Hello Everyone,
I am trying to personalze my reports for each user, for example: Say I have a report which takes in userName as a parameter and then generates the report. Is it possible to use the same userName that the user used to login to the reporting services enviornment. This way the user don't have to enter their userName to see the report, it will be entered by default.
Thanks a lot,
-Rohit
Hi all, I was wondering if there is a way to capture the current users windows login and use that to personalize as report by displaying the users name at the top...or customizing report output by using the windows login as a query or report parameter.

Hi there,
Don't know if anyone has done this before -and I would really be wondered if not-:
I want to show a list of available reports to a user. Since we are working with SharePoint Portal Server 2003 the webparts can't be used (need MOSS 2007 or WSS 3.0), but I really need to be able to build a dynamically generated list and show it on a sharepoint page.
My first idea is to build a report (kind of menu). I am already this far:
to get a list of reports with the active directory groups and their mapped roles:
select u.UserName, c.Path, r.RoleName
from PolicyUserRole pur
left join Users u on pur.userID=u.userID
left join Roles r on pur.roleID=r.roleID
left join Catalog c on pur.policyID=c.policyID
order by u.UserName, c.Path, r.RoleName
I managed to link active directory via LDAP - linked server.
I even managed to get a list of users and groups. Unfortunately I cannot check whether a user belongs to a group (any idea?), since all of our security (on sql server) is managed by active directory groups this really is a problem.
Or am I completely wrong and is there another way to fetch a list of reports for a user?
Any help would be great!
Thanks,
Tom

My PC is in the domain group of SQL Server 2005 Reporting Service, so I can publish the reports. After the reports were published, I can viw the reports from ASP.NET application on the web server, but everyone else was prompted for login. Only my login can view the reports. What can I do to let others to open the reports with the same web application? Thanks.

Up to this point only two of use, both server administrators, have developed reports. Now we need to add two new report analysts to be able to develop reports in BIDS but limit their access to other server folders, etc. Our report source code is located at G:Visual Studio 2005 Source CodeProjects and all report folders, sln files, etc. are located under the Projects sub-folder. I have shared the Projects sub-folder and given read & execute / list folder contents / read / write / modify rights. They can see the report folders and sln files via BIDS or Explorer but get "access denied" when they attempt to execute one of them. Any thoughts on what I may be missing?
Hi Experts,

Hi
I'm new to SQL Reporting Services and I've been asked to create an online environment for a client where their customers can log on and view a report. The client wants to make sure that each customer can only see data that is relevant to them, and that other customer's information is hidden from whoever is logged on.
Can this be done through a username/password setup or is the solution more complex?
Thanks very much!
Hello,
I have some reports running CRM data. It's basically a sales dashboard that shows each user their pipeline values. Since each user has rights to see more than just the opportunities they own, I had a filter on the report in the SQL WHERE clause. It said
WHERE
@UserID = systemuser.DomainName.
The @UserID parameter's value was
=User!UserID, which brought back the logged-in user's domain name, which matched the field in my WHERE clause.
Now, in CRM 4.0, to eliminate the need for a VPN to access reports, everyone who accesses a report is logged in as NT Authority Network Service. Does anyone know if there's still a way to access the person's domain identity?
Thanks,
Andy

This is a pretty simple query that tracks 'yesterdays' apply clicks on our website.
SELECT MIN(A.hitDate) AS minDate, D.AffiliateName, B.ProdType, COUNT(DISTINCT A.ipAddress) AS TOTAL
FROM ArchiveApplyTracking A LEFT OUTER JOIN
Configuration.dbo.Affiliates D ON A.affiliateID = D.AffiliateID LEFT OUTER JOIN
Incoming C ON A.campaignID = C.ID LEFT OUTER JOIN
Configuration.dbo.ProductType B ON A.productTypeID = B.ProdNo
WHERE (A.hitDate >= DATEADD(d, DATEDIFF(d, 0, GETDATE() - 1), 0)) AND (A.hitDate < DATEADD(d, DATEDIFF(d, 0, GETDATE()), 0)) AND (A.deal = 1) AND
(A.ipAddress NOT IN
(SELECT ipAddress
FROM [Tracking].[dbo].ipTracking)) AND (B.ProdType NOT LIKE 'refused%') AND (D.AffiliateName LIKE 'ARROW%') AND
(B.ProdType NOT LIKE '%prequalify%')
GROUP BY D.AffiliateName, B.ProdType
ORDER BY D.AffiliateName
No problem there, that's fine.
But how can i put a simple date range interface on my published report so users can say "get me the stats from 04/09/2005 to 20/09/2005, which then runs the query?
Thanks for any help
Ideally, I'd like to have the reports use windows authentication, ie grab current user/password so long as user does not have to enter it manually. If that is not possible, then how do I make it so user does not have to enter this info manually? My theory is that I have IIS set up incorrectly for doing this, but I'm not familiar enough with either reporting services or IIS to find out.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I'm a beginner to Report Services, and have tons of questions.
Here's the first one:
if the reports are created based on the condition that the user selects, how can I create the reports with Report Services?
For example,
the user can select the fields that will be shown on the reports, as well as the group fields, the sort fields and restrict fields. So I would not be able to pre-create all possible reports and deploy them to the report server, and I think I should create the reports dynamicly based on what the user select.
Could someone tell me how to do it (create and deploy the reports)?
Thanks a million!

Hi,
I have some sensitive and non-sensitive info/fields in one of my reports. Is there a way to hide/show the info based on the logged in user? or do I have to create separte reports for each type of info like one for sensitive and another one for non-sensitive info.
Thanks inadvace for your help!
I have created some reports using Report Builder however they autorun with default values when selected in report manager, cant think many people would want this to happen. Is there a way of getting rid of the default values in RB or preventing auto execute in RM?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have deployed some reports on the reporting server, i have noticed that every one in the domain in which the reports are published can access the reports, except one user. when he tries to access the report he got the following error message or the blank report.
"An error occured during report processing"
"can no read the next data row for the data set dataset1".
Although this user has all the roles on the reporiting server kike browser,content manager etc.
i tried many things but still problem persists.
Can anyone tell me the exact reason for this ?

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 have an already published application running several MS SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services report.
I need a way to find from either the reporting services log or the application server (IIS) logs or windows log
to know the frequency of each report being used.
Based on this info, the business needs to know which reports are being used and to what extend?
How can I acheive this?
I have already got the IIS logs and it did not give the required info.
I have looked into the Reporting Services logs but it does not provide the info either.
Any help is appreciated

Hi Friends,
Could I migrate the reports which are developed on SQL 2000 to SQL 2005. If Yes then How ...
Could anyone explain me. How it works.
Thanks

My issue is with converting multi-value parameters:
In Crystal Reports, you can set a parameter to accept multiple vales (Discrete, Range or Discrete and Range).
As an example:
I have a database table with a column called ID.
I can create a parameter called param_id and set the options of the parameter to "Allow multiple range values".
With this setup, I can limit the result set of the report by comparing the param_id parameter to the ID column in the database. Because param_id is a multi-value range parameter, I can pass it the following data:
1 - 50
60 - 80
150 - 127
This will only return results within those ranges.
Does anyone know if SSRS provides this kind of functionality?
Thanks,
Patrick Conway
Is there a way to copy reports from other users "My reports" folder? I am logging onto the management studio reporting services using an administrative account and I am able to view the reports from all users' "My Reports" folder. But I am not able to export them as an rdl file. I am able to export reports from other common folders, but not from the "My Reports" folder.
The reason I need to do this is some of the users have created some reports in one environment and the reports are available in their respective "My Reports" folder. I need to move these reports to their corresponding "My Reports" folder in another environment.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks for your help.

I would like to know if there is a way to find out who changed a users roles/access WITHOUT using the audit function. For example, if a user account was created and given SA access then changed to read only, how can I find out who made that change? I tried searching for an answer, but kept getting no results. I'm thinking this may tie into the sys.sysusers view?
View 3 Replies View Related Hi,
I have several reports for users to view on our Intranet. After installation of SQL 2005 SP2 patch, I cannot delete user or user's authority from Report in Properties Tab. An error message was shown on the status bar. It indicated that JavaScript Error: 'Return' statement outside of function. Seems something wrong with the 'Delete' funciton in SQL 2005 after update. The other functions worked fine. Could you point me out how to fix it or need to install any updates / hotfix. Thanks a lot!

Hi, I'm new to SQL Express 2005.
I found information regarding : "Cannot open user default database. Login failed."on this forum but I think that in my case it's a bit different issue.
I have a website (ASP.NET 2.0) accessing DB, in the mean time Windows Service tries to update some data in the same DB (Service runs as NT AUTHORITYLOCAL SYSTEM). The second connection is rejected: "Cannot open user default database. Login failed.Login failed for user ....".
Problem occurs only when both: service and website are running at the same time. So service and website are running without problems when they are connecting DB exclusively.
My connection string is:
"Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename="|DataDirectory|spider-lab.mdf";Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"
I would be grateful if you can help me
