Anyone storing report images in repository?

This forum is the beginning of our inclusion of Cognos users to have their own place to go within our community. It is said the ETL and BI don't intersect, but as IBM integrates their platforms, there are less lines of demarcation between the two.

Anyone storing report images in repository?

Post by deboots »

Seems like I read about someone importing report image files/snapshots as entries to their Business Glossary. Anyone know of anyone doing something like this? Seems like you could use BG as a report repository - fitting them into a subcategory of 'reports' within your category tree - e.g. Finance>>Reports, HR>>Reports, etc. You could tie the terms to it as well. And designate a Steward. Anyone?

We have not tried this. However hyperlinks to published reports stored regularly on the file system are easily implemented in Business Glossary.
