I have many reports and each report has links Navigation which i am setting up by passing parameters to but another report. when client click on the report navigation link, it sends parameters to another report and opens up the report filled with passed parameters in text boxes (report parameters), but it won't generate report until user click on View Report button. These reports are direclty setup and running from Report Server.
Please let me know is there any option/solution to run reports automatically without clicking the view report button when the second report receive parameters from previous report?

In the child report, how did you configure the parameters? These should be set as hidden or internal. That way users cannot modify parameters and thus there is no need to click on the View Report button.
Need an answer? No, you need a question

I'd check to make sure you don't have a missing parameter.
If all the parameters are set, then the report will always fire.

The child parameter must have the parameter declared. In the main report text box properties (action section) make sure you Select the child report parameter and pass the parameter value. As long as you do this client is not required to click on View report button.
