"Table Prompts" will work for some OTBI Reports run from the Financial Reporting Center, but I have not been able to create a Table Prompt for a range of dates. Client wants the report to prompt the user to enter "Payment Date Between (user selects from-date from calendar) and (user selects to-date from calendar)".
Prompt works fine when opening from BI Catalog.

It is needed so that users can request reports from one place rather than having to navigate to the Reports section to use table prompts.

Our client has the same business requirement. The ability to have prompts without going into OTBI and searching for the report is important.

Hi there,
Thank you for your idea. I am relocating it to our Transactional Reporting (OTBI) Idea Lab for proper review: https://cloudcustomerconnect.oracle.com/resources/b2df648d2a/summary
Best,

Brendan/Team,
Per current Oracle documentation at https://docs.oracle.com/en/cloud/saas/financials/22c/facsf/overview-of-financial-reporting-center.html#s20033201 :
"Financial Reporting Center provides access to every type of report".
In the list of reports FRC supports OTBI dashboards are listed. My client understandably got the impression you could run dashboards with prompts from FRC. The documentation is very misleading and does not provide any level setting of expectations regarding dashboards in FRC. Most dashboards have prompts so advertising dashboards are supported in FRC creates issues for customers. Can you update Oracle.Com documentation or prioritize this long standing enhancement request that would benefit basically every customer?
thanks, Matthew

@Brendan Doyle - Oracle Analytics Cloud -Oracle this is a much needed requirement, and I would even argue a bug given the documentation that @Matthew2600 references above. Documentation indicates that all reports can be run from Financial Reporting Center, which is inaccurate in this case and also inaccurate in the case of the reports that are housed in Scheduled Processes as well.

We at OPEX Corp also are looking for the same. Just to display the prompt we have to convert this report into BI report.
