Web Intelligence Rich Client is a locally installed Microsoft Windows application that lets you work with Web Intelligence (WID) documents that are stored locally or in a CMS.
When working without a CMS connection you can work on your local machine with either CMS-secured or unsecured documents.
Web Intelligence Rich Client is based on the Web Intelligence Java Report Panel and provides equivalent document creation, editing, formatting, printing and saving capabilities.
There are a number of reasons for using Web Intelligence Rich Client to work with WID documents:
· You want to work with Web Intelligence documents but you are unable to connect to a CMS (while traveling, for example).
· You want to improve calculation performance: Web Intelligence Rich Client performs calculations locally, rather than on the server, and local calculations can perform better than server calculations.
· You want to work with Web Intelligence documents without installing a CMS or application server.
