I have three types of specific reports that i have to create with the input parameters (range) either
1: By date (rdl 1)
2.By Month (rdl 2)
3.By Year (rdl 3)
Is it possible ( or how do I ) to create just one report template ( one rdl) with the three sets of parameters ( hiding/invisible which ever two sets base on user selection) and the output of the report will display the desired type( either by year, month or date).
I ask this because its possible to create a drill down report from year down to date etc in report designer (vs 2005). Not sure if I can create one instead of three rdls and with the 'logic' built within that template.
I need to pass the out put from a stored procedure as an input parameter to another stored procedure. I created a data set for each stored procedure. Fron the second data set parameter tab, I added a parameter to refer to the field from the first data set.
I get the error Fiels can not be used in query parameter expressions.
I tried two simple queries instead of stored procedures with first query feeding the second query. I get the same error. Is there any other other way to accomplish this?
Hi, I have a need to display on screen AND email a pdf report to email addresses specified at run time, executing the report with a parameter specified by the user. I have looked into data driven subscriptions, but it seems this is based on scheduling. Unfortunately for the majority of the project I will only have access to SQL 2005 Standard Edition (Production system is Enterprise), so I cannot investigate thoroughly.
So, is this possible using data driven subscriptions? Scenario is:
1. User enters parameter used for query, as well as email addresses. 2. Report is generated and displayed on screen. 3. Report is emailed to addresses specified by user.
Is there a way to subscribe SSRS report using dynamic parameters for email and trigger the report from autosys job so that report should generate the exact time the job is triggered.Let me describe, my SSRS report should be triggered on success of one autosys job. i need to send email parameter and time of report schedule from this autosys job.
Is it possible to dynamically refresh the report model of the report builder?
could it even be using code with any of the interfaces?
When we add a table or add a column to the table in database , will the report model get refreshed automatically or do we need to do it externally. If so, can we use any of the objects and write a custom code in VB.
I have a report that grows horizontally as it contains a matrix. In the header section of the report, I have items such as Title and time stamp in text boxes. How can I make these items align in the center if the report grows horizontally, it looks kinda odd with report title not being in the center? Any input will be appreciated.
We are generating excel report using report viewer at run time but if excel report having more then 65000 record generating error Microsoft. Reporting Services.OnDemandReportRendering.ReportRenderingException: Excel Rendering Extension: Number of rows exceed.
I was wondering if there was any way to add a value field to a report, with the time it took for the report to Process.
It would probably be a text field with an Expression, but don't know how that would go.
I know that in Expression there is a value for ExecutionTime (when report began to run), but nothing about when it ends.Can this be done? and if yes, how?
I am getting timeout or connection closed error on report server when i try to create snapshot for a large report on my development machine.Snapshot are getting created for small reports.
I have done following changes to rsreportserver.config <Add Key="SQLCommandTimeoutSeconds" Value="1000000"/>
<Add Key="DatabaseQueryTimeout" Value="1000000"/>
and
IIS time out to some large value.
But everytime it shows timeout or connection closed forcibly.
If I have some mdx I'm using in reporting services like this:
select { [TimeByMinute].[All TimeByMinute].[2005].[May].[1] : [TimeByMinute].[All TimeByMinute].[2005].[May].[6] } on columns, {A_list_of_measures } on rows from ACD_Calls
The column names are unique to the day of month- which means when I use a table to display this in reporting services, the field names change dynamically when the date parameters change which means the table stops working.
I'll post this in reporting services too but I thought maybe I could alias the column names in mdx shielding the reporting services table from changes in dates.
What do you think? Would a matrix be more flexible in this case?
The following are the output lines from my code which is constructing some T-SQL queries on the fly. The query highlighted in yellow is the problem query. The code upto the problem query is working correctly and I am able to see the output tables in the Query Analyzer
STEP 1 : Create 3 Tables In Dynamic T-SQL : Showing 3 Strings from Exec statement
Create Table ##Test_word28July2007185548990201 ( t float, e float, s float, word varchar(80) ) Create Table ##OUT_Test_word28July2007185548990201 ( t float, e float, s float, word varchar(80), KeywordID int, rank float ) Create Table ##STVR_FLOAT_Test_word28July2007185548990201 ( var_val float)
Step 2: Retrieving A Value Into Another Global Table (table has only 1 row and 1 column) Insert Into ##STVR_FLOAT_Test_word28July2007185548990201 ( var_val ) Select IsNull( t , 0 ) from ##Test_word28July2007185548990201 (1 row(s) affected)
Step 3: I need the value (var_val) in ##STVR_FLOAT_Test_word28July2007185548990201 Update ##Out_Test_word28July2007194827580759 Set t = Select var_val from ##STVR_FLOAT_Test_word28July2007194827580759 where t > Select var_val from ##STVR_FLOAT_Test_word28July2007194827580759 Server: Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 1 Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'Select'. Server: Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 1 Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'Select'. (1 row(s) affected)
Problem Definition
Part 1
The update query is trying to retrieve a value in a dynamically constructed table. ##STVR_FLOAT_Test_word28July2007185548990201 (1 column var_val , 1 row)
Update <Table_Name> set t = @var_val where t > @var_val The update query is simple, except I need to "SELECT" @var_val from the dynamic table
The @var_val is a float value.
I have outputted the contents of the table that is holding the @temp_val variable It has the correct value and the table has only 1 row and 1 column.
WHAT IS THE SYNTAX OF A QUERY TO SELECT A SINGLE VALUE FROM A TEMP TABLE WITH ONLY 1 ROW OR COLUMN AND USE THE SELECTED VALUE AS A VARIABLE IN AN UPDATE STATEMENT
I have a very basic report, pretty much just spits out the results from a storage proceedure. When I just run the stored proceed it takes about 36 seconds to run, and returns 532K records. When i run the report it takes a little over three minutes. The SQL Reporting server is on a seperate box, but its database resides on the same system as the database in which i am reporting up against. Any thoughts on what I could do to improve speeds on the reporting side I would appreciate it. Running SQL 2005 SP2, the report just takes in a date for a parameter and spits out financial holdings for that particular day.
I'm having problems successfully executing bcp_init through a function pointer retrieved at run time from sqlncli.dll.
The call works when the library is statically linked.
Can someone please point out the problem? The commented out code in green executes successfully when the library is statically linked. Code marked in red fails.
SQLGetDiagRecW does not provide any useful information.
I am struggling figuring out the token from a CMDEXEC job (as opposed to TSQL Job). It is not an option to execute the command by enabling the executing CMDs via TSQL, which is why I am using the agent. I have seen the Microsoft Site on tokens but all examples seem to be oriented to TSQL Job Type.
I am trying to delete a particular trace file and at same time keeping the SQL Directory dynamic.Taking it a step further is adding in "deleting if file exist".
I am in between of creating a dynamic SSSIS package which will run for multiple zones having different source connection.My source is in Oracle.I am having 3 DFT with the 3 different source tables.I want to create a package with above DFT dynamically so that my single package can run for the entire zone with dynamically source connection change.I have created a Master table which stores the zone source connection string and zone name. I have 2 different connection.so if in future any new zones come so only newly zone details need to be add in master table without opening the package.
When I try to preview the report, I get the following error
An unexpected error occured while compling expressions. Native complier return value: '[BC32017] Comma, ')', or a valid expression continuation expected.'.
I have also tried it without the parameter,
="Data Source=MYSQLSERVER;Initial Catalog=ADV_1"
with the same result. When I use the exact same static DSN it works fine. Anyone have any idea what I might try to get it to work next?
Hi, I'm trying to create a report with dynamic columns. I mean that the user is able to select if he wants to see a double drill report with client group and product group, or agents with clients, or everything else he needs. I tried to insert some variables in the query that extracts data from report, and using that variables like parameters, but Reporting Services always get the parameter default value and not the correct value i give him. How can I solve my problem? There is another way to obtain dynamic reports?
i have a dataset which returns me a dynamic set of data ie. number of columns can be different....say 14 columns for some dates...and just 12 for some other...(pivot table is being used in the backend)...how can i present this in the table...also my column names are best suited to be the column headers in the table.....is it possible to create a table at runtime...??
I am currently working with SQL 2005 Reporting Services and MS Visual studio 2005.
In my SQL server I have data about organizations, so that each organization's data is stored in an individual database. In addition, the number of organizations/databases is variable. I know the number of organizations and the name of each one (that it agrees with the name of its database) because there is a database (organizationsDB) with a table (organizationsTB) containing the list of the organizations.
So, It would be possible to create a report containing a summary of each organization? .... for example a table in which each row contains data of each organization.
For example: At the beginning I have 3 columns in the report, build by VS. After couple weeks, the same report needs to have more columns. And i don't want to use the VS to modify the layout manually, instead, when adding new columns, I can call a function to modify the rdl file add attributes into the xml file automatically. But after that which way I can go to publish the modified report into the report server, then when user clicks on that report again, there will be more columns show up.
is it possible to have a kind of dynamic subreport in a main report.
Let me illustrate this with an example:
Next to my table i would like to have a window (subreport) that changes content whenever i click on a different value inside my table. In the subreport i would like to display detail information on specific cells in my table.
I m working in Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services Designer Version 9.00.1399.00 for creating reports .
Now, I m facing a problem to view a run time dialog box at time of my report. Means , In my report procedure , i have fired 2 delete queries after firing of these queries i wanna show a message box with Message "Some Records are Deleted". and one Ok Button !!
and after showing this dialog box i wanna view my report output !!
The procedure of my report is : ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- create procedure MyTemp as
-- Query1 delete from myTempTable1 where Id = 5
-- Query2 delete from myTempTable2 where Id = 10
-- After exectuing above two queries Query1 and Query2. -- here i want to view amessage dialog box with message "Some Records are Deleted"
select Id, name from myTempTable1,myTempTable2 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
So, how can i do this !! I will change in my proceudre or report !! Please suggest me about solution of this problem .
If u dont have any solution regaring this then please suggest me where i will get the solution of this problem .
But If I change default parameter with everyone I need it always run correctly! The real problem is in execution mode, it not takes the parameter i give it danamically. I can see only the default columns I set by default. The thing I need to kwnow is: is this method correct or this problem can be solved in any other manner?
I've got this working -- I allow users to have 2 groups, and choose what they want to group by. I'd like to add one extra bit of functionality -- for the inner grouping, I would like my users to have the option "None" -- i.e. don't have an inner group.
I've tried setting the group expression of the second (inner) group to "" when the user chooses the "None" option but the report errors out. Any suggestions as to how to dynamically get rid of the inner group?
I have a requirement to add the ability to filter a report by partial last name, at the report level (i.e. not at the database server). In case someone else needs to work out how to do this, here is what I did.
Add a Parameter to the report. In my case it is named LastName, is non-queried, allows Null or Blank, and has a default of null. Add a filter to the dataset that contains the field to be searched. Set its Expression to: =IIF(Parameters!LastName.Value = System.DBNull.Value OR Parameters!LastName.Value = "", Fields!LastName.Value, Nothing) , its operator to "=" and its value to =IIF(Parameters!LastName.Value = Nothing OR Parameters!LastName.Value = "", Nothing, Parameters!LastName.Value & "*")
Is it possible to create a report with dynamic parameters or parameters dependant on other ones? I have the following scenario -
Parameter 1 - 'Select an Application' - List of applications that are available
Parameter 2 - 'Select a module' - This is a list of modules that needs to depend on Parameter 1. As a user selects different applications, the appropriate module list will be loaded.
So far so good. I want to send this report by email everyday, so I need to set these parameters as a default value. This is where I run into problems.
When I add any of these parameters I get the following error "The restrictions by the CONSTRAINED flag in the STRTOSET function were violated". This problem occur when I choose NON-queried under Report->Report Parameters, and set a default value for THISYEAR under DEFAULT VALUES
