About the parameter value provider type settings for a custom report
If the query of a custom report includes parameters, you can define the type of the parameter value provider. To define the type of the parameter value provider you need to select the appropriate type from the available types. The available value provider types depend on the type of parameter that is selected. The value provider is the UI component or method that lets the user set the parameter value, or that enables the system to obtain the appropriate value. For example, a drop-down list UI component lets the user choose the appropriate parameter value from a list of valid values.
