Using the Rules Tracer
IBM® Cognos® TM1® provides
a tool called the Rules Tracer to assist in the development
and debugging of rules.
The Rules Tracer lets you:
- Trace calculations, to ensure that rules are being assigned to selected cells and calculated properly, or to trace the path of consolidated elements
- Trace feeders, to ensure that selected leaf cells are feeding other cells properly
- Check feeders, to ensure that the children of a selected consolidated cell are fed properly
The Rules Tracer is available only in the Cube Viewer. You cannot trace rules from the In-Spreadsheet Browser or slice worksheets.
