How can I add a button to a form that opens a filtered report or page in a new tab in Decisions?
Hello,
I have a flow that assigns users a monthly feedback task for their budget center. I want to add a button to the assignment form that opens a report or page in a new browser tab, filtered by the user's input and the current year. Is this possible, and what’s the best way to set it up?

Hello,
Yes, you can add a button to your form that opens a filtered report or page in a new tab. Here are two ways to do it:
- Use a Sub Dialog Button with flow logic to build the URL dynamically based on the user’s input and year, then open the report/page.
- Use an Open URL Button on the form. Set "URL from Data Name" to true and "Open in New Tab" to true. Pass the dynamic URL (with filter parameters) from your flow to the form.
Both methods allow you to open the report or page with the correct filters applied.
