Accessing Report Through URL Not Getting Prompted For Parameters
Feb 8, 2007
I'm accessing my report through a URL:
http://reportserver/ReportServer?/Folder/ReportName&rs:Command=Render&rs:Format=CSV&rc:Parameters=true
I am getting an error: This report requires a default or user-defined
value for the report parameter 'beg_dt'. To run or subscribe to this
report, you must provide a parameter value.
(rsReportParameterValueNotSet) Get Online Help
I do not want to pass the report parameters (to and from dates) through
the URL. I want the dates to be entered by the user running the
report. If I enter default parameters in Report Manager I am not prompted
for the dates.
Hi All, I have created a stored procedure (in SQL Server 2005 - Developer) with input and output parameters. Please somebody let me know how I can call this store procedure from code behind using TableAdapter i.e. through XSD. Thanks,
I am trying to retrieve and manipulate the value of the stored procedure parameters in the following custom code:
Code Snippet Public Function ShowLoading(ByVal intOption as integer, byVal BasicLoading as string, byVal BasicHealthExtra as string, byVal RiderLoading as string, byVal RiderHealthExtra as string, byVal TotalAmount as string) As string
dim strRider as String dim strCompanyName as string strCompanyName = Fields!CompanyName.Value
select case strCompanyName case "and Plus Rider ": strRider = "Plus Rider" case "and Assist Rider ": strRider = "Assist Rider" end select return strRider
End Function
However, i got this error when I try to preview the report: An error occurred during local report processing, The definition of the report :
'/reportC' is invalid. There is an error on line 5 of custom code: [BC30469] Reference to a non-shared member requires an object reference.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I am working on reports in SSRS 2008 (not R2)... There are some reports with parameters that are hidden when the report is accessed through normal URL using ReportViewer.asx..The thing is that these hidden parameters need to be visible when the report is accessed using SSRS Report Manager.
I created a stored procedure (see snippet below) and the owner is "dbo". I created a data connection (slcbathena.SLCPrint.AdamsK) using Windows authentication. I added a new datasource to my application in VS 2005 which created a dataset (slcprintDataSet.xsd). I opened up the dataset in Designer so I could get to the table adapter. I selected the table adapter and went to the properties panel. I changed the DeleteCommand as follows: CommandType = StoredProcedure; CommandText = usp_OpConDeleteDirectory. When I clicked on the Parameters Collection to pull up the Parameters Collection Editor, there was no parameters listed to edit even though there is one defined in the stored procedure. Why?
If I create the stored procedure as "AdamsK.usp_OpConDeleteDirectory", the parameters show up correctly in the Parameters Collection Editor. Is there a relationship between the owner name of the stored procedure and the data connection name? If so, how can I create a data connection that uses "dbo" instead of "AdamsK" so I can use the stored procedure under owner "dbo"?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Code SnippetCREATE PROCEDURE dbo.usp_OpConDeleteDirectory ( @DirectoryID int ) AS SET NOCOUNT ON DELETE FROM OpConDirectories WHERE (DirectoryID = @DirectoryID)
I have a SSRS report with four parameters,and I want to be able to enter information for two of the parameters and run the report opposed to all four of them. However, when I select allow blanks and only select the parameters that I want to run the report by, the report come back blank..Essentially, I want to be able to the run report by different parameters without having to enter information for all parameters at the same time.
We have a database residing on a SQL Server 2012 Express system running under Windows Server 2012. I have installed the SQL 2012 Native Client on the user's workstation. I created the System DSN with the required settings and when I test the connection all tests pass. I am able to ping the server as well as connect to it via SQL Server Management Studio.
Now when the user launches the application he is presented with the dialog window as in Screenshot1 (see attached). After clicking on Ok he is next presented with the dialog window where he has to select the SQL server. See attached Screenshot2. The user selects the SQL server from the drop down list and he is then able to access the application and work normally. I cannot understand why this is happening because I have included the correct server instance in the DSN settings i.e. sqlserversqlexpress
Telling the user to select the server himself is not an option for us.
I have checked the settings on the SQL Server. TCP/IP is enabled, remote connections are allowed and there is no firewall blocking. Port 1433 has been set as the default port to use.
In a Database "AP" of my SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE), I have a stored procedure "spInvTotal3":
CREATE PROC [dbo].[spInvTotal3]
@InvTotal money OUTPUT,
@DateVar smalldatetime = NULL,
@VendorVar varchar(40) = '%'
This stored procedure "spInvTotal3" worked nicely and I got the Results: My Invoice Total = $2,211.01 in my SSMSE by using either of 2 sets of the following EXEC code: (1) USE AP GO --Code that passes the parameters by position DECLARE @MyInvTotal money EXEC spInvTotal3 @MyInvTotal OUTPUT, '2006-06-01', 'P%' PRINT 'My Invoice Total = $' + CONVERT(varchar,@MyInvTotal,1) GO (2) USE AP GO DECLARE @InvTotal as money EXEC spInvTotal3 @InvTotal = @InvTotal OUTPUT, @DateVar = '2006-06-01', @VendorVar = '%' SELECT @InvTotal GO //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Now, I want to print out the result of @InvTotal OUTPUT in the Windows Application of my ADO.NET 2.0-VB 2005 Express programming. I have created a project "spInvTotal.vb" in my VB 2005 Express with the following code:
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Imports System.Data.SqlTypes
Public Class Form1
Public Sub printMyInvTotal()
Dim connectionString As String = "Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS; Initial Catalog=AP; Integrated Security=SSPI;"
Dim conn As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(connectionString)
Try
conn.Open()
Dim cmd As New SqlCommand
cmd.Connection = conn
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
cmd.CommandText = "[dbo].[spInvTotal3]"
Dim param As New SqlParameter("@InvTotal", SqlDbType.Money)
param.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output
cmd.Parameters.Add(param)
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
'Print out the InvTotal in TextBox1
TextBox1.Text = param.Value
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
Throw
Finally
conn.Close()
End Try
End Sub
End Class ///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// I executed the above code and I got no errors, no warnings and no output in the TextBox1 for the result of "InvTotal"!!?? I have 4 questions to ask for solving the problems in this project: #1 Question: I do not know how to do the "DataBinding" for "Name" in the "Text.Box1". How can I do it? #2 Question: Did I set the CommandType property of the command object to CommandType.StoredProcedure correctly? #3 Question: How can I define the 1 output parameter (@InvTotal) and 2 input parameters (@DateVar and @VendorVar), add them to the Parameters Collection of the command object, and set their values before I execute the command? #4 Question: If I miss anything in print out the result for this project, what do I miss?
I need some assistance with Microsoft SQL Reporting Services. My problem is quite straight forward. I am using a ASP.NET 2.0 ReportControl locally on my machine and I would like to access a report which is hosted on another server within the network. How could I access this report. I am getting the following error:
The attempt to connect to the report server failed. Check your connection information and that the report server is a compatible version.
The request failed with HTTP status 404: Not Found.
I have created a report with the report server project template.
the report is created from stoked procedure having defaut input parameters.
With visual studio, i publish my report on reportserver. whenever i access to my report on this url :
http://localhost/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2fReport+Project4%2fReport4&rs:Command=Render. the created report is with the default parameters.
I would like to know if i can transmet parameters for the stocked procedure to build the report with the request i want.
I tried to put parameter directly in the url in this way
We have an Office SharePoint 2007 site, we developed a couple of web parts and added them to our site. We used SQL Server Reporting services 2005 as our reporting solution. The reports are hosted on the report center and when we need a report, we open it by sending a URL requesting the report, passing the report parameters in the URL query string. So the report is filtered based on the parameters passed from the web parts.
But since best practices say that you should host reports directly under SharePoint, by configuring the reporting services to run in the SharePoint integrated mode. We followed the steps and installed SharePointRS and we finally succeeded to publish the reports to a SharePoint folder, but we had a limitation: we are unable to pass the report parameters internally to the report hosted in SharePoint. If we passed them in the query string as the report center case, SharePoint neglects them totally. So the question is: how can I pass parameters internally between a SharePoint web part and a SQL server 2005 reporting services report hosted in SharePoint?

Is there a way to subscribe SSRS report using dynamic parameters for email and trigger the report from autosys job so that report should generate the exact time the job is triggered.Let me describe, my SSRS report should be triggered on success of one autosys job. i need to send email parameter and time of report schedule from this autosys job.
Hi, I have created a sample report called Report1 in SSRS 2005. This currently is running locally on my workstation. I can even browse to it using the http address i.e. http://localhost/Reports The question is: How can someone else access this report on my machine. They can not browse to my machine by typing http://12.32.2.344/Reports
Do I need to do any configuration in my local IIS? Thanks
Hello. I made a reports in my local machine. How can other users in other machine view the reports? Do I need to install SP2? Any guidance please. Thanks. -Ron-

I need a way to automatically generate a daily report of user names, time of access, and type of access (login, select, insert, update, delete, etc.) to a database.
We need to audit all accesses from all accounts to find out who is accessing the payroll system. We have already defined the security to be as tight as possible - however we need to monitor all Administrator accounts to ensure they are not being used to obtain sensitive information.
I have looked for some software to read the live SQL Transaction Logs, but none of the tools I have seen can do exactly what we require. For example, I've tried Lumigent Log Explorer (http://www.lumigent.com/products/le_sql.html), but it's not automated and the report output is just garble to our payroll staff.
I have looked up all Microsoft SQL Server partners but their software is all about data recovery and data reporting. We need Security Reporting.
I have created a general SQL Profiler trace that may suffice if everything else fails, but I still have no way of automating it - it relies on Real-Time monitoring which I can't trust (admin can turn this off, do their stuff, turn it back on). Also this is dependant on someone turning it off, save the log, turn it back on, every day - this person would be the Administrator - what admin would monitor themselves?
- SQL Trace seems like a good idea, how do I read the trace log file? How do I automate a trace?
- Can we automate the SQL Profiler to read the transaction log to find all accesses to a database?
- Does anyone know what we can do to automatically audit accesses to a database? What format can the report come in (pdf, xls, dbf, html etc.)
- Recommended software to try?
- Ideas for alternatives to try?
- Any companies/developers out there who know of a tool or are developing a tool to provide this sort of report?
- Is there a spec somewhere to let us write our own software to query the live transaction log?
Thanks, I appreciate any help. Kind Regards James Payne
I would like a report to display the number of users and the reports accessed for a certain duration of time[being able to go back and check for previous years as well].
I read on the msdn that 60 days worth of report log is kept,and the rest gets wipped off.Any suggestions on how I would be able to get user access list for the past year as well.
I have a report with 2 tables (table1 and table2) in the report body. I have txtempname kept in table 1. I access the textbox value in the header using the following expression
=(report!txtempname.value)
This works fine. However when table2 gets populated on of the subsequent pages, the value in the header disappears. It is visible only for the 1st 10 pages where the table 1 data is there.
How to make sure that the value of the header displays for all the pages
I have created a report using Visual Studio that brings back the expected information from the database when either run from within VS or is deployed to the server and run through Internet Explorer. The problem that I have is that records on the database each has a field that contains the location of a photograph file which is located on a different server. When I run the report from within VS on my PC it correctly includes the photo but when I run it from the server the picture just shows the icon denoting a broken link - although all of the database information is correctly displayed.
I think this may be a security problem as my workstation user has Domain Administrator capabilities but I am not sure which user is being used by Reporting Services when it tries to access the photo files from the other server. I have made sure that the user configured in Windows Service Identity also temprarily has Domain Admin rights but this has not made any difference.
Can anyone shed any light on which user the server uses when it runs on the server and tries to access network based information.
I have a need to refresh a report after applying a filter on the data that is displayed, without accessing the database.
The following example is a simplified version of the functionality I'm trying to accomplish. The first report displays Sales & Projection data for all products. On clicking a particular product in the header, the second report displays just that product and the total metrics. I have created an rdl file for both the reports and based on the parameters passed, it displays one or several products. My concern is that the report is having to access the AS cube every time a product is clicked. In the real report, it's taking minutes to get the data. Is there way I can get the report to refresh to apply the filter without accessing the database again? Thanks in advance...
I am having hard time in sending parameters to the report server through reportviewer control from my application. Could anybody help me on this issue?. Is there any way to send the parameters and also what kind of configuration do i need on my report project so that it can accept parameters from my application.
I have a really cool Budget report which has two matrices on it. One is used/visible if the user selects four levels of grouping, and one is used if the user selects only three levels of grouping. The four choices for grouping are four fields, Par, FERC, Point, and Resource.
Since grouping is optional, I need a way to pass the parameter for a field that is not grouped on from the main report to the drillthrough report. For example if the user chooses to group on all fields but Point, I need to pass the report parameter that was used by the main report for Point to the drillthrough report as a report parameter.
So, I tried testing the three grouping levels values and if none were equal to "Point" then pass in the parameter by putting the following expression in the Parameter Value box for the Point parameter on the Navigation tab of the datacell of the main report that is the drillthrough link:
=iif( Parameters!GroupLevel1.Value <> "Point" and Parameters!GroupLevel2.Value<>"Point" and Parameters!GroupLevel3.Value<>"Point" , Join(Parameters!PNTPoint.Value,",") , Fields!Point.UniqueName )
But this is not working; the drillthrough report shows a blank dropdown for the Point parameter and I have to manually set it. Does anyone see an error in the syntax of the iif statement?
Any references, links, resources or good clean jokes would be greatly appreciated.
Is it possible to poplulate some control like Dropdownlist (for example, with Product names Or Product Ids) from database table in SSRS project type and then filter report by choosing various choice pre-populated in dropdownlist control.
Project Type is : SQL Server Reportings 2005.
Desired Action: Report will run in browser, User will choose specific product and Run the report(filter) to show that product relate results.
I am facing an error while displaying a sql reporting service report on my asp.net page. The report it self is build using Report server project. It consists of a Main report which contains a bar graph. Upon clicking on the bar graph, it takes you to another report (i have given in the jump to report section), call it Report 2. Upon clicking on Report 2 it shows another report say Report 3. It is displayed properly as long as i run the preview of the report in my report project. When i deploy this report on the report server and trying it to access using my asp.net code behind. The main reports runs very fine. Upon clicking, it does not do anything and when i click again it display error, the report does not contain any thing. Sometime it does not show even the error. But just could not drill me in.
I presume on the click event of the report which is a char item, it calls the page load event, and it loses it parent report information or something like that. Please can any body guide me how to do this.
The following functionality i need to achieve with my web page.
My main report : Main report :upon click on any char item, it should take you to the second report. My second report : and on clicking on charitem on the the second report, it should take me to the third report.

Is it possible to add custom controls in for parameters in report manager??
I have a parameter that requires the user to click a button and select a bunch of things in another form. How can i do this in reporting services??
I also would like to change the layout of the parameters toolbar, ie. make text boxes smaller widths, show/hide parameters based on other parameter values.
I know i could write my own web page that does this and hide the parameters toolbar when they run the report, but this would mean that we lose other functionality that report manager has, eg. scheduling.
Does anyone know if customising the report manager will become available in a later version??

I have tried searching the forums and cannot find anything really helpful. I have had one cube setup and a model generated before and all was workin, but i had to delete it and i recreated the SSAS cube from scratch.
My user account has admin rights on the cube and also on the servers.
Server is Windows 2003
Client is Windows XP.
Any one got anythoughts on this or how i can determine what is wrong.?
