Report parameters are displayed in the Manager when a subscribable report is added. You can make further changes to these report parameters assuming they can be overwritten. That means, you specify which report parameters can be viewed or overwritten by Web Portal users and define parameter values.
To edit report parameters
-
In the Manager, select the subscribable report in the Report Subscriptions | Subscribable report category.
-
Select the Change master data task.
-
Select the report parameter on the Parameter tab on the left side of the master data form to load the parameter properties.
TIP: The actual parameter values are shown next to the fields and menus.
Use the following settings when editing subscribable reports to inherit parameter properties:
-
Value inherited
This value is provided by a simple menu on the form for various parameter properties.
-
Empty
Leave the input field for menu item empty. This ensures that the parameter property settings are inherited from the report.
IMPORTANT: If a preprocessor condition is given in a subscribable report, you must ensure that all report parameters depending on this preprocessor condition have a default value in the underlying report in the Report Editor. If the value query is used for a report parameter type, this must be overwritten with the value fixed in the subscribable report. Otherwise, errors may occur when the report is generated.
