Custom Report Items With CustomData
Feb 5, 2008
Hi,
I'm currently on the task to develop a custom report item to display date values from a data source in a Gantt-chart-alike way.
I took a look at the documentation and the examples (especially [1]) but the documentation I found mainly concentrated on the case of assigning a single value to a custom property. As far as I can see I need to access the data source directly to retrieve the data I'd like to show. In the best case I could retrieve data sets only from a certain data grouping. But that's where I'm stuck. I realize I have to define the CustomData property in the designer component, but I have no clue what to set for DataRowGroupings, DataColumnGroupings, DataRows and so on.
I hope somebody can point me to some documentation about the contents of the CustomData class. The MSDN documentation I found is utterly incomprehensible to me.
Thanks in advance!

I have developed a custom report item that works fine in design and preview mode while in Visual Studio. I cannot get it to show up on my deployed reports. Here's what I have done so far:
1. Deployed the report using Visual Studio
2. updated the rsreportserver.config file with the following entry:
<ReportItems>
<ReportItem Name="PedigreeChart" Type="Uabr.Rap.PedigreeChart.PedigreeChartRenderer, Uabr.Rap.PedigreeChart" />
</ReportItems>
3. Updated the rssrvpolicy.config file with the following entry.
<CodeGroup
class="UnionCodeGroup"
version="1"
PermissionSetName="FullTrust"
Description="This code group grants Uabr.Rap.PedigreeChart.dll FUllTrust permission. ">
<IMembershipCondition
class="UrlMembershipCondition"
version="1"
Url="C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.3Reporting ServicesReportServerinUabr.Rap.PedigreeChart.dll" />
</CodeGroup>
I've also tried using the StrongNameMembershipCondition with no better results.
4. The dll and its dependencies are copied to the bin directory of the report server.
5. When I load a report with this custom report item on it, the report loads fine with no errors or warnings in the log file (even with verbose tracing). The area where the custom item should be is just white. It's almost like Reporting Services isn't registering the item correctly.
This is particularly frustrating because the report works fine in Visual Studio - apparently I configured that correctly. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm stumped.

Hi All,
I am using SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services and have successfully created and deployed a Custom Report Item to use instead of the standard Chart Control.
This new Item works fine in both Report Designer (Visual Studio) and when generating Reports on the Report Server
However, I have a requirement that the same chart style must be available in Report Builder. Unfortunately, when using Report Builder to create a new report I can only select Tabular, Matrix or Chart style, and the chart option uses the standard style which is not suitable.
I cannot see any obvious way of including a Custom Report Item within Report Builder, so I have 2 questions :
Can I use a Custom Report Item in Report Builder? None of the samples or tutorials that I have found give any indication of whether this is possible.
Thanks in advance

hello
i am currently trying to port a "Business Objects" report to SQL Server Reporting Services.
in B.O., there is a possibility to define the order of the table values by previewing the table values and moving them up or down.
Example : the dataset contains data for 3 items, so in the Custom Sort window, I will see these 3 items and I can order them by moving them up or down in a listbox.
is this possible to do in Reporting Services ?

I have developed a renderer that renders the xml to paint a rectangle with textboxes in all the right places based on the data retrieved off the database. When i render the a complete report to the reportviewer i have no problem.
I need however to render the rectangle into a custom report item for reusability and different scenarios. This just seem to be impossible since it seems like I cant use anything other than an imagemap to render custom report items. Is this true?
To make sure you understand....in other words....
Is there a way to develop a Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportRendering.IRenderingExtension that renders the required xml like rectangles/textboxes etc. and then migrate this to a custom toolbox item. It just seems like this should be a very easy thing to do and something regularly needed. For example when you want to use textboxes in certain positions within a rectangle to draw a organisational chart.

Analysis Services has a CustomData connection string property. You can put anything on it, then inside an MDX query you can use the CustomData() function to retrieve whatever was on the connection string. This is helpful for passing in a security token.
Is there anything equivalent for SQL Server?
I also posted this here, but got no response so thought I'd check in the security forum.

Hi All,
I am having a main report having two subreports, say M1,S1 and S2 respectively.
The issue is S2 normally tend to go beyond one page, for all pages except first page of the of the subreport I am getting the page header and footer blank,
Actually this is not loading the ReportItems that are used in main report but it shows text boxes containing strings for eg . "My Name" and date functions eg Today()
Any Solution?
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
I'm trying to deploy Reporting Services on an Internet-facing web server using a custom security extension (forms authentication). We will be putting Report Manager on the Web Server outside of the firewall, and Report Server on another machine inside the firewall. When testing the solution in a development environment with Report Manager and Report Server on the same box, the solution works fine.
When testing it using the Internet-facing environment described above, it almost works but there seems to be an issue with the authentication cookie that is generated. Here's what happens:
1. User enters credentials on UILogon.aspx and submits form.
2. In the code-behind, LogonUser() is called through a web service proxy and the authentication cookie is returned successfully. The code used here to set the cookie is the same code used in the Forms Authentication sample that ships with RS2005.
3. The user is redirected to Folder.aspx, and the request hangs for a while, and eventually kicks you back out to UILogon.aspx, as if it lost the authentication cookie. When doing a trace on the HTTP header, the cookie is still there.
Is there anything special I need to do to make the Report Server "see" the cookie when I have Report Manager and Report Server on different machines?
Any help would be much appreciated!

Hello everyone,
I created a custom assembly using C# to transform some binary data into text, and in this assembly I used one win32 dll developed by our customer to help me to do the tranformation.
The code I used to call the win32 dll is like below:
[DllImport("tdasuie.dll", EntryPoint = "AlrtLogConditionToText",
ExactSpelling = false, CharSet = CharSet.Auto, SetLastError = true)]
private static extern UInt32 AlrtLogConditionToText(Byte[] pbCondition, StringBuilder pszText, UInt32 dwSize);
I defined a C# method to call the above win32 method and return a string. Then in the report, I called this C# method to get the correct string.
In the report designer, the C# method in the custom assembly can return the correct string in the preview window. But after I deployed the report into the report server, the textbox will only display "#error" in the report manager web page.
Can anybody help me on it? Thanks a lot.

Hi,
I'm totally new to SSRS2005 and I was wondering if I could extend the existing report items. For instance, I'd like to add a few extra properties to the textbox report item. I tried wrting a custom Textbox control that inherits from System.Windows.Forms.Textbox. When I imported the dll in VS, the new textbox showed up in the toolbox, but it was grayed out.
Any idea what I'm missing here?
Thanks,
Phil

We are trying to do something basic with SRS but we can't seem to get iit to work. Here's the scenario: We want to send out a monthly report that consists of numerous subreports. Each subreport stands on its own withh its own data source.
On our main report we drag the subreports into position as we want them to display. But when we run the report sometimes we get 2 subreports on 1 page, other times we get 1.... Bottom line is that we want to get 7-8 subreports on one page. Any ideas on what we can do to get everything on one page?

Hi,
I'm new to visual studio and reporting services. We have report models, reports and data sources on a temporary server that need to get moved to a new report server. I have been able to upload certain reports to the new server but I'm still having problems with other items. What is the easiest way to move over these items to the new server? Is there a way from visual studio to connect to the old server? I want to save the items to my local drive and then upload them from there. Any suggestions will be highly appreciated. Thanks!

Does anybody knows how to reference a value inside a group in a Matrix.
I know it should be possible to use a calculated field, but I can't find a way to calculate a simple percentage!
example: (The Orders Group have "Received" and "Accepted" columns and these are created Dynamically, and I want to add a calculated field (ie. "%Accepted") to the group.
Simple Formula
%Accepted = "Accepted" / "Received"
i.e.
%Accepted = 5/10 :. (50%)
Matrix Object ( creates columns dinamically)
---------------------------------
Orders "Group"
---------------------------------
Received Accepted %Accepted
10 5 ?
Any Help or Ideas are very much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi. First, I am VERY new to SQL Queries and Reporting. A co-worker is "mentoring" me, but I am trying not to fill his day with questions.
I HAVE read the help files, searched the forums, looked at books, and done general web searches, but any answers I have found have either no addressed my issue, or the answers are way over my head.
Furthermore, the (SQL 2000) DB is built into proprietary software (ISS Proventia Intrusion Prevention System), and the database may NOT be modified outside of the software.
With that said, I am querying multiple tables within the DB. I am using Business Intelligence Dev Studio, and placing my queries on a reporting server maintained by my co-worker. My goal is not only to get a solution, but also to UNDERSTAND it so I can continue to learn. Of course, the solution takes precedence over my understanding!
My Primary key is dbo.SensorData1.SensorDataID. dbo.SensorDataAVP.AttributeText returns a different number of rows, containing different data depending upon the value of dbo.SensorData1.AlertName. I need to return all rows, hence the Left Joins.
Depending upon my query, I might have 1000 events, and due to the many rows of data from dbo.SensorData1.AlertName I might return 20,000 rows (or more.)
I would like to return a report that "groups" events by dbo.SensorData1.SensorDataID., BUT, rather than simply providing these in groups, provides me single rows with a plus sign next to each even, that can be expanded for the additional data.
My co-worker has discussed sub-tables, but since I cannot modify the DB, it will be difficult / complex to do so, AND, for me to understand.
One of my queries follows. I have thirteen queries, total, that use various groupings of attributes. I have chosen one of the more complex combinations so I can generally apply the concept to the queries with fewer parameters more easily.
Note, I'll be asking the same question on www.sqlservercentral.com in the hopes of getting an answer I can understand one of these two places - If you answer here, there's obviously no need answering there answering there.
Thank you in advance.

I'm not sure if this can be done. There are some threads that say yes and some that say no.
If my report's detail section is hidden unless toggled by group2 is there a way to retain the collapsed entries as collapsed when the report is exp[orted to excel?
Right now when I export to excel the report is all expanded. An export to pdf looks fine but I need to in excel.
I tried this and I must have done something wrong cause it did not work.
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2376478&SiteID=1
My orginal report rows are:
Table header
Group1
group2
Details
In details I have the visibilty as hidden, toggle item as group2_item.
I did try creating group3 and set it as the the above thread said.
I'm operating SSRS2000 with SP4.

Hi,
We have created a report chart, a simple bar graph, and need to put 2 vertical lines (target limits) on this chart, At the end we need to export this charts in excel and html, but it says that the overlapping of reports items is not supported in all renderers.
It seems that HTML and Excel donot support the overlapping of this 2 items.
Can anyone please help me in this issue? or is their any other alternative to get the chart and the static lines placed on this charts.

I have a table with a row group "Sales Area" that lists customers per sales area. There is one column with the sales per customer and another column with the planned sales per customer.A third column "Under Plan" is a simple calculation that compares the two Report Items of the sales to the plan and puts a 1 there if plan is higher. My issue is how to get the total of the group "Sales Area", to display the group total of all customers that are under plan. SSRS doesn't let me use aggregate functions on group totals;Unfortunately I cannot pre-calculate the "Under Plan" figure in the query, since this example is a simplified overview (the customers is a distinct count for example...)

Hi,
I have a web form which has 5 check boxes and i storing the values 1 - 5 for each check box the user clicks . I want to design part of a report in this fashion,
if the user clicks on the first checkBox i want A to appear in the report, and if the user clicks on the second i want B and so forth.
If the user clicks on A& B i want the data to be displayed as A,B. This is my sproc i am using.
Select
laa.PlanId,
laa.LoanId, ( 1-5 values are stored)
los.Name
From
LoansAttriApplied laa
Inner Join LoanOptions los on laa.LoanId = los.LoanId
Where
PlanId = @PlanId
So based on this Query if the user select 4 check boxes for plan No, 104 , I will get 4 rows. So based on the dataset i get
can I display the data in A,B or 1,2,3 instead of
1
2
3
Can someone please give me some insight into this.

I have the following record set; for each group where the code of OP=MTL summarize Cost; that is group 10-10= 300, group 20-20=300, group 30-30=600. Then I need to total groups 10-10 and 30-30.
I used ReportItems fields for each break as;
=SUM(IIF(Fields!OprSeq.Value=10 and Fields!RelatedOperation.Value = 10, Fields!Cost.Value,0), "Related Operation") etc,
But obviously when the result is false the ReportItem returns zero, and now I lost the value calculated previously.

I have a project with SQL sever reports in it. During a test upon returning to the VS 2013 Professional interface, the tool box area still had the previous information displayed and never returned to what should be there for the report design tools.I restarted VS, and the toolbox no longer looked like it did before. Specifically, the datatable tool among others was missing. I was unable to "refresh" the datatable after making changes to it.
I opened other Reports in design mode, and the tools did not show up for those either.The Report Items in the toolbox does contain things like Pointer, Text Box, Line and so forth.

How can I calculate a subtotal for a Report Item? I have a textbox(lets call it "PlusMinus") in the detail section of my table, which is a calculated textbox of two others (lets call them "Budget" and "Spent"). So, PlusMinus = (Budget - Spent). What I would like to do is get a subtotal for PlusMinus. I have tried several ways, using Sum() or RunningValue, even tried to write code, but I can't seem to get it right. Any ideas??

I am struggling to come up with a set-based solution for this problem (i.e. that doesn't involve loops/cursors) ..A table contains items (identified by an ItemCode) and the set they belong to (identified by a SetId). Here is some sample data:
SetIdItemCode
1A
1B
24
28
26
310
312
410
[code]....
You can see that there are some sets that have the same members:
- 1 and 10
- 2 and 11
- 7, 8 & 9
What I want to do is identify the sets that have the same members, by giving them the same ID in another column called UniqueSetId.

I have a problem with report built in SSRS and deployed with Dashboard Designer to Sharepoint. There are few filters connected to report, 2 of them are multivalue. Regardless of data returned, when I select too many items in filter, the report is getting super small. It doesn't matter what you select, size changes when you select exact number of items or more. I replaced report with single line (filters where still conected) - result was the same.
Small amount of items selected:
More items selected:
Size of the raport in Dashboard Designer is set to "Percentage of dashboard page", when I selected autosize, result was the same.

I'm having an issue creating a report that can group & sum similar items together (I know in some ways, the requirement doesn't make sense, but it's what the client wants).
I have a table of items (i.e. products). In some cases, items can be components of another item (called "Kits"). In this scenario, we consider the kit itself, the "parent item" and the components within the kit are called "child items". In our Items table, we have a field called "Parent_Item_Id". Records for Child Items contain the Item Id of the parent. So a sample of my database would be the following:
ItemId | Parent_Item_Id | Name | QuantityAvailable
----------------------------------------
1 | NULL | Kit A | 10
2 | 1 | Item 1 | 2
3 | 1 | Item 2 | 3
4 | NULL | Kit B | 4
5 | 4 | Item 3 | 21
6 | NULL | Item 4 | 100
Item's 2 & 3 are child items of "Kit A", Item 5 is a child item of "Kit B" and Item 6 is just a stand alone item.
So, in my report, the client wants to see the SUM of both the kit & its components in a single line, grouped by the parent item. So an example of the report would be the following:
Name | Available Qty
--------------------------
Kit A | 15
Kit B | 25
Item 4 | 100
How I can setup my report to group properly?
