Before You Begin

You must be running the correct versions of Costpoint, Deltek Time and Expense, and Deltek Costpoint Planning to properly run the reports discussed in this guide.

To use the reports discussed in this guide, you must be running at least one of the following:

  • Deltek Costpoint 8.1
  • Deltek Shop Floor Time 1.3 or 2.0

Also, Costpoint Business Intelligence 8.1 leverages Cognos Analytics 11.1.x

If you use Costpoint 7.0.1 or 7.1.1 and want to upgrade to Cognos Analytics 11.1.x, it is possible to upgrade your Cognos application and remain on a Costpoint 7.0.1 or 7.1.1 compatible CER version. However, Costpoint Business Intelligence 8.0 only supports Costpoint 8.0 or higher. The most recent Costpoint Enterprise Reporting version with Costpoint 7.0.1 compatibility is CER 7.1.4. The most recent version with Costpoint 7.1.1 is CER 7.2.3.

Attention: For more information, see Deltek Costpoint Business Intelligence 8.1 Installation Guide for New Users or the Deltek Costpoint Business Intelligence 8.1 Installation Guide for Users Upgrading from an Earlier Version.
