In an existing ssrs 2008, I want to add a parameter that is like userid. This will be a value the user enters as a parameter value. I want this user parameter to be the first parameter listed since I want to modify existing parameters to be cascading. I want the other parameters to limit what is displayed based upon the user value entered.
Due to that fact, can you tell me how I can make this new user parameter as the first parameter hopefully without deleting the existing paramters?
I am getting an error in a calculated field that could potentially divide by zero, even though I'm using an IIF. The column displays in the report as "#Error". My expression looks like this:
"None", Fields!Hours.Value / Fields!Qty.Value)= IIF(Fields!Qty.Value = 0,
I have successfully used this approach with INT fields, but this time the Hours field is a NUMERIC(9,2). My workaround is to do this:
IIF(Fields!Qty.Value = 0, "None", IIF(Fields!Qty.Value = 0, 42, Fields!Hours.Value) / Fields!Qty.Value)
I guess the 42 is cast to an INT inside the second IIF and the calculation works.
What's strange is that the division would even be carried out in the event of Qty = 0 from the first IIF, because the expression should just evaluate to "None" and that would be that.
Has anybody run into this problem? Is my workaround the recommended approach?

For an existing ssrs 2008 report that is running on a ssrs 2012 report server, I believe the call from the .net application that will call the report server will look something like the following:
https://test.sch.org/AL/att/letter.aspx?schoolyear=2017&schoolnum=341&term=9&milestonecode=005&startdate=12/8/2016%2010:03:06%20AM&enddate=12/9/2016%2012:00:00%20AM&language=ALL&studentlink=ALL&UniqueID=999999
Since this is my first time obtaining parameter values from a call from an application, I have the following questions:
1. Does the name of the parameter need to be exactly like what is passed in the url. For example listed above, there 'schoolyear=2017'. Does the SSRS report name need to be exactly 'schoolnum' or can the name be something else?
2. How does the ssrs report know what parameter field applies to the values listed above? For example, how does the ssrs report know where 'schoolnum=341' should be applied in the report? Does having the parameter marked as hidden make a difference? Does
the order of parameters listed make a difference?
3. There are the first two parameters called admin and userid that are not listed in the url? These 2 parameters have default values. Do I need to pass those 2 parameters in the url? Can you tell me why or why I would not need to pass those parameter values
in the url (link)?
Hi to everyone,
I create a stacked column chart. On the values window a have a float field "amount" and on the category fields a have a group called "Type" with values A,B,C. On the Preview I get three columns one for each category value.
however, I want to add a fourth column with the cumulative values for all category values.
I tried through the Variables property option of the category field but I did not manage to overcome the proble.
Does anyone know how to figure out this issue.
Thank you in advance
I have a Boolean parameter in a report and 'Allow null value' disabled for it.
If I view the report via the Report Viewer 130.1700.305 control (sourced from NuGet) it mistakenly displays a NULL checkbox alongside that parameter.
Note that it doesn't do this/displays correctly via the SSRS web portal.
I am trying to get the user who executes (views) a report in SSRS 2008, IP and Workstation Name. I followed the example at this post but receive the following security error...
Value expression for the textrun ‘Textbox18.Paragraphs[0].TextRuns[0]’ contains an error: Request for the permission of type 'System.Net.DnsPermission, System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed
I researched this everywhere, adding Code Group permissions, Permission Sets, etc.
At minimum, does nayone know how to get just the user's IP in SSRS 2008?
All help is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance :)

Hello,
When I deploy a SSRS data source to a development SSRS server and test the Data source the following message is thrown
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
This is limited to 2 SQL Servers endpoints. When I use different SQL Servers I get connected.
When I try to connect to problem SQL Servers
This is a weird one.
Thanks for any assistance - Covi

Hi,
My report runs fine when I view in VS, data shows fine when I run the query in the data window, but when I publish it to the server, I get the above error. I am running SQL server 2005 RTM and I have re-deployed the entire solution.
Any ideas?
Good day,
I have a chart on my report which displays for the current month. I wish to add 2 other charts (copies) for the previous 2 months.
So, in example above, if I pull report for October, I want to see same chart for previous 2 months; i.e. September and August.
How can I achieve this?
Please assist

I’m trying to create a Chart in my Report, and cannot fathom how to do it.
I think I’ve tried every combination, but cannot get the required result.
I also tried it in Excel, but still had no joy.
Given the following sample data set:
Less Than 6 Months | CANADA | ClassicMvp | 5 |
Less Than 6 Months | UNITED KINGDOM | ClassicMvp | 1 |
Less Than 6 Months | UNITED STATES | ClassicMvp | 20 |
Less Than 6 Months | CANADA | ClassicStandard | 8 |
Less Than 6 Months | UNITED KINGDOM | ClassicStandard | 3 |
Less Than 6 Months | UNITED STATES | ClassicStandard | 34 |
Less Than 9 Months | CANADA | ClassicMvp | 2 |
Less Than 9 Months | UNITED KINGDOM | ClassicMvp | 15 |
Less Than 9 Months | UNITED STATES | ClassicMvp | 23 |
Less Than 9 Months | CANADA | ClassicStandard | 10 |
Less Than 9 Months | UNITED KINGDOM | ClassicStandard | 4 |
Less Than 9 Months | UNITED STATES | ClassicStandard | 41 |
Less Than 12 Months | CANADA | ClassicMvp | 1 |
Less Than 12 Months | UNITED KINGDOM | ClassicMvp | 3 |
Less Than 12 Months | UNITED STATES | ClassicMvp | 17 |
Less Than 12 Months | CANADA | ClassicStandard | 4 |
Less Than 12 Months | UNITED KINGDOM | ClassicStandard | 1 |
Less Than 12 Months | UNITED STATES | ClassicStandard | 39 |
I wish to create a Chart which looks like this simulation [with inaccurate heights],
with the columns grouped by Period, stacked by Country and Product,
with the height of each section representative of the Count :
Thanks, Dave
Hi,
Does anyone have any further information regarding the use of custom auth in SSRS 2016.
The official documentation for SQL 2016 custom auth has references to the depreciated report manager. It seems the documentation has been copied from SSRS 2012 with no update. See here; https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc281383.aspx
Also no responses from MS on https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/2664276
SQL 2016 RTM documentation states custom auth is supported?
Any help or guidance is appreciated.
Regards

I'm having a scenario in SSRS2016 where I'd like to use a custom map shape and link corresponding sales. The MapKey is in the format "0180" (Swedish municipality code) and I have my data as "Sales By Municipality Code" but as soon as I import the data into the Mobile Report Publisher the municipality code column gets auto-detected as a double - which then prevents me from linking the sales to the map/shape.
I've tried both a shared dataset and an Excel file as a data source with the same result. I've tried different methods to cast/define the column in Excel, no luck. I've even tried to mix in some strings into the otherwise numeric municipality code (e.g."AAAA"), it now gets detected as a string but the leading zeros still get stripped.
Any ways around this issue (apart from modifying the shape file)? Thanks in advance!
Hi,
This will be my first report to be created with 'DECLARE' in the SQL query.
How do I use or convert this in SSRS? Should I convert this to Stored Procedure? If so, do I need to create SP in SSRS or SSMS?
If anyone can provide a sample of the converted SP from below query and show how to use that in SSRS, would be of great help.
Here is the SQL Query -
Declare @Current_College_year Varchar(20) ,@Prior_College_year Varchar(20) Set @Current_College_year = '2015-16' set @Prior_College_year = '2014-15' select CYR.College_YEAR ,CYR.SPE_ALT as CYR_EStatus ,CYR.College_DIS_CODE ,DIST.DIS_NAME ,PYR.College_YEAR ,PYR.SPE_ALT as PYR_EStatus ,PYR.College_DIS_CODE ,ISNULL(CYR_COUNT,0) as CYR_COUNT ,ISNULL(PYR_COUNT,0) as PYR_COUNT ,(ISNULL(CYR_COUNT,0)-ISNULL(PYR_COUNT,0)) as Count_Diff ,case when ISNULL(PYR_COUNT,0) = 0 then 0 else cast((CYR_COUNT-PYR_COUNT)/cast(PYR_COUNT as numeric(8,2)) as numeric(8,2)) end *100 AS Percent_Diff from (select ml.SPE_ALT,ml.SPE_SORT ,College_DIS_CODE ,College_YEAR ,count(distinct s_key) AS CYR_COUNT from TELECOLL_R.ML_ATTEND as ml WITH (NOLOCK) where College_year = @Current_College_year and enrolled_fs_id = 'Yes' group by ml.SPE_ALT,ml.SPE_SORT,College_DIS_CODE,College_YEAR )CYR left join ( select ml.SPE_ALT,ml.SPE_SORT ,College_DIS_CODE ,College_YEAR ,count(distinct s_key) AS PYR_COUNT from TELECOLL_R.ML_ATTEND as ml WITH (NOLOCK) where 1=1 and College_year = @Prior_College_year and enrolled_fs_id = 'Yes' group by ml.SPE_ALT,ml.SPE_SORT,College_DIS_CODE,College_YEAR )PYR on CYR.College_DIS_CODE = PYR.College_DIS_CODE and CYR.SPE_ALT = PYR.SPE_ALT left join [TELECOLL_USRDATA].[XL_DIS] as DIS WITH (NOLOCK) on CYR.College_DIS_CODE = dist.DIS_ID order by Percent_DiffThank You.
Is a way to avoid the snapshots being overridden?
Or this is a limitation of SSRS?
