Starting with SAS^® 9.4, the INFOMAPS procedure added support for creating date, numeric, OLAP member, text, time, and timestamp prompts. For numeric and text prompts, you can use ALLOW_ALL_VALUES=YES to add a special value called (All possible values) to the list of values in the prompt. You can then use DEFAULT_VALUES=_ALL_ to set (All possible values) as the default value for the prompt.

However, if you set DEFAULT_VALUES=_ALL_ for a numeric prompt, you see an error that is similar to this one when you run the code:

There is no workaround that enables you to use (All possible values) as the default value for a numeric prompt. As an alternative, you can hardcode a numeric value as the default. Users can then manually select (All possible values) when they access the information map.
