IBM Cognos Training FAQ'S

What is IBM Cognos tool?

Cognos is IBM’s business intelligence and performance management software suite.

This tool is specially designed for enabling non-technical personnel in large enterprises to extract corporate data, analyze them and provide reports to help businesses with informed decisions.

What is the IBM Cognos Query Item?

Query item is majorly used for reporting. It is also an essential object for framework managers. They are quite similar to subsets of query subjects.

In simple words, a query item is an object in the model that is actually placed in the report. It symbolizes a single instance of a specific thing such as data when that particular product was introduced.

  • For the purpose of relational metadata, we can modify the properties of query items by:
  • Setting usage and regular aggregate properties for following the intended use of the query item.
  • understanding how data is displayed in a report and format query items.
  • Recognizing column as a prompt, and know-how prompt information is displayed to the users.

What do you mean by Cardinality in Cognos?

Cardinality is defined as a relationship between the queries or tables. IBM Cognos supports both minimum-maximum cardinality and optional cardinality.

The relationship that can be formed between the tables are:

  • One to One
  • One to Many
  • Many to Many
  • Many to One

What are the different types of prompts available in Cognos?

  • Text Box prompt
  • Value prompt
  • Search prompt
  • Date prompt
  • Time prompt

What is the difference between macros and prompt?

Macro is a combination of instructions that executes the applications. It is a dynamic object used for querying substitute values at run time.

A prompt decides the manner in which report data should be displayed. It is defined either in catalog generation or report generation.

Not recommended as there will be no server access working to do practical after training. Also there will be no fix for the same. So it's wastage of money. If server access not at all working then no meaning to provide server access. Also it not working for single day properly. Need to followup daily but in response you told will fix that sir at home once he will back will fix. After he came back again it's not working and not able to fix for single day also Every time new excuse it's wastage of money.

I have undergone Oracle Tuning training. I can proudly say that this is one of the best training institutes available in the market. The way Mr. Kumar teaches the concepts and makes them understandable is very commendable and unique. Even a novice can clearly understand the concepts clearly after attending his classes.
