I was wondering that when creating a report - with parameters - the data is kind of presented as static (report/overview which can be printed, export ect).

Is there a way to make the results dynamic and link back to the actual database.

Example:
Software EPR solution (using IE8) has debtors (debtornumber and other data).
The Reporting Services presents the debtor data/details

Is there a way to go back into IE8 ERP soltuion - debtor card when clicking on the debtornumber?

Do I and how do I have to adjust the Reporting Services? Or is there something else?

Actually, any data that can be connected to via ODBC can be brought in. After creating an ODBC datasource (under control panel/admin tools) create a new Data Source in SSRS with type of ODBC and point back to what you created. Create the new report based upon that and link on navigation "jump to report". I used to connect from SSRS report to live ERP data on an AS400 (iSeries) all the time.
