Answer / shweta

. Shortcuts are used in the business view when there is an
overlap between user group and you want to include the Meta
data in more than one folder. With shortcuts we can have
multiple references to an object.

Why do we create shortcuts in framework manager..

Answer / piggynet

A shortcut is a pointer to an object, such as a
relationship, a dimension, a query subject, or a folder. We
recommend that you use shortcuts in the business view when
there is an overlap between user groups and you want to
include the metadata in more than one folder. With
shortcuts, you can have multiple references to an object.

For example, you create folders named Orders, Products, and
Customers. If you want both Orders and Customers to contain
the same dimension, you must create a shortcut to the
dimension and add it to both folders.

I need your kind support. I have more than 6yrs of exp in s/w industry. I have worked on some DW technologies which are out dated. For almost 1 year I was on bench.During this bench period I learnt cognos on my own using online docs. Hence I am alligned to a project few months ago to work on cognos. Unfortunately after joining this project I did not get opportunity to work on cognos. I am working on different things apart from cognos. I should get job in another company. Otherwise I am gone. I am confident enough to get job on Cognos in another company. Please let me know is it possible to work on Cognos at lead position (as my current position is at lead level) without having real time experience. Your response is highly appreciated and I will be grateful to you. Thanks in advance Ganesh
