\"coming<\/a>We are currently in the very final stages of editing the second edition of the\u00a0SAP BusinessObjects Dashboards 4.1 Cookbook<\/strong><\/a>. We expect the book to\u00a0be available in an eBook and paper edition in just a few weeks from now (April 2015).<\/p>\n

For this updated version of the cookbook we broadened the scope a bit for the beginning\u00a0SAP BusinessObjects Dashboards developer as well for\u00a0the more experienced user. We will for example provide some more\u00a0introduction to the\u00a0SAP BusinessObjects Dashboards tool itself before diving into the practical step-by-step recipes right from the start. For the more seasoned users we added chapters about dashboard performance tuning and development productivity, plus a bunch of new tips & tricks throughout the book.<\/p>\n

The original cookbook was released almost five years ago and covered version 4.0 of\u00a0SAP BusinessObjects Dashboards. The second edition is updated up to the latest version of\u00a0SAP BusinessObjects Dashboards 4.1.\u00a0Together with a team of technical reviewers, existing of some world class\u00a0SAP BusinessObjects Dashboards developers, we checked the existing content from the first cookbook on its relevance, correctness and completeness. Most recipes have been updated, some a bit more than others, and we decided to keep a few of them out of the new book.<\/p>\n

Of course we also added a lot\u00a0of new recipes to feature\u00a0the new 4.1 features and include\u00a0more tips & tricks. We discuss all the new components, the new mobile dashboards concept and the new connectivity options, complemented with new chapters on performance tuning and development productivity.\u00a0At the end of the book the other dashboarding solution by SAP (Design Studio) is introduced.<\/p>\n

With 100 recipes and 470 pages of content (almost 150 pages\u00a0more than the first edition) this will be\u00a0th\u00e9 ultimate and definite guide for\u00a0SAP BusinessObjects Dashboards 4.1 developers!<\/p>\n
