explain about Prompt with example?

Answer Posted / shashank pathak

Prompt is a function in BO, that is used to get report
containing specific data. Specific to what prompt values
have the user entered. A prompt could be given in the query
panel while editing the data provider for the report.

for ex, if a prompt has been added in a column
say "balance" ,and the prompt asks for which date the user
wants to see the balance, then the user can either on its
own put a value or he can also select value/values from the
list of values.
