On the Metadata tab, specify the UNICOM Intelligence metadata and analysis variable (dimension and measure questions) information that is used when publishing data.
All questions are published if none are selected.

Apply
Click this button to apply the selected metadata options.
Analysis variables
The table displays all variables for the selected UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer - Server Admin project. Whether the default type is set for each question or not depends on the DPM Property SetDefaultForQuestions (the default value is true) for the first publish. During subsequent publishing, question selection is set according to the latest status, which might be set by different user.
Use Restore Defaults or Clear All to control the default type that is set for each question.
Derived questions, or other questions where HasCaseData is set as false, are not listed when selecting questions.
Scroll through the available UNICOM Intelligence variables and determine whether they should be categorized as Cognos dimension variables or measure variables.
▪In Cognos, a dimension is the short form of regular dimension, which represents descriptive data that provides context for data modeled in measure dimensions.
▪In Cognos, a measure is short form for measure dimensions, which represent the quantitative data described by regular dimensions.
The following table shows the UNICOM Intelligence Data Type for common questions.
