• Strategy


SYMPTOM:
 
When a user selects an element filter in a object and saves a personal answer for a different filter for the same document, the users see the prompt screen for the element filter twice, in Strategy Web 9.3.0.
 
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

  • Create a filter - Elements of Call Center ( Filter prompt based on attribute - Call Center).
  • Ensure 'Personal Answers Allowed' is set to Multiple, as shown below.

  • Create an object prompt 'Time Prompt' containing two filters 'Elements of Month' and 'Elements of Year' from steps 3 and 4.

  • Create a grid report containing Attribute 'Call Center', Metric 'Revenue'. The grid report should contain the filter 'Elements of Call Center' and the object prompt 'Time Prompt', created in steps 1 and 5.

  • Create a new document from the grid report.
