MDX Queries And Default Parameters
Apr 4, 2008
Hi all,
I have a MDX query that has been put together from a Analysis Services Cube in Reporting Services, as below:
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[MM Document Count], [Measures].[FI Document Total], [Measures].[MM Document Total], [Measures].[FI Document Count] } ON COLUMNS, NON EMPTY { ([Lookup Company Code].[Company Code].[Company Code].ALLMEMBERS * [Lookup Financial Period].[Financial Year].[Financial Year].ALLMEMBERS * [Lookup Financial Period].[Financial Period].[Financial Period].ALLMEMBERS ) } DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION, MEMBER_UNIQUE_NAME ON ROWS FROM ( SELECT ( STRTOSET(@LookupCompanyCodeCompanyCode, CONSTRAINED) ) ON COLUMNS FROM [SAP Document Analysis Doc Totals MM FI]) CELL PROPERTIES VALUE, BACK_COLOR, FORE_COLOR, FORMATTED_VALUE, FORMAT_STRING, FONT_NAME, FONT_SIZE, FONT_FLAGSIt has a parameters @LookupCompanyCodeCompanyCode, which creates the following dataset query:
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterCaption] AS '[Lookup Company Code].[Company Code].CURRENTMEMBER.MEMBER_CAPTION' MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterValue] AS '[Lookup Company Code].[Company Code].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME' MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterLevel] AS '[Lookup Company Code].[Company Code].CURRENTMEMBER.LEVEL.ORDINAL' SELECT {[Measures].[ParameterCaption], [Measures].[ParameterValue], [Measures].[ParameterLevel]} ON COLUMNS , [Lookup Company Code].[Company Code].ALLMEMBERS ON ROWS FROM [SAP Document Analysis Doc Totals MM FI]
Within the Report Parameters it is set with as being a Multi value parameter and default value for return all records: [Lookup Company Code].[Company Code].[All]
This work fine when previewing report & when I build.
Problem is when I drop a report viewer control in VWD 2005 and attach this report, it does not run with the default values when the page loads.
Does anyone have a idea what I might be doing wrong? or/and how would i pass a value from a listbox extbox to the parameter and then run the report?
Thanks in advance
Kevin

Hi,
I'm just looking into installing a second instance of SQL 2005 with SP2 on a W2K3 R2 machine that already contains a default instance, if i do so is the order of installation
1) Install named instance
2) Apply SP2 to the newly installed named instance
If i do this, will either of these require a system reboot ?
The default instance should remain operational if no reboot required as the service pack is for a specific instance in this case ?
Thanks in advance

Hey everyone,
I have a question about using Parameters in queries. I created a list of parameters that the user can select from. For example one is MS07%. The other parameter is a list of locations that is built from a query. These parameters are then being used in a query to build a dataset. When i try to preview the report I select parameters the I know work because I tested the query with them, I get an error that says "Must declate the scalar variable "@Param1". I'm not really sure what that means. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
Keith

I know I can find out what parameters does a stored procedure have via either sp_help or INFORMATION_SCHEMA.PARAMETERS, I can get the types, the lengths or precisions ... what I do not seem to be able to get is which of those parameters are required and which ones have a default value. I mean:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.Foo (
@Required Int,
@Optional Int = 0
) AS ...
Is there any way to get this information (preferably together with the default value) short of parsing the output of sp_helptext?
Thanks, Jenda

I have a requirement like I need to have default values for all my parameters in my report. But Report should not run until i click the view report button.Currently It will load the data automatically on initial load when all the parameters are provided. Is that possible to restrict load of report data?

Hi there,
In my report, I have set the default parameters such that it is supposed to automatically render when the page loads. I have set the defaults in Report / Report Parameters and it even works in the preview pane, however, when I deploy the report, the defaults are not set.
This report has subreports, and I've tried setting their defaults. Has anyone come across this?
Thanks, LBD

I have an sql query that has specific criteria (like state='PA' orstate = 'NJ'...) and would like to be able to have the user specifythe criteria dynamically either through the web or from MSAccess oranother tool.The query also does a GROUP BY the state and other variables that arepart of the criteria.I know how to get MSAccess and asp pages to do the sorting andselecting against an SQL tbl or view, but when access queries the sameinfo as the original sql view, the process takes much longer than whenthe sql view does all of the sorting, selecting and grouping..The table we are currently using is 5 million records and will begrowing to 250 million records shortly, so speed is of the essence.The sql views and MSAccess are both running from the same server sothere is no issue at this point of a network impacting the MSAccessquery.Any suggestions...

I want to create a web page where a user can select from 1-100 fields to include in output, and then query a table to only return the fields the user has selected.
I do not want to construct a dynamic SQL SELECT statement. I would rather use a stored procedure, but am not certain how to only return the fields that the user selected.

When I call a proc with one input parameter and two output parameters, (all the three parameters having defaults in the proc), I was expecting to see these values defaulted to in the proc. But apparently, this not the case. Could someone tell me what am I doing wrong here? Appreciate your time.
USE Pubs
GO
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.MyTestProc
(@InputParamVARCHAR(30) = 'Input',
@OutPutParam1VARCHAR(30) = 'OutputParam1' OUTPUT,
@OutPutParam2VARCHAR(30) = 'OuputParam2' OUTPUT)
AS
BEGIN
SELECT @InputParam, @OutPutParam1, @OutPutParam2
END
GO
-- Call to the proc
USE Pubs
GO
DECLARE @I1VARCHAR(30)
DECLARE @P1VARCHAR(30)
DECLARE @P2VARCHAR(30)

EXECdbo.MyTestProc
@I1,
@P1 OUTPUT,
@P2 OUTPUT
SELECT@I1, @P1, @P2

I have 9 parameters which all have defaul values and 1 that does not, 4 of them show the correct default but 5 of them state <Select a Value>.
I have copied the report project to another pc and the same problem occurs.
I have tried deleting 'reports' and 'reportserver' from iis and recreating them, as well as deleting the actual report from http://localhost/Reports/Pages/Folder.aspx [then selecting 'show details' and deleting and redeploying the report].
I have even tried toggling the default values on/off. I am at a loss, I can only think that the report project file(s) need to be manually amended in some way. There is nothing significantly different between the parameters to justify them not defaulting

Though I am a novice to MS SQL server (2000 I believe), I can do almost!everything I need. Maybe not efficiently, but usefully. However, I havea problem -- a complex query problem...I can create a parameter query in a stored procedure, but how do I usethe result set of a parameter query in a select query (in the same oranother sp)? In short, if a select query contains a result table that isgenerated as a parameter query, how do I pass the parameter through theselect query to the nested parameter query?For example, if I have a sp parameter query called [e_typerows], I couldwrite the following select query which uses the (single) result set from[e_typerows] plus other tables or views:SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT bi_occ_01_e.row, bi_occ_01_e.pos,bi_dictionary_e.typestring, bi_occ_01_e.shadowFROM bi_dictionary_e INNER JOIN(bi_occ_01_e INNER JOIN[e_typerows] ON bi_occ_01_e.row = [e_typerows].row) ONbi_dictionary_e.typeid = bi_occ_01_e.typeidORDER BY bi_occ_01_e.row, bi_occ_01_e.posEven though [e_typerows] is a (storted procedure) parameter query thiswill work IF my parameter in [e_typerows] has a default, say "yyyy". Inthe default case no parameter needs passing. But what if it doesn't havea default value or if I need to pass a parameter to it?Is there any way to replace[e_typerows]in the above query with somethinglike [e_typerows @myparameter='xxxx']? (Maybe I should try that! I'veseen nothing about it though.)My parameter query, [e_typerows], looks like this in fact:@typestringparameter varchar(100) = "yyyy"SELECT dbo.bi_dictionary_e.typestring, dbo.bi_occ_01_e.rowFROM dbo.bi_occ_01_e INNER JOINdbo.bi_dictionary_e ONdbo.bi_occ_01_e.typeid = dbo.bi_dictionary_e.typeidGROUP BY dbo.bi_dictionary_e.typestring,dbo.bi_occ_01_e.rowHAVING (dbo.bi_dictionary_e.typestring = @typestringparameter)Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! (For the moment, I firstgenerate the parameter query result set, then I loop through each row ofthat result set and do a select query with that row as a parameter --very complicated!, though it does work.)

I have 5 cascading parameters. They all have default values. I would like the default value of each of these to be selected when the report opens.
It currently works correctly when I preview the report, however when I deploy the report to the server it does not. In the deployed report, the default value of the first parameter is not selected. However, when I select a value for this one, on postback the rest of these parameters get set to their default value. They're all configured the same. I'm confused as to why the first one doesn't default to its default value while the others do.
Got any ideas?
Here's how I have it configured:
Allow null value CHECKED
Allow blank value CHECKED
The rest are unchecked.
Available values: From query
Default Values: Non-queried with a value supplied that exists in the dataset.

I think it has been discussed previously that having default parameter values based on expressions, e.g. a default parameter value of =Split("Bug",",") in multiple parameters will cause a postbacl whenever a user selects different values from the list.
Is this by design? Its a bit of an annoying thing. The refreshpostback doesnt happen if you have basic defaults like ="All" but only when an expression of some sort is used in more than 1 parameter. Does RS think they are linked or something, why does it need to psotback
efresh?

This is regarding Report Services 2005 designing the report in Visual Studio.
Currently I am using a query to populate 2 date selectors in the parameter section at the top of a report. The start and end dates are determined by a query which returns the values based on yet another parameter. If I change the value of the paramter which is supposed to be used by the date selectors they don't seem to feel the need to re-calc themselves. I have 3 other dependent param's in the same report which behave reasonably.
Has anyone seen this before or is there way to somehow force a parameter re-caluclation?

Need some guidelines:
I wanted to create a report with parameters. The users will access the reports via
http://localhost/Reportserver/myReportName
Now, each user will have their own default parameters and would like to be stored(somewhere!!!) as "user preference", so nexttime when they access this report it should display data with the "user preference" parameters.
Can someone give me some advise to implement this.
Many thanks.

In general, what is the most appropriate way to specify a "data driven" default for a report parameter. Seems to me like options are:
1. construct an expression which operates on one of the existing report datasets (possibly the same data set used to populate the defaults dropdown)
2. construct a new dataset which returns a single value which is the desired default
what's the "normal" approach?
For example, I have an MDX dataset which contains the list of dates for which data is available. There is generally some data available for today, but normally the user is interested in the most recent day with data prior to today.
So which would be the better option out of the two above (or a third option if I'm missing something!) to tell my parameter to set itself to:
"The most recent day prior to today for which data exists".

I need to create a stored procedure that will have about 10-15 queries and take 3 parameters.
the variables will be: @lastmonth, @curryear and @id
@lastmonth should inherit Session variable intlastmonth
@curryear should inherit Session variable intCurrYear
@id should inherit Session id
One example query is SELECT hours FROM table WHERE MONTH ='" + Session("intLastmonth") + "' AND YEAR ='" + Session("intCurrYear") + "' AND [NUMBER] = '" + Session("id")
The rest of the queries will be similar and use all 3 variables as well.
How can I go about this and how will queries be seperated.

I'm generating a list of parameters needed by stored procedures, and
I'd like to know which ones have default values assigned to them.
To retrieve the parameter information I use:
sp_sproc_columns @Procedure_Name='InsertUser''
However, the column that is supposed to give the default value,
'COLUMN_DEF' always returns as NULL, even when that column has a
default value assigned to it.
i.e.
CREATE PROCEDURE InsertUser@UserID INT = 10,.....
And then if I do a sp_sproc_columns @Procedure_Name='InsertUser'', the COLUMN_DEF value for the @UserID column is still NULL.
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong and how I can retrieve the default value?
Thanks

I have created a report, and am setting default values for the parameters. Once the default parameters is set, the report automatically generates. Is there a way to make it not automatically generate the report? We are setting the parameters with values that will get the end user the most recent data, but alot of times, they will want to pull older data as well. We don't want them to have to wait for the report to automatically generate before they can change the parameter values

I wrote a report in Visual Studio with some parameters that I gave default values to in the report definition. I deployed it out to the report server and when I look at the report Properties, Parameters section to see the default values. Instead of seeing all of the default values, I see a bunch of "Override Default" buttons. When you click the buttons, you get a blank text box in which to enter a new value.
Someone before me created a report with default values and the parameters section of that report has text boxes with the default values in them.
Does anyone know how to have the default values show up rather than those "Override Default" buttons?
Thanks.

HI,
I am trying to set the following default parameter : datepart("m",now()). The parameter is an integer
If I do this through visual studio 2005 it works just fine.
However I need to change this for a linked report and when I do the same thing in the viewer (using the "Overide Default" key) I get the following error
"The parameter Month contains a value that is not valid. This parameter takes an integer as a value"
Can anyone suggest a way to get arround this ?

Can someone please explain how i would define a multi-valued default parameter within the report Properties -> Parameters. I have an OLAP based report with multi-value parameters. I do not want to set the default values from within BIDS. Instead, I'd like to do this from the ReportServer (after report deployment). I have no problem when i enter a single value as a 'default value', for example:
ReportParm1 String [Deal Dim].[Shelf].&[AAM]
But, how would i define it with multiple values as a 'default value' ?, for example:
ReportParm1 String [Deal Dim].[Shelf].&[ABC] , [Deal Dim].[Shelf].&[DEF]
NOTE: It appears that you cannot use expressions, such as the 'split' function in the 'default value' space.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thank you.

I have a SSRS report using 2008 R2. It prompts the user for the start and end dates. This all works. But now I want the start date parm to default to the first day of the current month and the end date parm to default to the last day of the current month.In the new query window in SQL Server Management Studio, I can run this chunk of code to get the first day of current month:
SELECT DATEADD(MONTH, DATEDIFF(MONTH, 0, GETDATE()), 0)
And this code to get the last day of current month:
SELECT DATEADD(DAY, -(DAY(DATEADD(MONTH, 1, GETDATE()))),
DATEADD(MONTH, 1, GETDATE()))
But I don't know how to do this in SSRS 2008. How can I make my start / end parms to get these values.

I've been running into this issue quite a few times, and have been unable to solve it through reading various posts/forums. Here is the issue
Software Details:
Datawarehouse Database - SQL Server 2008 R2
Reporting Services Version - SSRS 2008 R2
Development Environment - Visual Studio 2008
Problem Details:
I have been writing reports based of a Relational Datamart with dimensions and facts. The report in question uses dimensions for parameters and facts for content. Multi valued parameters are enabled in the report query by using the 'IN(@Paramenter)' statement within the report query. It has a total of 6 multi-value parameters. I assign the same available values from dimension datasets for each parameter to it's default parameter. Theoretically all the values in the option lists should be selected after first render. This is not always the case.
Example:
SELECT *
FROM dbo.MyTable
WHERE
TableColumn0 IN (@Parameter0)
AND
TableColumn1 IN(@Parameter1)
AND ....N (continue syntax to 6 multi valued parameters)
Some of the multi-value drop down lists are defaulting to have every value selected, and some are not. The problem is I need to know why some parameters are not selecting all by default when specified.
