Enable Saving Parameter Values
Enables saving parameter values for reuse next time when specifying parameter values in order to run reports.
For a report that has multiple parameters, the values of all the parameters specified at a time will be saved together as a group for the report. Here such group is also called a list. Selecting such a group as the value will apply the values in the group to all the corresponding parameters in the report.
When the Yes checkbox is selected, you need to choose a way of saving the parameter values: Manually or Automatically. When switching from one to the other and OK is clicked, all saved parameter values for the current user will be cleared.
The automatically saved parameter values groups will be available on the value drop-down list of each of those parameters next time when the same user is asked to specify parameter values for the same report. Selecting a group from any of the parameters' value lists will apply the saved group of values to all the parameters. A group on the value lists is a one-row values' set: it lists the values of the parameters in one row with blank to separate between parameters and the values are in an order same as the display order of the parameters.
