Title: Externalize query subject
Post by: Vick on 16 Mar 2009 11:42:27 AM
Can anybody tell me how can we externalize query subject in Framework manager and use it in Transformer to build the cube. I tried to do it while publishing a package using cognos framework manager. But, when I look into the selected folder after publishing the package, I do not see any file created there. Am I doing something wrong ? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Vivek Mody

First Merge all the Query Subject that you wanted to use it in Transformer as the Source.

In this Merged Query Subject , Properties -> Externalize the query subject -> IQD.

Then Publish the Package.

File open Dialog Box go to that location keeping file type as *.* , then u will find a file with extension Queryname.iqd
