Apologies if this has already been covered somewhere... I searched and can't find the topic covered yet.
I've been under the impression for a long time that one could configure a Universe such that it would require a prompt on a dimension whenever that Universe was run, regardless of the tool or report. For example, you could configure an eFashion Universe such that any report or analysis built against it (Webi, Crustal, Design Studio, Lumira, PowerQuery... whatever) would trigger a prompt, perhaps on Year or State. The idea is that at the Universe you could prevent developers and self-service users from building "Select All" reports.
However, even with the use of LOV flags in the Data Foundation and Business Layer (e.g. "Force users to filter values before use"), I can't figure out how to make it work.
So, I have two questions...
Thanks,
Josh
Hi...
Following is the syntax for the function.
@Prompt('message','type',[lov],Mono|Multi,free|constrained|primary_key,persistent|not_persistent,[default_values])
The following are simple examples of @Prompt syntax.
Minimal use of the @Prompt function:
@Prompt('Displayed text ','A',,,)
Using the @Prompt with a LOV without default values:
@Prompt('Displayed text ','A',{'Paris','London','Madrid'},,)
Using the @Prompt with a LOV and one default value:
@Prompt('Displayed text ','A',{'Paris','London','Madrid'},,,,{'Paris'})
2 : If so, how?
select @Prompt editor from the shortcut menu.
