It would be nice to see a way to set package variables before running the report. For example:
date_utils_pkg.set_date_tbl_inputs( p_start_dt => :p_start_dt,
p_end_dt => :p_end_dt,
p_iteration_type => :p_iteration_type);
This is done programatically by the framework (to simplify queries that run against Daily, Monthly, and Annual subreports). However, it means that the report cannot be tested in iReport.

The best way to do it is to write a plugin or to provide a custom query executer to perform the required query before the report execution.
