Trying to set up some reports to run as "scheduled" every other week so setting them up in windows task scheduler to submit the URL and create a new instance, I have that working fine, including the login, but the report has parameters - and when I try to pass the parameters in the URL it still brings up the window and asks for them to be filled in. Version of RS is 10.1.
Here is what is being passed as part of the string: &FiscalYear=2013&AccountingPeriod=4
Those are the parameters defined in the report - and if those are filled in if the report is scheduled normally it works fine. But can't seem to pass these values in...?

It's been a while, but I found this in my notes:
Report formula hyperlink
When parameters are passed, add &Dobeforeevent=false to the URL to prevent LBI from displaying the parameter entry page,
Here's an example from a working report's hyperlink to another report:
formula="https://xxx.xxx.edu:9443/ers/ersRequestHandler.jsp?CMD=VIEW&NewReport=true&Dobeforeevent=false&GroupTree=false&REPORTNAME="
This parm string is appended to the above to form the final hyperlink:
formula = {@ServerName} & "4JEI003" & _
"&_R=L" & _
"&_E=" & cstr({Command.EMPLOYEE},"#") & _
"&_S=" & {?_L}

Thanks mike - that is still prompting for the parameters. But I'm not quite sure - are you also passing parameters in your URL? Is that the second part of your formula?

Actually the Dobeforeevent=false did the trick - when I reran it I must have fat fingered the URL. After looking at it and figuring that out it ran fine. Thanks again!!
