Title: Create a Measure Set in a Report
Post by: bec_jp on 16 Sep 2007 10:34:20 PM
Hi everyone,

I have a question regarding the ability to create a measure set (i.e. being able to select the measure the report is viewed) for a report in Analysis Studio.

Is there a way to group a number of measures together (i.e. units, $, cubage etc) so that when a user runs the report in Report Viewer, they have the ability to change the unit of measure (from units to $) the chart is showing?

Any assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated

Hi,

This is very much beyond the capabilities of what you can do in Analysis Studio (if you muct change the measure displayed at runtime using only the Cognos Viewer, not the Analysis Studio interface).

To achieve this kind of functionality, you would really need to use Report Studio and use a prompt to dictate the desired measure to be displayed.

Best regards,

MF.
