Hi Friends, actually to covert the Impromptu reports to reportnet we can only convert the impromptu catalog into FM model using some code in DOS.Its just a single line code which converts the IMP catalog to FM model as .XML file.Then just publish it to reportnet and create reports.I dont think we can directly convert impropmtu into reportnet reports.

Hi Guyz,

In order to convert the Impromptu catalog into FM model these are the steps.

This is done using cer2 directory in your computer where cognos is installed maybe in programfiles/cognos/cer2

U have to get to the directory where cer2 is installed for ex

c:> cd cer2

c:cer2> cd bin

At this prompt type th following code

Suppose if your catalog file name is Gotest.cat (It shhud be present in cer2 dir)

c:cer2bin>impcat2xml c:cer2Gotest.cat c:cer2gotest.xml

Go to FM model and then give the name for new project

select import source as Cognos Impromptu and select the Gotest.xml

Then publish the pacakge to reportnet start creating reports
