what is fact less fact give me proper example?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
A fact-less fact is a fact table in which only primary keys
of the dimension tables are present as foreign keys but no
measure/fact columns.
There are 2 types of factless fact table:
a) Event Tracking Tables: A table that records an event.
Example: A table that records student attendance. It
contains date_key, student_key, teacher_key, course_key,
without any measure section.
b) Coverage Tables: A table to answer questions about
things that didn't happen.
Example: An ordinary fact table cannot answer questions
like "Which products were on promotion that did not sell?",
because it contains only the records of products that did
sell. A table contains date_key, product_key, store_key,
promo_key and without measure section is used to answer
such questions.

Hi, I have Cognos 7.0 Impromptu reports and these reports have been created with the Mainframe datasource. Now the business needs these reports should be upgraded but with Oracle datasource. So what's the idea, first we should migrate these reports into ReportNet? then in that case what we will do with the Impromptu Catalog? Second, suppose we need to migrate these reports into Cognos 8 (may be 8.4) then how we will do that? do we need to create a FM Model for these reports. Please advice!
