Freeze selected values inputcontrol

[Former Member]

Hello BO users,

Do you know how to freeze the selected values of the input control?

The reason is that the user have to reselect the values each time after he re-opens the report.

It wouls save gim time when he does not need to.

Via BO launchpad the user can run the report.

More users can activa the report.

It is a webi version 4.1.

Hello Ami and Sven,

@Ami. Thanks for your response. I was thinking that this will be the only solutio.

@Sven. Thanks again. Standard input values would be a solution if the group of users where the same.
But this is not the case. For example. A role frim the north region only wants to see data from the north. As the same rule existsfor therole frim the south region. The same report is also uaedby the boss of the north and south and like to see the results of both together. That is the catch.
So if a rolefrom the north use standard values....
Itwill affect the role from the south (user) and the boss of two roles.....UNLESS....

You can refer standard values to a user ID.
That would be an epic solution. 🙂 But i doubt that is possible.

What doyou think Sven?

Hi Lucaz,

a proof and most easiest way is to use Analysis Authorizations. But I don't know yet, what kinda data source you are using in your WebI-Report. Why don't ya design the report in seperate versions (south, north, management) and use there the standard values (in different ways). At least you use front-end permissions for the variant groups of users for different report folders and nobody will notice that they are not using the same report.

So you will have your epic solution for different users 😉
