Title: Active Reports Data Decks
Post by: GeethaKL on 15 Nov 2015 06:27:38 PM
Hi All,
In Cognos 10.1.1 Active Reports, is it possible to make Default card of the Data Deck as the starting Screen and get to see that screen first as soon as we open the report output.
A bit of back ground
It is relational Modelling, I have different Regions on the left in a list report and in the Top cell of the list report, I have list report again embebeded in the Repeater table to show the Total image.
In the default card of the datadeck, I had put the chart to show figures for all the regions and in the normal card I have included list to show the details broken down by region.

The user wants the charts to be the staring screen whenever he runs the report..
Is it possible to put the default card of the data deck as the first screen?
please advise. thanks a  lot

regards
Geetha

Yes - absolutely. All you need to do is to make sure that the variable used to control the data deck has no default value defined. This will then mean that the default card is displayed initially.
