How to automatically populate same report parameter with different values ?

[ntjp]

Hi,
I'm currently using Jasperserver community edition and I have the following issue:
I have 1 JRXML file (let's call it "template1") with one parameter (let's call it "parameter1"). I have 3 different reports (let's call them "Report1", "Report2", "Report3") all based on that same "template1" JRXML file.
For "Report1", I would like to automatically pass to parameter1 the value "Report1", for "Report2" automatically pass to that same parameter1 the value "Report2" etc...

Any way to achieve that goal ?

Regards

Karl

Note1: The reason why the parameter should be automatically populated is because that parameter doesn't make much sense to the end-user
Note2: The reason why I don't want to create 3 slightly different JRXML files, is because I'm already managing a large number of different JRXML files.

I don't know that this is possible without any differences between the jrxml files.  A modification to the default value of the parameter would be necessary to get it to use a particular value without the user selecting a value from an input control.
