How do I access information using OracleBI Discoverer?

You use OracleBI Discoverer to analyze information by creating and using Discoverer workbooks and worksheets.

A workbook is simply a named collection of worksheets. Each worksheet contains the data and graphs that you need to extract business information from the database. Each worksheet contains the result of a query.

Worksheets can show information:

• as data points in cells (formatted as tables or as crosstabs)

• as graphs (OracleBI Discoverer supports many different graph types)

You can create and analyze worksheets using Discoverer Plus and Discoverer Desktop.

You can view, analyze, and customize worksheets using Discoverer Viewer and Discoverer portlets.
