Relational Reporting Style

The relational reporting style is recommended for relational data sources. Relational data is best represented by lists. This data is organized in IBM® Cognos® Report Studio by query items.

In relational reporting, you summarize data by using headers and footers in lists, summary functions, and within detail aggregation. You focus data in relational reporting with summary or detail filters.

IBM Cognos Query Studio is also available to work with relational data.
