Easy:

For ease of discussion, let's say your parameter fields are called p1,
p2, p3, p4, p5.
Now, you need to create a display only field called tmpQual.

First, create an active link or filter that calls a guide to set the
tmpQual field. The guide will contain the following active links or
filters.

Active Link 1:
        Run If p1 is not $NULL$
        Sets tmpQual = "'Serial Number' = " + $p1$

Active Link 2:
        Run If p2 is not $NULL$ and tmpQual is not $NULL$
        Sets tmpQual = $tmpQual$ + " AND 'ci name' = " + $p2$

Active Link 3:
        Run if p2 is not $NULL$ AND tmpQual is $NULL$
        Sets tmpQual = "'ci name' = " + $p2$

Active Link 4:
        Run if p3 is not $NULL$ and tmpQual is not $NULL$
        Sets tmpQual = $tmpQual$ + " AND 'company name' = " + $p3$

Active Link 5:
        Run if p3 is not $NULL$ and tmpQual is $NULL$
        Sets tmpQual = "'company name' = " + $p3$

And so on, you'll need to create a few more to get each field taken care
of.

The last thing you want to do is perform a table refresh. Basically,
your criteria on your table will just be EXTERNAL($tmpQual$)

Make sure to clear tmpQual and re-run the guide if the user makes a
change to any of the five fields.

You also might have to do some special escaping because of the single
quote within the double quote. Sometimes I do and sometimes I don't.

Hope this helps.

Subject: How to do this?

** 
I have 5 parameter fields I need to build a external qualification using
these 5 parameter fields 
First I need to check if they are null or value in there then then i
need to build a external qualification of the table using all the one
which has non null values. 
 
For ex: parameter fields are serial number, ci name, company name,
manufacture name and product category if any of them have value I need
to search asset table with external qualification 
 
Any suggestions ?
