Visão Geral
Criar relatórios com dados multidimensionais projetado para orientar os autores de relatórios na construção de seus conhecimentos com o IBM Cognos Analytics, aplicando técnicas dimensionais aos relatórios. Por meio de demonstrações e exercícios interativos, os participantes aprenderão como criar relatórios que navegam e manipulam estruturas de dados dimensionais usando as funções e recursos dimensionais específicos disponíveis no IBM Cognos Analytics.
