Working with shared prompts

Use shared prompts to apply filtering to analytical queries and compound dynamarts.

1. With an active query in the query editor, either select Query > Manage Prompts or open the Prompts pane on the Design tab.
   On the Prompts pane, you can see the child query prompts or newly added simple prompts or prompt hierarchies.
2. To add a simple prompt, perform the steps from Adding simple prompts.
   The newly added simple prompt is automatically added to a newly created prompt group that borrows its name.
3. To add an existing prompt hierarchy, perform the steps from Adding existing prompt hierarchies.
   The newly added prompt hierarchy is automatically added to a newly created prompt group that borrows its name.
4. To move a prompt from the default group to another group:

   2. From the Prompt Group list, select a group to which you want to add the selected item.
