing this is because the tutorial involves creating a new database user to run the tutorial. Normal use of Discoverer Administrator does not require DBA privileges.
Remember that the video store sample database is designed so that you already have read access to the tutorial tables. When you create your own business areas, you will need SELECT access to the database tables you need to access. You will also need to know the database user names who own the data tables.
Remember that this tutorial is your introduction to Discoverer Administrator's basic features and procedures. When you are working with Discoverer Administrator outside the tutorial, you may find that you need more detailed explanations. You should find the context sensitive Help system which is part of the Oracle9i Discoverer Administrator Administration Guide to be a reliable, useful source of information.
