Cognos 8.4 BI using TM1 9.4.1 as a data source
Posted: Wed May 20, 2009 11:37 pm
Reporting off TM1 in C8 looks very good so far: Set TM1 cube properties, bang through the FM wizard/connect to the TM1 cube (via the TM1 OL EDB driver?), publish and there it is in C8. Hierarchy, data and even formatting changes flow through.
I tried this off the local SalesCube included with the install and it works a treat in Analysis Studio which creates it's own Native MDX. But I tried this using a different cube with DB references to results in another cube with a dimension called 'Region'; and it aggregates City (nth level) > Region (first consolidation) OK, then if I drill up to see Region > Total Company (root of the hierarchy) it shows nothing/null consolations.
Any ideas as to what might be going on here?
There is no skipcheck in the rules, so it shouldn't need feeders right? or would I need to force TM1 calculate somehow? Or might there be a problem/mismatch with the Native MDX C8 is creating for TM1?.. I could paste it in but it's ugly..
