Explain the relationship between the dbo and FullAccess schemas. - ** VERIFIED ANSWERS

everything in the dbo schema (minus a few metadata columns) plus additional columns in some
tables. Since FullAccess has more data, report writers should use it when writing queries. However,
report writers should also be familiar with dbo due to its relationship with the Cogito Dictionary.
