IBM Cognos Active Reports
You can use IBM® Cognos® Report Studio to create
active reports. IBM Cognos Active Report is a report
output type that provides a highly interactive and easy-to-use managed
report. Active reports are built for business users, allowing them
to explore their data and derive additional insight.
Active reports make business intelligence easier for the casual user. Report authors build reports targeted at their users' needs, keeping the user experience simple and engaging. Active reports can be consumed by users who are offline, making them an ideal solution for remote users such as the sales force.
Active reports are an extension of the traditional IBM Cognos report. You can leverage existing reports and convert them to active reports by adding interactive behavior, providing end users with an easy-to-consume interface.
Like existing IBM Cognos reports, you can execute active reports from IBM Cognos Connection as well as schedule and burst them to users.
