SSRS -- Multi-value parameter string manipulation

Context: I have an SSRS report with a multi-value parameter. The report passes the multi-value parameter to a stored procedure that assigns it to a variable of an nvarchar type. This variable contains unique IDs that map to values in the DB that are actually stored as an int data type.

Details: Basically I need to a) Modify the ssrs report to allow for multi-value entry (which i've already done) b) split_string the nvarchar variable into consumable int type pieces c) process the query with these pieces d) re-construct the string to present the query results in a concatenated fashion per user requirements

Questions: Can you please assist in finding the most efficient way to perform these transformations in the proc I've (attempted) to draft below?

Side note: While I've found some posts related to handling multi-value ssrs parameters in procs here, here and here -- they aren't fixes that apply to my specific scenario given the multiple rounds of transformation needed.

/*This is the parameter supplied by the SSRS report that needs to be split, just declared here for commentary purposes
DECLARE @p_catalog_id nvarchar(max);
SET @p_catalog_id = '163650,163651,163652,163653,163654,163655,163656,163657,310415';

if your database is 2016 then you can just use string_split: Replace

and d.Catalog_ID = @p_catalog_id

with

and CAST(d.Catalog_ID as varchar(10)) IN (SELECT value FROM STRING_SPLIT(@p_catalog_id, ',')

Otherwise i'd suggest you use the FOR XML PATH approach - lots of egs out there & others too: https://sqlperformance.com/2012/07/t-sql-queries/split-strings
