Using Page Prompts in the Data Lineage Dashboards

Each page in the Data Lineage dashboards has a unique set of page prompts, a filtering device that enables you to refine the results of the page report. Each page has a set of default prompt values that are populated when you initially access the page.

All page prompts use a cascading filter design; when a value is changed in one of the prompts, the filter is automatically applied to the subsequent prompts, thus restricting the available values in those filters. For example, the Record page prompt in the Field Impact Analysis page allows you to initially select several records:

However, after selecting ’Admissions and Recruiting’ for the Mart prompt, only the PS_D_RECRTR record is available for the Record page prompt:

To modify the prompts, you can type a value directly into the prompt field or use the drop down to search for values. For cascading prompts, you must delete the prompt values for all dependent prompts. When finished, use the Apply button to view your results.

You can use the Reset button to reset the prompt values to the recently applied or recently viewed prompt values. The Clear Prompts button clears all selected prompt values and returns prompt values to default settings.

The following tables provide a list of page prompts and indicate whether prompt values are required:
