1. Explain to us what is domain and how many are there usually in a basic setup?
Domain is nothing but logical grouping of system tables; there are three domains usually in a basic setup. They are Secure, Universe and Document. Business objects are sometimes called domain objects (where the word domain means the business), and a domain model represents the set of domain objects and the relationships between them.

2. Tell us what is Business Objects repository and when is it created?
The Business Objects repository is a set of relational data structures stored on a database. It enables Business Objects users to share resources in a controlled and protected environment. The repository is created by the general supervisor with the Setup wizard during the first-time use of the product. You can create and use more than one repository, typically to manage multiple sites.

3. Out of all the candidates that we have interviewed why should we select you only?
While answering this question you need to be very confident and sure about yourself. You can tell the interviewer about your special skills like communication, organization, technical and management, your knowledge in the business field and your special qualifications which would surely be an asset to the firm you are employed in.

4. Do you have any knowledge of the Alerter, Filters, Breaks and Conditions?
Alters are nothing but they are used to draw attention to a block of data by highlighting. Breaks are nothing but grouping the data without any change in the format. Condition is used to retrieve data which meets certain criteria. Filters are used to get necessary data.

5. Can you tell us the difference between master-detail and Breaks?
In break common fields are deleted (here in this case the table format is not changed) whereas in master-detail , we declare certain entity as a master to get the detailed information or report in this case the table format is changed.

Well these are some very important questions that are frequently asked in a Business Objects Developer Interview.
