Publish Reports to the Portal

You can publish reports from PowerPlay Web Explorer or PowerPlay Web Viewer to one of the following portals designated by your administrator:

• Upfront

Upfront is the Web interface to IBM Cognos enterprise applications and other Web data. In PowerPlay Web you can save your report as a primary NewsItem in an Upfront NewsBox. However, in Upfront, a primary NewsItem can be deleted by other users who have access to the NewsBox. To prevent this, you can publish it as a NewsItem to a personal NewsBox and then create a linked NewsItem in another NewsBox by copying the NewsItem to that NewsBox.

For more information about Upfront, see the Web Portal User Guide.

• IBM Cognos Connection

IBM Cognos Connection is the portal to IBM Cognos ReportNet, the Web-based reporting solution. The IBM Cognos Connection portal provides a single access point to all corporate data available in ReportNet.

For more information about IBM Cognos ReportNet, see your administrator.
