We have a plugin we wrote with some custom SQL reports – this one uses a string parameter for an EADID or list of EADIDs -

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">We've been asked to create a custom report that allows the user running it to input a string which is then used to search across various fields. I've checked through the pre-existing
reports, and through several reports created by other institutions, but I haven't found an example of a report accepting a string parameter (only booleans and dates). I see from e.g. <a href="https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/75000415aa5ee60411c6caf012042af4fc157d00/frontend/app/views/jobs/_form.html.erb*L121__;Iw!!Dq0X2DkFhyF93HkjWTBQKhk!GX75QheNm0-XxIApINdOyeac54bS2ZjNyPlm_nxqTYFfTBABH9vDI0OxgolnoLIKYgcArjCl$">https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/blob/75000415aa5ee60411c6caf012042af4fc157d00/frontend/app/views/jobs/_form.html.erb#L121</a>
that it should be possible to use a custom partial for different data types but nothing I've tried has worked so far. Is anyone doing anything like this, and might they have an example of it working?</span><o:p></o:p></p>
