Getting RID Of One or More Required Value Missing

[gosoccer]

Folks,
I have to setup this prompt to optional but since it is a prompt that is referecing a parameter used in the Framework Model,unfortunately, I can't set it up to optional.
The problem is the reference to this parameter value inside the FM Model.
(XXX.SITE_ID = #prompt('XXX_SITE')#)

The java script I am using for submitting and finishing the report works great except it can not bypass this message I have attached.

The code looks like below,

if (datesDiff > 390) {
var msg = 'The date range cannot be greater than 13 months. ';
alert(msg);
} else if (startDateVal < disclaimerDate  ) {
var msg = 'show disclaimer';
alert(msg);
promptButtonFinish ();
}else {
   if ( canSubmitPrompt() ) {
   promptButtonFinish ();
   }
  }
}

If I create the Query and the parameter inside the report something like site_id=?site_id?, it works just fine and I
don't get this message at submit time.

Any help would be greatly appreciate it.

You can make the prompt optional in FM.
Check this.

WHOOM! Interesting,
DefaultText

This optional parameter is the text to be used by default. If a value is specified, the prompt is optional.
If you use a space and no values are provided in the Prompt Value dialog box, a Where clause is usually not generated.
If you use text and no values are provided in the Prompt Value dialog box, a Where clause is usually generated using the default

Do you by any chance has an example for NON-DMR, NON-DIMENSIONAL?
Thx so much
