Navigation Paths in Data Modules

[chr.93]

Dear fellow Cognos experts,
I would like your input on the case I am working on:
In order to fulfill client's need for drill up/ down functionalities during self-service reporting,
I published the relational FM Model I have created and then, in Cognos, I imported it in a data module in order to create navigation paths for the fields that the cliend wanted to have this functionality.
And so far everything is working fine.
But, the client requested that we organise the navigation paths into folders.
i.e. Our Data module is structured as follows:
--> Model
   --> Facts
   --> Dimension
      --> Dimension Area 1
         --> Dimension 1
         --> Dimension 2
         --> Dimension 3
      --> Dimension Area 2
      --> Dimension Area 3
--> Navigation Paths
   --> Navigation Path 1
   --> Navigation Path 2
   --> Navigation Path 3
   
And what we would like is the area of navigation paths to follow the structure of the model:
--> Navigation Paths
   --> Dimension Area 1
      --> Dimension 1 - Navigation Path
      --> Dimension 2 - Navigation Path
      --> Dimension 3 - Navigation Path
   --> Dimension Area 2
   --> Dimension Area 3
Do you know if that is possible by any means ?
If not, do you know if I can order the Navigation Paths from A - Z for example ?
Because right now, the ordering is random, based on which dimension path is created first.
Many many thanks in advance

Just to confirm, you want to be able to reorder the navigation paths so that you have control over where each one appears in the navigation path metadata tree.  Is that a correct understanding? 

You also want to have the ability to create folders in the navigation path tree.  Is that a correct understanding?

Also, you know about how to order elements in a navigation path and that is not part of the problem you are encountering.  Is that a correct understanding?

Yes all three of them are correct!

No I can't see any way to do either. 

You might want to log an enhancement.
