Parse Errors When Opening or Running an Upgraded Report

Earlier versions of ReportNet and IBM® Cognos® Business Intelligence included the cast_Date function for reports that run on an Oracle database. This function does not exist for Oracle in IBM Cognos 8.1.2 MR1 and later versions. If a report that uses an Oracle database includes the cast_Date function, parse errors will be received when you try to open or run the report.
