Month/Year DatePicker Selection

[stancho]

Hi all,

How can I have a date prompt for selecting only month (and year) but NOT a date?

Hi,

For Month and or Month Year then use a value prompt instead of the date prompt

Yep
you mean to have 2 parameters for both year and month instead of one for date.

Thanks,

Hi,

You have a number of ways to do this and yes you could create two prompts if you wanted for the year and the month name/number. 

Alternatively, you could create an item that concatenates the year and month together e.g. 2011 January and use that to supply the value prompt.  You will also need a sort key for the ordering.

Ideally place the Year Month in either your date dimension or create the concatenation in the relevant query subject in Framework Manager.

Thanks Rob,

maybe the best decision is using two prompts....
