Cost of using Analysis Service

We have purchased SQL Server 2005, and we are planning to use the Reporting Services and Analysis Services to generate reports, KPIs and perform some OLAP analysis.

My question is that apart from the server licence of SQL Server, is there any other licence cost for the solution deployment, like developer licence, client access licence, etc.?

Thanks,

Chris

No, if these are all part of your SQL Server license. So if you have approriate licensing for your SQL Server you are also licensed to use SSRS and SSAS. But note that the SQL Licensing is per server, so if you want to put SSRS or SSAS on different hardware, they will need their own licenses at that point.|||

Do you mean the end-users do not need any additional software to view the reports and OLAP cubes?

How? Please advise.

Thanks,
