Hi,
Hope someone can assist
Does Report Server allow access to Report Builder in an extranet setup? We intend to use the report builder functionality to prove basic report creation for users over the internet, these users would be outside or corporate network.
Is this possible? security issues?
many thanks

A Contractor has a list of Contracting Companies that he has worked for in his history.
For each row in the "Contracting Company" table, there is an Active Date and an Inactive Date. Each Contracting Company cannot have overlapping dates.
The last row in the table for that Contractor may have a null Inactive Date. That just means that he doesn't know when his contract will end.
In Report Builder, I can access the "Last Active Date", because there is a pre-built formula for "Last Active Date". However, whenever I access the prebuilt formula "Last Inactive Date" - I get the inactive date for the second-last row, because the last row has a null value for the Inactive Date! I want to get the Inactive Date for the last row - not the second last row!
How to do this easily? Thanks!
I'm attempting to grant rights to Report Builder as deployed as part of my TFS install. My problem is that I have to add my users to the builtinadmin group in order for them to see the report builder button on the SQL Server Reporting homepage & then have rights to launch the ReportBuilder click once app. I obviously do not want make users admins on the box, but I've tried adding them to all of the other groups having to do with SQLServer to no avail. How can I grant users access to launch the Report Builder app?

I am using the following expression to access a daily file.
"D:\importdata\peregrinedata\ACD_DATA_" + (DT_WSTR, 4) YEAR( GETDATE() ) + (DT_WSTR, 2)MONTH( GETDATE() ) + (DT_WSTR, 2) DAY( GETDATE() ) + ".txt"
output: D:importdataperegrinedataACD_DATA_2008123.txt
I need to have this file by current day -1. I've tried dateadd and can't figure out how to get it to work.
Thanks
Hi All,
We are currently having an issue with a Reporting Services deployment which is being accessed through Tivoli Access Manager (with a custom SSRS security extension).
When you try to launch Report Builder, we receive the following error when ClickOnce tries to validate the deployed app (Report Builder works fine when accessed outside of the Tivoli Access Manager environment):
ERROR DETAILS
Following errors were detected during this operation.
* [20/03/2008 2:49:35 PM] System.Deployment.Application.InvalidDeploymentException (HashValidation)
- File, ReportBuilder.exe, has a different computed hash than specified in manifest.
- Source: System.Deployment
Can anyone shed any light on what might be causing this?
All of the components (including the manifest) are downloaded to the client correctly so the authentication seems to be working and it works outside of TAM so there is no issue with the files on teh server having changed etc. either.
Thanks.
Has anyone encountered this before?
My colleague opens up an SSIS package with variables, many of which use expressions built with the Expression Builder. She cannot bring up the Expression Builder by clicking the ellipsis (...) in the "Expression" Property of the Property Window, regardless of whether "EvaluateAsExpression" is set to True or False.
I can open up this same package and use the Expression Builder just fine. Any ideas?
Apologies if this has been answered already, I did many searches to try to find the solution before posting here.
Thanks much!

I am setting up the SQL2005 reporting service to let users build their own reports on the web. I'll provide them with pre-built report models. We have concern with SQL database performance by allowing users to execute huge reports. The problem that I have is: If I give the users permissions to build report they'll have access to the report's Properties | Execution page, which allows them to disable the report execution timeout. Is there a way for me to allow them build reports while restrict them to access the report execution timeout settings?
Please advise. Many thanks.
Hi,
When i select datasource in Report Builder, i am able to see all the available DataSources.
Eg: I have selected one datasource from the list and which has 3 tables(table1, table2, table3) associated to that datasource.
when i drag and drop table1 fields to report, i am not able to see the other 2 tables(table2 & table3)
Is there any property or relationship do i need to maintain?
Thanks,
SR.
Also i'm kinda new to using SQL Express / MS SQL since i've been a long time MS Access Fan heheHow do you deal with autonumbers?Say i have a Customer table with the following fieldscust_id - primary key - [ data type ? autonumber ? ]cust_name - textcust_phone - text something like that. correct?then next step would be to say build an INSERT INTO SQL statement to add my new recordI recalled in web matrix you could build and test your own SQL Queries
before pasting them into your code. How do you achieve this in VWD 2005?Thanks!

View 9 Replies View RelatedGood day,
I would like to know if there are any good MDX query builder tools out there. The one that is shipped with AS does not suffice in that it does not support more than 2 axes. Also if there are any are there any that make life a little easier in that they are drag and drop and all but create the statement for you?
I need to create a matrix in SSRS using cubes and in doing so need to write MDX queries, not my strong point. Are there any tools that can help me "auto create" the statement with drag and drop functionality?
Thanks in advance
Hi people!I'm looking for an SQL query builder application that helps me constructSELECT queries with full respect of underlaying relational model.

View 1 Replies View RelatedTrying to type a define formula in report builder and keep getting a (not valid: if) statement. I have to count field columns and i'm trying to sum one if there is an amount in that column instead of getting the sum of both columns.
here is the current formula that i have that is not working If(Loan Funded Month=0,0,Loan Loan Amount)
Writing this formula but have a question on it...IF(AND(DATEONLY(LOAN FUNDED DATE)>=#12/1/2007#,DATEONLY(LOAN FUNDED DATE)<=#12/19/2007#), SUM (LOAN AMOUNT),0)
1) What can I change #12/19/2007# to use the current date and not have to change it daily?
2) When I run this report the report doesn't sum the total amount of all the loans in one line but it puts all the loan amounts on indiviual lines. What can i change to make all the loan amounts to add together and in one line?
Is there a way to build a total box at the bottom of a report and format it to grab certain data to total? Not a text box.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi. I have just started to use Report Builder and I have a question about how you add parameter values to a title on the report.
For example, I have a parameter set up for a range of dates. But I would like the title to show these parameters e.g. Title should display "Sales from 01/05/2007 to 10/05/07" where the dates on the title are the parameters I have chosen.
I can easily do this through Visual Studio, but just wondering if Report Builder had the capability of doing this?

I have successfully deployed a standard Report (i.e. non Report Builder) to our Report Server using a Shared Data Source to an iSeries Access for Windows Driver. The Data Source has the following properties:
Type : OLEDB
Connection String : Provider=IBMDA400.DataSource.1;Data Source=AA;Initial Catalog=AA;Default Collection=MITDTA;Catalog Library List=MITDTA,MVXBDTA
The Report works perfectly using this connection.
However when I try to run a Report Builder Report based on a Report Builder Model that uses this same shared connection I get the following error:
An attempt has been made to use a data extension 'OLEDB' that is not registered for this report server.
----------------------------
Cannot create command for data source 'dataSource1'.
----------------------------
An error has occurred during report processing.
Any ideas?
For the models I have created, there are tables (X and Y) which have multiple rows per emplid (which is the key that links these tables to the other tables). I want to be able to join on those tables in report builder and have the results only return only the most recent records in the table. Do you know how to do this and can you show me?
I am attempting to create a report using the report builder. I can see the button for the report builder on my report server but nothing happens when you click it. I also attempted to go directly to the url but once again nothing.
Finally, I attempted to run the application directly from the file structure and in doing so there I got the following errors. Could not find file 'reportbuilder.chm.deploy'. I created a junk text file with the same file name and attemted to run the app again and this time I got a error that said: Could not find file 'reportbuilder.exe.deploy'. After that I created another junk text file and named it the same as that.
This is part of the errors that I recieved. This doesn't suprise me based on the hack I did to get to this point. Below is a summary of the errors, details of these errors are listed later in the log.
* Activation of Reporting ServicesReportServerReportBuilderReportBuilder.application resulted in exception. Following failure messages were detected:
+ Exception occurred loading manifest from file ReportBuilder.exe: the manifest may not be valid or the file could not be opened.
+ File ReportBuilder.exe is not a valid Portable Executable (PE) file.
+ PE file does not have enough data.
I'm not sure what the overall issue is and why these files would be missing. Any guidance in relation to this situation would be great. Thanks.
OK so I've developed quite a few reports using report server projects. Now I'd like to see what is available to the end-user after I, as a developer, am sick to tears of making and customizing reports. So I went to Report Builder.
I open Report Builder and see the list of my five entities. Then when I drag and drop a field from one of the entities to the report designer, ALL of the four other entities DISAPPEAR!
Can you not design a report in Report Builder using fields from multiple entities? The design of our databases have much to be desired, so that would make using Report Builder impossible...
Am I missing something here?
I'd like to integrate SQL CE 3.5 into a platform builder image(using PB 5 targeting CE 5), but I don't see it in the catalog. Is it currently possible to Sysgen an image with 3.5? Can I somehow deploy the files from the .cab files? Sorry if this has been answered before, I searched around a bit but didn't find anything.

Does anyone know how to get the column markers to show up in the report designer? MSDN documentation indicates that they can be used to freeze columns in the report. I can't seem to get them to appear.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Is Report Builder capable of building any complex reports that Visual Studio Report Designer can build?
What are the limitations of using Report Builder with SQL Server Databases?
Hi,
I have just installed Sql Server 2005 Express Adv. Services and
found out that the Report Builder is not accessible.
Is it not possible at all to get Report Builder together with
Sql Server 2005 Express?
If not, are there any other way to create reports instead of the
Report Designer in Business Intelligence Development Studio?
Kind Regards,

Hello:
Does anybody know of an easy way to give lots of end-users of MS CRM 3.0 permission to create reports using the Report Builder? Heck, what's an efficient way to give lots of non-admin type users (regardless of CRM) the capability to use the Report Builder? Right now it seems that every Windows user has to be granted rights on an individual basis.
Based on various documentation, it appears that assigning the Report Builder role is meaningless unless users are defined under Site-Wide Settings as being either a System Administrator or System User. I know CRM creates a user called ReportingGroup, but assigning it a site-wide setting of System User with a Report Builder role doesn't flow to the individual members of ReportingGroup.
According to some other documentation I came across, ReportBuilder is a clickonce app that essentially needs to verify that the actual individual Windows user is permitted to access ReportBuilder. Given this fact, then it would seem to me that granting a group appropriate permissions to Report Builder is pointless.
In general, I'm failing to find solid information on SSRS2005 security and CRM 3.0, specifically as it relates to Report Builder permissions.
Does anyone have recommendations? Thanks.
HI, in a lookup component, when I want to use the query builder, it will show tables from a different connection manager than the one I picked for being the lookup source. E.g. connection manager A points to a schema that contains table1 and table2 and connection manager B points to a schema that contains table 5 and table 6.
When I configure the lookup component to use connection manager B, I still see connection manager A tablles; isntead of seeing table 5 and 6 I see table 1 and 2.
Am I missing something?
Thank you for your help,
