BO 5.1 to XI R 3.1 migration issue

[Former Member]

Hi, I am working om migrating BO reports from 5.1 to XI R 3.1.

In 5.1 I had one report where user had created 4 prompts ( 3,4,5,6) and when he runs the report he gets 6 prompts (1,2,3,4,5,6)

But same report when I migrated to XI R3.1 and when I ran the report, I can see only 4 prompts (3,4,5,6) and prompts (1,2) am not able to see.

I am sure prompts (1,2) in BO 5.1 are not cascading prompts, as cascading prompts was introduced in BO 6x and higher version.

Please let me know, if anyone know from where could be these prompts (1,2) coming ( which user has not created in report himself) and why is it missing in XI R3.1

Thanks,

Ash

Hi,

Is your report data source is free hand sql or universe. If it is Universe based then check the universe in BOXI R3 and also test your report in both BO versions (5.1 & XI R3) by viewing Slice and dice panel.

My reports are universe based, have checked everything on reprot and universe level, could not find out any differences between the two versions. Is it the case that prompts are defined at the universe level, and universe might not have been migrated properly ?

Hi,

Check the prompts in SQL and query panel and of BOXI R3.1. If every thing is fine then universe/report might not be properly migrated.
