Reporting Services :: Available Parameter Values And Setting Defaults On Report Server
Jun 3, 2015I have a report with a subscription enabled and the default values that are selected for the report frequently change. Â I have our report server locked down so that the users can't change the defaults, but I now want to empower them to maintain this on their own. Â Here is my dilemma. Â When you have the available parameters set up to pull from a query, the defaults on the report server have to be keyed in manually, which is not an option. Â The only way to get a check box there, is to explicitly specify the available values.I need my available values to be database driven and I need to be able to select my defaults on the report server using check boxes.

Column Defaults As Parameters And/or Column Values
Jan 7, 2008Good afternoon,
I am trying to figure out a way to use a columns default value when using a stored procedure to insert a new row into a table. I know you are thinking "that is what the default value is for", but bare with me on this.
Take the following table and subsequent stored procedure. In the table below, I have four columns, one of which is NOT NULL and has a default value set for that column.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[TestTable](
[FirstName] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
[LastName] [nvarchar](50) NULL,
[SSN] [nvarchar](15) NULL,
[IsGeek] [bit] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_TestTable_IsGeek] DEFAULT ((1))
) ON [PRIMARY]
I then created the following stored procedure:
CREATE PROCEDURE TestTable_Insert
@FirstName nvarchar(50),
@LastName nvarchar(50),
@SSN nvarchar(15),
@geek bit = NULL
AS
BEGIN
INSERT INTO TestTable (FirstName, LastName, SSN, IsGeek)
VALUEs (@FirstName, @LastName, @SSN, @geek)
END
GO
and executed it as follows (without passing the @geek parameter value)
EXEC TestTable_Insert 'scott', 'klein', '555-55-5555'
The error I got back (and somewhat expected) is the following:
Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'IsGeek', table 'ScottTest.dbo.TestTable'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
What I would like to happen is for the table to use the columns default value and not the NULL value if I don't pass a parameter for @geek. OR, it would be really cool to be able to do something like this:
INSERT INTO TestTable (FirstName, LastName, SSN, IsGeek)
VALUEs (@FirstName, @LastName, @SSN, ISNULL(@geek, DEFAULT))
Does this make sense?
Database Constaint Violation Error In SQL For Great Plains
Feb 1, 2006Hi there. We're doing a save on a MS Great Plains with SQL Server screen and get the following error:
"A save operation on table 'WS_Time_Sheet_TRX_WORK' failed because a database constraint was violated."
If I hit More Info it says:
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]INSERT statement conflicted with COLUMN FOREIGN KEY constraint 'FK_WS10702_UPR00100'. The conflict occurred in database 'NSP', table 'U00100PR', column 'EMPLOYID'.
I know these messages probably make perfect sense to you guys, but I'm a newbie. Can you point me in the right direction? My thinking is that maybe I should force the foreign key constraint using the "WITH NOCHECK" option or maybe the wrong data type is mapped between the two tables sharing the Foreign Key and the key should be deleted and recreated.
Any help you can provide would be most appreciated! Assume that I'm a newbie and that I know very little. You won't hurt my feelings if you "dumb it down" so I can understand where to begin! lol I'm not even entirely sure I know where to look to edit the connection in the first place.
SharePoint Set Server Defaults
Feb 22, 2007Hi guys,
I have a problem when configuring SharePoint and RS on two boxes. (If install everything in one box is fine)
I have SQL SP2 + RS in one server and SharePoint on the other server. I've followed every step in the SQL 2005 Online Book to configure the RS and SharePoint including:
How to: Install the Windows SharePoint Services Object Model on a Report Server Computer. (Done)
How to: Configure Service Accounts (Reporting Services Configuration). (Done)
However, I got an error when click "Set server defaults" in SharePoint Central Admin:
An unexpected error occurred while connecting to the report server. Verify that the report server is available and configured for SharePoint integrated mode.
In ReadMe of SQL SP2, see below: http://download.microsoft.com/download/f/d/c/fdcb3a53-0cb1-4e67-a1b6-45b89b3c59cf/readme_rsaddin.htm#_rsshare_known_problems_7

6.4 Service account requirements for Reporting Services
Restrictions on using built-in accounts apply to some deployment topologies of Reporting Services that include a report server running in SharePoint integrated mode. The following combination of factors will result in service account requirements:
The report server is integrated with a SharePoint farm comprising more than one computer.
The report server and SharePoint Central Administration Web site run on separate computers.
In this scenario, if either the Report Server Web service or Windows service runs under a built-in account such as NetworkService, the Grant database access option in SharePoint Central Administration will not work correctly. Consequently, accessing any Reporting Services feature through a SharePoint site will result in the following error:
"An unexpected error occurred while connecting to the report server. Verify that the report server is available and configured for SharePoint integrated mode. --> Server was unable to process request. --> Client found response content type of 'text/html; charset=utf-8', but expected 'text.xml'."
To avoid this error, choose one of the following approaches:
On the computer that hosts the report server, continue to run the Report Server Web service as NetworkService and add the built-in account, such as NT_AUTHORITYNetworkService to the WSS_WPG Windows group.
Configure the service accounts to run under a domain user account as follows:
Start the Reporting Services Configuration tool and connect to the report server.
Click Windows Service Identity, click Windows Account, type a domain user account, and click Apply.
Click Web Service Identity, for Report Server, click New, type an application pool name, click Windows Account, type a domain user account, and click Apply.
Reset IIS.
Restart the Windows service.

I did try it out but still get the error when clicking "Set server defaults" link in SharePoint Central Admin.
Is there something wrong with the two boxes installation???
Hope the MS guys can help.

Reporting Services Addin - Set Server Defaults Error
Sep 18, 2007Hey All,

However, when I go to Central Administration and click on "Set Server Defaults"...I am getting a "401.1 Unauthorized..." error.I setup the Manage Integration to TrustedAccount and the Grant DatabaseAccess to the account that is the Server.Farm and local administrator.
In the Reporting Services Configuration, I used SSRSWebAccount for WebService and SSRSWindowsAccount for WindowsService and the RSAppPool which is the ApplicationPool for ReportingServices Web Site uses the SSRSWindowsAccount only.
Anybody..please help.

Unable To Perform Set Server Defaults In Sharepoint 3.0 Central Administration
Apr 12, 2007I'm not quite sure where to post this question, so I'll try here. We've been struggling getting SQL2005 reporting services integrated with Share Point Services 3.0 for several days now.
We've installed SQL Reporting Services with SP2 and run the SharePoint Reporting Services add-in. We've been able to go through the SQL Reporting Services Configuration and now were at the last step in the SharePoint Application Management Reporting Services configuration.
The first two steps of Manage Integration Settings and Grant Database Access was sucessful. The final step of "Set Server Defaults" gives us a 404 error message. There is nothing in the Event Log to suggest that there was a problem, and the SQL2005 Server is in SharePoint Integration mode. I've searched but can't find a solution. Can anyone steer me in the right direction please?

WeekDay Defaults...
Feb 27, 2001Hi!
I´m experiencing problems with datepart(weekday,...) function. In particular with week 54 of 2000... (by the way, don´t make a bet about that, because Jan 1st. was saturday (last day of week) and year 2000 was a leap year!!!, so Dec 31 became the one and only case of 54 weeks... in our calendar).
Is there a way I can fix sunday as first day of week, instead using SET DATEFIRST in every procedure? (because "somebody" puts MONDAY as a default in spanish)
Thanx in advance,
César.

DateTime Defaults
Jan 17, 2007I'm having some problems when trying to import an external table into my SQL Server 7.0 DB. When date fields are being created the datatype is being set to smalldatetime which is causing errors because some of the data in the source table is using dates proir to 1900.
Is there a way I can set the datatype to be set as datetime instead of smalldatetime?
Overriding Defaults
Sep 26, 2007I have a stored procedure that has @BeginDate and @EndDate as parameters. I created a report with a default for both. They run just fine. After I deployed, I created Linked Reports and wanted to override the defaults. In the defaults, I tried to put in GetDate() for @BeginDate and GetDate()+10 for the @EndDate so this can be passed in the where statement of the stored procedure. I get 'Syntax error converting datetime from character string.'
What I assume is that if I override the default, the stored procedure will process what I put in the @BeginDate and @EndDate parameters.
The where statement looks like:
and (m.BeginDate >= @BeginDate) and (m.EndDate <= @EndDate)
I'm using Reporting Services 2005 and SQL Server 2005.
Thanks, Iris

Nov 28, 2007
Thanks in advance for fielding my question!
I have parameters (type=datetime) on a report whose values are populated from a query. This query just pulls a list of all the dates (all Sunday dates) in a table. I have the parameter set up to have the date as the value and then a string representation of the value as the label (ie 2007-11-25) to make it easier for the user.
I want to set up a default for this parameter that essentially takes today's date and calculates the previous Sunday's date so the parameter drop down defaults to last Sunday's date.
My expression works fine just to display it on the report in a text box. It calculates and displays last Sunday's date perfectly. BUT, it doesn't work when I use it in the expression for the parameter default - Im' assuming because the latter cares about data type?
here's my statement:
=Iif(Now.DayofWeek=1,dateadd("d",-1,Now),(Iif(Now.DayofWeek=2,dateadd("d",-2,Now),(Iif(Now.DayofWeek=3,dateadd("d",-3,Now),(Iif(Now.DayofWeek=4,dateadd("d",-4,Now),(Iif(Now.DayofWeek=5,dateadd("d",-5,Now),(Iif(Now.DayofWeek=6,dateadd("d",-6,Now),(Iif(Now.DayofWeek=7,Now,0)))))))))))))
In short all those if statements calculate the day of last Sunday's date based on Now()...so if it's Monday, subtract 1, if it's Tuesday, subtract 2...etc.... BUT this returns the time also - argh! Formats!
How can I format this so it will equate to my oracle date populating in my parameter list? Do I need to match the output of the above statement to the LABEL (ie, string) or the actual VALUE (ie, date). I've tried both. I've hacked at this thing for an hour and I'm sure it's so obvious!
Thanks!

SqlParameter Defaults To Nvarchar For Strings

Is there any way to make SqlParameter default to varchar if you don't explicitly set a type for a string value?

View 1 Replies View RelatedUse DEFAULT CONSTRAINTs Or BOUND DEFAULTs?
Oct 30, 2005I am doing a little research on Google about this topic and I ran intothis thread:http://groups.google.com/group/micr...dc13d4ee6758966I read SQL Server MVP Louis Davidson's post saying:"Actually they are more likely to drop the concept of bound defaults.Constraints are the standard way to do this, and really should be the wayyou create defaults anyhow."Even I read in the Microsoft SQL Server Introduction (SQL 7 bookpage 244, however we're using SQL Server 2000):"Constraints define rules regarding the values allowed in columns and arethe standard mechanism for enforcing integrity, preferred over triggers,rules, and defaults. They are also used by the query optimizer to improveperformance in selectivity estimation, cost calculations, and queryrewriting."Why constraint defaults are better? The second sentence about constraintshaving better optimization, I am guessing they don't mean this aboutDefault Constraints, rather the other type of constraints?Because I don't see how a Default Constraint have anything to do withperformance? Isn't default only to do with new records being created?At work we are setting all tables' columns to have constraint defaultsof 0 or ' ' (space character) in order not to have any column with theNULL value. Therefore we have dozens of files containing statements like:alter table TABLE1 add constraint TABLE1_ID_DFDEFAULT(' ') FOR IDgoalter table TABLE1 add constraint TABLE1_QUANTITY_DFDEFAULT(0) FOR QUANTITYgoFirst I was thinking to create 3 SQL Defaults called:DefaultZeroDefaultSpaceDefaultDateand then bind these defaults to all the columns of all tables excludingprimary keys. After creating the tables I would enumerate throughall the columns and bind one of these three Defaults based on theirdatatype:number = DefaultZerotext type = DefaultSpacedate type = DefaultDateAnd then unbind the ones that we specifically need to specify otherdefault values.So my question is should I do this by using sp_binddefault or stickwith using Default Constraints inside a table/columns loop code?Thank you
View 10 Replies View RelatedChanging SSIS Property Defaults
Sep 5, 2006To make certain SSIS features work there are many properties that need to be set over and over for most containers in the package. For example with CheckpointRestart, you need to set (in most cases) all of the tasks' FailPackageOnFailure to True. If you miss one, the package may not restart properly and you might never know. There are other situations where as a development team we want certain properties to be usually set the same but differently from the SSIS default.
Is there a way to control the defaults that the SSIS IDE uses?
I remember back in classic VB that if you wanted to change the defaults of a bare form you could create a template form adjusted the way you like and put it in a templates folder. Then new forms added to a project would be based on the template form.

Merge Replication: Does It Support UDTs && Defaults
Feb 27, 2003Hi Everyone,
Can anyone help me with this little problem that im stuck with.
As part of the initial snapshot using merge replication, i am creating the initial schema on the subscriber database however it seems as though it does not like UDDTs or defaults and hence does not create them on the subscribers.
Its looking likely that I may have to create a script which executes on the subscriber which creates the initial schema then use merge replication to transfer data.
Does Merge Replication support UDTs/Defaults? If so how does it work?
Ive search many places though have come up with nothing.
Please help. = (

Setting Defaults On A Multi-valued Parameter
Jan 27, 2006I want to set defaults for my multi-valued report parameter MONTH so that when the report starts, it automatically selects all the months prior to the current month (effectively creates a YTD report). However, using RS2005, I can't seem to figure out how to do this. I can create an IIF expression in 12 different value entries in the report parameters that returns the month based on the system date, but the first time I pass blanks, null or anything except a valid parameter, it clears the entire parameter list when the report displays.
Does anyone have any suggestions for auto-populating multiple values in a parameter at runtime where one or more of the parameter values may be empty? Checking "Allow Null" or "Allow Blank" doesn't fix this problem.
I tried to pass all the values in a single value entry on the report parameters page, but can't find the syntax that will allow this. I'm not sure if it will let you do that anyway...

View 3 Replies View RelatedParameter Defaults Not Updated When Deploying From BIDS
Oct 10, 2007Hi,
Ever since working with RS I had noticed that deploying reports felt inconsistent and didn't always seem to work, requiring sometimes for me to delete and re-deploy the reports before seeing changes applied. This has the knock on effect of generating new report ID's (GUID's) for the reports and any data in the ExecutionLog table for your reports becomes useless inhibiting effective usage reporting.
I never quite put my finger on exactly what the issue was until recently discovered that "by design" report paramerter defaults are not updated when deploying reports from BIDS. This is because MS envisaged that DBA's or Report Adminstrators would be responsible for changing parameter defaults and prompts once the reports are deployed.

Lookup / Merge Join / Script - Howto Look Up Values By Comparing To A Range Of Values?
Jun 4, 2007Hello all,
I am trying to think my way through a solution which I believe others have probably come across... I am trying to implement a matching routine wherein I need to match an address against a high value and a low value (or, for that matter an input date vs. a start and end date) to return the desired row ... i.e. if I were to use a straight vb program I would just use the following lookup:
"SELECT DISTINCT fire_id, police_ID, fire_opt_in_out, police_opt_in_out FROM ipt_tbl " & _
" WHERE zip_code = @zip_code AND addr_prim_lo <= @street_number AND addr_prim_hi >= @street_number " & _
" AND addr_prim_oe = @addr_prim_oe AND street_pre = @street_pre AND street_name = @street_name " & _
" AND street_suff = @street_suff AND street_post = @street_post " & _
" AND (expiry_date = '' OR expiry_date = '00000000' OR expiry_date > @expiry_date)" & _
" GROUP BY fire_ID, police_ID, fire_opt_in_out, police_opt_in_out"
My question, then, is how would you perform this type of query using a lookup / merge join or script? I have not found a way to implement a way to set the input columns? I can set the straight matches without a problem, i.e. lookup zip code = input zip code, but can't think of the correct way to set comparisons, i.e. lookup value 1 <= input value AND lookup value 2 >= input value
Any suggestions?
thanks for your time...
