Add Parameters Back to Report Headers in Reports with Cover Pages

Please add report parameters back to the report header section in reports with cover pages.  When the cover page is hidden, the parameters used to run the report are also hidden and users can't see what parameters were used.  We've hidden cover pages by default and adding all parameters back to the report headers is arduous, especially the multi-value parameters which require extra work to parse to a readable format.

    Jane,

     

    You might want to consider adding back a 6.17 Version of the reports that you need. If you have a backup of the 6.17 reports it's easy to add them back.  

     

    The issue with adding multi-value parameter selections back into the header is that you can have tens or hundreds of selections. Whereas in the 6.17 version you only had to  add the selected range to the header. So I can see why Viewpoint added the cover page that everyone seems to despise.
