Title: Prompting in the Dashoards
Post by: raja1718 on 22 Feb 2012 09:30:27 AM
Guys,

Am on the way to Developing the dashboards.

I am trying to get the "Dropdown List prompt" on the screen but its not displaying on the dashboard (Its showing the sacved output)  but when i run interactively its showing up.

Can anyone know why its not showing up ?  Please Let me know is there any option or settings need to enable.

Thanks in advance.

Raj

I have to make several assumptions here so please ignore if I am not correct.

Assumptions:
1 - You have a Report Studio Report with a Drop Down prompt on it
2 - You made a Portal Page to display this report as a dashboard but the Dropdown list box isn't showing up

If this is in fact the case the solution is simple - just change the report properties on the Portal page from "Show most recent" to "Always Run" - the dashboard will take longer to open but you will have your Dropdown list box now.

I'm with McB on this one.
