RRDI Data Models


Peter George (2651) | asked Oct 13 '11, 10:08 a.m.
We were wondering on how to update the Cognos reporting data models. We have added some custom attributes in RQM and now we want them to show up for reporting. Is there a way to get these custom attributes to show so when we report on them we are able to select them? and if so, can you please walk us through on how to get them updated.
Thank you in advance.

Hi George,

You cannot change the model in RRDI. To access the custom attributes, use the Test Plan related String, Integer or Date Extensions in the ODS.

That only works on the Quality Management side. We added attributes to Change Management through Eclipse. Now we want to report on these attributes, but they do not show up in the reporting tool. Is there a way to report on the added custom attributes in Change Management?
