Chapter 1. The setting for the tutorial

In this tutorial, you work for the Sample Outdoors Company. You will use IBM Cognos Insight to examine and review corporate data. By using the sample workspaces to perform a set of tasks, you can explore Cognos Insight and learn how it can help you use your corporate data to fully understand how your company is doing now and what lies ahead. Specifically, you need up-to-date information that will enable you to perform the following activities: v Determine the current state of your company v Identify trouble spots v Perform what-if analyses to help plan the future direction of the company You will assume different roles as you perform the tasks in the tutorial. There are two samples included with this tutorial, the Orders sample and the Human Resources sample. Each task in the tutorial is based on one of these samples. Each sample consists of a workspace that displays data that relates to the sample. Each workspace includes these widgets that enable you to understand and interact with your data: v Tabs, to make it easy to browse through the workspace v Crosstabs, to view dimensions and perform basic analysis on your data v Charts, to clarify numbers and communicate comparisons, relationships, and trends v Text, to create a title or add an explanation v Images, to add visual impact

Chapter 2. Importing data

As a sales executive at the Sample Outdoors Company, you want to review your company's order data in IBM Cognos Insight to analyze your company's performance. You have a CSV file that includes this data, so you decide to import the file into a Cognos Insight workspace for analysis.

Procedure
1. On the Cognos Insight welcome page, click Get Data, and then click Import Data. 2. To import a data file, click Browse. 3. Navigate to the location on your computer where you saved this tutorial and the samples, and then open the following file: Samples_location\Cognos Insight Tutorial and Samples\language\Orders.csv. 4. Expand the Source Details section and note that you can change several fields to specify how your source data is imported. In this example, the default options are appropriate. 5. In the Columns and Data Preview sections, review the way that your source data will be interpreted. When you import data into Cognos Insight, the following rules are automatically applied: v The first column in the source file and the measures appear in a crosstab. The other columns are available as dimensions in the overview area. v Columns of text are added as dimensions. v Columns of numbers are added as measures if they are values. For example, Cognos Insight can interpret a column called Revenue as a measure, and a column called Telephone number as an attribute. v When the data that you are importing into IBM Cognos Insight contains any date that is expressed in a typical format, Cognos Insight will generate a full Gregorian calendar with hierarchies. This enables you to view your data by quarter, year, or month, even when the data you imported did not contain that information. v The first row of data is used as headers for each column. v A total is added to each dimension. v The most logical roll-up type for each of your measures is chosen. For example, if your source data includes a column for Price and a column for Cost, Cognos Insight might choose an Average roll-up type for the Price measure and a Sum roll up-type for the Cost measure. v Caption attributes are preserved. v Business keys are preserved. You decide to create a very simple report with few dimensions. We will add another dimension later in this task. 6. Clear the following check boxes: v Order number v v v v Order size City Ship date Sales representative

7. To review how your data will be imported in more detail, click Advanced. You decide to nest some of your data to make it easier to manipulate in your workspace. 8. To nest the Month data item in the Order date item: from the Month a. In the Target Items column, select the Month level dimension . b. Click Show properties, and then, in the Properties pane, expand the Advanced section. c. In the Owner Dimension list, click Order date. The Month item becomes a child of the Order date dimension and a parent of the Order date level. Tip: You can also drag data items to different positions in the Mapping pane. When you drag items, your cursor changes to display information about where you can drop the item and what it will become if you drop it in that position. 9. To review your data before you import it, click Summary. The Import Messages pane displays the actions that Cognos Insight will perform when you import the data. 10. Click Import. Your data appears in a new Cognos Insight workspace. The canvas includes a crosstab and a column chart, and your data appears in a hierarchy in the content pane. This crosstab has a simple, usable structure: there is only one heading row and one heading column, there are few enough rows and columns that you can see all of your data without scrolling, and the context dimensions enable you to filter that view. The chart helps to give you a spatial visualization of your data that changes as you work with the crosstab. The overview area at the top of the workspace includes the following sections that identify which data items are in each part of your crosstab: v rows v columns v context In this example, your data is displayed in the following areas: v The Product dimension appears in the rows area. v The Orders Measures appears in the columns area. v The Customer dimension, the Country or Region dimension, and theOrder date dimensions appear in the context area. The dimension names in the context area represent the totals for the dimensions, such as Total of Customers. You can click each dimension total to limit the data that is displayed. For example, if your context area includes Total of Customers, you can click that dimension to display only the data for Grand Choix in your workspace. 11. Reorganize your data by dragging dimensions and measures to the different data areas. a. Expand the Orders dimension in the content pane. b. Drag the Product dimension to the rows section of the overview area. c. Drag the Customer dimension to the columns section of the overview area. d. Drag the Country or Region dimension to the context section of the overview area.

e. Drag the Order date dimension to the context section of the overview area. f. Drag the Orders Measures dimension to the context section of the overview area. or from one part of the Tip: You can drag data from the content pane overview area to another to change your crosstab and chart. You decide that you want to add a dimension to your cube so that you can also see which sales representatives were responsible for the most revenue. Click Get Data, and then click Import Dimensions. Click Browse and open the same CSV file at Samples_location\Cognos Insight Tutorial and Samples\language\Orders.csv. In the Columns pane, select only the Sales representative check box, and click Import. The Sales representative dimension appears in the content pane in the All Dimensions list. Drag the Sales representative dimension to be a child of the Orders cube. In the Add Dimensions window, click Share dimensions, and then click OK. The Sales representative dimension appears in the Orders cube. Sharing a dimension means that the same dimension will appear in the list of all dimensions and in the Orders cube. If you clicked Duplicate dimensions, you would create a copy of the Sales representative dimension and add that copy to the Orders cube. Drag the Product dimension to the context section of the overview area and the Sales representative dimension to the rows section of the overview area.

Procedure
1. 2. 3. 4. Click the actions menu icon , and then click Open. Navigate to where you downloaded the samples and double-click Orders.cdd. Click the Orders tab. In the Products widget, click Legend. This hides product information about the Kodiak and Infinity products. You see that orders have dropped sharply in July. You want to further explore customer sales for that month. 5. In the Customers widget, note that there are seven customers listed and that four customers ordered Legend products. They are shown in bold at the top of the list. The chart showing the order size over time is an area chart. For a more effective representation, you want to change it to a bar chart. Before distributing this workspace, the administrator locked the widgets to preserve data integrity and prevent users making accidental changes to the data. However, you need to edit a crosstab, so you must unlock the widgets. 6. Right-click in the chart widget, and then click Unlock widget. To unlock all widgets, place the cursor on the background of the workspace, right-click, and then click Unlock all widgets. A toolbar appears above the chart. , and from the list, click Bar. 7. Click the change chart icon 8. Right-click in the chart, and then click Lock widget. To lock all widgets, place the cursor in the background of the workspace, right-click, and then click Lock all widgets. The bar chart appears. 9. In the Customers widget, click each of the customers who bought Legend products to see sales by month and country or region to help you determine when and where to target your sales campaigns. From exploring the data in this task, you can tell that there may be sales opportunities for the Legend line of products among the three companies that did not order the Legend products. There may also be opportunities to increase sales to your current customers. , and then click Close. 10. Click the actions menu icon When you are prompted to save the changes you made to the sample, click No. Focusing on key aspects of your data is easy to do in Cognos Insight.

Chapter 8. What's next?

In this tutorial, you have learned some basic skills to apply when exploring your data in IBM Cognos Insight. There is much more that you can do in Cognos Insight. For instance, you can create calculations or design your own workspace and add widgets such as tabs, crosstabs, charts, text, images, and web pages. To learn how to perform these tasks, see the IBM Cognos Insight User Guide, which is included with every edition of Cognos Insight. The user guide is available from the Help menu in Cognos Insight. If you have a license for IBM Cognos TM1, IBM Cognos Business Intelligence, or IBM Cognos Express software, you can use Cognos Insight to publish, distribute, and control your workspaces as described in the following sections.

Implement central control of files

You can store a file on a server, but you must have a license for Cognos TM1, Cognos Business Intelligence, or Cognos Express software to perform this activity. For example, a number of people in the Sample Outdoors Company have collaborated on a Human Resources file, which is stored on the company's LAN. As the owner of this file, you decide that it should be stored on your server so that its versioning and security can be controlled by the IT department.

Share a workspace file

You can share a workspace file, but you must have a license for Cognos TM1, IBM Cognos Business Intelligence, or IBM Cognos Express software to perform this activity. You can share the workspace with selected colleagues by using IBM Cognos Connection to control access to the workspace. When the authorized colleagues access the workspace from Cognos Connection, Cognos Insight is automatically installed for them if they do not have it already. For example, as the human resources manager, you have created a workspace showing the effects of a 5% reduction in staff. You want to make the information available but only to staff members within the Human Resources department. To do this, you specify the IBM Cognos system that you want to use and the name and location of the workspace, review the workspace, and share it.

Publish and distribute a workspace

You can publish a workspace to an Cognos TM1 or Cognos Express server that users can access by using Cognos Business Intelligence or Cognos Express, but you must have a license for Cognos TM1, IBM Cognos Business Intelligence, or IBM Cognos Express software to perform this activity. When you publish a workspace, a data source, package, and reports will be created.

For example, you have made multiple changes to a Human Resources file. You want to make the file available to other staff members to review. To do this, you specify an IBM Cognos system, the name of the Cognos application that you want to create, the Cognos Business Intelligence or Cognos Express system that you want to use, and then publish the workspace. It is now available for others to review.
