BOBJ Webi Prompt with a specific subset of values

Question

I'm creating a webi report and have a few prompts defined at the query (not universe) level. Unfortunately, the prompts return a butt load of values due to the design of the table. What I'd like to do is restrict the list of values presented to the user based on a set of criteria. Is there any way to do this in the query? I'd like to avoid creating a specific prompt in the universe.

Thanks

In XI3, there's no way to do this without touching the universe. In the universe, you can modify the LOV logic for a particular object -- click the "Properties" tab, then "Edit" under "Associate List of Values". This will present a standard query panel; you can add conditions here, and the conditions will be applied whenever the LOV is displayed in WebI. Note that this action will only affect the display of the LOV; it will not have any effect on how the SQL is constructed to generate the report.
