Description

For EPM data sources the POV needs to be set in the Filter

Currently the Limit Values By is set to AUTO and every dimension added needs to have the option changed to NONE

For EPM data sources it would be nice to have that be defaulted to NONE

 

 

Use Case and Business Need

This would make the user experience much easier than having to change that property on every dimension in the filter

    I was just dealing with this particular issue while creating my project and have to manually update all filters to 'Set Limit Values By' to None. This manual effort has been the norm in my user community which really cuts in to productive time. I suggest to reverse the filters' default set values to None (for all data sources) and let us change to Auto whenever applicable.

    Having the default for all prompts to limit by None would be consistent with OBIEE dashboard prompts.
    I also wonder about the performance of populating limited prompts that come from multiple dimensions in a star schema. Would have to join through fact, right?

  • Currently we are working on adding an option to change the default for the entire bar at once which will be the project default.

    Gabby, do you have an update on this option?
