Navigation between the two tabs in WebI report using Hyperlink

Hi All,

We are using BO 4.0, so in BO Launch pad, trying to create a hyperlink in the report. Report is having 2 tabs, 1st tab is Main tab and second is a detail tab. So basically, I need to navigate between these tabs.

For achieving this, I have created a hyperlink in my Main report tab, syntax of which is as follows:

="<a href=\"http://../BOE/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?sDocName=TestReport&sReportName=DetailTab&sRefresh=Y\" title=\"\" target=\"_self\" nav=\"web\">Click here for Details</a>"

created one more hyperlink on the second tab, syntax is:

="<a href=\"http://../BOE/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?sDocName=TestReport&sReportName=MainTab&sRefresh=Y\" title=\"\" target=\"_self\" nav=\"web\">Back to Main Page</a>"

Basically, I want when I click on the link in the Main tab, it should navigate to second tab- detail tab and vice-versa.But while doing this, the report is getting open on the different report instances instead of getting open in the same report. The windows are getting open one above the other.

Please check whether the syntax is correct or something additonal I need to add in the syntax?

Or any other alternate method with which I can achieve this.

Regards,

Tina

Hi Prasand,

I have already added this parameter &sWindow=Same in the syntax but still its now working correctly.

Main Page Syntax:

http://.../BOE/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?sDocName=<reportname>&sReportName=Detail+Tab&sR...

Detail tab syntax:

http://.../BOE/OpenDocument/opendoc/openDocument.jsp?sDocName=<reportname>&sReportName=Main+Tab&sRef...

Please check and revert.

Actually, I want to navigate in the same report from one tab to another tab and added the hyperlink for achieving this but when I click on the hyperlink it is navigating me from first tab to the second tab but a new instance in a new window is getting open and first instance is getting overlap on the second instance instead of getting open in the same window.

I have used parameter sWindow=Same in the hyperlink syntax but still a new window is getting open.

Please check and revert.

As far as I have seen, this feature is not supported yet in BI 4. There's an Idea Place request open for it, so please vote!
