# BusinessObjects

The BusinessObjects system type in Avantra lists systems which are SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence systems. We support BOBJ systems from version 4.2 onwards. These systems include checks to manage system uptime, performance, and job execution. A stand-alone database system type must be defined before adding a BusinessObjects system.

| The Business Object system type does not include SAP BusinessObjects Data Services (BODS). These systems are quite different as their underlying technology does not allow the same methods for monitoring.
