Presentation variable in dashboard prompt
663424Nov 28 2009 — edited Nov 29 2009Hi All
I have a report on a dashboard page which navigates to another report on a different dashboard page (on the same dashboard). The
first dashboard page has a prompt which needs to be passed as a filter to the navigated report i.e. Report1 on dashpage1 has Level1 prompt
whose value must be passed to Report2 on dashpage2 which has Level2 (hence Report2 must show Level2 values for the passed Level1).
1) I tried setting prompt1 on first page scope to Dashboard but it didn't help.
2) I am trying to set a presentation variable 'level1_val' in the prompt1 and then in report2 say Level2 = @{level1_val} in Answers (filter->add presentation variable, I did not provide a default value). But when I navigate, Report2 shows no results. On adding the filter value, I noticed that the condition in Report2 is Level1=level1_val (Its taking level1_val presentation variable as a string and matching it to the Level1 prompt value). Level1 prompt value is a string. Is there a format say '@{level1_val}' that I should use in the column filter (I've tried this too)?
Thanks
