Hello There,
Just wondering if there is a way to batch validate reports after migrating from 8.1 to 8.4. Is there a way to see which reports get "broken" due to the migration ? Thanks in advance.Hi,
take a look at the IBM Cognos SDK validation Tool.
This is written to validate the report syntax after an ugrade
I know that the DMR syntax was changed dramaticly from version 8.1 to 8.2… this resulted at the customer site in massive rebuilds of reports… 
The other types of reports will keep on working (in general…)
There’s a free admin tool called MotioPI which can batch validate your reports as well. Here’s the link :
