Identify or create the required users for any InForm study

Before you start the Cognos upgrade, make sure that the following users exist so that you can log in to the Cognos Analytics 11 Reporting server:

• A Cognos user who is a System Administrator.
• An InForm study user who is assigned to a rights group that includes the Reports right and is also a member of the Directory Administrators reporting group.
• An InForm study user (pfreportinguser) who is a member of the Sponsor Users and Publishers reporting group.

  The pfreportinguser will be used for the first time by the pfmodelupdater service. The pfmodelupdater service uses the pfreportinguser user name and password to generate the clinical model.

• If necessary, configure the pfreportinguser account.

  For more information, see the Installation Guide.

• Change the password for the pfreportinguser using both the user interface and the pfadmin command.
  • Log in to the InForm application and change the password for the pfreportinguser using the user interface.
  • Change the password for the pfreportinguser using the following command:

    pfadmin setserver pfreportinguserpw <studyname>

    When prompted, enter the password for the pfreportinguser.

    Note:

    Make sure that the password you enter through the user interface and the command line match.
• Reset the password for the Reporting CAP Admin database using the following command:

  pfadmin setserver reportingcapadminpw<studyname>

  When prompted, enter the password for the reportingcapadmin user.

  Note:

  For Oracle-hosted single sign-on (SSO) studies, run pfadmin setserver trialorgid <studyname> <study_orgid> to set the SSO OrgID for the study.
