Best Practises

[terry_stjean]

We are in the process of creating our first Framework and I wanted to see if there is any documentation on best practises as far as the structure in the Framework.
What I mean by this is, should I have a data layer, a business layer and a presentation layer or just a data and presentation layer.
We are looking at creating a Framework for each department. Is this the way most are done or are they more specific.
When publishing packages, is there a way to group them in a folder in Cognos Connection.
For example, If I create 3 financial packages, can I group then in a Finance folder.

Please search for "ug_best.pdf" in the folder where you have installed framework manager.
