    Reports with Parameters

    How can I specify that a report requires parameters?  I have a particular report that, when run, needs to prompt the user for a date range and then do something accordingly (a very common scenario in reporting).  I have looked at the docs for Active Reports and have tried the syntax described there, but it does not work for me and I get a message that the SQL is invalid.  For example, the AR docs say to use a SQL statement similar to the following:

    select * from MyTable where SomeDateField >= <%StartDate%> and SomeDateField < <%EndDate%>

    How can I have user specified parameters in my reports from OnTime?  I'm sure I'm just missing something, but I would have thought it would have been more obvious.

    Re: Reports with Parameters

    At this time, the OnTime application does not have the necessary functionality for users to add report parameters in their custom reports. This has been added to our customer feedback section as a possible feature enhancement of OnTime in the near future.

     

    Thank you,
