BusinessObjects Enterprise Administrator's Guide

Entering database logon information

Some objects use data sources that require logon information. If the objects that you are publishing are of this type, do the following steps:

1. In the Specify Database Credentials dialog box, double-click the object, or click + to the left of the object to expose the database.

 

2. Select the database and change the logon information in the appropriate fields. If the database does not require a user name or password, leave the fields blank.

Note:    Enter user name and password information carefully. If it is entered incorrectly, the object cannot retrieve data from the database.

3. After you finish typing the logon information for each object, click Next.

The Set Report Parameters dialog box appears if it is needed.
