SQL Mobile Report Publisher Dataset Won't Add

$
0
0

Has anyone had any issues with trying to add a dataset to Mobile Report Publisher ?

I hit "add data", navigate to the data set on my report server, click on it, it spins, and nothing happens. It doesn't give any information about what the problem is, no actual error pops up. 

I can add a similar dataset, that just has about 5 columns, the one i'm having problems with has about 15 columns. Is there a limit to the number of columns a dataset can have ?

I can preview the dataset data on the report server with no problem. 

I've tried re-building a fresh dashboard. I also re-built the dataset in visual studio and re-deployed but still having the same problem. 

I have the latest version of MRP. 

Any ideas ?


SSRS vs. Crystal

$

Does anyone have a -recent- comparison of SSRS vs. Crystal Reporting?

The sense I'm getting from all over the web is that SSRS is preferred, but I need an objective and concrete trade-off analysis between the two.  Also, most of the stuff I'm seeing is old (from earlier versions of both software applications).  Crystal was reccently completely rewritten and SSRS had a number of significant improvements before SQL Server 2008 (not R2) - the version of SQL we'll be running.

I realize asking that question here is a bit like a Muslim popping into the Vatican and asking "how fast could Allah kick Christ's butt?", but I'm far from sold on Crystal.  I'm primarily interested in reducing the different software I'll need to support.  My boss is interested in a convincing argument to use one of these two applications instead of both.

Querying Excel file in Report Builder 3.0

I set up an ODBC connection in Report Builder 3.0, connected to my Excel sheet as my data source, and I can set up a data set that queries one sheet at a time fine. But can I join two sheets in a data set query? I always get "Syntax error in FROM clause." I thought I could use basic SQL syntax in the query and it would be fine. Is there a certain syntax or trick, or can this just not be done?

Pass Field values to multi-value parameter in another report

$

I have row and column groups that aggregate counts for a high level report.  I want to have another report that accepts a list of IDs from the high level report and displays information for those IDs.

Example:

I have 12 people that finished project A in January and a different 9 people that finished project B in February.  The counts display correctly in the main report but when I click on one of the numbers it should go to a details report.  This details report will always display the same information for a given ID but the IDs might change.  I am trying to pass the Fields!ID.value to a mult-value parameter in the details report but the best I have achieved is getting the first ID to be sent.  Is there any way to do this?

SSRS standards?

$
0
0

Hi experts,

I have a few questions regarding SSRS, I have 2 servers to support, after years of anarchy, and I need to put everything in place…

Questions:

-         Which is the URL that I should be providing... Sometimes with either of the below, people seems not to have access; and gets fixed by using the other URL.

ServerSSRS/Reports/Pages

or

ServerSSRS/ReportServer/Pages

 

Which one is the correct one? What’s the difference?

 

-Access is my first concern… how can I see a list of each report and see who has access? (I know I can do it by clicking each report, but I would like to have a list retrieved).

-DataSources… What is the best practice? Should all of them be embedded in each report? Should I create a folder and create them there? Should it be created in the same folder as the report? Should I have one per instance and connect to master, and have the code of the report have DB.schema.Table , so I don’t need to have 2 datasrouce hitting the same instance?

-How to prevent people from creating reports in the root folder

-I always use Report Builder? is it alright? or I should go to SSDT?

-Which browser/version should the users use?

Thanks in advance… Basically I am trying to come up with some standards and try to make people respect them. I am the only admin, but there is many people (do not know how many), that have access to create reports and modify them…

 

Below the 2 servers…

Is it possible to change the page numbers as is entered by the users?

$
0
0

I have number of directory based reports created and are currently being used. All the reports Page number starts with Page 1.

I have a text book or directory type page numbers in all the reports. I have assigned two text boxes in a Footer which has "=Globals!PageNumber". 

Right Textbox visibility expression has "=IIF(Globals!PageNumber Mod 2=0,True,False)"

Left Textbox visibility expression has "=IIF(Globals!PageNumber Mod 2=0,False,True)"

 

One of the additional feature I want to add to all these reports is - when a user opens a report,a pop up or filter or parameter option should be displayed to enter the page number manually. When the user enters the page number in the filter, the reports page number should change accordingly.

Here is a sample screenshot of the expected parameter or filter or argument which was taken from another reporting tool.

Example: Say, the Page number is 1. If the user enters the parameter or filter value of the page number to '15', the report page number should show 15 instead of 1 and continue from 15, 16, 17, 18, and so on.

Is it possible to achieve this with SSRS? Has anyone created something like this in SSRS? Any solution?

Please let me know if I need to explain more on this requirement.

Regards!

ReportViewer datepicker returns incorrect date.

$

Hi All;

SSRS / Sql Server 2012

I am having issues with the ReportViewer and the datePicker control.  On certain machines, when you select a date with the calendar control, the date entered in the textbox will have the month and day reversed.  The report will then try to run with incorrect parameters.  If the date is a valid date (though not the one selected) you can try to enter the date again, and the report will then run with the correct parameters.

I have googled the issue and all results returned have to do with version 2005 / 2008.  Nothing newer, yet this is happening on SSRS, Sql Server 2012 Sp 3.

Any thoughts, ideas or hints would be appreciated...

Thanks,
Rob.

Hi all,

I've produced a report containing the names of employee's and their respective IP address,  the report works fine, but its currently only used as reference material, users look up the ip address and copy and paste the address into a desktop control application.

I'd like to be able to cut out the manual copy and paste process and by using links within the SSRS report to launch the application and pass the value of the IP address to it.

I've already established the command required to launch the application, I now just need to find a way to use it in my report.

Here is the command for the application:   H:\DameWare\DWRCC.exe -c: -m:82.100.239.1

Can anyone help?

Dan

Can you use a hierarchy as a parameter in SSRS?

$

All,
 
I was attempting to create a SSRS report and then will take that report and add it into performance point.  In PerformancePoint, I am able to have one dropdown parameter list with a tree like hierarchy coming from a SSAS cube.  For instance, my geography parameter in PerformancePoint is one drop down that goes from Region > Area > Country in a tree form.

In SSRS I don't see any way at all to create ONE parameter that has a dropdown in this form.  It seems like I have to bring in each component separately.  So I would have one Region drop down, One Area dropdown and one Country drop down.  Yes I can make them cascading.  But is there

1) ANY way at all to create one parameter from a SSAS hierarchy and if NOT then

2) How can I link the SSRS report into my dashboard filter that is one drop down?  I do NOT want the users to have to select from region, then from area then from country.

Thanks,
Mindy

Parameter change does not refresh default values of dependent parameters

$
0
0
Hi,

I have a problem with my dependent multi-value parameters in my SSRS 2008 SP1 reports. The default values for the parameters are correctly loaded when the report is opened, but when a primary parameter value is changed the default values for the dependent parameters are not set. Let me describe this problem further more with an example:

Parameter 1: Region
Parameter 2: Property

Both parameters are filled each by a query to the database where the query for Property has the selected values of Region in its where clause.

Region: select Region_ID, Region_Key from Region order by SortOrder
Property: select Property_ID, Property_Key from Property where Region_ID in (@Region) order by Property_Key

For both parameters I have set the Default Values to the same dataset as selected for Available Values.

1. Now, when the report is opened, all parameters are filled with the correct values and set to the correct default values (all selected).
2. When I change the Region parameter to only one of the 4 available values the Property parameter is refreshed and filled with the correct values (for that one region) and set to the correct default values (all selected).
3. The problem occurs when I change the Region Parameter back to "(Select All)". The multi-value parameter drop-down-list Property is filled with the correct values for all 4 regions but the default values are not selected. Only those properties are (or better: remain) selected, which were selected before when only one region was selected.

Can you please help me with this problem? Setting the Property parameter to "Always refresh" under the "Advanced" properties does not solve the problem. It occurs both in the Business Intelligence Studio and then browsing the report through the web published on SSRS.

Alex

SQL 2016 Designer breaks previously working reports - One or more parameters were not specified for the subreport

$
0
0

Edit:  See the resolution - it wasn't the report designer that was the culprit afterall.

I've got a project with over 100 reports in it.  Some of these reports date clear back to SQL 2005 while others are as new as last month.

Within this project, I've got one report which has 8 sub-reports (the sub-reports make up substantially all of the content, other than page header/footer).

Simply opening the report with the SQL 2016 report designer in VS 2015 and then deploying it to SSRS results in a report where 3 of the 8 sub-reports no longer function, each providing the very useful message:

One or more parameters were not specified for the subreport, 'subreportName', located at: /Path

Of course, nowhere in that message does it say which parameters, nor is anything recorded on the server identifying the parameters, nor are there in fact any parameters that are missing or invalid.

I've tried innumerable combinations ranging from deleting the subreport entirely and re-creating it, supplying only the parameters that don't have defaults on one extreme, to passing values to all 15 report parameters, including hidden ones, including parameters that have defaults.  All of the values being passed are valid (far as I can tell) and yet this error insists on appearing.

Again, these reports worked before the SQL 2016 designer touched them.

Any ideas?  I've already wasted days trying to make this latest version of the report designer behave.

SSRS "DateAdd" for dataset date

$
0
0

Hey Guys,

I have the following expression in my textbox:

=DateAdd(DateInterval.Hour,2,Fields!Date_Created.Value, "Pacific")

All this is supposed to do is just add 2 hours to the returned dataset scope called "Date_Created". When I try and save this I get the following error:

"The Value expression for the text box ‘Textbox31’ refers directly to the field ‘Date_Created’ without specifying a dataset aggregate.  When the report contains multiple datasets, field references outside of a data region must be contained within aggregate functions which specify a dataset scope."

I do add the aggregate towards the "pacific" database so not sure why it's failing. Any advice or alternative way I can get this to work?

--Regards--
