Can you elaborate? Processing date of what? Cognos Connection is a web portal that can display lots of content from lots of sources - does it really make sense for it to reflect the processing date of one thing? Can you explain further?

Meep!

Hi,

The requirement is to display the 'Processing date' which is a field in the database(MS SQL Server) in the cognos connection top banner on the right side of the Username and the tenantid.
Our environment is cognos 10.2.2 and we are using custom java authentication provider for security implementation.
We are trying to pass the Processing date value as a session parameter and displaying the parameter in the banner.
But we are stuck as we cant find a way to add an additional session variable in the cognos connection page.
We are also open to try out other ways. Please suggest a way to achieve this .

Thanks
