    The 'View Transaction History' log within Framework was a good way to identify evolving changes on a FM project. Data Modules, by my understanding, do not have this facility. This type of enhancement for DM's would be beneficial for developers to ...

    Cognos 11 - scheduling active reports

    In Cognos 11, the ability to subscribe to an Active Report is no longer there. This is a feature that existed previously. In Cognos 11, if I open a regular report, I get a "..." menu where I can choose to subscribe to the report. However, for Acti...

    Bursting option in schedules of report views
