Hi all,
I am new to Cognos and have following questions.
In the financial industry e.g. Goldman Sachs or Bank of America, how do we model their data in the FM in case they use Cognos. I am not looking for TM1. What subject areas do we create normally in the presentation layer.
Also what kind of reports they do develop in report studio for analysis.
Thanks
Kris
I'm no financial wizard, but a financial institution may need a whole set of models (even if you design everything in just one framework)
The model would focus on the specific subject area's. for instance , if you want to report on customer behavior or want to go for trend analysis you whould define a submodel on account transactions.
I also would expect that a large bank will have multiple datasources / applications / datawarehouses running on different RDBMS. Reporting would range from monthly/quarterly management reports to near-real time reporting to detect fraud.
I do not think it is viable to ask what is 'normal' to put in the model. you would need to know subject areas and scope..
