In a new dialog window, select a Blank Analysis or Default Analysis.

Default Analysis − A default analysis uses the default analysis for the package as defined in Cognos Connection or the first two dimensions in the data source for the crosstab rows and columns and the first measure in the data source for the crosstab measure.

After selecting, cpck OK. The Analysis Studio starts. The items that you can use in the analysis are psted in the Insertable Objects pane.
