Merged idea

This idea has been merged into another idea. To comment or vote on this idea, please visit CA-I-2685 Add Master Detail Relationship for Chart Visualizations in Cognos 11.1.

Add Master Detail Relationship for Chart Visualizations Merged

The Master detail relationships option found under DATA for Cognos analytics Chart visualization is not available for 11.1R2.The feature is available in CA 11.0.9 version.The feature is needed,so that we can generate chart based on a Master query which will filter the detail chart and produce different outputs for each data member of the Master Query.

This is a very needed and critical component needed for Cognos Reporting and we cannot perform any upgrades with important features that are missing in the latest version.

    We are on 11.1.3 and still facing the issue. This further raises the question of doing an upgrade if important features from prior versions are missed in a later version.

    All the new 11.1 visualizations does not have an entry point for Master Detail sectioning (DATA part). This is very CRITICAL because it prevent all the new 11.1 visualizations to be used with BURSTing and dynamic PAGINATION. 
    This is most ennoying because that Master Détail feature exists for 11.0 and 10.x visualizations.
    Please correct this very disavantaging and  painful missing feature as soon as possible because it prevents using the new 11.1 vizs within Burst and/or Paginated reports.
    Thank you.
