Filter parent record selector on a grid edit within a form

Non intuitively, you need to create a form.  I suggest that you call the form Grid Edit.

List the fields on the form in the order you want to be columns in Grid Edit. Use the usual Forms control to have filtered drop downs.  Then in the form usage section, set that form to either be used for all grid edit by Role (but that may be too restrictive!) so more likely set it to be used just on certain reports for Grid Edit  ....  ie what ever report is being used as the embedded report on the form, set that report to use that form for for Grid Edit.
