Watermarks are defined on the report properties session under the Watermarks tab. Let’s take a look at the screen that enable us to control watermarks:

Watermark tab on report properties

Like background images, watermarks can also be static or dynamic.

The value of a dynamic watermark may be provided through the results of an SQL query referenced in the fields query source and columns. Likewise, the value of a parameter value passed to the report at run-time can also be displayed by selecting parameter query in the Query Source field and entering the name of the parameter in the Column field.

The characteristics of the watermark, its size, font, and opacity, are controlled by the other fields on the Watermark tab.
