what is optional prompt in boxi r2..

Answer / manoj

Till XIR2, there was no optional prompt. user needs to
enter the value in the prompt. All the prompt values are
mandatory. But from xi3.0 onwards, while creating prompts
in the report, it can be optional by selecing optional
checkbox while creating the prompt filter in query panel.
