Include the supporting additional column in the OTBI Infolet/Dashboard Parameter

Organization Name (Required - If you are an Oracle Partner, please provide the organization you are logging the idea on behalf of): TAYLOR TECHNOLOGY SERVICES INC
Description (Required):
We are trying to add a additional only view column in the filter prompt to provide more information for the values.
In short intention is to modify the parameter prompt of the OTBI Infolet/Dashboard to show additional related details to identify the value.
For eg. Lets suppose we created an OTBI Report/Infolet which have Customer Names as a parameter. Now searching for the Customer if we have multiple identical customer name then it would create a confusion for the user. For like below -
Customer 1 - Allegra Inc
Customer 2 - Allegra Corp
Customer 3 - Allegra Limited
But in the same case, when we search the customer like in Manage Order we would have Additional Detail as Customer Registry ID for the Customer search as below -
Customer 1 - Allegra Inc Customer Registry ID >1010901
Customer 2 - Allegra Corp Customer Registry ID >7894191
Customer 3 - Allegra Limited Customer Registry ID >6541818
So this would at times it would help the customer to identify the Customer. Not particular Customer Registry ID but we could have other supporting column detail when we would search for a field in the parameter prompt.
For example, in Manage Order, if we try to filter the Customer by putting operator as Equals and Search we get Customer Registry column which comes with the Customer name after search is completed .
So we need to have an additional information column in the filter.
Use Case and Business Need (Required):
The user intends to have supporting additional column detail when searching for Parameter prompt for an OTBI Infolet/Report/Dashboard
