Title: One Report - Multiple prompts
Post by: seancadie on 29 Aug 2012 02:18:58 PM
Hi All,

I am new to Cognos world, I have a challenge creating my BI report. The requirements are..

1. Single report
2.Multiple prompt pages (4 prompts)

The 4 prompts should read the same report instead of creating a separate 4 reports..

is it possible? Can anyone give me an idea or any suggestions? It's highly appreciated.

Thanks
Sean

Do you want four separate prompt pages, each with a single prompt that feeds one report?

Or a single prompt page with four prompts on it?

Hi,

Thanks for your response,  I need to create multiple prompt pages (each and every prompt pages have different filters (prompts).

Can you please advise me?

Thanks
Sean

1. Navigate to the page explorer, click on prompt pages, then drag a page into the Prompt Pages section. 
2. Repeat three more time.
3. On each prompt page, add the prompt you desire.
