You mean the processes that appeared in the Administration section of the Navigation pane in 9.5.2 et al?Motyl wrote:Why in cognos 10.2.2 i don't see process in tm1web (Only Applications and views)?

Why, they must be still there, the help file says so, I'm sure it does!
Oh wait... no they aren't. IBM decided that you don't need that functionality after all because the manual only contained a:
They go on to say:minor description of this feature.
Yeah. Because running a process is always an "administrative task" that you'd want to fire up (gods help you) Performance Muddler for.To perform administration tasks, use either IBM Cognos TM1 Architect or IBM Cognos TM1 Performance Modeler.
You also can't get away with putting shortcuts to the processes in your application folders. You just can't run them inside the Web interface itself as far as I can see. You can, of course, attach them to action buttons and run them that way. It may be tedious and annoying if you have a stack of processes that you just want to run "in the raw", but at least it gives you a way of running them in Web.

In addition to Alan's reply.
If you create a control cube using the }Processes dimension (or copy of it) and hold details of the parameters required, you can use a single websheet to select the process via a picklist and then populate the number of required parameters and using a single action button that derives the TI details via cell reference... you can execute anything.
Obviously more work but if you have a lot of TI processes and require the functionality to run any of them in the web then I would say it is the best way to do it.
