Select Bursting Reports
This option is available when there are bursting reports in the current report. Select the bursting report you schedule to run. You can select only one bursting report at a time.

Edit the values according to your requirement. You may specify parameter values in these ways.
If you have not yet set the default values on the server, or if you did but your saved default values cannot fully match the current parameters, all the parameters will use their default values specified in the parameters' definition as the initial values.
If no parameter is used in the report, "No Parameter Needed" will be displayed here.
