Upgrade Your Framework Manager Models Upgrade Your Framework Manager Models If you use modified versions of the standard Deltek Framework Manager models, you may need to run scripts to upgrade those models to use any updated reports or new query subjects in this release. You can upgrade to as many as three different models with their separate automated processes to run the scripts. These three models are: CER (Costpoint Enterprise Reporting) CPSOX (Costpoint Sarbanes-Oxley) TESOX (Time and Expense Sarbanes-Oxley) Aside from the automated process, you can also run the scripts manually. The automated and manual methods are described below. Automated Process to Run the Scripts to Upgrade Modified Models Upgrading your modified models involves running a set of scripts against each model to upgrade them to Costpoint Enterprise Reporting 7.0.1. To upgrade a modified model, complete the following steps: 1. In your install location, locate the ModelChangeUtility folder. The default location is C:\Deltek\CostpointEnterpriseReporting\701\ModelChangeUtility. 2. Locate the visual basic (VB) script to update the settings.ini file for the model. The filename of the VB script depends on the model that you want to upgrade. The location of the VB script are the listed in the table along with the settings.ini source file that each updates. Models Location VB script Script updates CER (CP Area) C:\Deltek\CostpointEnterprise Reporting\701\ModelChange Utility\cp CPModelChange.vbs This script updates the cpsettings.ini file that is used to upgrade the Costpoint area in the CER model. CER (TE Area for MS SQL users) C:\Deltek\CostpointEnterprise Reporting\701\ModelChange Utility\te\MSS \70\ModelCha ngeutility\te\mss TEModelChange.vbs This script updates the tesettings.ini file that is used to upgrade the Time and Expense area in the CER model that runs on MS SQL. 26
Upgrade Your Framework Manager Models Models Location VB script Script updates CER (TE Area for Oracle users) C:\Deltek\CostpointEnterprise Reporting\701\ModelChange Utility\te\ORA TEModelChange.vbs This script updates the tesettings.ini file that is used to upgrade the Time and Expense area in the CER model that runs on Oracle. CP SOX C:\Deltek\CostpointEnterprise Reporting\701\ModelChange Utility\sox CPModelChange.vbs This script updates the CPsoxsettings.ini file that is used to upgrade the CP SOX model. TE SOX C:\Deltek\CostpointEnterprise Reporting\701\ModelChange Utility\sox TEModelChange.vbs This script updates the TEsoxsettings.ini file that is used to upgrade the TE SOX model. CER (TE Area) C:\Deltek\CostpointEnterprise Reporting\701\ModelChange Utility\tecastfix TECASTFix.vbs This script updates the TECASTFIXsetting s.ini file. It is used to fix the datetime fields in the Time and Expense area of the CER model. The TECASTFix script removes the time component of the datetime fields and prevents the occurrence of errors when you generate the Time and Expense reports. B&P C:\Deltek\CostpointEnterprise Reporting\701\ModelChange Utility\b&pv70tov701 BPModelChange.vbs The script updates the bpsettings.ini file that is used to upgrade the Budgeting & Planning model to CER 7.0.1. 27

Locate the RunScripts.vbs in the model change scripts folder. 7. Run the RunScripts.vbs file. It reads the settings.ini file and generates and runs a run.bat file that upgrades the model to Costpoint Enterprise Reporting 7.0.1. Wait for the DOS console to finish, and then check your model s log files for the changes. 8. If everything is in order, republish the upgraded models to Cognos Connection. If you upgraded to Cognos 10.2 during this installation process, be sure that you do the following when you publish the packages: Select the Enable model versioning check box and enter 1 in Number of model versions to retain. Select the Delete all previous model versions check box. Select the Verify the package before publishing check box to check for errors. If both a Cognos 8 version and a Cognos 10 version of a model exist in your Cognos 10.2 environment, errors can occur when you run the reports. Setting the versioning option as described and deleting previous model versions will eliminate this problem Alternative: Manually Upgrade Your Costpoint Enterprise Reporting Model If the automated model upgrade fails due to incompatibility of customizations with the Costpoint Enterprise Reporting 7.0.1 upgrade, you can manually upgrade your modified Framework Manager models. Script files are provided to upgrade the models to Costpoint Enterprise Reporting 7.0.1. The files are located in this folder: C:\Deltek\CostpointEnterpriseReporting\701\ModelChangeUtility\xxx\yyy where xxx can be: cp Costpoint te Time and Expense sox Sarbanes-Oxley tecastfix used in fixing the cast date and time function in Time and Expense reports b&pv70tov701 used in upgrading the CER for Budgeting & Planning model to CER 7.0.1. CPv70tov701 used in upgrading the CP area in the CER model from CP 6.1. SP2 to CP 7.0.1 29
Upgrade Your Framework Manager Models and yyy can be: ModelChangeScripts for cp, te, sox, tecastfix, b&pv70tov701, or CPv70tov701 ModelChangeScripts-CP for CP SOX ModelChangeScripts-TE for TE SOX The ModelChangeUtility folder is only available in the Cognos BI server. To see the list of change scripts per model, see section Change Scripts and Model Listing on page 31. You can manually upgrade your Framework Manager models in either of two ways: Run the scripts that Deltek has provided against the model you have customized. (Note that these scripts must be run in the proper order.) Or Run your customization log file against the standard Costpoint Enterprise Reporting 7.0.1 Framework Manager models. To run scripts manually against a model, complete the following steps: 1. Run Framework Manager (for example, Start» Programs» IBM Cognos 10» IBM Cognos Framework Manager). 2. Load the model you want to run the scripts against by clicking the Open icon ( ) and selecting the model s CPF file. 3. After the model is loaded, select Run Script on the Project menu and browse for the script you want to run. 4. Select the script with the 001 suffix and click OK. A dialog box displays a list of actions the script will perform on the model. If any of the steps fail, you are informed in Transaction details, and you can edit the script parameters in case of conflict. Be aware that changing these parameters may impact other scripts dependent on it. 5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each of the remaining scripts. Run them in order based on the sequence number in the file name. 6. To complete the Costpoint Enterprise Reporting 7.0.1 upgrade, republish the updated model packages to Cognos Connection: In the left pane of the Framework Manager, expand the FM Model» Packages node. Right-click each package listed and click Publish Packages. Apply the same parameters/settings/configuration your company used when initially publishing these packages. 30
Upgrade Your Framework Manager Models If you upgraded to Cognos 10.2 during this installation process, be sure that you do the following when you publish the packages: Select the Enable model versioning check box and enter 1 in Number of model versions to retain. Select the Delete all previous model versions check box. Select the Verify the package before publishing check box to check for errors. If both a Cognos 8 version and a Cognos 10 version of a model exist in your Cognos 10.2 environment, errors can occur when you run the reports. Setting the versioning option as described and deleting previous model versions will eliminate this problem Change Scripts and Model Listing The succeeding tables show the lists of change scripts to run if you want to upgrade your existing Framework Manager models.

Deploying Reports to a Location Other Than the Standard Location Deploying Reports to a Location Other Than the Standard Location Deltek does not recommend deploying reports to any location other than the standard location because of the danger of breaking links to packages, common library reports, and drill reports. However, if you choose to deploy reports to a different location, note the following: To minimize the impact on the links, first deploy the reports to the standard directory under Public Folders, and then cut and paste the reports to move them to the desired location. This approach preserves the links to the packages and Common Library reports. However, it breaks the links to drill reports because the main (source) reports and drill (target) reports are not located in the same folders. After you relocate the reports, you must use Report Studio to redefine the links between the main reports and the drill reports. That procedure is outlined below. Redefine Links to Drill Reports To redefine the links to drill reports, complete the following steps: 1. Open the main report in Report Studio. 2. Click on the toolbar to unlock the report so you can modify it. 3. On the report page, click the drill-through link (displayed as blue underlined text) and then click on the toolbar. 4. On the Drill-Through Definitions dialog box, click the first item in the Drill-Through Definitions list. The Report field displays the drill report. 5. Click next to Report and browse to the new deployment location. 6. Select the drill report in that location, and click Open. 7. If the Drill-Through Definition list contains more than one item, repeat steps 4 6 for each one. 8. Click OK to close the Drill-Through Definitions dialog box. 9. Save the report. 35
Hiding and Displaying the Common Library Reports Hiding and Displaying the Common Library Reports Some Costpoint Enterprise Reporting report packages include a Common Library report. A Common Library report is not an actual report that you are intended to run. Rather, it contains elements, such as Deltek logos, prompt tabs, product version number, and so on, that are used in common by all reports. By default, the Common Library reports display upon import. However, if you need to make one of the Common Library reports hidden, use the procedure below. Even if the Common Library reports are hidden, they are still visible to users with Show hidden entries selected in their preferences, though the icon for the report is dimmed. System administrators may want this option selected. However, for those users who should never see these reports, it is recommended that you make sure Show hidden entries is not selected and that you do not give them access to change this preferences option. Make a Common Library Report Hidden in Cognos Connection To make a Common Library report hidden in Cognos Connection, complete the following steps: 1. If the Common Library report is not visible in the list of reports, click on the toolbar and click My Preferences on the menu. Select the Show hidden entries check box and click OK. If the Show hidden entries check box is not displayed, you do not have the necessary access rights to change it. 2. In Cognos Connection, locate the reporting package that contains the Common Library report For Costpoint Enterprise Reporting, the Common Library report is in the Basic Information CP package. For Costpoint Enterprise Reporting for Budgeting and Planning, it is in the Project Budgets package. For Costpoint Enterprise Reporting for HR and Payroll, it is in the Costpoint Enterprise Reporting for HR and Payroll folder. For Costpoint Enterprise Reporting for Costpoint Project Manufacturing, it is in the Costpoint Enterprise Reporting for Project Manufacturing folder. 3. Under Actions for the Common Library report, click More. 4. Under Available actions, click Set properties ( ). 5. Select the Hide this entry check box, and click OK. 6. To make the Common Library report visible again, repeat this procedure and clear the Hide this entry check box in step 5. 36
