Title: Analyst and/or Contributor as data source
Post by: wyconian on 28 Oct 2012 02:53:36 PM
Hey everyone, hope someone can help.

Is it possible to use cognos analyst and contributor as a direct data source into a data manager catalog?  At the moment we're exporting cubes as text files, it's starting to get a bit messy :-(

Thanks for any advice

Hi,

Not directly, no. There is an option to deliver data out to a relational database - this would probably be the most robust solution.

Regards,

MF.
