SSRS Call a second report with params in current report

I have read of linked reports where the user has to click on an element in a report to call for the next one. I do NOT WANT any user reaction required.

My ERP system makes a BOL report. That report has all the params I need to pass to a second report the Certificate of Analysis.

To me a subreport is on the same report itself. What is the term for this second report?

TIA

SSRS offer drillthrough reports, which sound like what you're after.

Drillthrough Reports

A drillthrough report is a report that a user opens by clicking a link within another report.

To set one up, right click on a report element and set Action -> Go To Report and set it to the required drillthrough report.

You can set up the drillthrough report to accept parameters or fields from a Dataset in the parent report as required.
