COGNOS: Get the value of a WT Preference

Hi All-

 

Has anyone ever tried to get the value of a Windchill preference and using it for calculations in a Cognos report.

 

The use case is:

 

- We have a Need Date for a Change Request (CR);

- Engineering (ENG) needs to finish a number of days before the CR Need Date;

- In WT there is a Preference containing the number of days needed by ENG;

- The calculated Engineering Need Date would then become CR Need Date - ENG Days

- Engineering Need Date would be shown in the report alongside the CR Need Date.

 

I can imagine this is not an uncommon scenario and wonder if anyone has ever done this (and how).

 

All help greatly appreciated!

 

Groeten,

-Erik
