Title: Cognos and Sharepoint
Post by: teelee on 10 Jun 2009 08:00:43 AM
Hello All,

Has anyone used Cognos with Sharepoint?   ???

We're wanting users to be able to view reports and dashboards with scorecard metrics in the company's Intranet.  Someone mentioned this could be done with Sharepoint.

If someone has been successful, please, I'm looking for direction and advice.  If there is another way to view reports via the Intranet without using Sharepoint, I'm open to any suggestions.

Thanks in advance, and have a wonderful day!  :)

Hi Kolonell,
Thanks for the information.  We followed the instructions thru to setting up the Vitual Alias.  However, when we tried to validate the alias, we were not able to do so. 

We entered the following information on a browser as indicated.  Can you tell me what else I may need to do in order for this to work?

Thanks and have a wonderful evening!  :)

hmm .. I suspect you are talking about the additional Virtual Directory that is needed. What steps have you taken ? what error do you get then ?
