SSRS - Is there a way to set up a parameter in SSRS that allows a Blackbaud search screen icon (like searching for a selection) to be used to pick a query built selection. I can do it in a global change spec but have never tried to do it for a parameter field in an SSRS report. Is it possible?

    Yes you can. You will need to add a parameter in the RDL, then in the report spec you will add a form field with the FieldID matching the parameter name in the RDL. Inside the field you can designate a search list same as you would in a Global Change. Here is the documentation on reports and the report spec, let me know if you have any questions!
