I want to use a user prompt response in another prompt on the same document.
Exemple :

Prompt 1 : Society ? AAA
BBB -> user choice
CCC

Prompt 2 : Persons of Society BBB : XXX -> user choice
YYY
...

 
Hi.

Business Objects does not support this..
But if you want to customize your report as per this requirement you can do through vba scripting.

All you need is to add to write the script in the before refresh event.

create user form that will look like as of BO prompt window.
And fetch the records from the dataprovider as per your requirement. It works.

But its on report level only.
 
Of course, you might want to try creating an alternative object into the universe that prompts you for the society. Then you should be able to prompt for the members of that society on a report level. Worked for me, at least.

Hi Shaym,

I have Customized the prompt Using VBA Script but when I am scheduling this document using the Broadcast Agent The prompt is not popping up, not only that BCA is throwing an error 0x800706be The remote procedure call failed.

Is there any specific way to schedule a Report with VBA macro that to prompting user to enter some value.
