RE: Question 1: Before you actually schedule a report, from the Central Management Console select the report, select the "Process" tab and the "Parameters" link under that tab, and enter the appropriate parameter information. Once that's done, anytime you schedule the report to run, it should use those parameter values/assignments. (Note: You'll have to have permissions/access to modify the report parameters, which means you may have to log into the CMC using an Admin account.)

RE: Question 2: Make sure that the account under which you are scheduling the report has access to do so. Again, going into the CMC, select the report in question and go to the "Rights" tab. Under that tab should be a list of all the user groups you have. At this point you'll basically have to determine what account(s)/group(s) should have access to schedule reports, and select those accounts/groups and drill-down into their respective rights and select to Grant the scheduling right.

Hope that makes sense and helps!
