An have an MVC app with a report viewer control that displays a report. The report has links in it that navigate to another report. The parameters are the same for both reports with the exception of one additional parameter for the drillthrough. I am programatically passing the parameters to the parent report from my MVC app. I want the user to be able to modify the parameter selection and refresh the drillthough report without having to go back to the parent report. Is this possible?

Hello Katherine,
On creating the NavigateToReportAction you can specify a target report and you can map the target report's parameters to fields, parameters, expressions of the main report. You can make the target report's parameters visible in order to have editors for them in the viewer when the user navigates to that report.
If you need further help, please elaborate on the scenario and how actions are configured.

Yes, I have a NavigateToReportAction that passes the parameters from the parent report to the target report. The parameters are initially passed to the parent report programmatically from my MVC app. I'm using HTML inputs for the parameters since they look nicer than the report parameters. The problem is that if they have navigated to the target report from the parent report (using the NavigateToReportAction), the user can't change the parameters using the HTML inputs without it going back to the parent report. I would like to a way for them to change the parameters and stay on the target report, like using javascript to refresh the report with the new parameters. I also looked at using a report book, but I don't like that it prints all of the reports instead of just the current report.

Hello Katherine,
If you prefer to use custom UI to provide values to report parameters, test replacing the NavigateToReportAction with a Hyperlink action. You will open a new page with another viewer by using this action, which will allow users to have custom UI loaded for the current report.
