Hi vbattu,
According to your description, you want to select some records in the report when export it to Excel. To achieve the goal, we can add a parameter to filter certain rows by following steps:
Add an additional Multi-value parameter to the report.
Set the Available Values and Default Values are all got from a field which can be used to select the records in the current dataset.
Add a Filter based on the new parameter in the tablix to filter the rows.
The parameter does not affect the data when we view the report. While we can use the parameter to select certain rows when we want to export the report to Excel.
If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,
