Issue with date prompt using universe

0 Kudos

Hi guys,

I have an application based on universe using a date parameter and when I run the application, it doesn't show the help values for dates.

The business layer has defined the the field as DATE :

Then, into the application, the data source has this setting in the query specification (here we can see the help values for dates, I don't know why shows date and hour when the field is only defined by Date in the universe):


But when I execute the application I can´t see those help values for dates:


We are using 1.6 SP1 base on 4.1 SP2.

Please, any idea to solve this? Is there something I did wrong?

Thanks in advance!

Andrea.

Hi guys,

Besides not see the help values in the selection screen, when I execute the application via BI Platform, the dates parameters don't work. I've tried with the formats: DD/MM/YYYY, DD.MM.YYYY, YYYYMMDD.

But if I execute via local  host, they work with format DD/MM/YYYY.

The universe has a relational connection to ERP Development system.

The connection in the universe has Spanish(Spain) language and uncheck Save Language checkbox.

Also, into Design Studio, under Tools -> Preferences -> Application Design -> Application Preview , I've checked the BI Platform User Settings radio button.

And in the BI Platform settings, I've set Spanish (Spain) language.

We are using 1.6 SP1 base on 4.1 SP2.


Please, any advice?

Thanks in advance!

Andrea.

Andrea - did you check out the replies in these threads?

Date formats for Prompts different in DS1.6 to ... | SCN

I don't know how old BI4.1 SP2 is - are you planning to patch/update soon?

Thanks Tammy!

I've checked the threads  you adviced me but I couldn't solve the issue.

Regarding the BIP version, the basis team is planning to upgrade it, but it takes time!
