Dynamic Month to Date Filter in Universe

Hi All,

We have a requirement for a prompt on Order Date (ORD_TABLE.ORD_DT) field. Whenever a user runs the webi report, it should prompt for an order date range. Such as user can run the report between two order dates. if the user doesn't give a date range, the report should automatically run for current month to date.

We are trying to implement it in the universe (UDT) as a filter so that we/users can easily drag the filter into reports (canned and adhoc).

We are running on BO 4.1 14.1.5 and our backend is Oracle.

Thanks in advance for your responses. Let me know if I didn't make it clear.
