I've created a data flow where I have linked to an OLE DB Source then created a Flat File Destination. My file is now on my c: drive. I'd like to use that data to create a report, then print to a PDF. How would I do that?
Currently I was doing this in Access, but I am moving my processes to SSIS.
Is there a way to save print settings with the report so that settings such as the size of paper (A4, legal...) and layout (landscape, portrait) do not have to be specified by user everytime she wishes to print the report?
Hi

Any suggestions plz help
Thanks

We are using SQL 2005 and Reporting Services 2005. When we print reports they take so long to print that it is faster to export to PDF and then open and print the PDF. The cause appears to be the print job file size. In our old reporting tool one report had a file size of 1.22MB. The reporting services version of the same report is 2.82 GB. This takes 20 minutes for the printer to spool and process. Our users are understandably upset that a highly touted new technology requires a work around to print reports efficiently.
Is this file size normal? What can we do to make printing from SSRS feasible?
Any help would be greatly appreaciated.
hi,
I am using vb.net 2005 and sql server 2005 express edition.
I have used reports (*.rdlc) to print invoice. The invoice format is as follows:
'**********************************************************************************
Company Name
Party Name Invoice No.
Date
Item No. Description Qty Rate Amount
1
2
3
Taxes and Duties applicable
Amount In Words
For Company Name
'**********************************************************************************
All the data is placed in body section of report using different DataTable dataregions.
This is done as Taxes and Duties have multiple Rows and columns
but the location of printing of Taxes & duties Table on paper always changes depending on the no. of items in the invoice
this does not match with the pre printed stationery used for invoice printing.
How do i print the taxes & duties and all details below the ItemDetails Table always at the same location independent of
the no. of items in the invoice?
Hello,
When print reports in Reporting Services 2005, the default paper is "A4", but our reports have letter size, or even "A3" or "legal". Could we set a default paper for printing for each report?
thanks,

Hi....We are generating reports in Excel and PDF and the reports are accessed from a web app interface..
the problem is that when the users print a report generated in Excel from the web app it prints in a veritcal split on paper...This is because the width exceeds the paper width....We do not want to redesign reports ...Is there any method to squeeze Excel data into the availiable page width ( This happens automatically in PDF so issues with it).....Can it be done in code ?
Hello,
SRS 2005 provides functionality for loading and rendering reports on fly using LoadReportDefinition and Render methods defined in ReportExecutionService webservice.
I was wondering if the same/similar behaviour can be accomplished in Reporting Services 2000.

Hello guys/girls:
I am new at reporting services, and would like to know I it is possible to print a reporting service report via code. I have done this with Crystal reports and would like to do it here. I even considered creating a ReportViewer object and setup the report, but not actually bind it to a control on a form. They will not see this report and I really dont want to put it in a report viewer. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,

Dear ppl,
I have designed a report in Visual Studio 2005. The report have a couple of data regions (table and list) + some free text boxes.. The problem is when i print or export the report to pdf etc, it prints/exports a blank page after every page. e.g. if a report is of 2 pages, it will be printed/exported as Page 1 + Blank Page + Page 2 + Blank Page...
Can any one please tell me what am i missing here?
Awaiting,

I am very new to RS and I have a scenario that I am not sure how to enact in the application I am building.
I have a report that generates remittances for an EFT payment file. The Remittances in this file are either printed or emailed to the company they are form. The output type and recipients email address are stored in the Db.
I would like the user to be able to click my Generate Remittance button, and instead of the report being rendered on screen, I would like it to automatically send all remittances marked for printing to the printer, and all marked email to be sent to the email address that is in the Db for that report.
I am thinking that my application will need to run the report twice, the first time reporting on only the ones needing printing (but then how do I automatically send the report to the users default printer without the report being rendered on screen), and then a second time reporting on the emailed ones and then automatically emailing them off to the individual recipients.
If anyone can shed some light on what I am needing to do, or maybe even suggest a better way to go about it, it would be much appreciated.
Cheers

I have a report that I pass parameters of a clientID. I run the report and export it to a .pdf file. I would like to be able to do this for multiple clients without manually having to enter the ID each time and exporting it.
I have thought about creating a report that calls this report so that I can pass in the clientID one at a time. The problem is trying to export each one.
Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance!
I believe this is an extension of the problem described here:
http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=115351
The service pack for Visual Studio has fixed the problem when I print my report from VS, however when I deploy and print my reports from the SSRS website they are still incorrect.
My SSRS server is running SQL 2005 with service pack 2 installed and the 9.00.3152 9333097 Cumulative hotfix package (build 3152) for SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2 also applied.
I find it hard to believe the problem was fixed in the developer tool but NOT in the client tool?
How can I develop reports when the output from the developer tool is different to the output from the client tool?
For example I specify a box to be 5cm wide, and when printed from visual studio it is 5cm wide, but when printed from the SSRS website it is not 5cm wide!
Thanks.
Hi,
I had developed my reports using SQL 2005 reporting service. While crerating the report i set the page size to 8.27in Width x 11.69in Height.
I am calling this report in my aspx pages using report viewer.
But the problem is I can't able to set the size of the page to A4 size. When i set the size of the page to A4 while printing the page is divided into two pages.
Is there any way to override the print option in reportviewer where we can set the page size to A4 ?
Thanks and Regards,

Hello all,
When I print the reports ( or export to PDF) in Report Manager, my every alternate page is blank? If the report is just one page report, I get second page as blank when I print or export. The report prints in Landscape format( which should be fine given 8.5 inch height and 11 inch width).
I have played with the interactive Height and other height parameters but with no luck.
My current settings in the rdl file is:
<BottomMargin>0.5in</BottomMargin>
<RightMargin>0.5in</RightMargin>
<PageWidth>11in</PageWidth>
...
<Width>11in</Width>
<InteractiveHeight>1.5in</InteractiveHeight>
<Language>en-US</Language>
<TopMargin>0.5in</TopMargin>
<PageHeight>8.5in</PageHeight>
I would highly appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks

Hello,
I have a long running report (using a couple of sub-reports) that generates errors when trying to render the report during replication of the source data.
Specifically, I have a detailed product report displaying detailed sales information for a particular product and date. I then wrapped this report in a parent report so the business users can see multiple products for multiple days (i.e. all sales by department). The reports use a replicated database for their source (to off-load the traffic from the production POS database). If the users try and generate the report during the window when the database is being replicated, some of the €œsub-reports€? fail. If the users simply re-run the report, all of the data is there. Therefore, I know it€™s not a problem with the report, but rather with the data.
Since the report takes so long to render, simply re-running the report is not a very good solution. Another problem I have is that reporting services returns the generic €œError: sub-report could not be generated€? error, which causes the users to think there is something wrong with the report.
Any ideas on how to fix this problem? Or notify the users when the data is being updated?
Thoughts?
Thanks!
David.
Hi, I'm a first time user at reporting services and in dire need of some help, I'm having a real hard time finding the information I need.
I have made two reports in Business Intelligence Development Studio that access a sql database and I can deploy them and see them at http://localhost/reports etc.
What I wan't to do is be able to "trigger" the reports to be built from a schedule (e.g. every 8 hour on weekdays, every 12 hours on weekends but should be able to be changed) and after built to be saved to a html file.
I also need to set the sql query for the dataset before generating the report (select * from table where DateTimeType between This and That).
Anyway, I'm completely lost on how to achive this and would greatly appreciate and tips or pointers to where the information can be found.
Kindest Regards

I must confess it has been a long time since I have done any SSRS reporting. I have the following SQL Statement (I will change it to a stored Procedure with parameters once I get the design done):
SELECT
rc.wo_id,
rc.process_id,
rc.item_id,
rc.lot_no AS full_lot_no,
rc.oper_id, rc.seq_no,
CAST(la.attr_value AS DECIMAL(12, 2)) AS weight,
[Code] ....
This gives me the data I want which looks like this:
Rework ID             Ingot          Oper ID        Piece        Rework

                           xxxxxx234          5                    B82            Route 4
The grouping is on the Rework ID.  Any of the pieces can be put on any rework route. As you can see, there are 4 routes, but 5 pieces.  What I need is for each rework ID to be printed on its own paper even if there is only 1 record for the route. So I would expect 4 pieces of paper, 3 with 1 record, the 4th with two pieces. Is there a setting in the Tablix or report that I can set, or is there an expression I can use?

Hello Everybody,
I am presently working on a project which handles much larger amount of data. The application demands extensive reporting from the SharePoint data. I'd like to know how I can generate reports from the SharePoint lists using Reporting Services.
Planning to install in SQL Server Integrated mode
Thank you,

So I have been asked by our sustainability person to create report from our printing data that actually shows the number of pieces of paper used. This is easy enough for single-sided printing, but when printing in duplex the software does not take into account that 3 printing pages actually equates to 2 pieces of paper. I know this sounds simple, but say I have a print job record that looks like this:
Submitted printed total_pages duplex
8/10/2015 8/10/2015 42 1Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
This is a print jobs that if done correctly is actually 21 pages( duplex printing). If the job is say total_pages =5 I cant just divide by 2 because its actually using 3 pieces of paper ( yes they are wanting this data don't ask why). How can I adjust some sql to accurately depict 5 pages, front and back, as 3 pieces of paper?
I have deployed a report that is configured for landscape printing. It does print in landscape, however, only the first seven columns appear on the first page and the other five columns appear on the next page. Is there a method, like in print preview setup in MS Excel, where we can scale down the print (like to 80%) so all columns appear on each page?
Thanks!
Hello SQL Server Experts, Data Analysts, and Report Writers et al:
re: Reporting Options with SQL Server
I wanted to propose an offshoot to the pryor thread:
Would anyone take a stab at comparing Access Reports, Crystal Reports,
Cognos or other options to all the Reporting Services and its components offered as part ofSQL Server, especially as to extracting data from SQL Server into a report format?
I guess this is a far as capabilites, ease of use, limitations, and especially formatting
or presentation of the end report product?
Thank you to all, and I hope this is a beneficial discussion to others.

I have an already published application running several MS SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services report.
I need a way to find from either the reporting services log or the application server (IIS) logs or windows log
to know the frequency of each report being used.
Based on this info, the business needs to know which reports are being used and to what extend?
How can I acheive this?
I have already got the IIS logs and it did not give the required info.
I have looked into the Reporting Services logs but it does not provide the info either.
Any help is appreciated

Hi Friends,
Could I migrate the reports which are developed on SQL 2000 to SQL 2005. If Yes then How ...
Could anyone explain me. How it works.

My issue is with converting multi-value parameters:
In Crystal Reports, you can set a parameter to accept multiple vales (Discrete, Range or Discrete and Range).
As an example:
I have a database table with a column called ID.
I can create a parameter called param_id and set the options of the parameter to "Allow multiple range values".
With this setup, I can limit the result set of the report by comparing the param_id parameter to the ID column in the database. Because param_id is a multi-value range parameter, I can pass it the following data:
1 - 50
60 - 80
150 - 127
This will only return results within those ranges.
Does anyone know if SSRS provides this kind of functionality?
Thanks,
Patrick Conway
