Hi,

I have a filter page with around 10 filters in an HTML page.
So when i select the filter values ,i display description but i pass the IDs to the report because IDs are indexed in database and report will run fast.
My problem is i want to display the parameters selected as description in report footer,but from the filter parameters i get only IDs.

What is the simple way to do that?

Create an included fex that is only used to retrieve the value of the selected parameter to then be displayed.
I have several fex that only do that : retrieve the description of a selected parameter.

Another way is to "Send Display value" within the passed parameter. It's a check mark in the Settings of the control.
But in this case your are loosing the code/id and only have the value.
