PI98010: FRAMEWORK MANAGER FACT DIMENSION CALCULATION WITH PROMPT MACRO NOT WORKING IN DASHBOARD

APAR status

• Closed as suggestion for future release.

Error description

• When a fact dimension has measures based on a calculation that
  contains a prompt macro, it throws an error in Dashboard when
  using DQM and CQM. In CQM, if you pull the calculation from a
  regular query subject, Dashboard ignores the prompt and just
  returns the prompt macro's default value. If no default value is
  supplied in the prompt macro, then you just get an indefinite
  spinning circle.
  
  The following simple test calculation causes the error:
  
  case when 1=2 then 1 else #prompt('Lower Delivery Tolerance in
  minutes', 'integer',30)# end
  
  When this calculation is referenced in a Fact Dimension and
  added to the Dashboard, it results in the following error:
  
  The prompt scenario not currently supported.

Temporary fix

Comments

• Dashboards do not currently support Prompt Macros. As a result
  this is working as designed. This would be considered a request
  for enhancement and one should be logged in order to allow the
  product team to more accurately track the level of
  interest/engagement for this capability.
