Hi,

1. I have a value promt which is having 2 static choices like EMp and Dept.

2. When I select Emp, I am showing Bill Period(drop down-Value Prompt) and EmpNo(Select and Search Promt): This is fine for me

3. When i Select Dept, i am showing Bill Period(Value Prompt-Drop down),BU(Value Prompt-Drop down),Dept(Select and Search Promt),EmpNo(Select and Search Prompt).

as per my client requirement when he select point no #03 i.e EmpNo(Value Prompt-Drop down), Dept and BU prompts should disable.

I said it's not possible, it may work using javascript. Is it possible experts? anybody is having experience plsease post your answers.

Sorry small correction my post. When I am trying to enter a value in EmpNo(Select and Search Prompt) i.e Point 03 and remaining Dept and Bu should disable.

Thanks,

BigChris

I'm not sure about disabling the prompts, but you can probably hide them with a render variable. You could probably make the EmpNo a cascading source for the other prompts, so that you'll know if they've selected #03.

Thanks Chris for your prompt response.

how to do with render variable iam not getting here, i need to disable two prompts.

Thanks,

BigChris

Disabling them would almost certainly need JavaScript...and I'm afraid I don't do JS. My suggested solution would just find those prompts

This is confusing. So you have a prompt that lets you choose/select other prompts to show?
You can google or search in youtube about render variable.
You can also use conditional block and use parameter values.

Found an article http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21388290 that might help.


Cheers!

Thanks for your help SDF. I tried with google example and its not working, then only i posted my question.

I changed the requirement(removed) and my client agreed to remove that one. I am very happy now and Once again Thanks for all your help.
