I ran into what I thought was a pretty neat feature when using BEx Query Variables and BOBJ Prompts. Let's say I have 2 variables, 1 on the BEx side and 1 on the BOBJ side. When I select a value on the BEx side variable and then refresh values on the BOBJ side variable, I only get the subset list of values based on the BEx variable selection. If I go change the BEx variable or clear it out, and then refresh the BOBJ one, the values are updated accordingly. This is awesome as it provides some basic cascading prompt capabilities which are not possible otherwise with OLAP.
This is all find and dandy in the Rich Client, but when I tried it on the web (HTML mode), the BOBJ variable does not take into account the selections in the BEx variable...just brings in all the available values all the time. Also works fine in WEBI Java.
We are on BOBJ 4.1 SP5 and BW 7.4. Any thoughts? Is it intended to work this way, or I am venturing into something that's not really supposed to work? Some screenshots below to help with a visualization.
