Set min date as default value in paginated report parameter

Hi there, 

 

I am new to building paginated reports and I am struggeling with setting min and max dates as default values in my paginated report values.

 

I tried these 2 expressions in the Report Parameter Properties / Default Values but I get different error messages.

 

=First(Fields!TimeGenerated.Value, "DataSet1")

A 'Value' expression used for the report parameter 'FromAPIMTimeGenerated' refers to a field. Fields cannot be used in report parameter expressions.

 

=Min(Parameters!FromAPIMTimeGenerated.Value)

A 'Value' expression used for the report parameter 'FromAPIMTimeGenerated' includes an aggregate or lookup function. Aggregate and lookup functions cannot be used in report parameter expressions.

 

How can I set the min date as a default value here?

 

Thanks

Hi @Anonymous,

Perhaps you can take look at the following links about setting 'default value', 'use parameter in expression' if they helps:

Using Report Parameters in Expressions Explained - Telerik Reporting

Add, change, or delete default values for a paginated report parameter - Microsoft Report Builder & Power BI Report Builder | Microsoft Learn

In addition, this seem nor related to report builder usages, I'd like to suggest you post at the RS sub forum to get better support.
