Step 3: Defining Analytics Prompts (Optional)To allow users to specify a filter value when they run an analysis, define a runtime prompt for the analysis. Runtime prompts are useful because analyses may need to be filtered differently based upon different users or the dates that analyses are run. A runtime prompt differs from a prebuilt filter in that a filter is set up when the analysis is defined and cannot be changed without revising the analysis itself. For example, if you define a prompt on Account Type for the report, your employees are prompted to select which Account Type value to see when they run the analysis. If you define the prebuilt filter as a specific Account Type, such as Competitor, the filter is hard-coded and cannot be altered by the user at run time. You can create the following types of prompts from the Prompts tab in the analysis editor:
You can create multiple prompts of the same type and multiple prompts of different types for a single analysis. Related TopicsSee the following topics for related information: |
