&lt;p&gt;you are try to call the process model on the report interface based on that values, you are try to updating the X-AXIS&amp;nbsp;items in reports,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;yes, it is possible, in your reports you can place one &lt;strong&gt;refresh&lt;/strong&gt; kind of button, when user call the process model (anyway you updating those value in DB right)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;load the data based on the query rule instead of local variables. So, place loca!check value if it is null display your local variables otherwise display queryrule values.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hope it will help you&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Regards,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bhanu&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
