Greetings,
I am in the process of creating reports with various parameters such as company or Employee Type or Employee Status. I would like to display the Parameter values in the Header of the report that were selected by the user when executed.
Example: I have a report with a Parameter for Company and a parameter for Employee type. If the user selects Company "ABC" and "XYZ" in the parameters and Employee type = "Contractor", Then I would like to display these user selected Parameter values in the header band so that it would display a field for Company Filter = ABC,XYZ and Employee Type filter = Contractor along with Report Scheduled by: John Doe.
Person Report Mock up
Report Scheduled by | John Doe |
Company | ABC,XYZ |
Employee Type | Contractor |
Company | Employee Type | First Name | Last Name | Status |
ABC | Contractor | User1 | Lastname1 | Active |
ABC | Contractor | User2 | Lastname2 | Active |
XYZ | Contractor | User3 | Lastname3 | Inactive |
XYZ | Contractor | User4 | Lastname4 | Inactive |
====================================================================================
Note: I do see that there is a "FIltered by" parameter built into the templates but I am unsure how to use this parameter or the syntax. I looked at other standard reports and the forum but was unsure of the functionality as I am using a VI_Reporting_Template_landscape_Params that has this "Filtered by" parameter.
Is there a forum discussion or documentation that would help explain this functionality for displaying the parameter values?
Thank you,
