Parameter passing

Can I pass a parameter with All, Single value to a report?

  1. The report should display only single value, when single value is passed, and when ‘ALL’ value is passed, it should values in the report For Eg: Region: east,west,north,south,ALL’.

When a region vaue ‘east’ is selected , it sould display east. when ‘ALL’ is selected, it should display east,west,north,south values. Is this possible? then how?

you need to create a filter at universe level to pass to the child report

Hi,

I have done the lov combining ‘All’ as below:
Overriding the LOV SQL

  1. Press the SQL button in the query panel of the LOV
  2. Added the phrase UNION SELECT ‘ALL’ FROM DUAL or similar dummy table for your particular database.
  3. Click the “Do not generate SQL before running” checkbox.

But the object when I drag in webi does not appear with ‘ALL’ in it.
i.e. the other values except ‘ALL’ appears.

Thanks
