SAP BusinessObjects Mobile for iOS 5.0

Today, June 26, 2013, SAP released SAP BusinessObjects Mobile for iOS 5.0 in the Apple iTunes App Store. The app requires iOS 6.0 or higher and compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. This app is also optimized for the iPhone 5 display.

What’s New in Version 5.0?

• Support for SAP BusinessObjects Explorer
• Support for SAP Lumira Server and Lumira Cloud
• A brand-new user experience for better organization of BI content
• Geo analysis and SAP BusinessObjects Design Studio support on iPhone
• BI inbox support to burst reports to a specific user
• Collaborative decisions with SAP Jam
• Support for Arabic language (right to left support)
• Technical enhancements

IMPORTANT: Explorer functionality requires the SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence 4.1 platform, so XI 3.1 and BI 4.0 customers will still need to use the standalone Explorer for iOS app for a while longer.

You can find all the documentation on the SAP Help Portal:

• SAP BusinessObjects Mobile for iOS – Administrator and Report Designer’s Guide
• SAP BusinessObjects Mobile for iOS – Release Notes (S-ID required)
• SAP BusinessObjects Mobile for iOS – User guide
