What is the method to display two distinct report templates depending on the chosen parameters

What method is to display two distinct report templates depending on the parameters in a paginated report?

At the report parameter level, there will be a parameter called 'select student'. By default, the first option in this parameter will be 'ALL', and the rest of the options will be a list of student names.

1. The default selection for the Student option will be 'ALL', and in this scenario, a comprehensive aggregated data template containing the batch number, class strength, and list of all student names will be shown.

2. When a specific student is selected in the Paramter option, a different template displaying the details of the chosen student will be presented.

How do we achieve this in the Paginated report under-report builder?

Hi, @Lakshmanan1 

Based on your description, I've used the following sample data:

vjianpengmsft_0-1724208048621.png

I created a parameter in Report Builder with all the customer names and ALL options:

At the same time, I created two template tables:

Open the Properties toolbar, select the entire table and find the Visibility option:

vjianpengmsft_3-1724208341342.png

=Parameters!Name.Value<>"ALL"

vjianpengmsft_4-1724208377256.png

When I select a specific student for the entire parameter, this table is hidden, and another table is displayed:

I'm using a SQL Server source, and I don't have the ALL student in my data source, so I modified my SQL query to show all the data when ALL is selected:

Here are the results:
