SET @LanguageID =1
SET @Extension = NULL
SET @Delimiter = NULL

INSERT dbo.ReportDefinition (ProcedureName, ReportDescription, ProcessRunTypeID, Priority,

DatabaseKey, ReportType, ReportNumber,ProductID,GlobalFile)
SELECT @ProcedureName,'Customer Equity Summary',1,
1,@DatabaseKey,@ReportType,'736',
Null,0

DECLARE @ReportDefinitionID Int

SET @ReportDefinitionID = @@IDENTITY ;

INSERT dbo.ReportDefinitionParameter SELECT @ReportDefinitionID,'@ClientID'

INSERT dbo.ReportDefinitionParameter SELECT @ReportDefinitionID,'@FileName'
INSERT dbo.ReportDefinitionParameter SELECT @ReportDefinitionID,'@GroupType'
INSERT dbo.ReportDefinitionParameter SELECT @ReportDefinitionID,'@ProcessDate'
INSERT dbo.ReportDefinitionParameter SELECT @ReportDefinitionID,'@RepCode'

INSERT INTO dbo.RSParameter (ReportNumber,ParameterName,

DisplayType,DisplayOrder,Description,DefaultValue, StoredProcedure)
