LPA Systems Confidential11 Cognos Workspace Advanced as an Authoring Studio At a Glance: How the Studios Stack Up Query StudioCognos Workspace AdvancedReport Studio Can only have one queryCan have multiple queries, one per data object (chart, list, etc.). No query explorer or direct manipulation of queries Can have multiple queries. Author has full control. Can reuse across objects. Can join, union, etc. Simple CalculationsComplex calculations with limited function library Complex calculations with robust function library Default is a list reportDefault could be list, crosstab or chart. Can mix and match on report Default could be list, crosstab, chart, map or Active Report. Can mix and match Generated prompts only (no prompt page). Prompts dependent on Framework Model definition Highly customizable Prompt Page. Author can override Framework Model definition Simple Layout (chart and list or crosstab) Complex layout such as dashboards Used largely for Ad-hoc analysisBridges the gap between Query Studio and Report Studio Used for Pixel Perfect Reporting Reports can be edited in Query Studio only. You can convert a report to Report Studio, but once its converted you can’t continue to edit it in Query Studio Reports can be edited in either Cognos Workspace Advanced or Report Studio interchangeably
