Student Data & Dashboards | Financial Data & Dashboards | Access & Cognos Decommissioning
Knowing which dashboard to use when delivering a report or which data source(s) to select when creating a new dashboard can be overwhelming, especially when the sources contain similar data with nuanced differences. We’ve included comparisons of Enterprise Resources and examples of key business questions answered within the resource.
If an Enterprise Dashboard answers your business question(s), you can use the dashboard filters and save a custom view to pre-package common report requests. You shouldn’t need to create copies of Enterprise Dashboards or design custom dashboards frequently. If you are spending significant time copying, editing, or building custom dashboards, reach out to see if we can help!
It is also important to note that the Enterprise Dashboards and Data Sources were designed with the intention of “one size fits most.” To change the Enterprise Dashboard to “one size fits me,” see the Catalogs for Student, Financial, and HR Data Sources. These pages contain details, important notes, and a listing of the fields you can add, subtract, and finagle. Then use Tableau Web Edit to create your own spin on an Enterprise Dashboard.
The Tableau Dashboards and Data Sources will eventually replace Cognos. Cognos will be fully decommissioned by June 30, 2025. We are phasing out the Cognos data packages 2-4 months after the correlating Tableau resources are released, depending on the University’s business needs. We will ensure you have access to the data you need!
To smooth the transition from Cognos to Tableau, please review the tables below. The Enterprise Resources are listed with their correlating Cognos Packages that previously served similar use cases.

ACCESS & COGNOS DECOMMISSIONING
After a Cognos Package is decommissioned, you will not be able to run a report that used the package as its data source. Instead, you will receive an error message similar to the one pictured below. In this case, you should review the correlating Enterprise Dashboard and Data Source to ensure you are able to recreate report criteria.
...
If you had access to a Cognos data package, you should have access to the correlating Tableau Enterprise Resource. Examples and links for requesting Student Mart access, and therefore access to the the Student related Tableau Enterprise Resources, are available in the accordion menus below.
