To incorporate this, you would need to do this with the Jet functions. For instance, the start date, end date, and company here are retrieving values specified in the report options.

To use your report options with your jet functions, select the cell you are using. in this case, we want the End Date to be retrieved from the report options. Select that cell

Then click on report options. Then a pop-up comes up asking you to choose one of the options created

You can see the end date is now referencing the end date specified in the report options
