Adding a Metric Studio Diagram to a Report

You can add IBM® Cognos® Metric Studio impact or custom diagrams in your reports. Impact diagrams show cause-and-effect relationships between metrics. Custom diagrams allow you to monitor your metrics using a predefined visual representation, such as a process diagram or strategy map.

The diagrams are added as images within your report.

You can add a diagram in the following ways:

as a static image with the Metric Studio Diagram object
as a dynamic image from a metrics package

You can also add range indicator charts.

You must first create custom diagrams in Metric Studio before you can add them in an IBM Cognos Report Studio report. Impact diagrams are automatically created in the metrics package. For information about creating Metric Studio diagrams, see the Metric Studio User Guide.
