Parameters for Query Builder report

When a Query Builder report requires input parameters, the Report Parameters window is displayed.

To display the Report Parameters window, select Report > query builder type report. If the report requires input parameters, the window is displayed.

Query Builder type reports are identified with a Query Builder report icon.

A parameter can be entered and edited. The OK button will accept the parameter. The Cancel button will end preparation of the report. When the parameters are accepted a report will be displayed.

Query Builder type reports that require multiple parameters will have a separate parameter window appear for each parameter.

Communicare will 'remember' the values entered by you when you last used a parameter of the same name. For example, if you entered the value '01/01/2006' for the parameter 'First Date to Report', any other query requiring that parameter will have that value entered by default.
