I am working on a report for a client and in the parameter field they would like to be able to use different date ranges if needed. The fields they would like to have parameters for would be Effective Date, Tracking Date, ReCred Letter Sent Date, ReCred Complete Date. Instead of making 4 different reports, I was looking for something I can put in my statement so she can pull either fields.
This is what I thought would work. I am using Microsoft Visual studio. If you think it is better for me to put it in my actual SQL I can do that too.
Here is what I was doing below. The when I try and run the report, it tells me that I need to have a value in each one of my parameters. Can this type of formula work or do I need to have 4 separate reports.
([Tracking Thru Date] >= @trackfrom) AND ([Tracking Thru Date] <= @trackthru) or
([Effective Date] >= @efffrom) AND ([Effective Date] <= @effthru)or
([ReCred Letter Sent Date] >= @sentfrom) AND ([ReCred Letter Sent Date] <= @sentthru) or
([ReCred Complete Date] >= @compfrom) AND ([ReCred Complete Date] <= @thru)
Hi all,Is this legal ?SELECT a.col1,b.col2,c.col3FROM tab1 a WITH (UPDLOCK) , tab2 b, tab3 cWHERE a.col1 = b.col1and b.col2 = c.col1WIll the above cause a UPDLOCK on tab1 and not tab2 and tab3?COmments,thoughts,criticisms?I have a problem with a query that performs a multi-table jointo get column values and then one of the tables in the join isbeing updated. I am getting DEADLOCKs and was wondering if I couldtry and reduce that.Also how can I find out what locks are in effect for a certainquery..Is it syslocks or are there any other tables..?DrD
Greetings:I am trying to conceive what risks might be created by runningmultiple SQL servers within a domain under a single domain account, asopposed to 1) running under the local service account or 2) multipledomain service accounts.In this case, all the SQL servers are SQL2000 running on Win2003. Theservice account is assigned only to the "Domain Users" group.We do use linked server calls, and I have played and suceeded gettingKereberos up to avoid double hop issues when using Windows Auth. Infact, this is one of the reasons that sparked the question in my mind-- in all the MS Kerebos SQL<->SQL examples, the SQL servers run undera unique service account.As an aside, most of the servers are "line of business" servers, butHR runs under a unique server with more sensitive information. I don'treally think that merits a seperate service account, but again, Icould well be missing something.I mostly looking for food for thought, but concrete examples ofgotchas would be appreciated.Thanks all.d.
Hello, since a couple of days I'm fighting with RS 2005 and the Stored Procedure.
I have to display the result of a parameterized query and I created a SP that based in the parameter does something:
SET ANSI_NULLS ON SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON CREATE PROCEDURE [schema].[spCreateReportTest] @Name nvarchar(20)= ''
AS BEGIN
declare @slqSelectQuery nvarchar(MAX);
SET NOCOUNT ON set @slqSelectQuery = N'SELECT field1,field2,field3 from table' if (@Name <> '') begin set @slqSelectQuery = @slqSelectQuery + ' where field2=''' + @Name + '''' end EXEC sp_executesql @slqSelectQuery end
Inside my business Intelligence Project I created: -the shared data source with the connection String - a data set : CommandType = Stored Procedure Query String = schema.spCreateReportTest When I run the Query by mean of the "!" icon, the parameter is Prompted and based on the value I provide the proper result set is displayed.
Now I move to "Layout" and my undertanding is that I have to create a report Paramater which values is passed to the SP's parameter... So inside"Layout" tab, I added the parameter: Name allow blank value is checked and is non-queried
the problem is that when I move to Preview -> I set the value into the parameter field automatically created but when I click on "View Report" nothing has been generated!!
I have two report , first is main report which is matrix and have one parameter User_ids which is multi value selection and my second report is basic chart of user_wise performance.
Now, my main report (matrix ) works fine for Multiple selection of users and i have putted one textbox on main report chart which has action properties set for chart report, when user click on chart button it must goes to chart with user selected in main report. Now , i have used expression for parameter to send it like ..
=join(parameter!user_id!value,",") which pass selected value to chart
And when I am selecting single user it passing that value to chart parameter list but , when it is more than one user it errors with conversion failed when converting the nvarchar value '121,128' to data type int. But my chart also works when passing 121,128 in user parameter in preview of report .
I need "conditional" cascading parameters: In Report Manager when one changes parameter 1, parameter 2 get changed based on parameter 1. Optionally, one can also enter values to parameter 2 directly.
I was able to achieve this in SSRS 2000 (SP2) with the following setups. SSRS 2005 and SP1 no longer works - Parameter 2 always shows its default value regardless whether one select a value in Parameter 1 or not.
Parameter 1 available values: from query default values: non query (specify a value "<None>") Parameter 2 available values: Non query (no value specified) default values: from query (based on Parameter 1)
It seems to me that the default value in SSRS 2000 is considered as cascading parameter. But it is no longer the case in SSRS 2005.
Is this a SSRS 2005 bug? is there any other work arounds or suggestions?
I have parameters in my report. The user can choose the year, month and date (3 parameters). Now I want to set default vaules for the parameters , so that the user sees the report for example for the current day without selecting the parameters. I tried to set the type of the parameters to DateTime and the default value for example for the year to "=Today().Year" . But when I execute the report an error occures . Something like : no validValue for this parameter.
My Attributes for the year month and date are from an Analyis Services Cube from a Server Time dimension . Does somebody know how to make it possible to set default values for this parameters?
Other question :
Does somebody know how I can reduce the values for a parameter. For Example I have a parameter "year" from a server time dimension from a cube. The values which are available are "Year 2004", "Year 2005", "Year 2006", "Year 2007". But I want that the user only can choose "Year 2006" or "Year 2007" ant not every Year or "All". Or Other Example: The User should only choose a Date that is int the past or Today but not a Date in the future.
my dataset from sharepoint list. and this dataset value assign to parameter. i want when no any parameter is selected than it should filter like "ALL". when i select alow null value it give me prompt error you can not select null in multivalue parameter.How can i do it. i am using share point list.
Does anyone know if this is possible right out of the box in SSRS 2005 against an OLAP data source?
I have several parameters. My second parameter is to be filtered based on the first parameter (kinda like cascading), but how do I do this against an OLAP data source? Lets say I have param1 and param2 in a dataset. I want Param2 to show the locations only based on what I select in Param1. Same but a little different: I have Parameter1 and then my second parameter (Param2) is a boolean (True/False). I want to show Parameter 3/Paramater 4 based on selection of Param2 (So, if true, show Param3, if false, show Param 4) and remember we are doing this in a sequence. Can you do this thru SSRS? Any help would be great. Thanks for your time in advance. Kent
Is it possible to fill a parameter list with values based on another parameter value? Here's what I have so far (which hasn't worked)... I'd like to generate a report listing information for a student. The report viewer would first select a school from the first drop-down menu, and then the second drop-down menu would populate with the list of students at that school. I have a dataset that calls a sp which returns a list of schools (SchoolID and SchoolName fields from the database table). I have another dataset that calls a sp (with SchoolID as the parameter) which returns a list of students for that school. Both datasets return the appropriate data when tested individually, but when I set up the Report Parameters and build the report, these errors come up... The value expression for the query parameter '@SchoolID' refers to a non-existing report parameter 'SchoolID'. The report parameter 'Student' has a DefaultValue or a ValidValue that depends on the report parameter "SchoolID". Forward dependencies are not valid. ...Is it possible for the reoprt to generate a list of available parameter values based on the value selected for another parameter? Any help you can give me would be great!! Thank you
I am using reporting services 2012, Can we make visibility of report parameter dynamic, ie can we make parameter visible or hide on certain condition or its visibility depends on other parameters Is this feature available in any other updated version of ssrs?
I had thought that this was possible but I can't seem to figure out the syntax. Essentially I have a report where one of the parameters is populated by a stored procedure.
Right now this is easily accomplished by using "exec <storedprocname>" as the query string for the report parameter. However I am not clear if it is possible to now incorporate User!UserID as parameter to the stored procedure. Is it? Thanks
I would like to be able to adjust the multi-value property of a parameter based on the value of another parameter in my report. The controlling paramter would be binary with two options for Single or Multiple selection. I would like my parameter to default to multi-value, which I can do on the screen selection. I have tried to add an IIF statement to the XML code, with no success. Any ideas would be helpful.
I have a report parameter called para1 which is a drop-down list and what I want to do is display another report parameter based on the para1 selection.
So for example, para1 contains a, b, c choices. if a user selects b, I would like para2 to display but if the user selects a or c, I don't want the para2 to display.
Using SQL Server 2008R2 and Report Builder 3.0..I have an action set in a text box of a table. My intent is to pass the value of that text box (which is variable) to a sub-report in a popup window. Here's my code: URL....The parameter of the report I'm trying to open is @SONum.I'm guessing my error is involved in the formatting of how the value of the parameter is being passed. I've also seen examples where the report server and report values were parameterized, but I don't know where to define
Parameters!ServerAddress.Value anywhere.Do I need to have something set up a certain way within the report I'm opening? Here's the report Parameter settings on the report I'm trying to open.
I'll go to a dataset, open up the query designer, add a new parameter, then refresh the fields, but the parameter won't be added as a report parameter. If I go to the dataset properties under the list of parameters, the value in the dropdown will be blank. However, sometimes this will automatically add.
Is this a bug in Visual Studio? How do I get around this?
I want to set the default parameters for a function. I;d like to set the date start date to current date and end date for the last 90 days. how to make this work?
Create Function HR.Equipment ( @startdate Date =(Convert(Date,DATEADD(DAY,-1,GETDATE())), @enddate Date = (Convert(Date,@StartDate-90) ) RETURNS TABLE AS RETURN ( SELECT EquipID, EmpName, IssueDate FROM HR.Equipment WHERE IssueDate <=@StartDate and IssueDate >=@EndDate ) GO
After running my ssis pkg for some time with no problems I saw the following error come up, probably during execution of a stored procedure ...
An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E14. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80040E14 Description: "The formal parameter "@ReportingId" was not declared as an OUTPUT parameter, but the actual parameter passed in requested output.".
I see some references to this on the web (even this one) but so far they seem like deadends. Doe anybody know what this means? Below is a summary of how the variable is used in the stored proc.
The sp is declared with 21 input params only, none of them is @ReportingId. It declares @ReportingId as a bigint variable and uses it in the beginning of the proc as follows...
Code Snippet select @ReportingId = max(ReportingId) from [dbo].[GuidToReportingid] where Guid = @UniqueIdentifier and EffectiveEndDate is null
if @ReportingId is null BEGIN insert into [dbo].[GuidToReportingId] select @UniqueIdentifier,getdate(),null,getdate() set @ReportingId = scope_identity() END ELSE BEGIN select @rowcount = count(*) from [dbo].[someTable] where ReportingId = @ReportingId and...lots of other conditions
...later as part of an else it does the following...
Code Snippet if @rowcount > 0 and @joinsMatch = 1 begin set @insertFlag = 0 end else begin update [dbo].[GuidToReportingId] set EffectiveEndDate = getdate() where ReportingId = @ReportingId insert into [dbo].[GuidToReportingId] select @UniqueIdentifier,getdate(),null,getdate() set @ReportingId = scope_identity() end
...and before the return it's value is inserted to different tables.
I have created a menu report listing available reports and am setting the Jump to settings of each text box in the list to take the user to the relevent report. But I am having a problem setting up drill down to reports with multivalued parameters.
What I want to happen when the user drills down is for the report to open up with no parameter values selected. This works for single value parameters where I have set Null as the default value. But I have not been able to figure out how to do this with MVPs. Does anybody know if this is possible?
As a workaround I have been using Jump to URL (rather than Jump to report), which has no problem opening the report without having to pass any values for the MPV. But I do not like using this as I use different DEV/UAT and PROD environments so would have to amend the URL for each environment.
Seems like this should be possible... Any idea?
Cheers, Mike
PS: I should add I can Jump to reports with MVP without specifying a parameter in development studio but not when the report is published.
I have a parameter (hidden) that gets its value using an expression base on another parameter. When in the designer, the first time when the designer loads I can select the Parameter that controls the child parameter (expression lies in the default value section). The value changes.
When I change the parent parameter again, the value of the child parameter does not seem to change.
How can I make this parameter change automatically when the parent is changed ?
I have a stored procedure which takes an input parm and is supposed to return an output parameter named NewRetVal.

I know i can accomplish this by setting a session variable on page load on the server side (Session["UserName"]= User.Identity.Name) and then use a session parameter, but I was wondering how to do it without using session variables, i was hoping the following code would work, but it doesn't. Thanks for any ideas.
I have a dataset listing distinct values for items (like 1, D10, M4, etc.) The WHERE statement in my query refers to unit IN(@Unit). I then have 2 report parameters to select 1) a date (datetime); and 2) a multivalue parameter to select one or all of the "units". I would like the second parameter to default to "Select All". Can someone tell me how to do this? I'm sure this is a fairly simple thing but I am really struggling. The report parameter is set as multivalue; My "available values" is set to "from query" and refers to my "unit" dataset and the value and label fields are set to "unit" (only field I bring into this particular dataset). The "Default Values" section is set to "from query" , the dataset is set to "unit" and the value is set to "unit". I can preview the report and select a date but the list of units comes up with all boxes unchecked, including "Select All". Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks.
I have this semi-complex query that is selecting items from numerous tables residing on 2 different databases. So far the query works perfectly. Here is the problem: The user is given the option of selecting items based on whether a course is Completed (C) Incomplete (I) Passed (P) Failed (F) or (ALL). I am not really sure how to do the select all, the others I can do depending on the value...
Any thoughts??

I am not sure this is the correct place to post this question, but here it is. I am trying to pass some parameters to SSIS from a report using the report parameter, then SSIS will create the datareaderdest and return to the report to use.
Anyone have any idea, guidance or leads please share it out. Thanks in advance.
I'm putting together a crosstab showing some facts for a year, compared to the year before (so we're showing 2 years). Years in the columns and a dimension in the rows. Nothing fancy, but we do want to put in a parameter so the users can choose which year they want to see. So I put a range and get two parameters. We now want the first parameter, the "from", to take the value of the "to" - 1. I can get the same value in there, but appearantly getting the previous year isn't as simple as just taking the parameter - 1. A helping hand would be great. This all seems a bit overkill for what to me feels like an easy report, so I feel like I'm missing something.
