Title: steps for bulding a cube based on reports
Post by: shyera on 06 Oct 2010 12:10:35 PM
Can any one explain the steps for building a cube from cognos reports.

Can a report be based of multiple tables or should they be seggregated on based on one report for one table?

Please list the best practices for the faster cubebuild.

Thanks
Shyera
