IMPORT REPEATER TABLE WITHOUT LOSING FORMAT USING IBM COGNOS FOR MICROSOFT OFFICE

System: IBM Cognos 10.2.1
Actor: User needing new feature

IBM Cognos is a commonly used product that provides reporting for better control of company data.

Description: Our team uses IBM Cognos to report company data and to send this report as presentation to company's directors. To create this presentation we started using IBM Cognos for Microsoft Office. In the beggining, this tool worked fine. However, we needed to change our report to use conditional legend and custom palette and the way we find to implement it in our report was following this TechNote(http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21632538). The best practices to create reports using IBM Cognos for Microsoft Office (http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSRL5J_1.1.0/com.ibm.swg.ba.cognos.ug_cr_rptstd.10.1.1.doc/c_cr_rptstd_intrd_recommendation_creating_go_office_reports.html) explains to not use nested report objects as it loses format.
So it is not possible to import Cognos report to Powerpoint presentation without losing format.
The tool should keep the format of nested objects(repeater table) to be easier to import the report and update data using IBM Cognos for Microsoft Office.
