Hi all in the Cognos Community,
We have a general report template we've created and the only thing we are missing is a way to keep track of each report. We would want this distinction between reports so we can directly go to a specific report and help troubleshoot an end users issue.
I'd like to know what methods you use as a report distinction method.
We were thinking of a Report ID # and maintaining the report id #'s in an excel spreadsheet w/ description for us to use but fear we may not keep up maintenance.
-OR-
Just including the Report Path() to return the report path but fear that the size of the paths may cosmetically affect the look of the report.
Does anyone know of a way to possibly have the Report ID # increment 1 each time the report opens or some other way of better automating a way to design a Report Identification #?
Please let me hear your thoughts and current Report template ideas ...
THANK YOU AHEAD OF TIME
