Concept: Prompt Sets for Composite Reports

Report prompts enable you to customize the information displayed in a report by configuring parameter values before the report runs. You can set up default values for prompts and report data sources with built-in prompts in your report so that you don’t have to configure parameter values each time. Prompt sets are groups of interdependent fields that add more flexibility when running reports. You can use custom or Workday-delivered prompt sets to set up populated values for prompts used in:

Composite reports and subreports, which tie together prompts for subreports that use different report data sources.
Custom dashboards, which apply to all worklets on the dashboard.
Report groups, which make it easier to populate prompt values for report groups without having to configure prompts for each report.

You can set up the fields in the prompt set for:

Data cells.
Data columns.
Dynamic data rows.

To view detailed information on prompt sets, access the:

Prompts
tab on the composite report definition. You can view and edit the prompt settings, prompt sets, report-level prompts, and data prompts for each column, row, and cell. You can also view all prompts for each subreport used on the composite report, and add or create a prompt set from the
Prompts
tab.
You can enable dynamic control fields for accounting worktags in the
Advanced
tab of the composite report settings. See Concept: Dynamic Control Fields for Accounting Worktags.
