Wizard can do the job.

When it comes to the "Query" part of the job, type the SELECT statement and - in the WHERE clause - name a parameter using a colon sign in front of it, such as
SELECT ename 
FROM emp
WHERE deptno = :parameter_deptno

Wizard will automatically create a parameter (you can revise its properties later).

First create a parameter in the name you want.

then go to the build parameter

select the created parameter

then write the query as

select * from emp where deptno=:parmater_name;

then you will get the report in such a style you want
