What is parameter maps & Session parameter?

Answer Posted / ranga

Parameter maps: We are using Parameters Maps to secure data
within our environment, so based on who runs the report,
they will only see data specific to their group within the
Parameter Map they are assigned to. We'd like to try and
display this information in the footer of the reports if
possible.

Session parameters:Session parameters are macros available
in either Framework Manager or in Report Studio that can be
used to dynamically determine and display information about
a user's session. This can be especially handy for general
display purposes (such as a person's name) or for security
implementation.
