   hi support
   report structure listed below:
   Customer-a
   report-1
   report-2
   report-3
   Customer-b
   report-1
   report-2
   report-3
   .
   .
   .
   report-1 in Customer-a call sp_DBR_report-1-a
   report-1 in Customer-b call sp_DBR-report-1-b

   There is only different with Customer between sp_DBR-report-1-a and sp_DBR-report-1-b
   ,now i want to migrate two procedure to one called sp_DBR-report-1,because the number of customer will raised up quickly,i can't image if i create a separately stored procedure for each customer, So my question is: how to get the CustomerID(something like this) from mydbr to stored procedure,if i use parameter of stored procedure,Any Customer can look others data via entering other customer's ID(or something like this),so i can't use it ,because i don't to let customer-a view customer-b's data ,It is a secure data

   Is there any way to implement my requirement?

   Derek,
   There is no need to create a separate linked report for each customer. You can pass the CustomerID from the report list to the linked report.

   When you list the reports for each customer, please include the CustomerID into the list. If you do not want to show the ID, you can choose to hide it. Once user clicks the report row, you can pass the CustomerID from that row to the linked report.

   hi Support,
   Seems the link report will works, In that way, we stil need to create separately report but each Customer,so my another question is: do we have any way to pass the username(loged into the mydbr) to stored procedure (hidely),then i do not need to create separately report for each customer, i only need to create 3 reports,when a customer click one row(one report), mydbr will
   pass username(login name) to stored procedure,so the procedure can return the result depending on the username,it will be better if it is possible,Could you help to look into this ! we really need this feature.

   Thanks very much!

   To avoid creating multiple reports you need to pas the CustomerID to the linked procedure.

   select 'dbr.hidecolumns', 2;
   
   select 'dbr.report', 'sp_DBR_linkedReport',  'inReportID=1', 'inCustomerID=3'
   
   select ReportName, ReportID, CustomerID
   
   from myreports;
   
   

   the linked report would be form of:

   create procedure sp_DBR_linkedReport( inReportID int, inCustomerID int )
   
   begin
   
   ...

   Alternatively you can pass the login name automatically simply by introducing a 'inLogin varchar(30)' variable to the report. myDBR will automatically fill in the variable with login name.

   The following linked report is now working, there is no arrow button on the right
   why?

   delimiter //
   create procedure sp_DBR_customer_entry(inLogin varchar(30))
   begin

   select 'dbr.report', 'sp_DBR_film','inFilmID=2';
   select name,group_id from mydbr_groups ;

   end
   //
   delimiter ;

   In order the linked report (sp_DBR_film) to be shown, couple of things needs to be in place:

   1. The report (sp_DBR_film in the example) needs to be attached to the myDBR structure
   2. User needs to have permission to run the report (sp_DBR_film)

   In the example you do not seem to use the inLogin-parameter in the report. Secondly, the report would passing group_id as inFilmID to the linked sp_DBR_film report.

   It works now, the other quesiton is: how to diable the pop menu when you click the arrow button
   i have listed all the reports,and do not need the pop-up menu. it will make user comfortable if there is a way to disable it.

   Good that you got it working.

   The popup is always there so the user sees which linked report (s)he is about to run. With the popup, the user interaction is the same whether there is one or multiple reports linked.

   Hi support
   Now i have 3 report for each of 50 customer
   report-a (3 parameter)
   report-b (2 parameter)
   report-c (1 parameter)

   Now i created an procedure as entry point,call proc-entry
   in this proc-entry, i listed all 3 report 1 link report
   and pass reportid and customer id to :q

   select 'dbr.report', 'sp_DBR_linkedReport','inReportID=2','inCustomer=3';
   select 'report-a' as Report,1 as ReportID,inLogin as Customer union
   select 'report-b' as Report,2 as ReportID,inLogin as Customer union
   select 'report-c' as Report,3 as ReportID,inLogin as Customer ;

   in procedure sp_DBR_linkedReport,i need to call separate procedure for report-a
   or report-b or report-c depend on reportID
   if reportid=1
   call sp_DBR_cust_report-a(1,5,5);
   if reportid=2
   call sp_DBR_cust_report-b('derek','wang');
   if reportid=3
   call sp_DBR_cust_report-a(1);

   My question is:
   How to pass various parameter? it is no way to enter parameter in entry point (proc-entry), because there are various parameter for different report,if i use
   the linked report to generate all data, it is possible to entering parameter,but
   how to hide customerID parameter ?i don't want customerA to see customerB's data, if the linkedReport is a proxy,then linkedReport to call really report procedure,then how to let user entering parameters ?

    Couple of things:

    1. What are the parameters needed for report-a, b and c? Where do they come from?
    2. You do not need to pass inLogin as a linked parameter, you can simply introduce it in sp_DBR_linkedReport as a parameter and myDBR will take care of it.
    3. Could you not just show report-a, b, and c as direct reports since only thing proc-entry and linkedReport seem to do is to guide the customer to the reports a,b and c.

    1.For example:
    report-a has 3 parameter, which is 1.reportid,2 customerID, 3 duration
    report-b has 2 parameter: which is 1.firstname,2 lastname,3,customerID
    reoprt-c has 1 parameter: which is duraiton,customerID

    duration,fistname,lastname which is selected by customer
    reportid,customerID is just for identify the report and customer(which should not selected(visible) by customer.

    3. how should i do?could you give example to me ?

    Could be that we missed something but it looks like this:

    report-a
    - ReportID seems to be always 1 in your example so it does not need to be a parameter at all
    - CustomerID is the same as the user login id. This can be handled by myDBR using inLogin parameter.
    - Duration seems to be the only parameter user will need to select

    report-b
    - firstname and lastname are user selectable (could be a combined popup parameter in myDBR)
    - customerID is the same as the user login id (-> inLogin)

    report-c
    - Duration is a user selectable parameter
    - customerID is the same as the user login id (-> inLogin)
