Narrative Reporting Parameters

I'm currently using the Narrative Reporting MarketPlace Solution on OS version 8.4 and have successfully integrated Cube Views, Content, and other artifacts using QuickParts. However, I'm facing several challenges:

Member Prompts on Report Checkout/Edits: Despite configuring parameters at both the report and report group levels, I continue to receive member prompts from the cube view every time I check out or modify a report. This differs from the expected behavior in guided reporting and dashboards, where parameters are supplied automatically. Is this expected, or is there a workaround to prevent these prompts?

    Additional Challegnes

    XFCell Conversion to String: Every refresh turns XFCells into strings, forcing a repetitive process of copying and pasting to maintain report integrity. I've tried using Excel Ranges attached via QuickParts as a workaround, but it compromises user experience. Is there a more efficient solution for managing XFCells?

    Purpose of Parameter Property: Can you clarify what the Parameter property is intended for in both Report Groups and Reports within Narrative Reporting?
