  No, this is not possible.
  
  You can call a codeunit with a Record only.
  
  If you want to use a parameter you need to create a new function withing the codeunit and define the codeunit as variable before you call it.

  or use a record variable that has a field of the datatype that you need .

  Yes, you can do that, but please not with a standard NAV codeunit. You can mess things up terribly.

  of course it is much easier to screw it up than to do it right.
  
  Typically, you would only do CODEUNIT.RUN if you have a legitimate record variable to send. If you don't then you write a function (or more precisely a 'procedure') that can accept your parameters.
  
  You could also write some functions to set global variables from another object. Then you create your codeunit as a global codeunit variable, and you call those functions. Then after the globals are set you call codeunit.RUN.
