OBIEE11g: How to Navigate to Criteria tab on clicking Edit link from Dashboard



Scenario:

 Lets say we have a report placed on the dashboard page and we have the Edit and Export report links on the bottom of the report. If we click on Edit link it will navigate to Analysis pane but by default we would be navigating to Results tab where the report start running and if the filter conditions are set to "Is Prompted" then the reports tried to fetch all the data which may take long time to avoid this we need to manually click on "Criteria" tab every time when you click on "Edit". We can make a setting to avoid this and it points to Criteria tab automatically when ever you click on Edit. We can enable this setting as follows...

1) After logging to Presentation Services(Analytics), you can see the user name in the extreme right corner of the page. Click on the user then you can see two options (these options may change depends on the application role the user been assigned to). Click on "My Account"



2) Now you can see one new window getting opened where you can personalize the user preferences like the display language, Start page,Time Zone etc...


3) Select the option "Start on Criteria tab when editing Analysis" from Analysis Editor drop down.


4) Click on Ok and go to the dashboard and click on edit link of any report you can see navigating to Criteria tab instead of Results tab.



Hope this saves your time......

Thanks,
