Title: PP Studio 8.4
Post by: Vick on 11 Jun 2009 04:41:57 PM
Can anybody tell me what would be the advantage of usiing PowerPlay Studio in Cognos 8.4 when we already have analysis studio which can be used to build reports against cube datasources.

Thanks,
Vick.

In PP8.4,you could see the context filter for all data items.There you can apply the filter based on req.your report get filtered based on context filter applied.where as in Analysis studio,there is no such option to filter the data against cube.We have to manualy drag the items.

The suppress zero function in ppstudio is way much faster than analysis/report studio
