Good day, I'm new to the forum & need help.
I currently have v7.4 module designing experience & my company is moving over to V8.4
I beleive that v8.4 is very different to v7.4
I would like to become a Cognos 8 BI Metadata Model Developer, can anyone direct or share to teach myself material.
I'm not looking for big textbooks, perhaps something more teach yourself for dummies, labs,guides, samples on how to start & do basic.
Or perhaps where can i get a copy of a virtual machine where i can practise labs to teach myself.
Apologies if this is the incorrect forum.
Regards
Hi -
7.4 Transformer = Transformer used in 8.2
Since then there has not been much enhancement in terms of developing a cube. The only major enhancements are in scripting technology and the fact that you can use a Package as a data source from 8.4 onwards.
If you actually have 7.4 experience, you do not need any books for dummies.
You also have to ask yourself whether you mean BI Modelling (Framework Manager) or OLAP Modelling (Transformer) when you are thinking of 'Metadata Modelling'. As far as I know, there was nothing called ver 7.4 in Framework Manager.
Good day,
OLAP Modelling (Transformer), is there some pdf/docs on excersises/labs i can read over & learn?
Regards
You will find the user guide in this folder:
Program Files/<cognos installation folder>/webcontent/documentation/en
File - ug_cogtr.pdf
