由 这一生的挚爱 提交于 2019-12-11 04:14:39
问题 I am having some trouble with an IF / CASE expression when consuming a TM1 cube in Report Studio. I am "filtering" a crosstab with a tuple function that includes an element from the "branch" dimension. The users can navigate through this branch hierarchy by a value prompt I have made.

I have therefore tried to make two query expressions which at

由 假如想象 提交于 2019-12-08 06:27:37
My team has been working with creating dashboards and drill-through reports. We've moved past our proof-of-concept phase and are now working to build the "production ready" reports. In our meetings it has been brought up that the overall styles for the reports should be changed from the Cognos defaults. We became aware of Cognos's skin system.
