Previously selected value of a prompt pertaining

Hi All,
Had a issue with the dashboard.
There are two prompts p1 & p2. p2's value are updated based on p1's value.
Issue being face is that when p2's go button is clicked and next time p1's value is changed and clicked go,the previously selected p2's value is still pertaining. How can i get rid of the previously selected value.
Thanks.

Hi svee,
Thanks for the reply.
I need the two go buttons,since the two prompts are in different sections and p2 is driven by the presentation variable of p1.
Also in p2 user can change the value to check for the results.
Thanks

Prompts visible on the basis of the selected value of initial prompt

I have some reports in which multiple queries option is provided at UI by using no of prompts.. Now some of the prompts are visible on basis of the selected value of initial prompt. That means If value of prompt A is x than prompt B is displayed and if value of prompt A is y than Prompt C is displayed, which of the prompt(B or C) is displayed depends on value of prompt A.
how can we achieve this.Kindly help
prompts visible on basis of the selected value of initial prompt

Hi,
This isn't possible at report level. If you mounted your reports on a dashboard, your dashboard prompt could contain prompt a, b and c. Users can then choose to populate any of the prompts they require rather than having to hit "next prompt" all the time.
Thanks

How do I pass selected values from dynamic LOV to Command SQL in Oracle

My environment:
Crystal 11
Oracle 10
I've created and tuned a SQL script for a report. In the Database Expert, I've copied the SQL into a Command. I've modified the Command to create 3 parameters.
I need help with the following:
1) How do I create a dynamic, cascading LOV and associated prompt group for the three parameters defined in the Command?
2) How do I pass the user selected valueS from the prompt group into the Command SQL as limits applied to the query executed against the database?

I have the same problem with same environment .
The main report is having a 2 level cascading dynamic parameters.
I created a sub report with a command as below.
*select * from (*
select DATUM,MSEC,CNT,B1_NAME,B2_NAME,B3_NAME,ELEM_NAME,INFO_NAME,m.INFOTYPE,V.NAME,rank()
over (partition by B1_NAME,B2_NAME,B3_NAME order by DATUM desc ,MSEC desc,CNT desc) currentRank
from MESSAGES m,INTYDE i,VANAME v
where DATUM <=SYSDATE and trim(B1_NAME)='{?B1Name}'
and trim(B2_NAME)='{?B2Name}'
and m.INFOTYPE=i.INFOTYPE
and i.VALUE_NAME_NUMBER = v.VALNUM) where currentRank=1
I needs to pass cmbination of B1Name and B2Name from main report. I created a formula like
formula=Join({?B1Name},{?B2Name}),'|'); But this is showing some error.
and How I will substitute this in my command . As I new to Crystal XI help expected.

How to get the previoulsy selected value in a combobox

How to get the previoulsy selected value in a combobox. i WANT the current and the previously selected value of the combobox.

Just add to combobox ItemListener. When item is changing in itemStateChanged arrives 2 events. ItemEvent.DESELECTED and ItemEvent.SELECTED with corresponding item's values. Just write something like this:
        comboBox.addItemListener(new ItemListener() {
            Object prevValue;
            public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent e) {
                if (e.getStateChange() == ItemEvent.SELECTED) {
                    //do what you need with prevValue here
                } else {
                    prevValue = e.getItem();
        });

SQL based prompt using value of first prompt

Hi Experts,
Is there any way by which we can use the value selected in first prompt to generate the values in second prompt.
I actually want to write a sql for second prompt using the value selected in first prompt.
Is it possible.
I am aware of the constraint option but it will not be helpful for my requirement.
Regards,
Anurag

hi,
1) Declare a presentation variable in first prompt V1
2) Take a dummy colum in fx section CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN 'Dim - Area" ELSE '@{V1}' END
Save the prompt select value in first prompt and click go it will pass the same value to second prompt
If this is not the requirement let me know
thanks,

Return a Range of Value from Dashboard Prompt

From example, 'Day' column has values from 1 to 365 and I set it as a dashboard prompt. If I want to select a range of value from 'Day', I can use 'is between' operator. Then I can select a range of day value from 1 to 365.
My additional requirement is to return a fixed range of value. For example, the maximum range is 31 days. That means if I select day 1, the result should display 1-31. Also I should be allowed to select a range fewer than 31 days. In short, I need to return result from minimum 1 day to maximum 31 days. Is it possible for dashboard prompt? or there are other solutions?

Let's see. To answer your first question, yes, you will end up having two prompts that hold values 1-31. The user will select one value from the first prompt, say 2, and a value from the second prompt, say 31. Since both of these prompt values are stored in presentation variables, you can use them in the filter on the "day column" in your report (i.e., 'Day' greater than or equal to pvStartDay and less than or equal to pvEndDay). This will give you the range on your report.
The reason for the CASE WHEN 1=0 is because you are using the Day column twice in your prompt. OBI only allows you to use a column once in your report. It is also to protect the column from being affected by the prompts.
Check this link for details:
http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/2008/02/26/oracle-bi-ee-101332-between-prompts-for-date-columns-using-presentation-variables/
Now, based on your second post, it appears your conditions are different. You are selecting actual dates, not a number from 1-31.
TomChan wrote:
Maybe I can describe my case in a simple way. I have a startDate prompt that can select all date values. If I select a date value from startDate prompt, says '20090101'(in yyyymmdd format), the endDate prompt should display maximum 31 values(i.e. 20090101 - 20090131) basing on the selected values of startDate prompt. Then I further select a value in the endDate prompt to filter the report. Is it possible?I am a bit confused. It seems that you want the first prompt to display the first day of the 12 months of the year and once selected, the second prompt would be constrained to show the days of that particular month from which the user would select the "end date"? But then you say "basing [sic] on the selected values of starDate prompt" -- you have "values" as plural. Does this mean the user can select multiple values in the first prompt?

Second selectOneMenu updates values, but not selected value

I have a drop down box that when a value is selected the second drop down box queries the database and is filled in. This works fine, but if I change the value in the second drop down box so the selected value is now something different. And then change the first drop down box, which updates the second. The second box will continue to show the previously selected value and not the default value that I want.
Sorry for that being confusing. It seems that the getter is not called in the bean for the second drop down box after it is updated a second time.
Here is some of the code:
               <h:selectOneMenu id="firstDropDown" style="width:85px" value="#{firstDropDownBean.clientSelected}" immediate="true"
                             onchange="this.form.submit();" valueChangeListener="#{firstDropDownBean.requerySecond}">
                    <f:selectItems value="#{firstDropDownBean.clientCodeList}" />
                </h:selectOneMenu>
                <br>
                <h:selectOneMenu id="secondDropDown" style="width:85px" value="#{firstDropDownBean.secondSelected}" immediate="true">
                    <f:selectItems value="#{firstDropDownBean.secondList}" />
                </h:selectOneMenu>
    public void requerySecond(ValueChangeEvent event)
        fillSecondList((String)event.getNewValue());
        FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().renderResponse();
    }The "fillSecondList" sets the secondSelected value

Hi,
using JSF Reference Implementation requires you to redirect the page (refresh the page) to show changes. It has no notion of partial refresh (which is available in ADF Faces). So the problem you face appears to be in the page refresh not happening

How to get the value of multi-select in the Dashboard Prompt

I have a multi-select prompt in the Dashboard Prompt, what I want is, how do I know that user has choose one value,
for examle, for some reasons, if user didn't choose any value, then I will set one column in answer as "customer office" , if user choose one value, then the column in answer will be "customer name".
any comments, thanks.

Hi,
first define the presentation variable for the required column prompt. ex: PV
Then in report level set the filter for that column = @{PV}{customer office}. here u have to give default value as "customer office", so by default the report in dashboard will show customer office even though the user does not select any value from dashboard prompt.
Mark If Helpful/correct.
Thanks.

Is there a way to hide some reports based on the selected values in prompt.

Hi Experts,
Is there a way to hide some reports based on the selected values in prompt.
For ex. if a year is selected in the prompt then the report should display year wise report.
If a year and half year both are selected in the drop down from prompt section then 2 reports should come.. One for year wise and another for half year wise.Kindly look into this.
Regards
Ashish

Hi,
Use presentation values in prompts for year,half,qtr and month.Example- For year-y is presentation variable in the same way for halfyear-h,qtr-q and month-m.
create four intermediate reports.Example-Report r1 with only year column,r2 with only halfyear column,r3 with qtr column and r4 with month column.
Make column in each report(r1,r2,r3,r4) is equal to their presentation variables(y,h,q,m).
Use four sections.
Section1-Place report that should come when only year.
section2-Place report that should come for year and halfyear.
Section3-Place report that should come for year,halfyear and qtr.
Section4-Place report that should come for year,halfyear,qtr and month.
Apply guided navigation for each section selecting guided navigation-
For section1-
properties->Guided navigation->check this Reference Source Request(Yes)->select report r1(year)->check this Show Section(if request returns row)
In the same way do for remaining section2(select r2),section3(select r3) and section4(select r4)

Thanks for your replies !
Is there any other way to achieve this ?
There is 1 InfoObject which has 2 fields Employee and Department.
Employee     Department
001                A
001                B
001                C
In the report there should be 1 row for Employee 001 with all the Departments displayed in the same cell separated by commas.
Can this be done in the backend through a ABAP code?

Selected Values not displaying in Multiselect Prompt

Hi all,
We are having reports with Multiselect Prompts. When we select values , we are unable to see the corresponding values. Is their any rule like Multiselect Prompt won't work if there are Null values in it..

Hi,
There is no case that if your column contains NULL values multi select prompt wont work.
It should work irrespective of values in column.
Just check that you have selected Control as Multi select for Prompt column.

Regarding Can we store User Selected values in prompts

Please help us in achieving the below requirement.
Requirement is to store User Selected values in prompts when the report is opened by a User for the first time and make use of those values to refresh the report next time onwards.
1.Can this be achieved in WebI ?
2.If it is thru SDK(we use Java), any experience/help in doing this ?
Environment : BO XI 3.1 with SAP BW Integration

Hi ,
If you dont want data to be displayed in this report for this two values , then exclude this two values when you restrcit your characteristic to the variable.
If you want not to display this values when user opens help for entering the values where he can see all the possible values for selection for the variable, then it wont be possible.
Hope this will help.

Restricting Prompt values until parent prompt is selected

OK - this should be simple,but again its causing problems. I have a prompt with a series of drop downs based on the Organisation dimension. They are restricted so that they are filtered accordinly when the values are selected. I need to go one step further and not show any values until de parent value is selected. I am trying to do this with presentation variables and then using SQL to generate the values for each prompt passing as filter the variable for the parent prompt. I am getting an errors on the "@{var_name}" syntax.
Has anyone managed to do this?

Sorry, I thought that was what you were asking for (aside from the syntax of using prompts in the SQL statement). So please clarify again. When the user selects a value in the parent prompt, that value is stored in the PV. Now, what exactly do you want the users to see in the drop down of the child prompt?
I just thought of something... Are all your prompts stored in one prompt file? If so, and the prompts are all set to Report Defaults, values in the prompts won't show until the drop down value is pressed and a value selected. Also, the prompt won't launch the report until the "Go" button is pressed. (By checking "constrain," each subsequent prompt will be properly constrained by the one before, as applicable.)
If the prompts are in separate prompt files, then above would not be true.
