Error in running scheduled script from suitelet form script in Suitescript 2.0?

Question

I m new in suitescripts. I have made a Suitelet Form script with 3 fields which will act as filters on the scheduled script. The scheduled script in sending the PDF file to a certain email after filtering the 3 values of suit let script from my saved search. When I hit the button on suitelet form, after entering the fields, the scheduled script goes on processing for 1 hour and then gets failed. I think I have placed the wrong filters in the loading of My saved search in my scheduled script. The saved search (customsearch_mx_itemsearch) is without any filters or criteria. Please help if anyone knows. Thank you

My Suitelet form Script:

define(['N/ui/serverWidget', 'N/search', 'N/render', 'N/runtime', 'N/file', 'N/task'],
  function (ui, search, render, runtime, file, task) {
    /**
     * main function for suitelet
     * @param {object} ctx

    function onRequest(ctx) {

      var req = ctx.request;
      var res = ctx.response;
      var param = req.parameters;
      /**
       * create form is creating the UI for report generation
       */
      if (req.method === 'GET') {
        // createForm(req, res, param);
        createForm(req, res, param);
      } else {
        generateReport(req, res, param);

You have the req, res, and param arguments defined for generateReport(), but you aren't actually populating them when you call generateReport() within execute(). You will need to pass values for those parameters.
