Hi!

Is it possible to create my own mobile dashboard, reporting tool for SAP? I understand the standard components to be used for this purpose are:

Business Objects Enterprise Server XI - this provides reporting functionalities for SAP
Business Objects Mobile Server - this connects to Enterprise Server and optimizes reports stored there for mobile devices
Mobile Web Browser or Mobile Business Objects Report Client - for viewing the reports

I don't intend to purchase the components mentioned above. I only want to know if it's feasible to build my own solution. I am familiar with BAPI's to retrieve data from SAP. What is the proper approach to build an SAP reporting tool?

Thank you!
