Title: Portlet-to-Portlet Communication Using a Prompt
Post by: giovanni.lucarelli on 07 Sep 2009 04:08:27 AM
hi,

I'm trying to reply the example in "IBM Cognos 8 Business Intelligence:The Official Guide" on page 121 but I don't understand how it connects the Cognos Viewer portlet with a prompt and Cognos Viewer portlets with reports in the second column...

can does somebody help me, please?

thanks very much

This works via Channel:

Select properties of Cognos Viewer portlet. Look under Channel. You can name it here and set properties of portlet/report interaction.

Good luck
