Shall you? Depends on your requirements. There are times when it is very handy. There are other times when it doesn't make sense.

If you decide to use it, read up on the documentation on how to pass parameters. Essentially, that's all you're doing.

Build a huge string filling in the user-selected parameters:

EX: ' WHERE emp_id = '||to_char(:p_emp_id);

Pass that string to your report.

In your report, change your data model:

SELECT yourfields
FROM your_table
&p_where

Where p_where is the parameter you passed.
