Hi,
I am working on Cognos 8.4, and using Dimensional model for reporting.
I have a requirement in which I have a value prompt with static choices - product and Order Method.
when you select Product , the cross-tab should display in the following format...
               
================================
                        
  + Product(ALL)           
     + Product Line                 
         + Product Type           
     + Product Line                    
         + Product Type        
              
================================   

similalry for Order method also...

but when I am selecting Product in my value prompt I was not able see all the product lines under product...
please help me in this regard.

Please find the attached report specification code for your information

Hi,

I noticed you posted a similar question previously. I think cognostechie suggested configuring the Drill Up/Down options under the Data menu. This is definitely the way to go. I would avoid trying to write complicated JavaScript as this will be difficult to maintain.

As a general approach for building dimensional reports, it is sometimes handy to create a report in Analysis Studio and then opening it in Report Studio to see how it works. This can sometimes provide a cheat for achieving complex tasks.

Cheers
