Find Facility

I did try to find the answer to this query in archives, but had not luck –

I need to find out if it is possible to have several search options/boxes. so that an end user can insert a Surname or/And DOB or/And Policy No or to view more information about a client.

I’ve got limited access to BO 5.1.4. So any suggestions are welcome,

Cheers :o

Try a search on prompt, wildcard, dynamic.

Your prompt-definition (in designer!) should be something like:

Table.ColumnName IN @Prompt(Value(or % for all): ','A','Proj : CLASS\OBJECT 
for list of values',multi,free) or '%' IN 
@Prompt('Value (or % for all): ','A','CLASS/OBJECT for list of 
value',multi,free)

There is no optional prompt functionality in Business Objects. Your best bet would be to implement this feature in Designer.

Summary:
Allow a keyword such as ALL or * in a predefined condition along the lines of (pseudocode):

<Dimension) in @PROMPT(...) 
OR
'ALL' in @PROMPT(...)
