OBIEE - relabeling dashboard prompt list choice
Hello everyone,
I have a dashboard prompt that has multiple values which are very lengthy. It would be ideal to shrink these values to just "x,y,z" and add a HTML mark up\ static text box on the dashboard to show what x,y,z values actually mean. Is there a way to actually relabel my prompt list? Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Nothing out of the box.
If you really want to do that at a front-end lever only then JS is what you look for. Just be ready to fight and struggle with it. The values of the prompt are loaded dynamically in the background, if you manipulate them difficult to know how the OBIEE code will react and if it will load doubles or whatever.
If unlucky it will also lose the real value and start using the shortened version for filtering, which obviously doesn't work as that short form doesn't exist for real in your data ...
Can't you just add an extra column to your dimension with a short form of the same values? At least it will then be normal standard OBIEE, using the short column in the prompt instead of the long one

Gianni, I think your idea with the extra column just might make it work for me. As always, thanks for the great insights, you've helped me come a long way ever since I have been using OBIEE.
Best,
Andrew
