80% of time spent in analytics is “wrangling” the data (Sloan Management / IBM IBV study). That’s a significant amount of time! This is why we have been working hard to make data prep easy and simple for all of our Cognos users to ensure they have a faster time to insight.

Next up in the THINK 2019 Recap series is the session on the enhanced features of Data Modules, our web-based data prep tool in Cognos Analytics. It covers “Everything You Need to Know about Data Preparation and Modeling with IBM Cognos Analytics”. This session was delivered by our modeling offering manager, @Michael McGeein.

Watch the video below to see how the Cognos Analytics 11.1 release optimizes data preparation with recommendations on relationships, relative dates (month to date, quarter to date(QTD), prior QTD), ease of use (expression editor, SQL based tables, format, filter) and much more!
