A context is a defined group of objects that share a common business purpose. This business purpose is usually the type of INFORMATION that these related objects represent. For example, a sales context is a grouping of all the objects that can be used to create sales data providers. A RESERVATIONS context is a grouping of all the objects that can be used in reservation data providers. Contexts are defined in a universe by the universe designer.

You can combine any OBJECT within the same context to create a QUERY. You can ALSO combine objects in different contexts. If you use an object that is common to both contexts, Web Intelligence will try to determine the context that best fits the other objects in the query.
