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.
Could you please let me know how to resolve this.
thanks.
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?
Thanks in advance.
Is it possible to include a text/string as suffix(append to the end of textbox) to an report parameter prompt string ? Something like this
Enter Date: [ Textbox ] format:mm/dd/yyyy
Enter Age:[Textbox ] e.g 50
I need to include text like the one that I have highlighted in blue. Could someone help me out?
Request is to have a Requirement number from the requirement form generate a report in Reporting Services with the requirement number as a filter.
I can set up the parameter - how does the value get there? Should I be asking this question in the Visual C# group?
Thanks!

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?
Thanks
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.
Please help what have i missed.

Hi
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.
Can this be done?
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!!
What is wrong? What I forgot??
Thankx for any help!

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 am using report builder 3.0.
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.
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'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.Â
Is this a bug in Visual Studio? How do I get around this?Â
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.
OK, I'm pretty sure that the answer to my questions is "no", but the boss is pushing, and I thought I'd double check.
I want the selection of one report parameter to decide what shows up for another report parameter. Specifically in my case it has to do with dates. I have narrowed the results down to monthly dates, meaning that the starting dates always start with mm/1/yyyy and the ending dates are always mm/31/yyyy (for a 31 day month).
The boss wants the ending dates to always be >= the month of the starting dates. So, if the user choose 1/1/2007 for starting, the minimum ending date would be 1/31/2007, etc.. Since the parameters are loaded at report initiation, and SSRS isn't really event driven, I didn't think this was possible. I just wanted to make sure before I tell the boss that it's not. Please advise.
Here's tricky one.
I have a fairly complex report that was given to me that was hard coded for single parameters. There is a dropdown for each market (created from a query in SSRS). The users have to run for each market each week.
Is there a way to use this report as a Sub-report inside a list of a master report and then use a mult-value parameter?
I want this multi-value parameter to build the values for the list and then run the "sub-report" for each value.
Essentially, I want to create a for each loop.
Any ideas?
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.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am extracting RS reports through a WebService:
report = execService.Render("EXCEL", null, out extension, out mimeType, out encoding, out warnings, out streamIds);
Some works fine but some are generating the following SoapException:
Error during processing of €˜ReportParameterTime€™ report parameter. ---> Error during processing of €˜ReportParameterTime€™ report parameter. ---> Error during processing of €˜ReportParameterTime€™ report parameter.
I set required parameters to their default values. In this specific report I have two required parameters:
1: ReportParameterTime, String
2: ReportParameter1, String
I set them to their default values (ReportParameterTime to "[Czas].[Kalendarzowy].[Rok].&[2007]" - means
Time Calendar Year 2007) but I am getting the exception above. I set parameters using this code:
execService.SetExecutionParameters(parameterValues.ToArray(), CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.Name);
Where parameterValues is a List<ReportExecution2005.ParameterValue>.
When I am using Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ReportViewer the report is generated without
any problems. I can see one parameter to choose: "Kalendarzowy" (means adj. Calendar) and can
select years, the default value is "2007".
What am I doing wrong and how can I fix this error ? Does anybody know ?

Hi,
I'm having problems navigating from one report to another one if the second report has a multi-valued report parameter. When I navigate to the second report, I don't pass any parameters, but I get an error "parameter is missing a value" for the multi-valued report parameter. I have it setup as allow "multi-value" and "blank value". Any idea what the issue might be?
Thanks.

I am designing a report which will be used under the subreport control of a master report, now i am using a stored procedure for the subreport which has two parameters.
In the subreports dataset parameters tab, how can i mention the master reports columns, since i do not see the master reports columns here. since it is a different report.
If i use a hardcoded select query then i can just say
select address, city, state, zipcode from customer where (customerid = @customerID)
but i am using a stored proc. how to define the parameters under datasets parameter tab.
Thank you very much for the information.
I have a report parameter textbox in my SSRS report which has the parameter properties as "allow null value" and "allow blank value" checked.
How I can ensure that when the value is entered in textbox, it should accept any character ie. The SQL code I should write so that all the characters inputted via the report parameter are accepted.
Hi All,
I have a question, How to user the Multi value in Visual Studio Report Designer.
My dataset contains the following
Select empno,empname,basicpay,deptcd from employee where deptcd in (substring(@gdept,1,4))
Here variable gdept is the report parameter. I am passing the value.
it works fine with single value.
( the source of gdept is a another dataset to list the deparment code+name,
Example
DEP1 - COMPUTER
DEP2 - ADMIN
DEP3 - FINANCE
)
when I preview, i have a combo box to select the department.
If I choose one deparment, it works fine.
If I choose more than one department or select all I have error message
"substring function requires 3 aruguments."
what is wrong is the query
Please advise.
Cheers,
Saleem
I would like to modify some of the properties of a ServerReport entity from a desktop app using the ReportViewer control. In particular, I would like to have the document map displayed as expanded, and make some changes to the group toggle items based on the user's parameter selection.
Can someone please point me in the right direction? How do I get access programmatically to the ServerReport layout?
Thx
We recently had an issue where reports deployed under an account that was modified would no longer run subscriptions without deleting the reports and redeploying under a different account.
Is there a way to change the owner of all reports on the server? scripting or web service tips would be fine.
Thanks
Hi All
Can I change the name of a report depends on the parameters selected by end user?
Can you give me a similar expression?

Hi
I have a strange problem that basically consists of showing a report in Internet Explorer and then using the same Internet Explorer window to show an asp.net page that contains some form where the user can enter some data. In this scenario, the form won't be processed on the server. I really need to know why and how I can work around this problem.
Precisely the problem can be reproduced like this:
Environment: Server: Windows 2003 Standard Server SP1 (German), IIS 6, Client: Windows XP SP2, Internet Explorer 6
First I open a new Internet Explorer Window and let it show me a Reporting Services Report (by entering its url into the address bar). Everything works. Then I change the address to a simple web application's address that is built with asp.net (.net 1.1). The application contains only a form with a submit-button, a text box and a label, that shows the textbox' text after submit was clicked. But when I click the submit button, although the form seems to have been sent to the server (the green progress bar in the status bar is flickering), it's reset. So the label does not show the value I have entered into the the textbox and the textbox itself is cleared. This only happens when the browser was first showing a Report from Reporting Services, so when I open a new Browser Window and go directly to the web app, everything works fine.
It does not happen when I open the Browser directly on the server.
Thank you
Christian
Hello all!
Does anybody know, if it is possilbe to dynamically change grouping in a table report?
I mean, is it possible to provide the enduser the capability to group data in a table on whatever column he would like?
The second question is related:
Is it possible to make a usersort on a grouped table, in such way, that ALL the rows would be sorted ascended regardless of the group they belong to? (For now the only way I see to do this is to give the enduser possibility to turn off grouping manually)
Hi @ all,
I work on a german Windows environment and use the Report Builder. For showing details in their it is necessary to switch the German interface in Report Builder into English.
I already tried to change my environment into English but it even after a restart it did not change the Report Builder interface....
I also tried to search all the XML-files for a language setting - with no success....
Does anyone know how to do this? Would be very helpful....!
Thanks in advance,
Jochen
I have a report I want to modify and when I go to deploy it I get:
Changing the report parameters or data sources to the values you specified is not allowed. The report is configured to run unattended. Using the specified values would prevent the unattended processing of this report
Now I understand the error, it is because on the report server's web management interface I entered credentials for the report to run that point to a custom datasource and supplied the appropriate credentials to run the report.
However, I don't want to have to reconfigure that just to deploy a slightly modified version of the report.
How can I get around this? Or what is the proper work around? I just want to change the background color from dark gray to light gray on a header column....
Thanks!
When I am working on an Integrations Services project and I open a Reporting Services file, it displays it in the Code view. Is there a way to display it in the Design view? Or do I have to close the project and open up a Reporting Services project?
