I have a report that runs monthly and they want to see the previous 2 months of data. This data is stored no place other than the snapshot of the same report for the previous 2 months. Is there any way I can display the last 2 snapshots/history withing my report? Thanks.
View 1 RepliesWe have a need to report on historical data when none exists in the database.
Create a tabular report rdl that is run on a regular schedule. This report run is saved as an Excel sheet that overwrites the previous run, which has the same name.
Report is designed to use two data sources--the database and and the previously run Excel sheet. The data is "merged" using the Lookup function thereby creating a new report that includes the history needed.
Can we show the data of a report for previous month? The report is supposed to run montly basis. But once it is run, it shows the data only for the previous month.
we can show it if its only for previous day. In this case it is like this;
cdtable.SubmittedDate = GETDATE () - 1
But I dont find function like GETMONTH() or smthing.
Thanks

I would like to know if there is a way to maintain the history of changes to the reports that have been published to the report server?
I know that the report definitions get saved onto ReportServer database. But let's say a user makes a change to the published report and then saves it back to the server. And that the latest change was incorrect and I have to revert back to the previous version of the published report. Is there a way to do that? Does the report server maintain a history of previous versions.
There is a history for each report and I think that corresponds to the history of report executions (output data). But I am talking about the history of actual report definition.
Thanks for you help.
Hi all,
I have two problems.
1. I downloaded ChartFXRSTrial and created one chart, and able to deploy it in ReportServer, but the problem is the reports are not showing there, i checked the configuration of .dll files in the help provided by chartFX, but couldn't get anything, so could help me on this.
2. How to give Tooltip for the X- axis or Y- axis values in the ReportServer , i tried using chartproperties of .rdl file, but didnt understand it. can help me on this, and one more i tried with Dundas too, If im giving tooltip as #valy then, it is showing samething in reportserver instead the values of 'Y-axis'.
Thanks,

I have two seperate reports that have parameter clientkey in common. I want to show on one report these 2..first the one, then the 2nd below it. I've tried jsut using 2 tables but they overlap. I'm now trying a subreport, but I'm not sure how to do this or even if it is the right method.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI was curious to know if there is a way to create a report that will show when the last time all reports on our server were run. We have a lot of reports on our server made by multiple people that may or may not be in use anymore and we're trying to clean this up a bit. I am currently running SQL Server 2000. I realize there is a history that each report has and I'm wondering if it's possible to pull from that if it is stored somewhere that is accessible. Any help or direction would be much appreciated as I am not even sure where to start.....
View 9 Replies View RelatedWe have a statutory requirement to keep 5 years of history, so I've checked the option in the Site Settings page in the Report Manager to "Keep an unlimited number of snapshots in report history". The drives are partitioned as follows:
C: -- OS; 20GB
D: -- Apps; 20GB
E: --Data: 160GB

I have several reports in a Power View Gallery. In Gallery view, most of the reports show the "Open New Excel Workbook", the "Create Power View Report", and the "Manage Data Refresh" buttons on the right side of the report list. Why would some reports not have these buttons available? In the attached image you can see one report with the buttons and one without the buttons.

I have 12 month report and I need show volume and difference between current and prev month volume, what is the smart way to do this, do I need to put prev month value onto same row horizontally? I think should be some other smart way, I heard about LEAD function?
This what I think for now, It should be listed per ClientID also, in my example I have single ClientID for simplicity.
I tried to do LEAD but with not success..
/*
IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#t') is not null drop table #T;
WITH R(N) AS
(SELECT 1 UNION ALL SELECT N+1 FROM R WHERE N <= 12 )
SELECT N as Rn,
10001 ClientID,
DATENAME(MONTH,DATEADD(MONTH,-N,GETDATE())) AS [Month],
[code]....
We have a SSRS report that runs on snapshots. The report contains a textbox that displays the report name using the Global!ReportName built-in field.
Recently, we changed the RDL name to something else but this seems to have affected the snapshots too. The older snapshots (generated before the name change) are showing the updated name.
Just wondering if there is some way to say that the snapshot will show the report name based on the time it was generated (same as the ExecutionTime built-in field). Why is there a difference?
Hi,
i've used sql 2000 to create reports. Now i have almost 100 reports with lot of history (snapshots). Now i've developed the same reports in 2005 (basically upgraded the reports). If i upload the new reports, the 2000 history will be lost. Is there anyway that i can upgrade to 2005 and save the history ??
Thanks
comparing UNIQUEIDENTIFIER columns..This query returns several rows where the [ReportId] and [LastRunDate] columns are both NULL:
SELECT [c].[Name],[c].[ItemID],[xl].[ReportID]
, MAX([TimeStart]) [LastRunDate]
FROM [dbo].[Catalog] [c]
LEFT JOIN [dbo].[ExecutionLogStorage] [xl] on [c].[ItemID] = [xl].[ReportID]
WHERE [c].[Type] NOT IN (1,5) -- Not a folder or a data source!
group by [c].[Name],[c].[ItemID],[xl].[ReportID]
order by 4
However, trying to just list catalog reports with no execution history returns 0 rows, but I'm expecting it to return a row for every NULL [ReportId] from the above query:
SELECT *
FROM [dbo].[Catalog]
WHERE [Type] NOT IN (1,5) -- Not a folder or a data source!
AND [ItemID] NOT IN (SELECT [ReportID] FROM [dbo].[ExecutionLogStorage])
I even tried casting [ItemId] and [ReportId] columns in the 2nd query to VARCHAR(255), and still got no rows, but the following queries return 0 rows and 1 row (respectively).
select * from [dbo].[ExecutionLogStorage] where [ReportID] = '0BB2209C-7736-46C8-AD02-4614EBA4F0F1'
select * from [dbo].[Catalog] where [ItemID] = '0BB2209C-7736-46C8-AD02-4614EBA4F0F1'

I'm trying to create a report in Sql Server 2005 Reporting Services where it will display duplicates rows in the reports. I'm unable to find the property that enables this. I would need something like HideDuplicates = false, but that is not the way it is intended to be used. If HideDuplicates is left blank, it seems to still hide duplicate values if the preceding row matches.
The report is a crosstab type, so we are using a Matrix for the report item. I'll illustrate with a simple example:
This is what we currently get:
Catagory
Class
Detail
Type 1
A
Item 1
B
Item 2
Item 3
Type 2
A
Item 4
B
Item 5
This is what we want:
Catagory
Class
Detail
Type 1
A
Item 1
Type 1
B
Item 2
Type 1
B
Item 3
Type 2
A
Item 4
Type 2
B
Item 5
I'm sure its something simple, but we just cant seem to find the solution,
Thanks

We were having a standards meeting today at my company and we talked about the show/hide details button in the UI. We hide reports all the time because they are sub-reports and aren't meant to be run on their own. If we can't hide the "Show Details" button and we can't ban the user with security from running the sub-report because they need to run the Main report which runs the sub-report, then what do we do?
I'd think we have the have the ability to to hide things, or least a creative way to hide them; but I don't want to deploy sub-reports to wierd places just to get around this.
The following posts reference this topic, but didn't address it; yet raise this question.
Thoughts?

p.s. Just my own two cents, it would seem like a nice feature to be able to hide the "show details" button because there are advantages to hiding things.
I have a a microsoft sql server installed on my xp::
9.00.3042.00 SP2 Developer Edition
not being able to get the "reports" option (for customer reports) in the context menu (rightclicking on a database name) does it have to do with the version of the sql server I am running?
I have been told otherwise and I have reinstalled sp2 twice..
any help will be appreciated.

Thanks inadvace for your help!
I have a report that has three levels of grouping including headers (containing titles) and footers (containing summary values). I would like to programatically show/hide these header/footer sections based on a Show/Hide paramter. Is that possible? Currently I work around the problem by just having two physical reports (one with the header/footers, one without)

Hi All ,
I have a user in Report Manager as Browser.
I want this user to create report snapshots but when i give this permission to this user with Manage report history permission , this user can also make changes on execution properties and history properties of the report.
Is there a way to let the user only and only create & view report snapshots but not modify the execution and history properties of the report ?
There is a report when you click servername, report and run SCHEMA CHANGE HISTORY

Hi,
To programmatically invoke a subscription we can use -
exec ReportServer..AddEvent 'TimedSubscription', '575F96C6-A1BD-49FD-9C2F-934FC9658780'
How can we programmatically cause a Manual Report History Snapshot to be created.
I know it can be done using the Webservice. How would we do it using the ReportServer stored procedures. Which SP/SP's can we call. With what parameters.
TIA,
Sam.
Hi all,
I'm very new to report builder and I don't even know if this is possible. Some of my users have asked if they can build an ad-hoc report to show say top 50 annual salaries. This has to be done soley with whatever report builder has for building ad-hoc reports as that's all the users have access to.
Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks.

View 0 Replies View RelatedHello,
I am creating a sales report that needs to display Sales statistics for a selected month grouped by Material. Also, it needs to display the same stats for the selected month of the previous year. Finally, it needs to display Year To Date Statistics for the current year and previous year up to and including the selected month.
Currently, I am using 3 queries to do this. The first one gets the statistics the current month grouped by material. The others sprocs get their corresponding information by me passing in the material number and the month and doing the appropriate sum. So, essentially, for a single line of the report, 3 queries are being done. The problem arises in that sometimes there may be as many as 300 materils displayed in a given month, which amounts to alot of db activity and a long delay loading the report.
Is there anyway to get this information in one swoop using some fancy aggregation?
Thanks,
Jake
We are using SSRS 2012. Before we were with 2005. Both the versions have the problem. When a change made to parameters (like adding additional parameter to existing report or changing default value of parameter) using visual studio on developers machine and re-deploy to server, additional parameter or changes to parameter is not showing up. So, we are first deleting the report from server and then re-deploying. This works fine. But we realized that we are losing history of the report (like data related to this report run from execution log). We need the history of report. It is very important to top management to see the details.When I searched in forums, users say that it still exist in 2012 and 2014 and every one talks about deleting and re-deploying report. I would like to know if there is any other alternate route to redeploy additional parameter and not lose history.

Hello,
Since a week we have a strange problem.
We are using SQL Server 2005 with SP2 on a Windows Server 2003 updated last time in November. We have 2 servers like this, one is a virtual machine and the second one, a physical one.
Since a week, sometimes, the reports in the web report viewer just don't show. They keep loading for hours without showing anything. Beside, everything's fine, the server has plenty of free resources (CPU, RAM...), Visual Studio works normally, SSMS too. We can even go in http://localhost/reports and http://localhost/reportserver and see the folders, files etc... but when trying to load a report (what ever it is, even a small one) nothing comes, not even the message "Report is loading".
It happens not every day, sometimes two or three times a day at different hours.
In the Windows event viewer, nothing.
In the SSRS logs, nothing (as far as I can understand these logs).
It looks as if a job or a process was running and was blocking the reports or a service which would stop automatically.
To have it work again, a reboot of the server works or within 2 or 3 hours, it comes back to normal state.
If someone has an idea of what can be the problem or some tips, please feel free because we are running out of ideas.
Thanks in advance
