Issue with Prompts on Report page

Hi,

I have the value prompts on the report page and report page has a list. when I run the report and select the prompt values, click reprompt(button on report page), the problem is that the parameters selection(reprompting) ,  are again coming up, which is not expected. I have already made them as optional prompts and also given the default selections for the prompts on report page, but still the parameters selections are asking in the next page. Any idea if I am missing any other property to update when we have the requirement of the prompts on the report page?



Thanks in advance

Hi,

Quick sanity check. Can you check your list of filters to make sure that only the expected parameters are being included in your filter(s). I have seen examples where people add a prompt (which adds a parameter filter), then remove the prompt but forget to remove the corresponding filter. That's always the first thing I check.

Cheers!

Meep!
