Possible to have dynamic default selections for a dashboard prompt?

I'm running OBIEE 11.1.1.6.5, and I have customer who would like to know if it is possible to dynamically select default values on a dashboard prompt based upon other user prompted columns on the same prompt. For example, I built a dashboard prompt with three fields: Month, Customer, and Product; and I want to add a default selection to my Products prompt to pick the "top 4 products" based on the selected Month and Customer.. assuming every Customer+Month has a different "top 4 products".
Does anyone please have a suggestion on how I could approach this solution?

Thank you for your response. I've tested this approach and it seems promising. My concern I have there is how to treat "(All Choices)" values. Say the user selects All Choices on customer or period, and the presentation value in my SQL Results query reverts to whatever default value specified, which is not the intended behavior. My question then becomes how do I treat the null or All Choices and somehow omit the filter criteria or specify fy All Choices as a default to the presentation variable? Your advice is much appreciated.

  • Can we have a Default Value for the dashboard prompt ?

    Hi
    I have a requirement as when we run the dashboard, dashboard prompt should be defaulted with a value for the first time.
    Defaulting the values is done by SQL Results,but when i try to change the values for that prompt it is not showing any other values other than the defaulted prompt.
    Ex: I have a dashboard prompt as Employee Name and i have defaulted the value for that with 'Scott' and ran the dashboard.
    When i try to run it for different employee i am not able to get other values to be selected.
    Do we have any mechanism as such we can have default value when we run the dashboard for the first time and then all the values when we run it for the second time?
    Thanks

  • Default Selection Issue in Dashboard Prompt

    Hi All,
    I am using the below logical SQL in SQL Results for Default Selection of a column in a dashboard prompt,
    SELECT "Facts"."Service Provider", "Config"."Integration Id" FROM "IMONIT - Transaction Log" WHERE "Config"."Integration Id"='@{inttype}'
    Here, I have used a presentation variable, which is set by another prompt. Also the Facts and Config table are joined in RPD. The issue is it does not selects the values returned by the logical SQL by default. But if i use the same logical SQL in SQL Results of Choice List Values for the same column in the prompt, the logical SQL does work and populates the prompt only with the values returned by the logical SQL.
    Any help is much appreciated.
    Regards,
    Maria

    Deepak, actually the scenario is that I am navigating to the page with the dashboard prompt from another answers report located on another dashboard page. This SQL works perfectly when I press the GO button of prompt on the same page. But its not working when I am navigating to the same page with the prompt from any other report. Any ideas ?

  • PDF as default selection for Select printing cotrol (for Web)

    Hi
    Can someone point me to righ direction? What we are trying to do is, in Infoview, set PDF as default selection for "Select printing Control (for Web)", so that each user does not have to do this in preferences in infoview.
    Is it possible to do so? If yes, how?
    Thank you
    Regards
    IMS

    Take a look for a .vbs sample that synchs the ADMINISTRATOR preferences to all users on the BOE platform.
    You can schedule this as a PROGRAM OBJECT in InfoView so that it runs on a regular schedule to apply the change to new users.

  • Possible to Have ToC Default to Show Only Top Level (collapse sublevels)?

    Howdy!
    I'll bet I'm not the only one wishing for this.  Let's say you're using Captivate 4's Table of Contents feature with a longish movie of Cp slides, which is chunked into bite-size sections content-wise.  In the ToC, though, you can't mimic that same organization scheme; at least, the learner would first need to collapse all the ToC folders you've created so they see only the top-level listing.
    This can be a critical issue:  keeping the at-first-glance list in the ToC brief enough to be inviting to learners, yet allowing learners to drive which details are currently visible.
    A movie's topical hierarchy could be along these lines, for example ...
    Section 1 - National Brands
    What are National Brands?
    Why Are They Important to Our Business?
    Working with Nat. Brands
    Practice Your Knowledge
    Section 2 - International Brands
    What are International Brands?
    Why Are They Important to Our Business?
    Working with Intl. Brands
    Practice Your Knowledge
    You'd like to organize the ToC to show only the section titles (1st level) and to suppress the 2nd-level detail (slide titles) until the learner chooses to expand the folder to see those details.
    I've tried things like grouping the slides into sections in the Storyboard view and organizing the slides into sections strictly within the ToC -- both to no avail.
    Has anyone solved for this need yet?
    I'm all ears, and you'd be doing learners of the world a huge favor.
    Thanks!

    Hi, Jim.
    Thanks for being 'on the case' and looking into this so quickly.  Your
    findings are encouraging, although my user base is generally working with
    IE 6 and FP8 or 9.
    Since the only thing I may influence is getting  IT to help push out FP10,
    I'm hoping it's more of a player- than a browser-version issue.
    I'll test things out by Monday and let you know the results.  Wish me luck!

    Dave,
    I just tested this on my local web server and it worked fine.  I created a
    blank project with 8 slides.  Created my TOC with grouping... 2 slides in
    each group.  I turned on self paced learning.  I tried with and without the
    widget and it picked up where I left off in either case.  See
    https://docs.google.com/leaf?id=0B86WuEq6SVwRNWIwMjhjODctMjE2Yy00MWE2LWI5YzEtMGQxYzNjOWQ0Z mI2&hl=en. 
    I published using FP10 and IE8 to view.  Notice any difference between
    your project and this one?
    Thanks,
    Jim Leichliter

  • Spry Accordion: Is it possible to have no row selected?

    Is there any way to make the Accordion act like there is no
    row currently selected? It doesn't appear to be possible to set
    this to null. The data in this case is being loaded from an XML
    file, so I made a work-around by making the first XML element in
    the list an empty tag, which worked ok, but that makes it harder to
    retrieve the XML file directly from the database. Is there any way
    to truly have no row selected in the Accordion?

    True, I guess the accordion isn't the issue. What I'm
    referring to are the functions for getting the current row from in
    the XMLDataSet API. As far as I can tell, it doesn't seem to be
    possible to have a null value for the currently selected row. I
    just wanted to make sure that it is not in fact possible to have an
    XMLDataSet instance with no currently selected row?

  • Is it possible to have two USB drives for the IPad?  I want to bring RAW photo files from my camera, through the IPad and back to an external hard drive.  One of my cameras does not use an SD card.  How can I do this?

    Is it possible to have two USB drives for the IPad?  I want to bring RAW files from my camera through the IPad and out to an external hard drive.  One of my cameras has an SD card but the other one doesn't have a card that would fit in any of the camera devices I've seen on line.  Realted to this, I bought the IPad camera accessory.  Can I put the SD card in the device and also hook the external hard drive to the USB port of the accessory and download from the camera to the hard drive?  Can I put Lightroom or the Nikon photo editing software on the IPad?  Right now I carry a PC laptop and external hard drives with me on wildernes trips.  Internet and WiFi are not available.  Because I shoot so many photos and they're in RAW I need to download from the camera to the external drive because I run out of memory on the PC (and it has much more memory than the IPad).  I have Nikon NX software and lightroom on my PC.  I'd love to be able to reduce the weight I carry by using the IPad to edit my photos each night while on trips.  Is this possible and how would I do it?  I'd appreciate any guidance.

    No, the camera connection kit only supports the copying of photos and videos to the Photos app, it doesn't support copying content off the iPad. For your second camera instead of the SD reader part of the kit, does the iPad to camera cable not work with it for direct transfer to the iPad ?
    For Lightroom and Nikon software again no - you can only install apps that are available in the iTunes app store on your computer and the App Store app on the iPad, 'normal' PC and Mac (OS X) software are not compatible with the iPad (iOS). There are some apps that perform fairly basic editing functions that are available in the store, but nothing as sophisticated as, for example, Lightroom.

  • Is it possible to have Different Interval Ranges for the same Doc Type

    Dear All,
    Here is the issue.Is it possible to have different interval ranges for the same document type according to certain condition.Like my client , wants his interval ranges  be divided according to region(which are many)
    Regards,
    Sameer Jalees

    Hello,
    As you know we can only assign one number range for External and one number range group for internal in the sales document type.
    If you want different number ranges based on the regions, then as Jignesh suggested, you need to go for an enhancement.
    Use the exit USEREXIT_NUMBER_RANGE in program MVA45AFZZ, include a Z table with region as a critera and number range group for different numbers based on the regions. Talk to the business and get more details, get the help of ABAP team for technical details.

    Hi,
    >>>>>1. Is it necessary to keep both XI and SAP Logon in the same system?
    XI consists of two stacks - java and abap
    so to access XI you also need sapgui
    otherwise you won't be able o use XI
    >>>>2. Do we have any other alternative to find out the port?
    a) ask someone who installed this system
    b) if you know the system number of your XI
    then you can try: http://xiserver:5XX00
    where XX is the system number of XI

  • In WM is it possible to have a TR's for Inbound and Outbound deliveries?

    Hi All,
    In WM is it possible to have a TR's for Inbound and Outbound deliveries?
    In WM is possible to create a TO without TR being created?
    Please let me know the configuration for the same!
    Thanks in advance,
    Kumar

    The delivery itself is treated as transport request, hence you cannot get an extra TR.
    Using LT01 with movement type 999 will create a TO without needing any TR.
