Edit Prompt Defaults Utilities>PM Report Designer

Overview

Edit Prompt Defaults has three purposes:

1)  To set the initial value of a report prompt so when a user runs the report the most common value for a prompt is preset.

2) To disable prompts, that, if changed, would result in an improper meaning to a report design.

3)  To avoid confusion of a user changing the value when the prompt has no effect on the report.

How to access the default prompts:

Step 1 - Select the Edit Prompt Defaults option from the main menu.

Step 2 - Complete the Standard Project Management Report parameter form that appears.

Step 3 - Next to most fields (or groups of fields) will be a check box. If the check is removed from a box, it will disable the associated field from the report user while retaining the default value.
