Better Charting Capability

Jun 15, 2007

Has anyone heard as to whether Microsoft plans on updating the charting engine for Reporting Services? Right now I find the charting capability rather limited and would like to see richer charting capability. Is this a case where it is better to not wait for this feature as it will be way off into the future before this happens, or better charting features just are not in the scope of Microsoft's plans for Reporting Services. If either case is true then the best solution would be to purchase the full capabilities of Dundas Chart for Reporting Services.

Charting

Feb 6, 2007

I want to produce a combination Column / Line chart for sales and budgets by amount/month

Sales figures should be displayed as lines with a separate line for each year.

Budgets should be displayed as columns. I will only be displaying budgets for the current year.

Is it possible to do this within Reporting Services - if so what chart type do I use

Charting Parameter

Apr 8, 2008

Hello Experts,

Problem here. Trying to display database column information in a chart. Basically I have a dbase query that pulls different percentiles on transaction. So when I run the query, a number appears in the data for columns called 95th percentile, 97th percentile and 99th percentile.

Now I know how to filter the data in reports by a parameter, however I do not know how to show columns by a parameter. Specicially in a chart situation. So if I choose 95th Percentile in a parameter dropdown box, I want to see the chart for the 95th percentile column in the database, likewise with the other columns.

I am not sure how to show/hide these via a parameter when charting. Anyone have any ideas?

Custom Charting

Jan 6, 2008

I would like to create a bar chart and at the same time display some text after each bar.

I guess I could just create some textboxes on the chart, but I have a parameter that the user can change to specify the numbers of bars (therefore the number of textboxes, and the location of the textboxes are variables)

Is there anyway that I could do this in reporting services?

Thanks,
Steven

Charting Table Detail And Sum

Dec 13, 2005

I have a bar chart that displays the detail of a table with locations along the x-axis and number of employees on the y-axis. Is there any way to have the sum of all of the locations show as the final bar in the chart? (which would be the footer in the table)

Third Party .NET Charting Packages

Mar 19, 2007

Can SSRS be configured to use any third party .NET charting components or only ones that have been specifically designed for SSRS? I have seen a couple of third party charting software (Dundas, etc.) and while they are nice, they sell at a real premium and there are not many vendors offering SSRS charting. I was hoping for a bit better value and more of a selection to choose from.

Issue Charting Data Over Last 24 Hours...

Sep 5, 2007

I have a table which contains data regarding calls to the Help Desk, I want to chart this using a simple line chart in SSRS 2005 with the chart displaying the number of cases opened by the help desk each hour for the last 24 hours. Although our Help Desk provides 24/7 support, there are periods of an hour in which no calls are received. The issue I'm having is I want the chart to still display these hour periods of time even though there are no records created in the time span. I want the x-axis to display every hour for the last 24 hours.

Anyone have any suggestion on how I can accomplish this? The only idea I've come up with is creating a new table containing a list of every hour in a day and referencing this to build the x-axis...but it seems as though it should be easier than that?

Thanks in advance for any input or assistance.

Query Help / Capability

Oct 2, 2007

Hello, I am trying to achieve a query results with not much luck. I am struggling the query design of how to construct to get the right results.


My table has the following data


RoomID Subject StartDate Duration(min) EndDate
201 test 28/09/2007 07:00:00 180 28/09/2007 10:00:00

202 test 28/09/2007 09:00:00 240 28/09/2007 13:00:00



The best way to describe is a scheduling system with the StartDate, Duration, EndDate.


I am trying to query for datetime periods which are allocated, eg the table records show from 7am - 10am and 9am - 1pm are allocated.


When I query on StartDate >= 28/09/2007 07:00:00 AND EndDate <= 28/09/2007 13:00:00, record 201 & 202 shows which is correct because they are within query parameters and are allocated.


When I query on StartDate >= 28/09/2007 07:30:00 AND EndDate <= 28/09/2007 13:00:00, record 202 only shows which is correct because record 201 StartDate is before 07:00:00.


But my problem is I require record 201 to show because the time period between 07:00:00 and 09:00:00 is allocated and the query parameter is 07:30:00 which is still between 07:00:00 and 09:00:00.


I have researched where on similar situations, the use of duration is used, but I am unsure on its application to achieve results.

I have also read of other situations where a lookup table should be used, but again I cannot get my head around the application of a lookup table to query the resuults.



Does anyone have any theories, design thoughts or real work solutions they can help me with.



Thanks

MSDE Capability/Error Message

Jan 6, 2004

We are thinking of deploying MSDE for a modest traffic Intranet. According to this http://www.microsoft.com/sql/msde/howtobuy/msdeuse.asp 25 concurrent users should be fine.

What exception would we get if the MSDE was not handling the traffic?

What would be the best way to track/log how close we are getting to the 25 user max.

Thanks

Ideas In Designing Ad Hoc Capability Feature

Jul 23, 2004

I am looking for a solution to allow users to generate data by selecting tables-->columns-->where clauses on the fly.

I am thinking to maintain relationships, joins, etc., in some configuration tables. Based on the fields selected by the user, I can get these conditions and generate a query, execute and export to excel. Any ideas what is the good way of storing relationships, etc. in configuration table?

Also suggest if there is any good excel add-in to do adhoc reporting. Point me if there is any other ways of doing.

If I have to do it from scratch, i probably use VB.NET.

Any ideas, information is appreciated. thanks

Capability For Limiting # Of Package Instances?

Oct 5, 2007

1) How can I keep my package from running more thatn 1 instance at a time?

I tried changing "MAXCONCURRENT" to "1" in my DTEXEC command in batch file, however, this doesn't limit the # of instances. (If I run the batch file twice, one after the next, I get 2 instances running simultaneously).



2) What "executable files" is this definition referring to?


MAXCONCURRENT is defined as:

"Specifies the number of executable files that the package can run concurrently. The value specified must be either a non-negative integer, or -1. A value of -1 means that SSIS will allow a maximum number of concurrently running executables that is equal to the total number of processors on the computer executing the package, plus two."


Thx,

Mojo
