PH08128: ISSUES WITH SELF-DRILLING REPORT WITH PROMPTS DRILLING INTO SAMEREPORT FORMAT

APAR status

• Closed as unreproducible.

Error description

• Overview:
  When running the report Test_01, everytime the user clicks
  'Reload', the page should reload and the user should get
  prompted to add a value into the prompt. Instead, if the report
  is run with full interactivity set to 'No', the page returned is
  blank. If the report is run with full interactivity set to
  'Yes', the report reloads, when 'Reload' is clicked but does not
  prompt the user to enter a value even when the Display prompt
  pages option is set to 'Always' in the drill-through
  definitions. The Report outputs to HTML and the issue is seen
  when running the report in HTML. There is no change in report
  format. This issue was first noted in R13 but has been seen in
  11.1.1 as well
  
  Steps to recreate:
  1. Copy the report spec included, Test_01.xml and paste it to a
  new report.
  2. Save the report in My Content as Test_01.
  3. Edit the Drill-through definition on the hyperlink, 'Reload'.
  4. Change the target report to Test_01 in the location you saved
  it to i.e. My Content
  5. Set the default action to 'Run the report' and the Format  to
  'HTML'
  6. Set Display prompt pages to 'Always'
  7. From the report properties, set Full interactivity to 'No'
  8. Run the report in HTML, enter a any value and click finish.
  Then click reload. The page will go blank.
  9. Change Full interactivity to 'Yes'
  10. Run the report as a HTML, enter any value and click finish,
  Then, click reload, report will reload but will not prompt you
  again.
  
  Included is the Test_01.xml file. It contains no customer data
  and is just a report spec with a prompt and a self-drilling
  drill through definition.
