Add functionality to setup a data module in a way that can be used by multiple clients, each of them having access to a different database

The data module works only for one of the connections, the one that was selected at the moment it is saved. We need to be prompted for the connection instead of saving the connection along with the data module. We need a way to setup a data module that asks for the connection instead of having it hard-coded.
We have multiple clients, each of them has its own database but the schema is the same for all of them. We cannot create a separate data module for each client; that would be impossible to maintain.

    Those are good news for us. We need it.

    Thank you for the decision to add this functionality to Cognos and for notifying me.
