Hi  :)

we would like to use the Analytics Report Studio for Adhoc Reporting. But how can we turn off some "standard" Report Studio Functions for this role?

Thx

What sort of functions do you want to turn off? What you're trying to achieve might well affect the answer you get given.

I try to explain:

in Cognos Analytics 11.x there is no AdHoc Studio anymore and  we dont  want to use Dashboard. So we would like to use the Report Studio for the basic Adhoc Reports. Im pretty sure that this is the prefered way from the IBM?! For this we need to turn off some functionality in the Report Studio. Like joins, unions, maps etc.....  The AdHoc User should still be able to add some attributes from the package and to use all the format stuff like font size or colour. In the end the Report Studio is getting nearly the same functionality like the old Query Studio.

In 11.1.1 at least Query Studio is still here...you need to click on New > Other > Query Studio. Obviously that might be different in you configuration, but it is still available.

I'm not aware of any way to turn off joins, unions etc.
