What does the SL in SI_SL_DOCUMENTS mean?

sdk development

Hi,

I noticed that in BI4, for unx files, the property required to find out the documents related to a unx file is SI_SL_DOCUMENTS, e.g. select top 1 si_sl_documents from ci_appobjects where si_kind = ‘DSL.Universe’.

But what does the SL in the middle stand for? Just curious so if anyone knows let me know.

Thanks

SL= Semantic Layer, aka “Business Layer” aka “UNX” – yes, confusing…

Thanks.

The SDK can get confusing. One of those SI_SL_DOCUMENTS can be a dashboard, which unlike other documents such as Webi or Crystal, is not to be found in ci_infoobjects but rather ci_appobjects.

Everything is easy when you know how!
