I have report A and Report B. In Report A I am using the Jump to Report functionality to go to Report B. I have a multi-valued parameter in botht the reports. So In Parmeters I am giving
Parameters!xx.value to pass the value from Report A to Report B. The multi valued parameter has values 1,2,3,4 in both the reports.
I have a scenario where I need to pass a value of 5 to the report B. When I try to hard code the value I run into error while going to the second reeport saying parameter not declared.
I am forced to use a Sp in teh first place as my query is too long for the text dataset. I have a parameter Time_Period which ia a multivalued one but it is not allowing me to use this in the SP. using RS 2005.
I have a multi-valued parameter that I want to pass to a subreport. The values are 11, 12, 13, and 14.
So here's what I've done:
1. For the properties of the clickable field of the first report, I have gone to the Navigation tab and chosen the subreport in the "jump to report" pulldown.
2. Then I clicked on the Parameters button and added a parameter name for the multi-valued parameter I am trying to send. For the Parameter value, I have tried 11,12,13,14. I have also tried =Split(11,12,13,14)
3. On the subreport, I create a report parameter with the same name, data type is string, multi-value is checked, and the available values pulldown is populated by a query.
So I run the first report and click on the link that brings me to the subreport, but all the subreport shows is the results for 11, not 12, 13, and 14.
How can I get the second report to understand that I want it to show all the records related to 11, 12, 13, and 14? If I bypass the first report and simply use the drop-down to choose 11, 12, 13, and 14 in the subreport, it works fine. I just can't seem to figure out how to correctly have the first report tell the subreport that it wants 11, 12, 13, and 14.
i have a report that can show upto 8 charts, dependant on the selection(s) made in a multi-valued parameter.
basically, the report gets loads of data back from DataCube.
if the user has selected (for example) 2 categories in the multi-valued parameter (e.g. "beverages" & "confectionary") , the the first chart will show the results filtered for "beverages" and the second chart will show the results for the "confectionary" category.
but
i want to hide any charts that are not used - i.e. the user only selects 3 categories, i want to show 3 and hide 5 charts and am trying to do this with IIF in the FILTER properties of the chart
so for each chart, i am checking to see if a Category selection has been made for that chart - and if it has, filter the results and display the chart. if no selection has been made, then filter the results for "XXXXX" (no data with this category)
am doing this by trying to get the selected value or "xxxxx" if noting selected
to hide the second chart when only one category has been selected, tried
But it works fine when there are > 2 categories selected
also
this works fine when there is 2 or >2 category selected
=iif(
Parameters!LOOKUPITEMCategoryDescription.count>2,
"more than 2",
"not more than 2")
it would appear that IIF is trying to evaluate the TRUE condition(Parameters!HydraCORELOOKUPITEMCategoryDescription.Label(2)) even though the condition is false !!!
after the installation of SP1 I have a problem with multi-valued report parameters. The option to select all values are gone. Is there a bug within SP1?
Before the installtion of SP1 multi-valued report parameters works fine, the option to select all values was added automatically within the preview in Visual Studio 2005 and in published reports on the server.
The server was migrated from SQL2000 SP4 to SQL2005.
I am creating a Line chart report from a table. The source table includes a code column (String), date column (Datetime), and 12 statistic columns (Int). The dates are end of month dates only. ("1/31/2006", "2/28/2006","3/31/2006", etc.) There are about 8 different codes for each month. The statisic columns are the totals for the month for each code for a particular statistic.
On my line chart I want to show one or more statistics for one year for one or more codes. (A line for each statistic for a given code) The report has multi-valued parameters for the codes and the statistics. I have figured out how to create the chart for one or more codes for a given statistic. How can I select one or more statistic? Can any one help me out?
I am struggling with an issue with multi-valued parameters. I have a parameter that is a list of several hundred items and when someone selects all of them, I display the huge list in the report header vias the join command.
This works great for a few parameters, but overwrites my data when the list is large. I want to do something in the expression where I determine if all items are selected and then just display 'All' instead of the whole list. Any ideas would be very helpful!
DECLARE @ServerCIName varchar(5000) SELECT * FROMÂ dbo.INC WHERE Status in ('Assigned','In Progress','Pending') and Description like '%' + (Select * from SplitDelimiterString(@ServerName,',')) + '%' and (select DATEADD(dd, DATEDIFF(dd, 0, (Submit_Date)), 0)) = (select DATEADD(dd, DATEDIFF(dd, 0, getdate()), 0)) In place of "and Description like '%' + (Select * from SplitDelimiterString(@ServerName,',')) + '%' ", if I use "and Description like '%' + @ServerName + '%' " and pass a single value, it works.
But @ServerName contains multiple values and it is dynamic (not constant).
I am trying to selectively show or hide a table based on the values in a multi valued parameter. How can I examine all values (simulate the like functionality) within an expression?
I am currently working with 3 multi-valued parameters whose data sources are queries. The first 2 are required to have entries, 100% of the time, but the third one may or may not require selecting a value. Parm3's data source is filtered by the selections of Parm1 & Parm2. The data source for my report references Parm3 in a derived table that is then LEFT OUTER JOINed.
In the cases where the report does not require any selection from Parm3 I am still required to pick at least 1 entry. Can anyone shed some light on this, or provide a solution so I am not forced to pick any if I don't want?
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 am creating a function where I want to pass it parameters and then use those parameters in a select statement. When I do that it selects the variable name as a literal not a column. How do I switch that context.
Query:
ALTER FUNCTION [dbo].[ufn_Banner_Orion_Employee_Comparison_parser_v2] ( @BANNER_COLUMN AS VARCHAR(MAX), @ORION_COLUMN AS VARCHAR(MAX) ) RETURNS @Banner_Orion_Employee_Comparison TABLE
[code]....
Returns:
I execute this:
select * from ufn_Banner_Orion_Employee_Comparison_parser_v2 ('a.BANNER_RANK' , 'b.[rank]')
I have researched this question and so far have found very different opinions as to how or if it is possible.I have created 2 Data-driven subscriptions in SSRS. 1 for our sales persons and another for our managers reports. For the salespersons report, the solution works brilliantly as expected and I can appreciated the increased simplicitly for having 1 subscription to drive reports to a sales staff of over 100 folks.One the other hand, I can't seem to grasp the significance of this type of solution for the Sales managers when they have multiple salespersons that report to them.
Apparently, SSRS 2008 has provided no practical solution for this scenario that would be easily implemented in a Data driven subscription.Since I can't find a way to pass in muliple integer values that represent each of the salesreps for a single manager, I am stuck with potentially sending multiple reports for each of the Sales Reps residing under a single manager. Not very elegant or useful as I'd hoped for using Data driven subscriptions. I have even changed the parameter datatype to string and used something like:
paramSalesPeople = substring((SELECT ( ', ' + CAST(territoryid AS VARCHAR(2000))) FROM Reports..SalesForce t2 WHERE t1.SalesManagerID = t2.SalesManagerID ORDER BY SalesManagerID FOR XML PATH( '' )), 3, 1000 )
To create a comma-delimited list of values for the parameters in effort of generating 1 (ONE) record per Manager. But the Data Driven Subscription fails miserably.So the question, Is it or is it not possible to have multiple values passed as a single parameter to a data driven subscription to consolidate the number of required reports into one. If not, it would seem that it should be possible since it can be done from the reports parameters drop-down menu.I have read someones recommendation to script the multi-valued parameter which seems to defeat the intent of the term "Data Driven' Subscription if I have to hard-code this logic into a script.
I downloaded the sample reports for report execution from http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms161561.aspx
to display reporting services report execution data which worked fine until I'd written a report with multi-valued parameters. As soon as this was designed and more importantly run by an user the package used to create the reports crashed.
I've found out why it's breaking mainly through digging around in the script task where the package crashes and also through surfing the net and finding this
thread. I've tried their fix but it still crashes unfortunately.
It seems like the issue is populating an array indexes in the script component in the update parameters data flow task. I think this was written to deal with minimal parameter requests, however I've recently written a multi-valued parameter report and it's made the string containing the parameter details has now hit the maximum length for the string. Changing the WSTR 4000 to a different size doesn't seem to have an effect, and the forum entry above doesn't hint at what the problem is apart from the script not being able to deal with the length.
The error I now get is as follows:
at MyComponent1.ScriptMain.Input0_ProcessInputRow(Input0Buffer Row) in dts://Scripts/MyComponent1/ScriptMain:line 35 at MyComponent1.UserComponent.Input0_ProcessInput(Input0Buffer Buffer) in dts://Scripts/MyComponent1/ComponentWrapper:line 68 at MyComponent1.UserComponent.ProcessInput(Int32 InputID, PipelineBuffer Buffer) in dts://Scripts/MyComponent1/ComponentWrapper:line 25 at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.ScriptComponentHost.ProcessInput(Int32 inputID, PipelineBuffer buffer)
I've seen some theads on this but cant seem to get this right. Report A has 5 parameters 2 of them are multi value-- when I click on part of Report A I want to jump to report B and pass all parameter values from report A. The single value ones work but multi value only passes on value and not all values selected-- what am I missing here? Do I need to pass the values in the multi value parameters in an array??
I am trying to create a SSRS subscription from an asp.net app. I collect the parameter values from the client and make the arrangements to send them to the CreateSubscription method. When the report has single value parameters, my code works perfectly. But if there is a report param with multiple values, I get the error
System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Default value or value provided for the report parameter '<paramName>' is not a valid value
My parameter is string type and supports multiple values. I am passing the following string as its Value:
I've been asked to set up a data driven subscription for a number of reports which use multi value parameters. For example, show me all transactions against the following departments: IT, Building Services, Accounts.
As an interactive report it's simple, the user just selects the relevant departments, but as a data driven subscription I can't seem to find the correct format to pass the selections through.
Hello, I am attempting to create a cascading parameter. Parameter's 1 & 2 are multi-valued. Datasets 1 & 2 supply Parameter's 1 & 2. The values for Parameter 1 as derived from Dataset 1 are 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D' and 'E'. The potential values for Parameter 2 will only be created if value 'C' is amongst the multiple values selected for Parameter 1. Thus I need to write my query for Dataset 2 so that it can check the values of Parameter 1 for the existence of 'C' otherwise it returns nothing. What is the best practice for a dataset referencing the values of a multi-valued parameter in order to generate it's resultset?
I want to set defaults for my multi-valued report parameter MONTH so that when the report starts, it automatically selects all the months prior to the current month (effectively creates a YTD report). However, using RS2005, I can't seem to figure out how to do this. I can create an IIF expression in 12 different value entries in the report parameters that returns the month based on the system date, but the first time I pass blanks, null or anything except a valid parameter, it clears the entire parameter list when the report displays.
Does anyone have any suggestions for auto-populating multiple values in a parameter at runtime where one or more of the parameter values may be empty? Checking "Allow Null" or "Allow Blank" doesn't fix this problem.
I tried to pass all the values in a single value entry on the report parameters page, but can't find the syntax that will allow this. I'm not sure if it will let you do that anyway...
Hi, I am creating a data set for a ROLAP report which executes a dynamic SQL using EXEC. I am finding problems parameterizing multi-valued report parameters in the SQL being executed through EXEC. To consider a sample code:
EXEC('select * from country where country_key in ('+@country+')')
where @country is a multi-valued report parameter.
I'm creating a Multi-statement Table-Valued Function...
Is it possible to insert variables into the table? In other words, is it possible to have something like
declare @value1 varchar(10) @value2 varchar(10)
BEGIN <do some work on value1 and value2> INSERT @returningTable @value1, @value2
instead of
BEGIN <do some work on value1 and value2> INSERT @returningTable SELECT col1, col2 from T_SOURCE
Here's why I want to insert variables...My function needs to return a table which contains a 'partial' incremental key. I'll go with an example to explain what i have to do
Source_table col1 col2 Mike 10 Mike 20 Ben 50 John 15 John 25 John 35
The table that my function needs to create should look like this col1 col2 col3 Mike 10 1 Mike 20 2 Ben 50 1 John 15 1 John 25 2 John 35 3
I thought of creating a cursor and then looping through it generate col3 and save values of other individual columns in variables. But don't know how to use those variables when inserting records into function table.
Any other ideas? I'm caoming from Oracle world, I might be having some strange ideas on how to solve this problem. Any help is appreciated.
Hey I have created a multi-statement table valued function
alter function fn_x(@x int)returns @tbl table ( position int identity primary key, i int) as begin insert into @tbl values (@x) insert into @tbl values (@x) insert into @tbl values (@x) insert into @tbl values (@x) returnend
Is it possible skipping the definition of the table columns (the light blue part)?I need to return a different structure based on a parameter.Dropping those lines throws an error "incorrect syntax near 'as'" The other solution is declaring each udf separately as one statement udf.Thanks
I need to create a function which takes a multi-value parameter. When I select more than one item, I get the error that I have too many arguments. Does anybody have a solution?
Or can I create a view and then do a "SELECT * FROM viewName WHERE columnName IN (@param)"?
Hello Everyone, I am trying to expand the multi-valued parameter menu object so I can display the selection list in a more user-friendly format since the text is fairly long. If left at the default setting then I have to scroll to the right to see the complete string(s). For a single-select parameter I can just CAST the string to CHAR(100) and the menu object will expand. However, it seems that this approach is not working for multi-valued parameter menu objects. Is this a bug in SSRS, and is there another way to accomplish this. Please let me know.
I have a Multi-valued parameter that is a string type and it freaks out when a do a select all from my drop down list. I suspect it has something to do with size as it works great if a pick a reasonable amount of items. My parameter list is populated by 1463 items of 12 characters each. Is there a threshold I should have to worry about?
i am encountering a problem in a stored procedure when a pass a variable value into a table-valued function. The table-valued function is named getCurrentDriver and has 1 attribute: car-ID.
The syntax is as follows:
select car.id, car.licenceNumber, car.brand, car.model, (select driverName from getCurrentDriver(car.id)) as driverName from car
When I try to compile I get following error on the line of the function: Incorrect syntax near '.'
The database version is SQL Server 2000 SP3.
What am I doing wrong? Is there a workaround for this error?
I'm running 2014 enterprise and getting an error on this form of a query...it says the multi part identifier "mns.col3" could not be bound. I'm aware that a cross apply would be more appropriate but i'm just prototyping and probably going to move to a set based approach anyway.The udf returns a table.
select mns.col1, mns.col2 from table1 mns left join dbo.udf_udf1(@firstofmonth,@lastofmonth, mns.col3) x on 1=1
