Import a Crystal Report to InfoView w/o Universe?

[X96BB]

Greetings,

I am very new to Business Objects Enterprise and have developed several reports with the server version of Crystal Reports XI.

Can I import the already developed Crystal Reports into the Infoview of Business Objects XI R2 without a universe? The CR connects to the DBF with an ODBC connection . Is that good enough?

Thanks in advance!

Yes, that's fine. Using a universe is NOT required for Crystal reports in BOE. Since you're using ODBC, you just need to make sure that the DSN is set up as a system DSN on the report server(s) where BOE is running.
