XCelsius 2008 Viewer Licenses

We have a small team of users who design dashboards using XCelsius 2008 and have a full 2008 XCelsius Enterprise license. We create the dashboards within XCelsius, export as a SWF, and host the SWF on an internal website.

The users who consume the dashboards shouldn’t need an XCelsius Viewer license from what I can tell but SAP is saying otherwise. These users do have a BO license so they can log in to Web Intelligence and log into the dashboards when prompted. Does anyone have any experience with this? Are XCelsius Viewer licenses actually needed to view the dashboards in SWF format outside of the XCelsius application?
