Figure 4-40 Cognos Frameworks with our new package
In Cognos terms, we have now successfully published our package to the
Cognos BI server. But to make meaningful use of this package, we have to
create a Cognos report that displays the information within this package, and
thus within our cube service in a more user-friendly context. To achieve this goal,
we use the Report Studio of Cognos BI as follows:
1. Open a Microsoft Internet Explorer browser. Enter the URL http://<hostname
of the Cognos server>/ibmcognos, for example:
http://isw10g1/ibmcognos
The home window of Cognos BI will display as shown in Figure 4-41 on
page 147.
Browser note: Microsoft Internet Explorer is the only browser that
supports the full range of the Cognos tool set, in this case, Report Studio.
