→‎Referencing criteria entered in the same report

==Referencing criteria entered in the same report==

* If you ever need to reference the user entered criteria within the same report, you can use the '''@argx@''' variable where x = 1,2,3.. depending on what number the argument is. The idea is similar to using @args[1]@ if [[Passing Prompt Criteria to a Sub-Report|referencing the criteria within a sub-report ]] but this is for a single report.

* This syntax can be used within '''Calculated Field''' and '''Criteria'''.

Sample A sample use case can would be if you are prompting for a date range in the report, but within another column of the report you want to use the user -entered date to further limit the records using ''date_add, '' or ''date_sub''.
