Remember ER Intro to WebI class? • Here are what we’ve learned in ER Intro to WebI (AFRS Financial Queries) class ER WebI Intro • How to Login • Create Queries • Save Queries • Modify Queries • How to Log off Here are what we’ll learn today… ER WebI Advanced • Add Prompts to Filters • Work with Columns/Rows • Use Sections, Breaks and Sorts • Work with Multiple Queries • Merge Dimensions • Create Formulas and Variables
ER WebI Logon InformationWeb Access (via ER Financial Report Home site) • Click “Click here to access the Web Intelligence Tool”
Chapter 5 – What are Prompts? • Prompt is a filter that allow the user to refresh data with the value specified by the prompt • Allow multiple users to use the same query but view different results based on the prompt values entered • A prompt can be used to limit data to certain time periods • A prompt can be used to limit data to a coding element values • A query can contain multiple prompts

Chapter 5 – Prompt (cont..) Add Prompt • Step 2 – While in [Edit Query] mode, Add Prompt by the “Fiscal Month” dimension • Click on the arrow to the right of the Value entry text box. • SelectPrompt
Chapter 5 – Prompt (cont..) Run Query to use Prompt • Step 3 – Run Query • Click Run Query
Chapter 5 – Prompt (cont..) Using Prompt Step 4 – When the query has run or refreshed, the following Prompts screen will display, prompting the user to select a Fiscal Month. • Select a fiscal month from the Fiscal Month list • Click arrow right
Chapter 5 – Prompt (cont..) Run Query to pull data based on prompt value (fiscal month in this example) • ClickRun Query
Chapter 5 – Prompt (cont..) Exercise 1 – Adding Prompts to Filters • Go to Public Folder\@Helpdesk Web Intelligence to copy “Exercise 1 – Chapter 5 – Prompt_(Shell)” and paste into your “My Favorites”. [This WebI document has been created for your use in this Exercise 1] • Add prompts to Vendor Num filter • Click on Run Query to run the query • Enter a ten-digit statewide vendor number • The following are examples of statewide vendor number: • SWV0007149 Qwest Comm. Inc • SWV0010342 Verizon Wireless • Save As “Exercise 1 – Chapter 5 – Prompt_(Finished)”
Chapter 6 – Working with Columns/Rows • As a default, the tool generates a new report as a vertical table • A vertical table includes the data for all the objects specified in Results Objects panel of the Query View window • You can edit the table contents – Working with Columns/Rows • Adding columns • Adding rows • Removing columns • Removing rows
Chapter 6 – Working with Tables – Add Column (new data) to existing WebI Report • Click “Edit Report” • Make a mental Note: Program was not originally selected in the Result Objects and therefore is not available in the Data section. • Need to switch to “Edit Query” to select Program data.
Chapter 6 – Working with Tables (Cont..) Modify query • Click on “Edit Query”
Chapter 6 – Working with Tables (Cont..) Click and Drag • Click “Program” from the data section and drag to drop it in the “Result Objects”
Chapter 6 – Working with Tables (Cont..) Rerun query • Click “Run Query”
Chapter 6 – Working with Tables (Cont..) Drag and Drop here to insert a cell • Note: “Program” is now shown in Data section • Click on “Program” and then drag it to the report table (to the right of Subsubobject for this example) • Note: To add a column, drop where the verbiage to display is “Drop here to insert a cell”
Chapter 6 – Working with Tables (Cont..) Program added
Chapter 6 – Working with Tables (Cont..) Remove Column • Select column • Right click • Select Remove • Chose Remove Column • Another way to remove column: highlight column & press [Delete] key – this option only delete the data and not the entire column and its content.
