New versions of four reports
m-Fin FISCAL ROLES now has a search prompt for employee.
Seven reports - three new and four improved - have been migrated to Cognos QA.
m-Fin is a set of CU management financial reports created in CU’s Cognos software. I use m-Fin Blog to communicate about the m-Fin reports.
Two reports migrate from Cognos QA to Cognos production this week.
m-Fin Blog has moved to a new software platform. Resubscribe.
Try out the new m-Fin FINANCIAL DETAIL in Cognos QA. We have added more project attributes to the header display, and also to the dataset output (MSExcel 2007 data and csv).
Usually it’s hard to use a list of position numbers that doesn’t show the names of the people that are in the positions. So when we created the m-Fin POSITION BUDGET report we made it display the ID and name of each position’s current incumbent. This is important to understand when you have positions that have been occupied by different people over time. The report is just identifying the *current* incumbent in order to cue the reader which position is which.
CU is now running Cognos 10.2.1 in production. My thanks to UIS/IRM’s Molly Doyle for doing so much to ensure a smooth production upgrade, and I know there are others in UIS who are backing her up, making her look good. Thanks also to OUC’s Sarju Khadka and Ryan Day for testing and troubleshooting.
If you have saved links to Cognos that go to “mod2″, these links will no longer work after this week. You will instead get a (useless) message asking if you want to open or save the mod2_cognos.so file:
