Table

Use a table to show detailed information from your database, such as product lists and customer lists. A table shows data in rows and columns. Each column shows all the values for a data item in the database or a calculation based on data items in the database.

For example, this table shows the course cost for each department.

Adding more columns to a table

You can focus on points that are of interest to you by adding more data to the visualization.

  1. Drag another column to the field where you want additional data.
  2. Drop the column beside the existing column.
Starting from Cognos Analytics version 11.1.4, you can drag data from the Selected sources pane and insert data in a column/row or drop the data on top of an existing data to replace it.
