Title: Using C7 cubes in C 8.4
Post by: ssp on 14 Nov 2009 04:06:53 AM
Hi,
Can someone please confirm for me the following process, which is to publish MDC files to the c8 portal.

1. create FWM relational data model and publish package to c8
2. create Transformer model using the package from step 1.
3. create another FWM cognos powercube package and publish package to c8.
4. create report and/or analysis studio reports based on the package in step 3.

QUESTION:
This is the process I intend to use. Can someone please confirm if this seems like a viable solution to migrate an existing c7 cube to c8?

8.4 allows you to define a C8 package from the datasource in Cognos connection. There is no longer the need to go through the transformer model as in earlier versions..
