OBIEE12c Report Download Requiremen
Hi Guru's
Need your support to implement the following client requirement.
Requirement Details :
While downloading any report in OBIEE tool specified formats(like PDF, HTML, Excel, ect.), it should download as Currentdate_ReportName.
Current Date should be appended as suffix to Report name.
Example : If report name is “XXXX” then while downloading it should download as
20180701_XXXX
I have tried all possible ways to achieve this but OBIEE has a rigid default of downloading report (to any format) as per its saved name.
Please help me in case if you have any clue in that.
Best Regards,
Ritesh

Are you working for the same client as this guy? Adding system date to dashboard/report
This literally has been discussed yesterday.

Yes, He just discussed the same matter. He suggested me to close the thread as its not possible when OBIEE12c hosted on Linux machine.
Has the same thing discussed with him?
Best Regards,

Best you read this: https://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/dynamic-delivery-file-naming
BI Publisher has all those options. OBI is an *analytical platform* and neither a data dump tool nor an export vehicle

Hello,
You can refer the below link, but again its a lot of work and customization.
Vishal's blog: OBIEE Hack: Putting prompts in file names
This just gives you a way. You can use hidden prompts and the Presentation variables defined there instead of actual prompts.
But, again remember the below...
Hope this helps...

A way which may break with any minor OBIEE update, if you want a reliable solution use BIP,UTL_FILE,APEX... and many more options better then OBIEE

Upgrades are always a killer. Any solution should be as portable across versions as possible. Granted sometimes it isn't possible but decisions should be taken based on all aspects including future costs and efforts.
