IBM Planning Analytics Cognos TM1: Design and Develop Models in Architect

ExistBI is an IBM Cognos Partner

Course Description

This 5-day IBM Planning Analytics & Cognos TM1 training, Code: P8261G, is designed to teach modelers how to build a basic cube model in TM1 using the Architect tool. Through a series of lectures and hands-on exercises, students will learn how to set up and verify dimensions, cubes, and views, manually enter data into these structures, and define the data that users can see. Students will also learn how to transfer data into the TM1 model, including the use of TurboIntegrator processes. This course is ideal for users who already have models built with Architect and need a high degree of customization, or whose model complexity has evolved past Performance Modeler capabilities.

This training was developed using IBM Cognos TM1 10.2 but is applicable to both IBM Cognos TM1 v10.2 and IBM Planning Analytics.

There were many practical exercises included which I really appreciated because they helped me understand the topics much better, I learned a lot and found the sessions very useful. I’m continuing to review and practice the content this week to consolidate what I’ve learned.
