How to set Default to in Dashboard Prompt from presentation variable value

Hi all BI Gurus,
I am trying to come out from my problem from last two days and I am not able to find the solution.
Here is my problem.
I am having two dashboard pages in one dashboard. Both pages contains dashboard prompt. Now from the first page’s prompt I had set a presentation variable and I want to use that presentation variable’s value in to prompt’ s default value which is used in my second dashboard page.
I am hoping I can do that with Server variable or variable expression, but don’t know the proper way. I tried a lot with both but not able to find the solution.
Could any help me please?
Regards,

Hi David,
Thanks for replying. I really appreciate it.
Yes I am using the same column.
Let me provide you more details regarding my problem,
I am having one dashboard prompt for gender and it's default value is 'Female' so I am assigning that value in to presentation variable PV_GENDER with set variable option in prompt.
Now in my second prompt which I am using on second page of same dashboard, I am trying to assign that value 'Female' ( or the one that user had selected ) with the help or that presentation variable PV_GENDER in Default to. I tried all options (e.g. Variable Expression, Server Variable, SQL Result ) but I am not able to get that value.
If you need more detail just let me know.
Once again thanks for replying.

How to Get Default Dates in Dashboard Prompts

i just want to select two dates by default on the Dashboard prompts.
Those two dates would be last day of the last quarter and last day of this quarter.
Any body please give me the select statement to pick those two dates(last day of last quarter and last day of current quarter)by default on the dashboard prompts?
Thanks in Advance

If you just want it once, then in the dashboard prompt "Default to" window, select "SQL Results" and enter this:
SELECT CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN table.column ELSE TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_QUARTER,0, TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_DAY, DAYOFMONTH(CURRENT_DATE)*-1,CURRENT_DATE)) END FROM "subject area"
UNION
SELECT CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN table.column ELSE TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_QUARTER,1,TIMESTAMPADD(SQL_TSI_DAY, DAYOFMONTH(CURRENT_DATE)*-1,CURRENT_DATE)) END FROM "subject area" This will give as the default, the last day of the last quarter and the last day of the current quarter in your multi-select prompt.

Can I pass parameters from a dashboard via a dashboard prompt and presentation variable to publisher report based on a data model with select statements in OBIEE 11g ?

I have a publisher 11g (v 11.1.1.7) report with a single parameter. The report is based on a data model not a subject area. I created a dashboard put a dashboard prompt and link to the report in separate section on the same page. The dashboard prompt sets a presentation variable named the same as the parameter in the report.
The problem was when I created the dashboard prompt, it forced me to select a subject area which I did (though did not want to) and then I created both a column and variable prompts. But clicking on the
report link completely ignored the value that I thought would be passed in the presentation variable to the report.
Side note : My report uses a pdf template for its layout where I have mapped the columns names from my data model to the form fields on the pdf form. I noticed that if I create a publisher report based on a subject area, then I do not have the choice to choose a PDF as a template type for my layout. (I only see BI Publisher Template as a choice).
I see some documentation online that suggest it could be done in 10g.
Thanks

Ok,
I just tried that and it still doesn't pass anything to the prompt.
I changed the prompt to an edit field and I made the following weblink but when i click the link from an account it doesn't put anything in the prompt and all data for all accounts is shown.
This is the URL maybe I messed something up...

Default width for dashboard prompts

Hi:
Does anyone know how to set the default width for dashboard prompts? Is there an XML file that contains this value?
Thanks.

During creation of prompts you can set additional format just check available icon on that layout. If it is 10g just look at above the heading 'Dashboard Prompt'.
Pls mark correct/helpful if helps

How to pass values to dashboard prompts from external applications

Any idea is well appreciated.
How can I pass values of dashboard prompts from external applications to the dashboard prompts so that the dashboard is prefiltered based on values sent by external applications.
Thanks in Advance!
Kris

Kris,
i am able to change the session variable and able to call the dashboard from external app, but i identified prompt value not changing. but Finally i am able to found a workaround for you.
Use the following URL and it explained here
http://localhost:9704/analytics/saw.dll?Dashboard&nquser=Administrator&nqpassword=Administrator&PortalPath=/shared/abcd/_portal/dash1&Options=rmf&DSN=madan
PortalPath is your dashboard location. /shared/abcd is folder where i saved dashboards. dash1 is my dashboard name.
internally this dashboard includes many reports that uses the session variable. after doing above this i am able to update the session variable to the value i have given in URL, DSN=value.
You may observer here that calls the dashboard and passes the value but its not updating the prompt value. so workaround for this is edit your prompt,
change the Default to - SQL Results and place the sql
SELECT CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN Markets.Region ELSE VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.DSN) END saw_0 FROM Paint
again here Market.Region is column from presentation layer and Paint is subject area. After doing this step, your prompt always shows value in the session varible as default.
Now include reports and dashboard prompt in the dashboard and run this url from external applicaitons.
http://localhost:9704/analytics/saw.dll?Dashboard&nquser=Administrator&nqpassword=Administrator&PortalPath=/shared/abcd/_portal/dash1&Options=rmf&DSN=madan
it worked for me and blog this soon. if it works for you mark the question as answered and mark my replies as correct.
thanks

How to set default reject reason in VA01 (create sales order)

Hi
Everybody can tell me how to set default reject reason for item in sales order.
in our sap system there are a default reject reason as '90'. We want to set it as "Null".
Thanks
Henry

Hi,
Assigning a default Reason for Rejection is not in standard SAP. I am sure there is some enhancement/user exit which updates the reason for rejection.
Please get the help of an ABAPer, create the sales order in debugging mode and he will find out the logic behind the automatic reason for rejection.
Before that you can find the exits in the include MV45AFZZ for any code related to this.
Hope this helps

This information initial value is (maybe) stored in Windows Register (register.exe) at Software\SAP\SAPGUI Front\SAP Frontend Server\Filetransfer -> PathDownload, you can read it thru class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES method GET_UPLOAD_DOWNLOAD_PATH and update it thru method REGISTRY_SET_VALUE.

How to set default User preferences in Analyzer for all users

How to set default User preferences in Analyzer for all users Hi, I would like to set some settings in Analyzer as default for all users. For example: 1. Display | Char 2. right mouse click on char | Chart Properties 3. Axes tab 4. "Format: Currency" i would like to change to "Format: Number". How to set default values to all users? Is this possible? Thanks, Grofaty

I'm pretty sure higher access superceedes, so you could set up a group with no actual access, just to get the preferences working, then their individual security will dictate what they can do. I haven't tested this fully, but I beleive this is how it will work. As far as setting the preferences, go into the admin console and right click on the group, then select Preferences. To apply the group preferences to a user, add the user to the group, then right click on the user, select preferences and from the upper left corner, use the drop down to select the active preference, in this case, it will be the group you created and added them to.

How to set default locale in JDK1.3.0 to US?

Hi, everyone!
I found the default locale in JDK 1.3.0 is not set to US when I converted our JDK from 1.2 to 1.3.0. So I have to change code by passing Locale.US.
The output from below test code is:
default=��100.00
US=$100.00
import java.util.Locale;
import java.text.*;
public class TestCurrency
public static void main(String[] args)
int amount = 100;
//default
NumberFormat moneyWriter = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance();
System.out.println ("default=" + moneyWriter.format(amount) );
//US
moneyWriter = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance(Locale.US);
System.out.println ("US=" + moneyWriter.format(amount) );
Can anyone tell me how to set default locale in JDK 1.3.0 to US?
Thanks!

You have to set something on your computer (outside Java) to tell it that you are in the US. You didn't say, but I'm going to guess that you are using Windows; if that's so, then try Regional Options in Control Panel.

How to set default view for preview?

Every time I open a PDF using Preview I have to set the view to 'thumbnails', then 'two pages up', then adjust the zoom. Complete waste of time.
Anyone know how to set defaults so that it opens in a predictable way?
thanks,

I customized my Toolbar to look like the following. Click the middle button that has the 1 circled. That tells Preview to remember to display pages at actual size (100%). Every file that I open now displays at 100%.

How to set default values in initialization event for select option

Abapers,
I have 3 GL account like 0024831231,0024831238,0024831245.
Please help me how to set default values in select-options ( s_hkont ) in INTIALIZATION event
Thanks

Select option is table <Structure> with fields, low, high, sign & option
you need to append the value into the select option, with appropriate value in low or
example:
S_HKONT-low = <value>
S_HKONT-SIGN = 'I'
S_hkont-OPTION = 'EQ'
append s_hkont.
Default value for select-option also can be added directly in select-option statement.

it's a bit dirty but I usually just place it in the PBO with a flag for control. It's simple and not too costly i think.
MODULE preRender OUTPUT.
DATA first_time TYPE flag VALUE 'X'.
IF first_time EQ 'X'.
* put your initialization code here
CLEAR first_time.
ENDIF.
ENDMODULE.

Hi Cristoph,
We tried all the way but could not able assign characteristics value before saving the document. it means we can only see the assigned value using transaction CV02N. but our requirement is to check if the user fills any value into characteristics it should check with default value which we would like to assign whenever we create a new part of the document which we are not able to achieve.we tried a lot but could not succeed.
Nay idea if we can achieve this....
