Hi romex,
By design, SQL Server Reporting Services(SSRS) is used for rendering(showing) data only. Generally, we use the report parameters to capture the user's input.
In the case, we want to allow the use the input some values to update the data in the database, and then refresh the report to show the latest data, we need to implement a custom .NET application. In the .NET application, capture the user's input, update
them in the data source, and then use the ReportViewer control to render the report.
