Bypassing the report params dialog

mailtorake

Hi,
Our front-end has about 4 reports, which share the same report parameters.
Parameters are as follows:
1. Param1 --> multi selectable list box
2. Param2 --> date of the format mm/dd/yy
3. Param3 --> date of the format mm/dd/yy

Getting the report params dialog for the first time is fine, but how can I avoid or bypass the params dialog when I click on other reports?

Storing the params in the session and populating the reports is an answer, but I couldn't default the first parameter with comma separated values (since its a multi selectable) and the user still has to click on the "OK" button to run the report.

How can I make the dialog appear only once? Any kind of help or pointers are greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Rakesh

Hi Rakesh,

If you have default values or pass the values for the parameters through the URL, you should be able to bypass the parameter page by setting the URL parameter &__parameterpage=false

Hope this helps.
