Unable to create the report databases (configuration)

$
0
0

Hello Experts,

I was trying to configure reporting service and unable to. The main issues

  1. I do not see any databases for reporting service
  2. even the SQL Server name is missing
  3. I tried to 'change databases' and was required to 'create a new reporting server database'
  4. as provided credentials to enable the reporting service connect to Engine it says connection cannot be made (I gave an account that has sysadmin power.... )
  5. basically the issue is the reporting server is not able to connect to SQL Server engine

Any help is appreciated in advance

Previous Year Expression in SSRS

$
0
0

I have 3 reports on one page, each report is the same but look at current year report 1 2010, report 2 2009 and report 3 2008

Report 1 looks at dataset1

Report 2 looks at dataset 2

Report 3 looks at dataset 3

Now the way I have done this at the moment is using a filter on each dataset

Expression = [Calendar_Year]

Operator '='

Value 2010

Basically I have hard coded these, which is ok for this current year but come next year the report will be out be a  year. I need to create an expression that does this dynamically. I was hoping to right something in each filter like below ( i know the syntax is incorrect)

=Year(getdate()yyyy) ------returns 2010

=Year(getdate()yyyy)-1 ------returns 2009

=Year(getdate()yyyy)-2  -----returns 2008

Hope you understand what I mean. I can do the following in SQL Server, if you run the below in SQL Server it will show the dates. I basically want an expression equivalent for an SSRS Expression

SELECT  (YEAR(getdate()))AS Year,
 (YEAR(getdate())-1)AS Year_1,
 (YEAR(getdate())-2)AS Year_2,
 (YEAR(getdate())-3)AS Year_3,
 (YEAR(getdate())-4)AS Year_4,
 (YEAR(getdate())-5)AS Year_5

Thanks

SSRS 2008 - Report Manager - Drop-Down menu gone missing

Hi All,

  I have been using SSRS for a while and when new subscriptions were required for a report, I used a drop down menu on each report and used the subscribe option.  Then this menu has disappeared from all reports.  Nothing fundamental has changed with the system.  Is this a setting that someone has changed?  

Any help much appreciated.

When I use calculation in generating reports, I get "NaN" and "Infinity" values, I wanted to avoid this and display "0" if the result of calculation is null or infinity..

I used the below calculation

=(Fields!approved_tier_cnt.Value)/(Fields!approved_cnt.Value)

Please let me know how to avoid "NaN" and "infinity", while displaying in reports

How to add a boolean report filter to my report.

I have checked others' questions and posts but nothing too helpful for my how-to question, so hoping your could help.

I have a report where I want the user to simply click true or false on whether or not to include a specific geographical location in the report. For example in the screenshot below, the user can choose to include Site number 1 in the column titled Location Level 2.  I have setup a boolean parameter, but not sure exactly where I create the expression to that it filters.  I am 2 weeks new to report builder 3.0, so sorry if this question is a bit basic for the forum.

SSRS 2008 R2 database running on SQL 2012 Database Engine?

Would it be OK to place a SSRS 2008 R2 database on a SQL 2012 DB Engine instance with the database running at a 2008 compatibility level and would this be a supported configuration? Cant seem to find this information anywhere.

Deployment did not replace RDL file

$

When I deployed my report using Visual Studio 2008 to SSRS 2008 R2, the new RDL file did not "take".  The date was changed, but the old version is still there.  The output pane in Visual Studio said it successfully deployed.  When I download the RDL from the Report Manager, it does not have the changes I made.

I have seen this happen in every SSRS shop I have ever been in.  The work around has always been either delete the RDL file and redeploy or just try deploying again.  I remember seeing a connect issue with this, but I cannot find it again.

Anyone know the connect issue link or a link to the work around that Microsoft recommends?

Thanks for your help!

Reporting on XML data that SSRS reads directly from SQLServer

$

In MS whitepaper

Reporting Services: Using XML and Web Service Data Sources

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa964129(SQL.90).aspx

 

 

It says you can take XML from SqlServer, pass that as a parameter to a subreport, and (in vague language I don't understand or precise language I misunderstand) that the subreport will be able to report on the data.

 

So this potentially could eliminate the need to read from a web service or URL. 

 

This starts and bottom of page 9.

 

Can anyone show a simple example of how to include data from an SQL Server - I'm with the author up to and including step 5 of the procedure, I can get a hunk of XML back from the server.  Now how do I make a subreport use it?

 

Thanks

matrix column: show 'Actuals' for previous completed months, show 'Budget' data for months in progress

$

Hi All!

I have a matrix table with a column group 'Month of Year'.

What I want to do is display for all months completed 'Actuals' data, and for all months not completed, comparing against todays() date, show 'Budget' data.

I have both Budget and Actual data joined in the same query

I think I need to apply a filter to my column grouping but I'm not sure what the expression is.

pseudo:

Something like

for all months <= Month(Date()) then field!actuals else field!budget

Is this the right approach?

SSRS - Parameter Cannot be blank. Please enter value error

$

One of my ssrs report has a parameter Country - drop down list.  This is populated from a cube using mdx.

This column in the original table sometimes has the value as NULL.  In the cube dimension I have set NULLProcessing as 'Automatic' for this column (meaning it will convert to ZeroorBlank based on data type)

In my Visual Studio IDE - Preview , this drop down list is defaulted to this value and it is selected and iam able to preview the report.

However when I deploy the report to the server, it throws an error 'Parameter cannot be NULL.  Please enter a value'.

The server is SQL 2008 R2 (RTM) - 10.50.1600.1

Please let me know if there is any workaround for this.

Thanks

Is there rows limit for the table? Which is the max rows best practice? SSRS 2012

$

Hi people,

While building a table in the SSRS, is there rows limit to be rendered ?

What´s the best practice for it? If we expect 5 Millions of rows for example, could the table render it without to be paged?

Even paged, is it fine to the SSRS render to the end user?

Thanks,

Alex Berenguer

Show drillthrough in "Child" reportviewer (jQuery)

$
0
0

Hi all, I am new here so forgive me if this is an unusual question.

I'd like to give my users the option to show drill through reports in a JQuery dialog window so they could "float" above the parent report in the same browser window. I don't build the reports, so I can't change to "Action" to go to a url, it's set to go to another report (not that that would help as the url would be the same). I just want to hijack the process and pop up a JQuery dialog showing the drillthrough, while the parent stays in the main report.

Maybe in the drillthrough event handler I could "grab" the parameters being sent and pass them programmatically to the other report and then show the jquery dialog and cancel the drillthrough event on the original report?

I'm entirely comfortable with the JQuery aspects of handling the dialog window, it's just the issue of targeting the drillthrough to another reportviewer in the same aspx page that I'd like help with.

Thanks for your thoughts, Bob Graham.


Do you have any experience in integrating reporting services with sap bw 7.3

Hello everyone,

Do you have any experience in integrating reporting services with sap bw 7.3?

According to my knowledge integration between RS and 7.0 is quite easy:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/pl-pl/library/cc974473.aspx

Microsoft .NET Data Provider 1.1 for SAPNetWeaver

The provider has been developed for and tested against SAP BW 3.5 and 7.0 Support Package 20 for SAP BW 3.5 and 7.0

But what about 7.3? The only relevant thread that I have found is:

http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/sqlreportingservices/thread/3f6551a1-fd1c-4522-8b3b-673dfa67f915

Since there is no solution given, I am afraid that is not possible or at least it is difficult. Any experience positive or negative will be appreciated.
