Hi:
I am new to reporting services and wanted to see if anyone had any experience trying to do this...that "this" is passing a parameter to a report, but having the user fill in some others. I can pass all of my parameters to the report or let the user fill all of them in, but it doesn't seem to let me fill in one and have the users fill in the others.
Does anyone know if this is possible?
I am building a webapp that calls an SSRS instance to display a report based on another servers web service.I can make a call from the ssrs server using this in the RDL:
<Query>
<Method Namespace="http://machine/webservices" Name="HelloUser">
               <Parameters>
                               <Parameter Name="user">
                               <DefaultValue>Craig</DefaultValue>
                               </Parameter>
               </Parameters>
</Method>
<ElementPath IgnoreNamespaces="true">*</ElementPath>
</Query>
This works no problem. but.. I want to have the user parameter "Craig" be a parameter passed in from the web app. If it were a regular SQL data source you would put @user in the query. How do you do it with XML text queries?
I am trying to develop a report from cube,and it has one drill through report.when i click on sales amount field on main report,then it open the drill through report with details.Here i passed the **(category,subcat,product)parameters(Cascaded)** to drill through report in action part of main report.In my main report i have two columns .
columns are **Level**  and        **Salesamount**. Â
Values are like Â
**[-]category** Â Â Â Â Â Â Â **100**
  **[-]subcat**       **50**
     **product**      **30**
when i click on 100, parameters are passed & it open the detail report correctly, but when i click on 50,the values for subcat parameter is not getting values in detail report and same as the product also.
Here i used the expressions in parameter values
**pCategory**----iif(inscope(category),!fields.category.value,split(join(Parameters!category.value,","),","))
**psubcat**----iif(inscope(subcat),!fields.subcat.value,split(join(Parameters!subcat.value,","),","))
**pproduct**----iif(inscope(product),!fields.product.value,split(join(Parameters!product.value,","),","))
I have created a custom data extension.
I am using this custom data extension from BI Studio.
Que1: I want to create report parameters from BI studio and capture them in my Data Extension.
Que2: Every report parameter has so many properties, like hidden, internal, default value etc, how do capture that information in my data extension, the parameters only give me name and value.
Que3: I know I can capture command Text. So My command can be Select * From tablename where fieldname= @myFieldname. Once I get this commandText in my data extension, How do extract parameters of the command?
Que4: If I have any custom attributes in my RDL file, Can I capture them in my Data Extension ?
Any help is appreciated...
I am attempting to pass report parameters to my query. My report's data source is a WCF web service. I can run normal queries fine, but I have found that without the know-how to pass parameters to my query I am limited with my capabilities.
Assume a string parameter named "Name" with a specified default value of "Jmachol90", how would I pass that into the following query at the designated place:
 Â
<Query>
      <Method Namespace="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/masterdataservices/2009/09" Name="SecurityPrincipalsGetRequest">
      <Parameters>
      <Parameter Name="Criteria" Type="XML">
<DefaultValue>

I am passing a field value from main report to a parameter in a drill through sub report. But some field values contain 'special characters'. Those field values that contain special characters are not working for drill through. Javascript code to include special characters to pass to sub report parameter?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHere is a situation in my company:
We have an Office SharePoint 2007 site, we developed a couple of web parts and added them to our site. We used SQL Server Reporting services 2005 as our reporting solution. The reports are hosted on the report center and when we need a report, we open it by sending a URL requesting the report, passing the report parameters in the URL query string. So the report is filtered based on the parameters passed from the web parts.
But since best practices say that you should host reports directly under SharePoint, by configuring the reporting services to run in the SharePoint integrated mode. We followed the steps and installed SharePointRS and we finally succeeded to publish the reports to a SharePoint folder, but we had a limitation: we are unable to pass the report parameters internally to the report hosted in SharePoint. If we passed them in the query string as the report center case, SharePoint neglects them totally.
So the question is: how can I pass parameters internally between a SharePoint web part and a SQL server 2005 reporting services report hosted in SharePoint?
I am creating a drill through that will go out and find the correctreport out of 27 that equal my 2 parameters NAME_ID and DETAIL_ID.Does anyone out there have any ideas for me? I can make it conect to 1report. I do not know how to make it search for the correct report

I have an asp.net app that is calling a reporting service url. on that url I pass two parameters as query strings. In the Report I defined the query string parameters in the Report Parameters. I then want these two parameters to be passed to the stored procedure in the report. How can I make this happen? The parameters seem to get to the Report but I can't seem to get them mapped to the stored proc. In the data set I defined the stored procs parameters and mapped them to the corresponding Report Parameters but still no go.
I'm assuming there's something fundamental I'm missing here about passing parameters to reporting services.
Thanks
Hi, I've read some threads in regards to passing report parameters through the 'URL' but I am struggling to fully understand. To keep things simple I have 1 report parameter, named par_pub which brings back either ww06 or ww07. What I require is to click on a hyperlink and it directs me to my report and then populates the par_pub paramerter with ww07.
I am trying the below
http://emp6/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fTest+Reports%2fIT+Dev%2fSales+Summary+Detail&prefixar_pub=%WW07%
The part in bold is the location + name of the report and the later is where I am trying to pass the parameter. Can anyone please help as this is not working.
Thanks
Hi,
I have a problem getting the URL string right to pass parameters from one report to another
This is the URL string I have set in the Navigation property of my text box:
"http://SQL/Reportserver$SQL2005/Pages/Report.aspx?%2fEarlyWarning2%2fratio+reports+-+test%2freport_upper_lower_benchmark_ratio1&rs:Command=Render&rcarameters=false
&company="&Parameters!company.Value.ToString()&Parameters!year.Value.ToString()&Fields!ratioName.Value.ToString()
The first thing is that when I just want to view the report say, with parameters hidden, I get this URL
http://reportserver/?%2fEarlyWarning2%2fratio+reports+-+test%2freport_upper_lower_benchmark_ratio1&rs%3aCommand=Render&rc%3aParameters=false
with the message "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage"
Why does the first part of the URL change?
If I run it with just one parameter, company, I get the same error message with this URL :
http://reportserver/?%2fcompany.Value.ToString()&rs%3aCommand=Render&rc%3aParameters=false&company=%22
It looks like no value for the company parameter being passed
Any suggestions appreciated

Hi,
I have created a report in VS 2003 using command type as Text for a stored procedure. The stored procedure itself takes in 2 parameters.
I have passed one of them in the exec statement but the other parameter is the one which I want to pass to the stored procedure through report.
So, in short, I have got this statement in dataset
EXEC SP1 1
Which means only 1 of the arguments is being passed to the stored procedure and not the second one. I would appreciate if some one can guide me on how to pass a report parameter to the stored procedure which using command type text
Cheers.
Hi. I've got a report I'm designing for the web using a ReportViewer control and an RDLC report file. Here's what needs to happen in the report,
The main report calls one stored procedure with some user provided parameters, which returns a dataset.
A sub-report will use 2 of the columns returned from the dataset above to call another stored procedure, which then provides the dataset used for the ReportViewer control.
I'm lost in trying to implement this. How do I call the first stored procedure to get the data? Then how do I pass the returned columns to the sub-report?
The main report will have a number of these sub-reports, each on its own page. I'm just trying to implement the first sub-report. Is there an easier way to implement this without using sub-reports? Thanks.
I have an MDX data-set query as follows: -
Member [Measures].[Measure3] As [Measures].[Value Rent Period Receipts]
Member [Measures].[Measure4] As (([Measures].[Value Rent Period Receipts]*-1)/[Measures].[Value Rent Period Debit])
Select {[Measures].[Measure1]
,[Measures].[Measure2]
,[Measures].[Measure3]
[Code] ....
There are two parameters; the value of lag passed to the LastPeriods function, and tenancy types passed in the where clause
I have a third parameter I would like to use called FirstDate and this I would like to pass to the LastPeriods function as the second argument
FirstDate is a value from my Time dimension, something like [Time].[Fiscal Time].[Sep. 15]
When editing the query to: -
Member [Measures].[Measure3] As [Measures].[Value Rent Period Receipts]
Member [Measures].[Measure4] As (([Measures].[Value Rent Period Receipts]*-1)/[Measures].[Value Rent Period Debit])
Select {[Measures].[Measure1]
,[Measures].[Measure2]
[Code] ....
The code errors. I have tried all sorts of formats such as  LastPeriods(@LagMonths,[@FirstDate]) and LastPeriods(@LagMonths,[Time].[Fiscal Time].[@FirstDate]), but nothing works
We've developed several reports where you can type in / select variables and run them, affecting their outcomes.
We'd like to change this so if the user clicks on a link from our Intranet, this takes them straight to the report with the appropriate parameter(s) - rather like the "jump to report" function within a report - i.e. the url for that function...
Is this possible?

I'm currently trying to create a report that will take three parameters in the URL to generate a report: year, month, and day. The report is using an analysis services data source in RS 2005. Now, my problem is that the parameters being passed in the URL are not being selected in the drop down boxes for the parameters. The report does not throw any exceptions, and after the user selects values for the year, month, and day everything generates successfully.
Here is the URL format I am trying: http://localhost/ReportServer?/FolderName/ReportName&rs:Command=render&Year=2006&Month=6&Day=9
Currently, my parameters are all set to null for default values. They are also not multivalued, not internal, not hidden, don't allow blank, and don't allow null. I have also looked through the valid values in the drop down box for each parameter and verified that the values I supplied in the URL do exist. Also, the data types for each parameter is Integer just like the data type found in the database.
In my opinion, this problem seems directly related to using an analysis services data source. After I was getting this problem, I created a sample report using SQL Server data source, used the same three parameters, and passed them in the URL. Everything on that report worked perfectly.
Please help, I've looked thorugh almost every piece of documentation regarding parameters for Reporting Services and still no luck. Thanks!!
Hi All,
I want to dynamically generate the SQL Server Reporting Services by passing the query parameter from the url like this :
"http://localhost/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fDashboardReports%2fHorse_Profile&rs:Command=Render&rcarameters=false&HorseID=117415"
Where horseid id my parameter which is needed by report to generate the required data.
This query paramter value is picked from the text box on my jsp page.
But my problem is when i go to this url it says the message
"The 'HorseID' parameter is missing a value ".
In my report i have disabled the prompt user option , enable the Hide paramter option and has given no default value for this parameter.
I have done a lot of search on this topic. Everybody says that we can pass the values from the url like i am using. But still its not working. This forum is my last hope.
Any body has any idea please give me some idea.
Regards.

I am developing a report against OLAP. I have a main report and a sub report. The parameters to both are exactly the same. I am passing parameters to sub report from main. Whenever I use Field!Fieldname.Value as a parameter value to the sub report, I get an error saying one or more parameters required to run the report have not been specified. I used the UniqueName, but that doesnt do my grouping right ( I dont think this works for multi-value report)
I am lost...I need to figure this out ASAP. Does somebody know an article or do you know as how to deal with OLAP reports as sub reports and passing parameters as multi-value? I tried to attach the code, but I ran out of maximum characters...
Code Snippet

In the above code, the XML parser does not understand the Parameters element. I've also tried ReportParameters as the name of the element. I don't seem to understand why, because in the SQL data tab, Parameters is a subelement of DataSet. Why am I getting this error and how do I programmatically specify that I want a report created on the fly to have parameters?

Hi,
From a aspx page I was able to Pass values (valid values) for the parameters to SSRS report 2005 which uses OLAP cube as datasource and got back the expectd result. but when I pass value other than a valid value i am getting ERROR message. do we always have to pass valid values only? any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Srik
I've created a line chart in my report which lists number of transactions by month. I've also created a report to list transactions by day. My goal is for the user to select a month and link the report to the graph with the selected month divided up into days (in other words, the user wants to see the number of transactions for each day in the selected month).
Anyway, everything is working perfectly except for one thing. In the list of parameters that I am passing to the report for each day, I want to pass a multivalue parameter which contains all the transaction IDs the user selected in creating the report (these are supplied by a multivalue parameter). However, in the parameter dialog box where it asks for a value to send to the awaiting parameter, I do not know how to supply more than one value. If I need to pass one value, it will work fine. However, I would like to do something like:
JOIN(Parameters!TransactionID.value, ",")
for the value of TransactionID, but when I generate the report it is not accepting the values. I'm pretty sure its just a format issue, and I just need to know how exactly I should pass these values.
I already understand that when passing multivalue parameters in a URL you need something like:
TransactionID=1&TransactionID=2
...in order to select multiple values. However, this is a slightly different situation. I'm really running out of ideas, so any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you guys so much
I have two subreports on one master report who's parameters @ReportDate would be set to the same date each time the report is run. When i run the master report i get an error for each report that tells me that one or more parameters required to run the report have not been specified. How do i pass the parameter i want to use in both reports from the master report through to the subreports.
Thanks again!
I have two reports.
1. Main Report
2. Sub Report.
I have cascading parameters in 'Main Report'. When i try to pass cascading parameters in to sub-report, I could pass only 'first parameter' value to sub-report.Is there a way that i can pass cascading parameters to the child report?
Hi
We are accessing reports through our web application. Our front end is implemented using tapestry
Our report is using four parameters. The report url is like
http://<servername>/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?/<Report_Proj_Name>/<ReportName>
We are using POST requests with our report parameters defined as hidden variables.
If we use GET request, with parameters as query string then we are able to view our reports.
When I tried to access the report through web application, it gives out an error message as:
Reporting Services Error
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
An attempt was made to set a report parameter 'formids' that is not
defined in this report. (rsUnknownReportParameter) Get Online Help
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For POST request, we get the above mentioned error. When I saw the view source I could see that tapestry
internally sets its own hidden variable for persisting its state in session.
formids is one of the hidden variable set by it.
How should I specify in the report that formids is not one of the report parameter.
There may be other hidden variables other than formids too that may get generated at runtime.
What setting should I do at the report end or at the application end?
Please help me find a solution for this problem.
Thanks!
Good morning all,
I have a report which is getting its parameters from an ASP.net page. My ASP developer wants to send in simple values, such as the list 1,2,3,4 for a parameter. However my report needs that list to look like [CD RSRC].[RSRC].&[1], [CD RSRC].[RSRC].&[2], [CD RSRC].[RSRC].&[3], [CD RSRC].[RSRC].&[4].
Is there any way, on the report services side, to capture an incoming report parameter, parse it, loop over the parsed values and format them?
I don't think there is, but I wanted to check before I go back to the developer and tell him he has to send in tuple lists.
Thanks,
Kathryn

Hi guys,
How can I pass a parameter used for the DataSet query? I'm using this DataSet file as data source of my .rdlc report for Windows Forms.
I've already done a .rdlc report to Web Forms where I passed the query parameter by ObjectDataSource.SelectParameters, but in Windows Forms this object was not created. I just hava the following created objects:
- despesaTableAdapter (from myDataSetTableAdapter)
- despesaBindingSource (Windows.Forms.BindingSource)
- RelatorioDataSet (from myDataSet)
- relatorioDataSet1 (from myDataSet)
Any help will be very appreciated.
Tks and rgds,

All,
I have two reports. One is the main/summary report and other one is drill through. When I pass the Start and End Date parameters from main to the drill, the original format of DateTime changes. For example, in main report the data is displayed for following date range:
4/7/2007 - 5/9/2007 (i.e 4 July 2007 to 5 Sept 2007)
which displays correct data.
However, when I click on the drill through link, it jumps to the drill through report but displays data for the following period:
7/4/2007 - 9/5/2007 (i.e. 7 Apr 2007 to 9 May 2007)
The reporting services is converting the value from one format to another of the report parameters when passing them from parent report to the drill through. When run individually, these two reports display data for correct date range. And you can imagine, the child report crashes with rsReportParameterTypeMismatch error if the start or end date had a day part greater than 12 (e.g 25/4/2007).
I can't understand what could be going wrong. All the parameters in both reports are datetime, so intrisically, it shouldn't matter even if the reporting services is converting or using different date formats as long as the data type remains the same. Is there a way to fix this and force the parameters to stay in the format they are provided in the main report?
Your help is much appreciated.
Thanks.
Hi friends,
I am developing reports using SQL Server 2005 Reporting service
I want to pass optional parameters to Report using dropdown
I filled dataset using EmpId and EmpName. and assigned this dataset to
query the values.
I checked properties for Report Parameters of Allow Null, Allow Blank values
Even i checked this properties, it enforces me to Enter some value for dropdown while running or previewing the report
I don't want to enforce the user that value must be selected.
In short, How we can able to pass multiple parameters which are not mandatory.
Pls reply me ASAP
Any suggestion is appreciated
Thanks in Advance.
