** DeveloperWorks - ProvenPractice ** How to Import Journals

Question & Answer


Question

Customer would like some 'best practice' guidelines on how to import Journals into IBM Cognos Controller.

Cause

Cognos Controller provides a means for importing journals.

  • You can access this function under "Transfer/External Data/Import General Journals".

Once the information is moved into Cognos Controller (via generalised interface) it is treated like any other data.
  • For example, you can make changes to the data if it contains mistakes.

Answer

See the Proven Practice guide "Importing of Journals" (attached to this Technote).
