I have inherited a web site from another developer. I am new to .net programming. Anyway I have had to add a parameter to an sql procedure and I thought i had made the change in the business logic layer correctly. I am using gridview to display and export to an excel spreadsheet. After my changes my page lets me select my parameters, but now my page come up blank, no error messages the only thing on the page are the save and export buttons.
I have 2 datasets for a report and I want to use a field from the first dataset to set a parameter value in the second dataset.
I am using the Report Parameters window to do this.
I set the parameter as hidden and then Non-queried setting the value to the field in the first dataset. I get an error stating that fields cannot be used in report parameter expressions.
So I tried to use the From query option. I selected the first dataset and then the value and label fields. I also set the default values to the same values.
The problem is that the parameter always has the same value which is the first record in the first dataset. How do I get the parameter to populate with the other values as the report runs?
I am generating report with my datasource to an OLAP Cube. I have scenario that there are 2 dimension tables pointing to a single fact table. According to a user input, i have to use one dimension table and not the other and vice versa. I tried using IIF statement in the MDX query designer., but was facing errors.
First of all i want to know if this is possible and if yes, how?
Also , Is it possible to open a window form on clicking any report data
(Similar to assigning hyperlink, but i want to open a window form instead!!!)
I am creating SSRS reports on top of SSAS cubes. I want the default value of parameter to change dynamically based on the current year or it should select the last of the parameter values.
The report has many multi-valued parameter collection. Each parameter has its own dataset attached to it and each parameter has got a list of many values. All parameters have a single default value dataset to return a DEFAULT value.
Now when the user selects value for each parameter, the reporting services takes times(atleast 5secs) to repaint/reload the whole page.
I have one page, one connection, and three dropdowns. The connection looks like (as an example):<asp:SqlDataSource ID="DropDownConn" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:aousConnectionString %>" SelectCommand="SELECT [Value], [Text] FROM [DropDown] WHERE (([Group] = @Group) AND ([Viewable] = @Viewable))"> <SelectParameters> <asp:Parameter Name="Group" Type="String" /> <asp:Parameter DefaultValue="True" Name="Viewable" Type="Boolean" /> </SelectParameters></asp:SqlDataSource> The DropDowns Look like this: <asp:DropDownList ID="DropDown1" runat="server"></asp:DropDownList><asp:DropDownList ID="DropDown2" runat="server"></asp:DropDownList><asp:DropDownList ID="DropDown3" runat="server"></asp:DropDownList>The C# Code I am trying is like this:DropDownConn.SelectParameters["Group"].Equals("DropDown1");DropDownConn.SelectParameters["Viewable"].Equals(true);DropDown1.DataSourceID = "DropDownConn";DropDown1.DataTextField = "Text";DropDown1.DataValueField = "Value";DropDown1.DataBind(); As an example. I can not get it done so that I don't have to create 3 dataconnections. Any help, PLEASE?
I am currently creating a report with SQL Server Reporting Service 2005 and have run into an issue where the user can change the value in a drop down and the report will reload without any data. Data will not show untill the "View Report" button is clicked. Is there any way to avoid the page reloading like this so that the user is not confuesed by the lack of data ans just thinks that nothing was suppose to show up?
I have two input felds recieved date from and to fields. I would like to put one checkbox (not one for from field and one for to field) and when you tick the checkbox, I would like to disable both input fields indicating null values for both input fields. Is it possible?? If yes, how to archieve that?
Hello, since a couple of days I'm fighting with RS 2005 and the Stored Procedure.
I have to display the result of a parameterized query and I created a SP that based in the parameter does something:
SET ANSI_NULLS ON SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON CREATE PROCEDURE [schema].[spCreateReportTest] @Name nvarchar(20)= ''
AS BEGIN
declare @slqSelectQuery nvarchar(MAX);
SET NOCOUNT ON set @slqSelectQuery = N'SELECT field1,field2,field3 from table' if (@Name <> '') begin set @slqSelectQuery = @slqSelectQuery + ' where field2=''' + @Name + '''' end EXEC sp_executesql @slqSelectQuery end
Inside my business Intelligence Project I created: -the shared data source with the connection String - a data set : CommandType = Stored Procedure Query String = schema.spCreateReportTest When I run the Query by mean of the "!" icon, the parameter is Prompted and based on the value I provide the proper result set is displayed.
Now I move to "Layout" and my undertanding is that I have to create a report Paramater which values is passed to the SP's parameter... So inside"Layout" tab, I added the parameter: Name allow blank value is checked and is non-queried
the problem is that when I move to Preview -> I set the value into the parameter field automatically created but when I click on "View Report" nothing has been generated!!
I have two report , first is main report which is matrix and have one parameter User_ids which is multi value selection and my second report is basic chart of user_wise performance.
Now, my main report (matrix ) works fine for Multiple selection of users and i have putted one textbox on main report chart which has action properties set for chart report, when user click on chart button it must goes to chart with user selected in main report. Now , i have used expression for parameter to send it like ..
=join(parameter!user_id!value,",") which pass selected value to chart
And when I am selecting single user it passing that value to chart parameter list but , when it is more than one user it errors with conversion failed when converting the nvarchar value '121,128' to data type int. But my chart also works when passing 121,128 in user parameter in preview of report .
I need "conditional" cascading parameters: In Report Manager when one changes parameter 1, parameter 2 get changed based on parameter 1. Optionally, one can also enter values to parameter 2 directly.
I was able to achieve this in SSRS 2000 (SP2) with the following setups. SSRS 2005 and SP1 no longer works - Parameter 2 always shows its default value regardless whether one select a value in Parameter 1 or not.
Parameter 1 available values: from query default values: non query (specify a value "<None>") Parameter 2 available values: Non query (no value specified) default values: from query (based on Parameter 1)
It seems to me that the default value in SSRS 2000 is considered as cascading parameter. But it is no longer the case in SSRS 2005.
Is this a SSRS 2005 bug? is there any other work arounds or suggestions?
I have parameters in my report. The user can choose the year, month and date (3 parameters). Now I want to set default vaules for the parameters , so that the user sees the report for example for the current day without selecting the parameters. I tried to set the type of the parameters to DateTime and the default value for example for the year to "=Today().Year" . But when I execute the report an error occures . Something like : no validValue for this parameter.
My Attributes for the year month and date are from an Analyis Services Cube from a Server Time dimension . Does somebody know how to make it possible to set default values for this parameters?
Other question :
Does somebody know how I can reduce the values for a parameter. For Example I have a parameter "year" from a server time dimension from a cube. The values which are available are "Year 2004", "Year 2005", "Year 2006", "Year 2007". But I want that the user only can choose "Year 2006" or "Year 2007" ant not every Year or "All". Or Other Example: The User should only choose a Date that is int the past or Today but not a Date in the future.
my dataset from sharepoint list. and this dataset value assign to parameter. i want when no any parameter is selected than it should filter like "ALL". when i select alow null value it give me prompt error you can not select null in multivalue parameter.How can i do it. i am using share point list.
Does anyone know if this is possible right out of the box in SSRS 2005 against an OLAP data source?
I have several parameters. My second parameter is to be filtered based on the first parameter (kinda like cascading), but how do I do this against an OLAP data source? Lets say I have param1 and param2 in a dataset. I want Param2 to show the locations only based on what I select in Param1. Same but a little different: I have Parameter1 and then my second parameter (Param2) is a boolean (True/False). I want to show Parameter 3/Paramater 4 based on selection of Param2 (So, if true, show Param3, if false, show Param 4) and remember we are doing this in a sequence. Can you do this thru SSRS? Any help would be great. Thanks for your time in advance. Kent
Is it possible to fill a parameter list with values based on another parameter value? Here's what I have so far (which hasn't worked)... I'd like to generate a report listing information for a student. The report viewer would first select a school from the first drop-down menu, and then the second drop-down menu would populate with the list of students at that school. I have a dataset that calls a sp which returns a list of schools (SchoolID and SchoolName fields from the database table). I have another dataset that calls a sp (with SchoolID as the parameter) which returns a list of students for that school. Both datasets return the appropriate data when tested individually, but when I set up the Report Parameters and build the report, these errors come up... The value expression for the query parameter '@SchoolID' refers to a non-existing report parameter 'SchoolID'. The report parameter 'Student' has a DefaultValue or a ValidValue that depends on the report parameter "SchoolID". Forward dependencies are not valid. ...Is it possible for the reoprt to generate a list of available parameter values based on the value selected for another parameter? Any help you can give me would be great!! Thank you
I am using reporting services 2012, Can we make visibility of report parameter dynamic, ie can we make parameter visible or hide on certain condition or its visibility depends on other parameters Is this feature available in any other updated version of ssrs?
I had thought that this was possible but I can't seem to figure out the syntax. Essentially I have a report where one of the parameters is populated by a stored procedure.
Right now this is easily accomplished by using "exec <storedprocname>" as the query string for the report parameter. However I am not clear if it is possible to now incorporate User!UserID as parameter to the stored procedure. Is it? Thanks
I would like to be able to adjust the multi-value property of a parameter based on the value of another parameter in my report. The controlling paramter would be binary with two options for Single or Multiple selection. I would like my parameter to default to multi-value, which I can do on the screen selection. I have tried to add an IIF statement to the XML code, with no success. Any ideas would be helpful.
I have a report parameter called para1 which is a drop-down list and what I want to do is display another report parameter based on the para1 selection.
So for example, para1 contains a, b, c choices. if a user selects b, I would like para2 to display but if the user selects a or c, I don't want the para2 to display.
Using SQL Server 2008R2 and Report Builder 3.0..I have an action set in a text box of a table. My intent is to pass the value of that text box (which is variable) to a sub-report in a popup window. Here's my code: URL....The parameter of the report I'm trying to open is @SONum.I'm guessing my error is involved in the formatting of how the value of the parameter is being passed. I've also seen examples where the report server and report values were parameterized, but I don't know where to define
Parameters!ServerAddress.Value anywhere.Do I need to have something set up a certain way within the report I'm opening? Here's the report Parameter settings on the report I'm trying to open.
I'll go to a dataset, open up the query designer, add a new parameter, then refresh the fields, but the parameter won't be added as a report parameter. If I go to the dataset properties under the list of parameters, the value in the dropdown will be blank. However, sometimes this will automatically add.
Is this a bug in Visual Studio? How do I get around this?
I want to set the default parameters for a function. I;d like to set the date start date to current date and end date for the last 90 days. how to make this work?
Create Function HR.Equipment ( @startdate Date =(Convert(Date,DATEADD(DAY,-1,GETDATE())), @enddate Date = (Convert(Date,@StartDate-90) ) RETURNS TABLE AS RETURN ( SELECT EquipID, EmpName, IssueDate FROM HR.Equipment WHERE IssueDate <=@StartDate and IssueDate >=@EndDate ) GO
After running my ssis pkg for some time with no problems I saw the following error come up, probably during execution of a stored procedure ...
An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E14. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80040E14 Description: "The formal parameter "@ReportingId" was not declared as an OUTPUT parameter, but the actual parameter passed in requested output.".
I see some references to this on the web (even this one) but so far they seem like deadends. Doe anybody know what this means? Below is a summary of how the variable is used in the stored proc.
The sp is declared with 21 input params only, none of them is @ReportingId. It declares @ReportingId as a bigint variable and uses it in the beginning of the proc as follows...
Code Snippet select @ReportingId = max(ReportingId) from [dbo].[GuidToReportingid] where Guid = @UniqueIdentifier and EffectiveEndDate is null
if @ReportingId is null BEGIN insert into [dbo].[GuidToReportingId] select @UniqueIdentifier,getdate(),null,getdate() set @ReportingId = scope_identity() END ELSE BEGIN select @rowcount = count(*) from [dbo].[someTable] where ReportingId = @ReportingId and...lots of other conditions
...later as part of an else it does the following...
Code Snippet if @rowcount > 0 and @joinsMatch = 1 begin set @insertFlag = 0 end else begin update [dbo].[GuidToReportingId] set EffectiveEndDate = getdate() where ReportingId = @ReportingId insert into [dbo].[GuidToReportingId] select @UniqueIdentifier,getdate(),null,getdate() set @ReportingId = scope_identity() end
...and before the return it's value is inserted to different tables.
I have created a menu report listing available reports and am setting the Jump to settings of each text box in the list to take the user to the relevent report. But I am having a problem setting up drill down to reports with multivalued parameters.
What I want to happen when the user drills down is for the report to open up with no parameter values selected. This works for single value parameters where I have set Null as the default value. But I have not been able to figure out how to do this with MVPs. Does anybody know if this is possible?
As a workaround I have been using Jump to URL (rather than Jump to report), which has no problem opening the report without having to pass any values for the MPV. But I do not like using this as I use different DEV/UAT and PROD environments so would have to amend the URL for each environment.
Seems like this should be possible... Any idea?
Cheers, Mike
PS: I should add I can Jump to reports with MVP without specifying a parameter in development studio but not when the report is published.
I have a parameter (hidden) that gets its value using an expression base on another parameter. When in the designer, the first time when the designer loads I can select the Parameter that controls the child parameter (expression lies in the default value section). The value changes.
When I change the parent parameter again, the value of the child parameter does not seem to change.
How can I make this parameter change automatically when the parent is changed ?
I have a stored procedure which takes an input parm and is supposed to return an output parameter named NewRetVal.

I know i can accomplish this by setting a session variable on page load on the server side (Session["UserName"]= User.Identity.Name) and then use a session parameter, but I was wondering how to do it without using session variables, i was hoping the following code would work, but it doesn't. Thanks for any ideas.
I have a dataset listing distinct values for items (like 1, D10, M4, etc.) The WHERE statement in my query refers to unit IN(@Unit). I then have 2 report parameters to select 1) a date (datetime); and 2) a multivalue parameter to select one or all of the "units". I would like the second parameter to default to "Select All". Can someone tell me how to do this? I'm sure this is a fairly simple thing but I am really struggling. The report parameter is set as multivalue; My "available values" is set to "from query" and refers to my "unit" dataset and the value and label fields are set to "unit" (only field I bring into this particular dataset). The "Default Values" section is set to "from query" , the dataset is set to "unit" and the value is set to "unit". I can preview the report and select a date but the list of units comes up with all boxes unchecked, including "Select All". Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks.
I have this semi-complex query that is selecting items from numerous tables residing on 2 different databases. So far the query works perfectly. Here is the problem: The user is given the option of selecting items based on whether a course is Completed (C) Incomplete (I) Passed (P) Failed (F) or (ALL). I am not really sure how to do the select all, the others I can do depending on the value...
Any thoughts??
