Sharing Results

After you complete your analysis and identify the data that best answers your business question, you may need to share that information with colleagues.

A saved analysis can be viewed, printed, scheduled, or enhanced further in Cognos Report Studio like any other report.

If you have the necessary permissions, you can open your analysis in Report Studio to enhance an analysis or deliver it to different people.
