4.2.1 Parameters

A parameter is any input that you enter. Run the 'Parameters' report.

 

Walkthrough

You see the first set of parameter choices in the screenshot. Once the state is chosen from the drop-down option box, the second drop-down option box will contain client cities in the state that was selected.

1. In the 'State' drop-down, select 'NJ'. The 'City' drop-down now contains cities within New Jersey. Change the state to 'CO', and select 'Boulder' for the city. Now 'Submit' your selections.

 

2. You will see the next set of parameters. Here you will again narrow the scope of the report to be generated. (We chose 'Category'.) Click Submit.

 

Note: Multiple options can be selected by holding down the CTRL key on your keyboard while selecting indi­vidual options, or the SHIFT key to choose consecutive options.

3. Now you have a third set of parameters to choose, categories of products. (We chose 'Games', 'Educational', and 'Graphics'.) Click Submit.

 

4. The report is in the Display panel, but there is still one more parameter available, in the upper right corner under the InetSoft logo.

 

5. Choose 'Bar' from the drop-down to change the charts.
