I have installed and am using Reporting Services.
I can create RDL files using Visual Studio.NET, but like to offload this task to a minion who does not have VS.NET.
Is there a stripped down something-or-other to make reports that and end user or business analyst could use and then upload the reports?
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 am trying to configure the reporting for TFS using SQL Server. But I get following error when viewing any report:

When I click on GetProcessingStatus and invoke it (with last field set as TRUE) I get following error:
How to resolve this issue and be able to see the reports.
Can anyone tell me if MS Reporting Services can import/read a Crystal Reports file as it can an Access report file?
I've seen a few posts out on other boards that there are some companies charging fees for converting Crystal Reports over to MS Reporting Services.
Is there any easier way? Are there any tools out there that can do it?
Perhaps Microsoft should produce such a tool for converting...
Thanks in advance for any help!!

View 7 Replies View RelatedI currently have a report on our Reporting Services 2005 server that takes a CompanyID as its only parameter. Also, in our database, we have a list of contacts that are linked to the CompanyID that is used in the report. What I would like to do is email a pdf or each company's report to every contact for that company in our database daily. However I am stuck on how to do that. My project is using C#, but if there is a way to do this directly through Reporting Services I could do that as well. If anyone could help me out I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

Hi all,
Currently I have a project that require me to use reporting services (Reports) together with ASP.net web application.
However, I have the following problem.
I have an asp.net web application. From there, I have a textbox whereby user can type a specific date. The specific date should then be incorporate with the sql reporting services. The report that is being generated will contain data that is on the specific date.
How can I do that?
I try to search through the internet but to no result. Can anyone help out?
Thank you so much.
We will making a change to our Reporting Services deployment next month. We will be moving from our SQL 2000 server to a new SQL 2005 server. In addition, we will moving from a Local Catalog Deployment to a Remote Catalog Deployment. My question is this: Is there a way I can prevent my team from having to manually redeploy our reports in the new system? They have not been diligent about saving the Visual Studio solution or project files, so they will have to pull the most up-to-date RDL's off the server and deploy them on the new server one by one.
I suppose I can install SQL 2000 on the new server first, then move the Reporting Services databases to the new server, then upgrade the server to 2005, but installing 2000 and upgrading to 2005 does not sound like a best practice. I would prefer a clean install of 2005. Does anyone know if I can move the deployed reports from one server to another?

We have created and scheduled some test reports via Idera performance tool but we are unable to delete the reports. These are not custom reports and reports created with Schedule Email option in Idera. Unfortunately, I dera does not have any option to delete these reports and support is asking me if I tried this by deleting from SQL Server Reporting Services.I looked at the Reporting services but can't find any place to delete these reports. This link does not provide any support because I don't have these (Or Report Manager)----> Configuration Manager console, navigate to System Center Configuration Manager / Site Database / Computer Management / Reporting / Reporting Services.
URL....All I have is "Reporting Services Configuration Manager" under "Configuration Tools". How can I delete these reports from SQL Server Reporting services ?. Can I delete them from some tables in Reports databases ?. If so, what are the tables ?. I delete the jobs from SQL Server but the jobs are automatically created the next day emailing the reports again..
I have a requirement to create dynamic reports for my client.
once i create these reports then the user will choose columns of there choice.
so the columns may belong to multiple tables.
Now the report should get generated with the layout etc. is it possible.
since our project is totally on the webserver(webbased.)
please if you can provide me with any links with dynamic report creation wizards.
and also we only use Stored procedures via database.
which is best is writing the entire queries right behind the layouit or calling the entire logic via Stored procedure. i am a bit confused. this is my first project working on reports itself.
Thank you all for the helpful information.
Is there a way to publish the MDW (Data Collection) reports (Disk Usage history, Query Statistic history, and Server Activity history ) on SSRS server?!
It is not logical for all who wants to view the mentioned reports to open the SSMS !
I've already check [URL] .... there, the writer is suggesting to recreate the reports from scratch on SSRS, that if I could figure their queries, which I don't think the only way that we have!
Is there a good way in TSQL to:
1. List all SSRS reports containing sub-reports
2. List the SSRS sub reports?

Hi everyone, I'm very new to SQL and SQL Reporting Services.
However I've been given a task.
How do I save multiple reporting services reports onto a predetermined location on a users local pc? Are there tools/applications that can be used to push files onto the users local pc?
The application uses .NET but they've created reports using SQL Reporting Services. The user will select which report they want (out of 2). My task is to figure out how can we save those reports that they have selected onto their pc?
Thanks in advance
I have generated an invoice report is SSRS. It works correctly via Report Builder and the viewer. However if I then export the report to PDF, it throws the formatting of the report off.
As I have mentioned, it is an invoice report. If I print 1 invoice, and export it, everything exports correctly and all formatting is retained. However if i print off and export multiple invoices (range of Invoice 1 to 4), the 1st invoice is exported correctly, but all subsequent ones are not. In so far that where 1 invoice should be printed on 2 pages of A4 paper, it is spread over 7 pages.
The header is one page, then 1 row is on the second page, then a blank page, then another set of data on another page etc. Is it a problem with the page/report sizing/margins?
Hi All,

Hi ,
How can I hide the URL information when I open a report, some with parameters and some do not have
parameters. Is there anyway or properties in RS that I can set to have it hide all the important information,
like datasource, credentials, parameters, and display the report like a aspx page instead?
Or does this need to have special programming to make this happen? and if so, what do I need to do?
thanks very much
Is there a way to find all SSRS scheduled reports details such as (Report Name, schedule time, mail IDs configured, etc.)?
We have many SCCM reports on SRS, and manual work will take very long time..
In my report i have more than 10 sub reports each should be displayed when we click on some label but my requirement is to expand all the sub reports at a time or collapse the sub reports.URL.....problem here is it is a genius solution working beautifully in my local machine but in the client server if i click on the Expand/Collapse radio button it is asking for the parameters again.

Hi,
I am converting a crystal report cross-tab, in to a reporting services matrix. The cross-tab uses a GridRowColumnValue function to hide/show the data & total fields.
Is there an equivalent in reporting service or a workaround method for this?

HI,
We currently have a report generated weekly running script which creates an excel file and pivot tables. Using pivot tables we can drag and drop the various required fields and the report changes instantly. But i was told there is a limitation of size while using pivot tables.
Can this report be easily created with almost all the flexibility in reporting services, if so could you please guide me with some sample report or tutorials.
currently there is a some store procedures thats run every week using a DTS manually, is there a way of automating this.
Many thanks in advance.

Recently we upgraded to SSRS-2008 R2 from SSRS-2008 (enterprise edition) and noticed that all the underlines for hyper-links in all reports are missing. Also the font color has reset back to default color (had set to blue to indicate a hyperlink).
Redeployed the same report from VS-2008 SP1 but no luck. Although the formatting (color + underline) looks ok in the preview mode in VS.if there's any workarounds as many end users are getting confued with this change.
