First, thank you for taking the time to read this, I am fairly well experienced with most versions of MSSQL, but not so much with Oracle and PL SQL.

My problem and question are this:
I have a SSRS report in MSSQK2k12 that is calling a stored proc on an Oracle 11x db. there are several params passed in that are used in the where clause, I need to add one more param ( a simple Y/N) that will add additional filters to the where clause, effectively saying at the report prompt 'do you want to see *all* parts? (Y/N). A 'Y' answer will run the proc nearly wide open, including parts that have no inventory, parts on hand, but already sold, parts no longer active. A 'N' response will pass filters that require available inventory, valid current part class, etc.
 I have attempted a half-dozen seemingly good solutions, to no avail. I have asked an associate (who is well versed in PLSQL) for his advice, his resulting 'DECODE' addition did nothing. I would like to request advice/assistance that does not involve months of study, as I only have a few days to finish. Please note, the original SP was not my work, I have inherited from predecessor would did/could not complete. Stored procedure (Scrubbed) attached
