What is parameter maps & Session parameter?
Answers were Sorted based on User's Feedback
Answer / 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.

Answer / nasa
Parameter Maps is nothing but set of key and value pairs...
if i have the data in diff languages and revenue with diff currency...
now if i need to change all the languages and currency into one particular language or currency we can change by using parameter maps.
i don't want to change, automatically it has to be change.. into our local language and currency based on our system.. use Session Parameters..
So when you use session parameters by default automatically all languages and currency will be change into English and Indian Currency...........

Answer / jd
session parameters are the values that tell you about the
session properties like the username and the run locale
parameter maps are used to pass the value of one parameter
to another. like in a drill through report you can have
parameter maps so that the value and type of parameter
matches that of the parameter in the drill through report.
