You can specify the output of your analysis
to suit your purpose. Differences may exist between an IBM® Cognos® Analysis
Studio analysis and a report created to be run in IBM Cognos Viewer
in such areas as performance optimization, drill-up and drill-down
behavior, and preservation of items such as subtotals, More values,
and so on.
Your administrator can change
the default behavior. For more information, see the IBM Cognos Business
Intelligence Administration and Security Guide.
Procedure
- From the Run menu, click Report
Options.
- On the Output Purpose tab, specify
the purpose of the output:
- To create a report featuring the current state of the analysis
that is as close as possible to the original created in IBM Cognos Analysis
Studio, select View as analysis.
This option
is best if the output must be printed, or if the output must be consistent
whether it is launched from Analysis Studio or run from IBM Cognos Connection.
Note: This option makes unavailable the drill-up and drill-down
capability in Cognos viewer.
- To create a report that you can explore by drilling up or down
in Cognos Viewer, select Use
as interactive report.
This output may be modified by
the drill rules of Cognos Viewer,
and may have some visual differences from the analysis as seen in
Analysis Studio.
- Click OK.
