Cognos Folder Disappeared after Banner Migration

Summary

What to do if Cognos folders are missing.

Body

Issue/Question

  • I’m trying to run a course report for Fall 2021, and it’s only showing up through Summer 2019 as an option. Cognos folder missing.
  • When trying to run Banner Security Name Search Report_v2 or any of the other reports in Public Folders ‎> Banner ‎> USD ‎> Admin & IT ‎> USD ITS ‎> Banner Security Reports, I receive the following error.
    • QE-DEF-0285 The logon failed. CAF-WRN-2082 An error has occurred. Please contact your administrator.

Environment

  • Cognos

Cause

  • User has never logged on to Cognos and selected ADFS which would have transferred security over
  • Once sdbor.edu option went away, their security reverted back to what it was when ADFS was first setup
  • User was using Cognos 10 link instead of 11

Resolution

  1. Confirm you are using Cognos 11
    Note: https://cognos11.sdbor.edu
