Question: How to pass multiple values from picklist prompt to sub report filter
Answer: The sub-report only includes the first value. "When the sub-report query runs, it checks for the first row in the Customer Name column and shows only information for that customer. If you want a sub-report to show information for another row in the column, place the main report in a form frame that shows only one row at a time. When you insert the sub-report into the form frame as well, it changes as you click through the rows in the main report. For example, the main and sub-report above are both in a form frame that shows only one row of the Customer Name column at a time. Each time you scroll to another customer name, the sub-report shows only information for that customer." |

| By using the 'IN' operator in creation of a prompt we can create a sub report. When the prompt executes, you can select multiple values and the results from the sub-report will reflect those selected items. |
