I created a SSAS cube with the dimension "date" (including dates from 2006 to 2007) and "service numbers" (including service number where customer can call in) and a measure "number of calls".
The I created a report with the MDX builder showing a date as column (i.e. 02/01/2007), service numbers as rows and number of calls in the middle. Easy :-)
Now I will add a column with a date one year before (i.e. 02/01/2006) and a column showing the difference between the two dates as a percentage value.
How can I create this in the graphical builder?
Or do I have to create the MDX query manualy?
Thanks in advance!

I am trying to add a calculated field / column in Report Builder when working with a Report Model built from anAnalysis Services Cube. I can create the calculated Field/Columns, but I get an error whenever I try to use it in a report.
Is there a way to create a report builder calculated column on report models built from a SSAS cube? Is this supported?
Does Report Builder handle many-to-many relationships within an SSAS cube correctly? I can't seem to get it to. Using Adventure Works, here's an example of the problem I'm seeing.
- Create a new report in RB, opening the Adventure Works DW model - Select one of the perspectives that includes the Sales Reason dimension (like Direct Sales) - Select the Sales Reason entity in the Entities list and put the Sales Reason Type attribute into the report (making Sales Reason the primary entity) - The Entities list will be reduced to show the Adventure Works Sales Reasons relationship (which maps to that underlying measure group) - If you select the Adventure Works Sales Reasons relationship, youll see the Internet Sales Order Details entity below it - If you select the Sales Order Details entity, however, youll only see the attributes that are in that dimension; you wont see any of the measures that exist in the measure groups that are related to it - Based on that fact, you cant get to any of the measures in the cube (since the Sales Reason dimension is related to the other measure groups only through M-to-M relationships)
Of course, it may be that I just don't understand how the auto-generated report model for the SSAS cube is exposing the relationships and the entities that correspond to the Sales Reason dimension, the Sales Reasons measure group (the intermediate measure group for the M-to-M relationships to the other measure groups), etc.
Anyone seen this before or know that this is defined behavior? Seems that for any SSAS cube that includes M-to-M relationships, Report Builder just won't work...
Developing a Retail cube using SSAS 2012. One of the dimension is DimCustomer with SCD type II. Each Customer can be a member or a non-member over a period of time. We have StartDt and EndDt to reflect the membership status.
eg: Joe is a member between 06-01-2014 and 31-08-2014 Joe is a non-member between 09-01-2014 and 01-31-2015 Joe is a member between 02-01-2015 and 04-30-2015 Joe is a non-member between 05-01-2015 and 12-31-9999
Without adding fact row of Joe for each day to reflect the membership status, I want to provide the ability to measure "Active Customers Count" on a given date. There are 2 million customers in the DimCustomer Table.
Has anyone been able to get time calculations to show up in Report Builder? I'm using the BI Wizard standard calculations for YTD & Period over period growth, but I can't figure out how to use them within Report Builder. They are available in Report Designer, however. I did find the info about assigning the calculations to a measure group. I tried that, but it didn't have any affect.
I create a Dimension Date using SSAS 2008 but when i execute the dimension and i go to see the result i have this result:the result is not sorted..what i need is having the result order by year i mean i have Calendrier 2020,Calendrier 2019 ...
I've been doing research on the web trying to find if it's possible to create a Report Model that is based on a Data Source that is NOT SQL Server and NOT SSAS.
Specifically I'd like to be able to build a Report Model on a Web Server (or multiple web services).
Does anyone have any information relating to this? Based on my research it looks like there's a few interfaces that need to be implemented (such as ISemanticModelGenerator, etc.).
I did find a post relating to using ODBC data sources for a Report Model and the recommended solution was Linked Tables in SQL Server or UDM in SSAS. Both cases don't look feasible for a Web Service-based Data Source.
I would like to build an SSRS report from two different cubes (SSAS 2005). These cubes are contained in two different SSAS databases.
To do this, i created a dataset for each cube throught MDX expressions. These datasets use common parameters defined in my report. Thus, i try to integrate in my report chart datas from the two datasets, but my chart only target one dataset.
Is it possible to create a kind of dataset view to join my two datasets ? Or is it possible to join the cubes from two different SSAS databases in an MDX expression to put all my datas in a single dataset ?
I have a question here for report model generated on top of SSAS 2005. If security has been defined in SSAS 2005 cube where RoleA only have access to certain dimension, is this security setting integrated with the report model and propogate down to the report builder when used where RoleA users have no access to dimension allowed?
I seem to have a problem creating a model for my AS cube through Report Manager.
I have set up the data source as follows:
Name: Gates Aust Business Intelligence
Connection Type: MS SQL Server Analysis Services
Connection String: Data Source=MANT4003;initial catalog="GAPL Sales Analysis"
Connect Using: Windows Interegrated Security
This part works, but when i go to generate the model, i get the following error in the browser:
"

For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors
In the reporting services log file i have the following errors:

I have tried searching the forums and cannot find anything really helpful. I have had one cube setup and a model generated before and all was workin, but i had to delete it and i recreated the SSAS cube from scratch.
My user account has admin rights on the cube and also on the servers.
Server is Windows 2003
Client is Windows XP.
Any one got anythoughts on this or how i can determine what is wrong.?
I never got an answer on this so I am reposting this issue. Also, please note that I have consistently reproduced this issue on multiple perspectives within and accross multiple cubes on 3 different SQL Server Instances. I have also had no problem with perspectives within Report Models that were not generated from an SSAS Cube.
Specifics:
=========
I have created a simple cube in BI Studio against an Oracle Relational Data Warehouse. In this cube I have created a perspective in which I have selected (included) only a small subset of measures and dimension. When I view this perspective on the Browse Tab of BI Studio, only the entities that were included in the perspective were available for report construction as was expected.
Next, I generated a model for this cube in Report Manager. Now here is the problem, I then opended the model in Report Builder and selected the same perspective from above, but all of the Entities in the cube were displayed including the fields I explicitely did not include in the perspective. I then looked at the .smdl file describing the Model and it looked like in the Perspective description section all of the cube's entities were included, even the ones that should not have been included. It seems as if the problem is ocurring durring the model generation. I also tried generating the model in Management Studio and it seems to be doing the same thing.
Any ideas on how to fix this? Could I be doing something wrong(probably)? I have to give a presentation soon and this is a big deal for the Project Stakeholders.
By the way, I am using the 180 Day Evaluation of Sql Server 2005 with SP2 CTP installed.
I have an SSRS report that gets its data from an SSAS cube, and it essentially displays a list of students and absences. Everything works fine.
But the users only want to see the top N students with the highest absences. For example, today they want to see the top 100, but during summer vacation, they only want to see the top 5.
Is there a way to add this parameter to the SSRS report? So if I select "5" from the dropdown parameter, it will show the top 5 absences.
The query that I use to populate the report is something simple:
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[Absences] } ON COLUMNS, NON EMPTY { ([Dim Date].[Date Key].[Date Key].ALLMEMBERS * [Dim Student].[Lte Cell Key].[Lte Cell Key].ALLMEMBERS ) } DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION, MEMBER_UNIQUE_NAME ON ROWS FROM ( SELECT ( STRTOSET(@DimDateDateKey, CONSTRAINED) ) ON COLUMNS FROM [Daily Cube]) CELL PROPERTIES VALUE, BACK_COLOR, FORE_COLOR, FORMATTED_VALUE, FORMAT_STRING, FONT_NAME, FONT_SIZE, FONT_FLAGS
I am trying to learn building SSAS tabular model. While following a tutorial I need to add a column to an existing table but for some reason the ADD Column option (insert column in other menu is also not appearing) is greyed out.
I have created a tabular model with VS 2013 Ultimate. I deployed the model several times and everything works great with Power Pivot.
One of the dimension tables, "Age", has an integer field that is null. I updated that column in SSMS to have values, processed the table in VS and the "Age" column now has integer values.
I deployed the model again, connected with Power Pivot, and the "Age" column still has not data. I refreshed the Excel spreadsheet several times, started a new one, deployed several times and there is still not data in the "Age" column even though it clearly exists in VS.
I opened SSMS on the Analysis Service and queried the table in question and it also shows no data in the Age column even though it is in the data table and the VS model.
I can't find anything different about this column than others that contain data. How can this be happening?
A Fact table <<Company Revenue>> 2 Dimension <<Month.Dim>> , <<Company>>
I have 4 company say (A,B,C,D) but i have record for only company A & D that too only for December month .
When I create a SSRS report out of the cube i want a matrix where all the company names to be displayed in the rows & all the months in the columns and company's revenue in data
What my report is displaying :
Company | December ------------------------------------------------------- A | 20000 ------------------------------------------------------- D | 3900 -------------------------------------------------------
what is needed :
Company | January | February | March | ........... | December ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A | | | | | 20000 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- B | | | | | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- C | | | | | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- D | | | | | 3900 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I am receiving the following error when I run the report builder query. I am able to successfully select the dimensions and measures that I am intrested in but when I run the report I get the error message.

I am testing this against both Adventureworks standard and enterprise cubes. Additionality I saw a post in this forum http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=368962&SiteID=1 that seemed related but I am using reporting services in sharepoint integrated mode so I am having a hard time trying to troubleshoot this.
I have a QA Deployment Date field that is being returned in a custom report I created. I also found a sample date range parameter:
What I want to accomplish:
I want to select a From and To Date and filter the report to only display the rows that have the QA Deployment Date within the selected range.
For example.. I want to select From Date (8/1/2105) and To Date (8/31/2015) and I only want to return only the results that have a QA Deployment date between that selected range.

I have 2 dates as input. The main date and reference date (Last date of previous year) of the main date. At the moment I manually insert the values for main date and reference date, but I only one to select the main date and automatically insert in the first column of the matrix report the reference date.
I have an SSIS package that moves data from SQL Server to an legacy Access database. In SQL Server, there is a date/time column that I need to split into a separate date column and time column in the access database. Initially I just created a derrived column for the time and set the expression equal to the source date/time column from SQL Server. Unfortunately, that just makes the date column and time column the same having the full date/time.
What expression can I use during a derrived column transformation to assign just the date to a derrived column and just the time to another derrived column?
I have three types of specific reports that i have to create with the input parameters (range) either
1: By date (rdl 1)
2.By Month (rdl 2)
3.By Year (rdl 3)
Is it possible ( or how do I ) to create just one report template ( one rdl) with the three sets of parameters ( hiding/invisible which ever two sets base on user selection) and the output of the report will display the desired type( either by year, month or date).
I ask this because its possible to create a drill down report from year down to date etc in report designer (vs 2005). Not sure if I can create one instead of three rdls and with the 'logic' built within that template.
I've got a report that is using a cube as a data source and I can't get the report to show all the data. Only data at the lowest level of the cube is displayed. The problem is that most of the data I'm concerned with is at higher levels. There's no problem with the MDX. I get the correct results when I run the query.
I'm using a table to show the results. I've also tried a matrix, but I get the same results. I'm using SSRS 2005 and SSAS 2000.
Anyone have experience with this? Am I missing something simple?
I want to compare two columns in the same table called start date and end date for one clientId.if clientId is having continuous refenceid and sartdate and enddate of reference that I don't need any caseopendate but if clientID has new reference id and it's start date is not continuous to its previous reference id then I need to set that start date as caseopendate.

The insert column I am trying to get into is a date type. The original state of the field is YYYYMM varchar. How to get this into the table.
I have a table here. I want find a way of getting the latest date, when the code is the same. If the Declined date is null. Then I still want the latest date. E.g. ID 3.
If the declined date is filled in. Then I want to get the row, when the Datein column value is greater then the declined date only.
I tried grouping it by max date, but i got an error message when trying this out. Against the code
WHERE MAX(Datein) > Declined
An aggregate may not appear in the WHERE clause unless it is in a subquery contained in a HAVING clause or a select list, and the column being aggregated is an outer reference. What do I need to do to get both my outputs working?
So my data column [EODPosting].[MatchDate] is defined as a DATE column. I am trying to SELECT from my table where [EODPosting].[MatchDate] is today's date.
Is this not working because GETDATE() is like a timestamp format? How can I get this to work to return those rows where [EODPosting].[MatchDate] is equal to today's date?
as you can see, the records have a 30minutes time interval. i need to create a query to know if there are missing records in the table. so basically the result should be this:
