     Posted: 11 Feb 2008 at 9:41am
I'm having a very hard time with dynamic prompting in XIR2. Maybe I'm thinking too hard on this but I have multiple reports that need to give me various parameters based off company. From the prompting.rpt in my examples I get how to create it but it doesn't seem to give me what I want. Example one of my reports I need the following parameters based off company
 
COMPANY
DOCTOR
FACILTY
DEPARTMENT
BOOKCODE
 
When I do the cascade it creates parameters called COMPANY-BOOKCODE etc.....
 
Where am I going wrong? Angry

Hi,
 
Once you have created the Cascading Parameter it will create 5 different Parameters .
 
for example
 
Parameter Name - Field Value
 
COMPANY will be your first value
below that select DOCTOR
below that FACILTY
Then DEPARTMENT
Then BOOKCODE......
 
Then Place Parameter Name-Company parameter in the report.
 
 
cheers

So I don't need to bind each value as a parameter?

No you don't need to bind each value of parameter just bind the last value in parameter.....
 
if you don't do that you will have separate parameters created as in my previous post above  if you bind you will have one parameter created.
