Report designer; parameters dont sem to be triggering

Hi ​@kdolgner ,

When you say that the parameters aren't triggering, do you mean that the default values aren't populating or that the search conditions aren't working?  Please post one or more screenshots to clarify what you are seeing.

welp i was breaking the CustomerID futher and i can’t replicate what i was seeing but the date still is not working. I have it set for the last 31 days

but i see everything that the GI sees, which is everything in acu back to June

I’m just assuming i did not set up the parameters right somewhere. Do they also need to be established in the GI?

Hi ​@kdolgner ,

Once you export a GI to create a new report, the report is disconnected from the GI.  In the Report Designer you use the Filters tab to define the data conditions based on the parameters.  You should be able to see an example on the existing report that you copied, something like this:

Hope this helps!

alright. i totally have seen this and thought it was to break the GI down further. okay. I will start on this project tomorrow lol.

Do the Filters tell the parameters how to work based on the info i assign in it?

marking this as best answer.

Thank you so much. I appreciate your help!
