Introduction

This example demonstrates how to filter the data in a BIRT report at runtime by using report and data set parameters. Report parameters allow end-users to interactively filter the report’s data to gain deeper insights. The user is guided through the steps to add a dataset parameter and a report parameter.

The report list quantities of stock. The list of returned products is culled, by adding a where clause to the select statement and using a data set parameter. The data set parameter is then linked with a report parameter.
