How to setup SSRS Authentication against external server?

$
0
0
 

Our Web application started using external authentication mechanism called CAS. Now we need to Configure SSRS to authenticate against CAS whenever the user accesses a SSRS URL on web page.

If user authenticated against CAS already, report should be opened seamlessly. 

Please let me know how to configure / design SSRS reports in this case?

Thanks in advance


SSRS 2012 Email configuration

I am trying to configure SSRS to authenticate to SMTP. I've tried editing the rsreportserver.config file but can't get it to work. Can someone tell me how to get SMTP authentication working in SSRS 2012?

ssrs 2008 iif expression

$
0
0

In an ssrs 2008 report, there is the following IIF expression on the visibility property of a tablix:

=iif((CountRows("SrvyRespondents") < 1 ), True, False).

The "SrvyRespondents" is the name of the dataset that is accessed by the tablix.

Somehow the true and false portions determine if the tablix will display or not.

Thus would you tell me what the iif statement means? Would you tell me what each part means so that I know what the expression means in the future?

Can't keep column headers visible in IE browser

$
0

Hi,

I've been researching this for days and have tried many things to get my tablix column headers to freeze at top of screen when I'm scrolling down in a report IN THE BROWSER.  I am using Report Builder 3.0 on MS Sql Server 2012 to create the report and Internet Explorer 11 on Windows 8 to view the reports.  The things I have tried are both in table and matrix, with a row group and without, with a column group and without, using the tablix property setting to 'keep header visible while scrolling' and also using the method of setting the tablix member properties for the static rows using tablix properties 'advance mode', clicking on static member and setting FixedDate = True, KeepWithGroup = After and RepeatOnNewPage = True and then also setting the background color of row to White. 

In these tries I can always get what I need to work and show up in the Report Builder 'Preview' mode, but it never works in the browser when just running the report directly.  I have tried everything I can find in the forums but still the only thing that ever happens in the browser is that the whole page just scrolls down and nothing stays frozen on top of screen (not even the report header stays let alone my matrix column headers).  I can't find anything that addresses when it works in Preview mode but doesn't work in Internet Explorer.  Is there a setting somewhere in the setup of reporting services that I'm missing maybe?  Or something specific to the browser that I need to do? 

Any help at all would be appreciated.  I'm desperate.  If I can't get this to work for all our reports, the users aren't going to stick with these.

SSRS 2012 Report Manager won't display from another subnet

in SSRS 2012 the report manager works fine for workstations in the same subnet as the SSRS server.  Using the same account and try from a workstation on another subnet, it never seems to even get to the server.  It just has a spinning ring waiting for the site.  No error no nothing.  In Firefox it repeatedly prompts for credentials.

Sever IP 10.8.6.158

workstations that work  10.8.6.255, 10,8,20.62

workstation that doesn't work. 10.1.2.142

any suggestions?

SSRS + get current logged in user to be used as parameter

$

Hi,

We are using SSRS 2005 + sql server 2005. We deploy our reports to report server and use report manager (servername/Reports) to launch SSRS reports. Our users use this link to go to the reports and navigate from there to particular reports.

Right now we are restricting users based on their roles from accessing reports. We got new requirement where we need to know the current logged in username. We have couple of dropdowns, say account, date dropdown. we need to filter account dropdown based on current user logged in. All users won't have access to all the accounts. Based on user name, we need to filter account dropdown and then give user with list of accounts which he choses to view the reports.

Is it possible to do this. we are not using report viewer or sharepoint. I appreciate your response.

Thanks,

Spunny

I must be missing something, it seems like a basic concept to be able layer/overlay annual aggregated numbers in a multiple line graphs.  In other words if I have a table with daily attendance figures over multiple years I would like to display the weekly totals for last 3 years, as 3 line graphs for a 12 month period.  Any advice/direction greatly appreciated.

Round function not showing trailing zeros

Hi All,     

         Please check the following expression.

         =Math.Round(Fields!Amount.Value, CINT(Parameters!CDP.Value) )

        Here CDP is the parameter. It specifies the number of decimal  places to show.

       I have passed the parameter value as 3. But it is showing the Amount value as '17.6' not '17.600'. Trailing zeros are missing.

       Please help me to fix this issue.

Thanks,

Dhanisha

  

SSRS Dataset preview fails with spatial data

Hi, I'm experimenting with Spatial data and have a dataset with a SQL statement with

geography::STGeomFromText(columnWithPositionData, 4326)

When I upload it so SSRS, it breaks the preview. I have taken out that column and the rest works.

Can anyone confirm this? Is this a bug or a feature? ;-)

Target MS SQL Server and Oracle

Hi, are there any ideas how I can have my reports and dataset target MS SQL Server and Oracle at the same time? The main (and maybe only) problem is the parameter. MS expects "@" and Oracle needs ":" in front of the parameter name. Are there any workarounds, ideas or tips?

Thanks!

Report Builder - Indicator Assistance needed Please

I want to have an overall report like this:

Team  Status

 ABC      (green arrow because all issues are complete)

 DEF      (yellow arrow because there are some items in progress)

 GHI      (Red arrow nothing has been started)


and the SharePoint list with the data I have to work with looks like this

 TEAM ITEM  ISSUE A   ISSUE B        ISSUE C      

   ABC     1      Complete      Complete       Complete        

   ABC     2      Complete      Complete       Complete         

   ABC     3      Complete      Complete       Complete         

   DEF     4      Open             Complete        Open             

   DEF     5      InProgress     Open            InProgress        

   GHI     6      Open            Open             Open               

So it seems I need to find a way to group the team line items. Then look at the Issue A, B and C columns.

  • If any one of them has the value "inprogress", then that overall team indicator would be yellow,
  • if all complete then green, and
  • if all open, then red.   


[SSRS 2016] What is in store for the .net "Local Mode"

I have a lot of projects that use the rdlc type of reports to be rendered in local mode. I've installed the new Data Tools for Visual Studio 2015 Preview but I can't get ReportViewer new version or a new rdlc template for 2016 version.

Does the 2016 version still support the local mode reports with the new layout and features ??


Thanks

Hi. We run 2012 enterprise. I'm looking into a couple of alternatives for scanning our source control in situations where a proc is changing and we want to make sure we are only affecting the reports we think we are.

 One thing I though of is to run a select on the ssrs catalog using t-sql to do the same thing.  Is this viable?

Map Viewport Zoom Settings not working for Planar system 2008 R2

$

I am running SQL Server 2008 R2 and Visual Studio 2008. I am having some issues trying to set a dynamic zoom level for a basic map. I have one parameter for this report: Fire Station. What I want the map to do is zoom into the map where the selected fire station is located. Our servers use the Planar system for their coordinate system. I have tried EVERY zoom option and the only one that works is the "Set a view center and zoom level". All other options result in a blank map with no scale bar, legend, or anything. No warning or error messages result from this. It's as if the map is not receiving any data, although the tablix above returns data based on the same dataset.

Any help is much appreciated!
