*Your security strategy concentrates on three main areas:
• Authentication – who are your users? Your information should
be readily accessible but only to the right people.
• Authorization – once they are authenticated, what do your
users have permission to access? Each person or group of
people may need to know different things, even as detailed
as the column or row of data.
• Encryption – how do you protect both data transmissions
and storage?

*You can use the Rank function when you want to sort out the
data.....
for example: when you want to display the nth highest
employee....then you can use Rank function also find out...

* Content Manager
provides a simple solution for managing access to corporate
content in a web environment via the upfront component.
Upfront was not really designed as a complete web site /
portal content management solution (a point I find myself
making again and again to clients for whom I implement the
Cognos BI Suite). Although it serves quite ably to allow you
to flexibly customize, personalize, publish and manage
content (whether BI-related or not), within the realm of the
corporate intranet and elsewhere, it is limited with regard
to sophisticated site component management (HTML and other
markup languages, text, hyperlinks, graphics, images and so
forth). The provision in its design to allow for the
publication of, or linking to / from, non-Cognos documents
allows for versatility that can be highly useful, and
Upfront often meets the business requirements of many
organizations right out of the box.

* Cognos content store
It stores the package information ....through cognos
connection, report authors connect to content store and
generate the reports...

Answer / abd hfz

Rank is a function which arrange the data in ascending order
by giving no to them similar to s.no. but skips no for the
same data.
e.g.
Name Revenue
abc 1000
pqr 2000
mno 2000
xyz 3000

If we have Rank(Revenue) then O/P will be,

Rank(Rev) Name Revenue
1 abc 1000
2 pqr 2000
2 mno 2000
4 xyz 3000

My problem is as follows I made two pages of the portal; in the first page i have two reports and from one of these i would like to communicate in some way (i.e drill- through?) with the second page that contains four reports (prompt value [product] and three chart [sales revenue, sales quantity and budget]). Particularly I would like to communicate with the report that contains the prompt, passing the Product. How can i drill from the first page of the portal to the second page ? More generally, is it possible to move from one page, containing 2 report, to another page with 4 report, through a drill-through or any other mechanism? Thank in advance.
