Allow users to choose the preferred output format in the Cognos Toolbar before the users need to choose the selections on the prompt page and run the report in OpenPages

Users need to wait until the report provides the results in the default format until they can choose the desired format in the Cognos toolbar in OpenPages.

For the reports without the prompt pages users can select the format before running the report, but with prompt page they need to wait as the toolbar remains grayed out (attached).
