Register Business Intelligence to Support Deep Linking

Deep linking lets you to navigate from an analysis on the interface pages to specific attributes and objects in your work areas so that you can work with them directly.

What does that mean? It means that if you're looking at an analysis on leads, for example, you can click a record on the analytic and go edit the lead record on the edit object page. To support deep links, use the Setup and Maintenance work area to register the Business Intelligence Server as a third-party application.
