Cognos 10 Upgrade Under Way

Monday April 25, 2011 CU will be running Cognos 10.  Some button images are different, and some buttons are re-arranged, but things remain located in same vicinity in the windows as before.  So when this day comes you will notice the change, but it will not be something that requires training.

m-Fin

All m-Fin reports will continue to work the same.

Other On-Demand

These are the non-m-Fin reports in the Finance and ePers folders. While the main focus of the OUC is m-Fin, we are bringing these other reports along until they can be decommissioned. All of them need modification to work under Cognos 10. Some require significant modifications, including changes in functionality – work we are still completing.

Report Cognos 10 Status
Outstanding Encumbrances OK.
Financial Summary NEEDS REPAIR. I expect we can get this to run by Org|OrgNode in Cognos 10, but not the other ways.
Revenue and Expense Statement Detail OK, but because this report eventually will be retired, please try m-Fin FINANCIAL DETAIL.
Revenue and Expense Statement Summary OK, but because this report eventually will be retired, please try m-Fin REVENUE AND EXPENDITURE SUMMARY.
Balance Sheet Detail OK, but because this report eventually will be retired, please try m-Fin FINANCIAL DETAIL.

Burst

The large month-end report bursting (the reports that show up in the my.cu.edu portal Reports tab) will continue to be produced using the old Cognos, rather than Cognos 10, through the end of the Fiscal Year.
