In What Order Does Oracle BI EE Apply Prompts with Default Values?

Because prompting enables you to build flexible dashboards and analyses, it is important to understand how Oracle BI EE initiates a complex dashboard's prompts. The following list presents the order in which, at runtime, Oracle BI EE applies prompts with default values:

  1. Hidden prompts whose scope is the dashboard page.

    For more information about hidden prompts, see "Adding a Hidden Dashboard Prompt to a Dashboard or Dashboard Page".

  2. Hidden prompts whose scope is the whole dashboard.

  3. Prompts whose scope is the dashboard page. The precedence order of dashboard page prompts is unspecified.

  4. Prompts whose scope is the whole dashboard.

  5. Prompts, either inline or named, whose scope is the analysis.
