·Build the Database, Business, and IQD layers in the FM model,

·Publish the IQD files, then

·Build a Transformer model for the cube, using the IQD files as data sources.

Hi,

If you are using Transformer 8.4, then do not bother with IQD files. Use either Cognos 8 reports or Cognos 8 packages instead.

Regards,

MF.

Make your package in the regular way in FM but don't externalize as IQD's. Publish the package just as you normally would on Cognos Connection. Open up 8.4 Transformer and in the model creation wizard where you specify the source type (where you would specify IQD for example), just select Package instead of IQD and Transformer will open up Cognos Connection for you and let you pick a package you have permissions for.
