Hi,
I have "Is Tabular Data?" prompt in my prompt page. If user selects Is Tabular Data prompt as Yes, then I want to open directly a Drill through report.
Can I do it or not?
Thanks.
How about creating a Text item in the Prompt page saying 'Tabular Data' and creating a Drill thru from that?
You could also do this in the Report Page and avoid the prompt page completely.
Thanks Steve.
However I want to go to a drill through when user selects "Is Tabular Data?" prompt as 'Yes' and hit the FINISH button.... The Drill through page should come rather than the Main report page.
This is what the customer want. Just let me know is it possible or not?
This depends on the parameter values passed from the main report.
You can include the queries of drill through report in the main report and can render the drill through report page for the Is tabular Data values.
Hi Suhan,
You mean to say that I should create another page Page2 and use render variable.
I know this functionality. And I worked as well.
Customer specifically asking whether we can directly go to the Drill through report by selecting FINISH button and also the prompt Is Tabular Data = 'Yes'
I don't think this is possible in Cognos. Drill through means we should have one link in main page.
Thanks.
It's a bit convoluted, but this might work,
Make the prompt auto submit.
Set a conditional variable on a block around the finish button so if the prompt is tabular set it shows a disguised bit if text with a drillthrough on it, and if tabular set is not selected it shows the finish button.
However, if it were me, I'd just put a Finish button on the page and next to it a Tabular button.
No need to select the prompt option, the user just decided which button to press.
Hi,
If I understand the requirements, then
There are 2 reports, Main and Drillthrough
And if the user selects the Id tabular data prompt, you want to show the drillthrough report.
However,
When we drill the 1st report, it passes the input(parametes) to the drill report.
If this itself is not passed, how will the drill through report work.
May be this requirement is not possible.
Thanx

This method looks like working but it's not passing the selected prompt values as parameters to drillthrough report.
How I can make it?
