How to pass parameters to a report ? Do you have to register them with AOL?

You can define parameters in the define concurrent program form. There is no need to register the parameters with AOL. But you may have to register the value sets for those parameters.

Hi,
There is no need to register your parameters.There can be verious different reports and for them you might need to set up thousand of different paramaters, how would register them all ?..
Anyways, in report builder in design time, use user parameter to set up the parameters which you either pass from concurrent program or can be picked up from profile options.
Now, when you define your concurrent program to which the report is attached, define your parameters. remeber to use concurrent_request_id as one of the user parameters. You do not need to use this mandatory parameter in the define program screen
