Cognos & Business Glossary Integration
I'm trying to determine if there is a way to modify the Business Glossary pop-up within Cognos so that when it searches (right-click on item and choose 'Glossary') it looks for both Business Glossary and Information Asset metadata. This would be similar to how you can adjust the settings of the Busi...

Thanks for sharing that information qt_ky. I finally heard back from IBM on the PMR that I opened on this subject, and they're confirming that this functionality around Information Assets doesn't currently exist. The response I got was in part suggesting that the Applications could be captured as Bu...

Ability to hide Information Assets from certain users
We're looking to bring metadata into the Information Governance Catalog (IGC) around our application portfolio, using the existing Application Information Asset type.

Business Glossary and Stewardship
Questions related to what others generally see as a standard for Stewardship assignment on the IGC side. We currently have Stewardship groups (Central Finance, Logistics, HR, etc) that are used as Stewards when these are assigned to our glossary terms. This approach was used initially as an alternat...

Thanks Ernie, I appreciate the thoughtful response. We by all means are trying to make the decisions very business focused, and have already had some great conversations with our business community on some of these topics. I'm not sure that I personally like the option of removing Class words from t...

Standards for Business Glossary Term Names
Greetings, We're dealing with some challenges on naming conventions for Business Glossary terms, specifically around the tug of war between completing spelling out Class words versus Abbreviating them. As a standard, we try to include a Class word (Name, Description, Date, Code, Flag, Number, Amount...

Data Dictionary for XMETA database
Is anyone aware of a data dictionary that is published by IBM or a third party on the XMETA database that is used to store IGC metadata? We're looking for additional options for querying the metadata in the database, specifically around Business Glossary terms and Information Assets. Any information...

As a follow-up to my call with IBM yesterday, they hadn't been able to replicate what I was seeing in MS Word. I was also informed that the latest BGA patch/update was supposed to have corrected the issue that was noted in the Technote ( http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21607599 ) th...

Initial testing reveals that the keyboard based method for text-capture is much more accurate than using the keyboard and mouse based method. This not only holds true for MS Word where I was having the biggest issue when using the keyboard and mouse combination, but also the other programs I tested....
