TM1 Chores are a concept related to the IBM Cognos TM1 solution. A chore is a schedule that contains a batch of processes that is executed to run on a specific time period.

Elements in TM1 are used to define data in cubes. Every element has a type associated with it: simple(number), string and consolidated element. A simple element is the lowest level in the hierarchy. A string element contains string information. An element that has aggregated data in a cube is a consolidated element.The format of the attributes of the elements can be modified by the developer.

The purpose of Business Intelligence is the gathering of data about a specific business process and to use this information to create a tactical and competitive benefit. Business Intelligence typically can be split into two different parts, the ETL & data warehouse part and the enduser reporting & analysis part. In the ETL part, data is extracted out of different sources and loaded into a data warehouse. In the reporting part, the data is fetched from a data warehouse and processed in reports and analysis.
