Dashboard Report with Default value

Created an interface rule (see code attached) that displays information via a series of query rules (require a date or datetime value) and a default date value that can be changed by the user. The interface rule works great, but when I associate it with a Report, I get this error. 

Error Evaluating UI Expression Expression evaluation error at function rule!psh_disapprovedDashboard: Rule 'psh_disapproveddashboard' has 1 parameters, but instead passed 0 parameters.

I'm assuming it's because it's looking for the user input for 'ri!year_int'.  I specifically set a default value for this parameter in the interface rule so data would display regardless of whether or not the user changes the year.  Why won't this work when I associate the rule with a 'Report' object? Do I have to make it a

=load(
  ri!year_int: if(isnull(ri!year_int), year(now())-5, ri!year_int), 
  local!noByItobProducts: rule!psh_getNoByItobProducts(datetime(ri!year_int, month(now()), day(now()), 0, 0, 0)),
