What is the use of Generated Prompt? Where is it used in
realtime project?
Answer Posted / arun pandiyarajhen
Well, it is an interesting prompt in Cognos. The generated
prompt is used whenever we are not sure which prompt to use
in the report. When we use generated prompt, it will change
itself into a suitable prompt based on the column type
which is associated with it.
If we want to select single value in text datatype in the
prompt, it will change into a value prompt.
If we want to select multiple values in the prompt, it will
change into a list box.
If we want to select single value in number datatype in the
prompt, it will change into a text box prompt.
If we want to select the range between to values in number
datatype, it will change into intervals (2 text box
prompts) asking for the range.
If we want to give the range between to values in text, it
will change into two value prompts.
We can predefine which prompt should be displayed for the
chosen column properties in the Framework Manager.
The above specified prompts are defaults.
regards,
Arun
