Title: Multiple values in a text prompt
Post by: smtest on 13 Jun 2007 10:10:38 AM
i have a list of values which i want the users to enter in the text prompt, but somehow it  is not working. If i change the filter to  use "in",  it allows to enter values but one at a time, i have a list of hundred values, i want to enter them together instead of entering one by one
pls advice
thanks

Use a normal textbox prompt with Multi-Line and Multi-Select set to true, then they can enter a whole bunch of values in one go

Multi Line, Multi Select set to YES for textprompt doesn't seem to work against a dimensional data source like SAPBW where the variables are not definied in a detail filter.

Any thoughts?
