How to open hyperlink(target Webi report) in new tab in BOXI3.1

[Former Member]

Hi all,

Currently we are using report link using hyperlink syntax between summary report and transaction report.

We were able to open transaction report either new window or same window.

*"<a href="http://<servername>:8080/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?sType=wid;iDocID=108&sWindow=New&lsSEnterJOBID:="UserResponse([Query 1];"Enter JOBID:")"&lsSEnterAccount:="URLEncode([Account]) ">"[Description]"</a> * "

Summary report(Source report) is having one parameter: JOBID

Transaction report(Target report) is has two parameters: JOBID and Account

Now our client requirement is target report needs to be shown in same window but in new tab.

Is it posssible in BOXI3.1,if yes kindly provide me syntax.

Thanks in advance,

Subash

Hi

I have a approach. In summary report Insert a new report (Right click the TAB and select "Insert report"). Now you can make/re-develop the transaction report here (Same as your transaction report). Now using your link you can redirect any of these two reports as necessary/client's requirement. So client would be able to see both report

Hope it will help you

hi,

Thanks for your replies.We were able to link report tabs between summary and transaction detail.

But our requirement is like can we hide the transaction tab till users click on the hyperlink in summary report tab.

Hi Subhash,

Can you please send us the approach on how you linked the two tabs on the same report ? I am assuming you were able to filter the second tab based on the parameters being passed through the hyperlink from the first tab.

We have a similar requirement.

Thanks a lot,

hi Bhargav,

i have developed summary report in one tab and transaction report on other tab

Summary report is developed on One data provider.

="<a href=http://Severname:8080/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?sType=wid&iDocID=11234&sWindow=Same&sReportName=Transaction&lsSEnterJOBID:="UserResponse([Query 1];"Enter JOBID:")"&lsSEnterAccount:="URLEncode([Query 1].[Account]) ">"[Description]"</a>"

sReportName=Tab name(report tab name we need to specify.

Subash,

You can't have it both ways, i.e. a "parent" report with a hyperlink to the "child" is one scenario (which you've achieved), but, a second tab is actually the same report, just another tab. Using the Map feature, you can toggle between the various tabs quickly.

So to boil it down you either have two separate reports (like you've already shown), or one report with two tabs.

Thanks,

John
