One of our Sales Reps is having issues with a report I've made and as far as I know he's the only one (Out of about 50) who has had this issue. He's running IE 7. What happens is he'll enter in the parameters and run the report and it works fine. But when he goes to change the dates he entered as parameters and then clicks "View Report" again to run the report again, the browser just redisplays the same results and doesn't even generate a new report. It appears as if the browser has cached his previously ran report and then just redisplays it instead of going back to the server and re-generating the report. Has anyone seen this before or have any ideas? I appreciate it.
I am working on reports in SSRS 2008 (not R2)... There are some reports with parameters that are hidden when the report is accessed through normal URL using ReportViewer.asx..The thing is that these hidden parameters need to be visible when the report is accessed using SSRS Report Manager.
I have a report parameter named "Schools" which display a list of schools. For example, Alo elementary school, Balo middle school and Calo high school.
When "Alo elementary" is selected the report only display students from that school along with other assessments data fields. same goes for other schools too. But I want to display different data fields for "Calo high school" when it is selected. It is not currently possilbe becasue I am using the same template for all types of schools. There some fields only should be displayed for "Calo high school" but not for any other type of schools.
I can accomplish this by creating two separate report, one for "Calo high school" and the other for other schools. But I want to accomplish this just by creating one report. So when "Alo elementary school" is selected it displays report with certain fields and when "Calo high school" is selected then it displays same fields as "Alo elementary school" but as well as some other fields too in the report. Is this possible? Need help.
I want to Change parameter position in SSRS report.I need Start Date and End Date Parameter at same column so client can easily select Start Date and End Date.I have tried a lot but not succeed.
How Can I change the position of Start Date and End Date.I can't change order of other three parameter Select Institutions, Select Author and Course Pack Names parameter because they are internally related to each other(forward dependencies are there).
I have a package that has many containers that execute in sequence.
If any container fails the package does not fail as the subsequent containers must run.
However if containers fail i do not want to rerun the entire package. Checkpoint restartibility only allows you to start from where your package failed, however my package will not fail and i do not want to start from where it failed but only rerun the containers that failed.
Is this possible ? Can one maybe run only certain containers in a package through dtsexec or another command line tool?
I'm very new to using SSIS. I have a large number of SQL databases (archived .mdf/.ldf files) with data that needs to be imported into one giant database. My problem is that half of the databases are missing a column that was introduced in a newer version of the database schema and when my package executes my data flow task it errors out. I basically get a message stating that it cannot prepare any statements because the SQL command that I am using is trying to select column data from a column that doesn't exist.
I figured that I could set the OLEDB Source inside of my Data Flow to have a Data Access Mode = SQL command from variable. The variable bound to the component is called "MySelectQuery" and is initially set to my "new format" query. From there I could create an event handler for the OnError event of the Data Flow Task, switch value of "MySelectQuery" to equal the "old format" query and rerun the Data Flow Task.
I'm not sure how to accomplish restarting my Data Flow Task after changing "MySelectQuery" in the OnError event. I just tried setting up the package to use CheckPoints but it doesn't seem to be working right for me. When I restart the package it starts over even though there is a checkpoint file that seems to have captured the state after the failure.
Hello, since a couple of days I'm fighting with RS 2005 and the Stored Procedure.
I have to display the result of a parameterized query and I created a SP that based in the parameter does something:
SET ANSI_NULLS ON SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON CREATE PROCEDURE [schema].[spCreateReportTest] @Name nvarchar(20)= ''
AS BEGIN
declare @slqSelectQuery nvarchar(MAX);
SET NOCOUNT ON set @slqSelectQuery = N'SELECT field1,field2,field3 from table' if (@Name <> '') begin set @slqSelectQuery = @slqSelectQuery + ' where field2=''' + @Name + '''' end EXEC sp_executesql @slqSelectQuery end
Inside my business Intelligence Project I created: -the shared data source with the connection String - a data set : CommandType = Stored Procedure Query String = schema.spCreateReportTest When I run the Query by mean of the "!" icon, the parameter is Prompted and based on the value I provide the proper result set is displayed.
Now I move to "Layout" and my undertanding is that I have to create a report Paramater which values is passed to the SP's parameter... So inside"Layout" tab, I added the parameter: Name allow blank value is checked and is non-queried
the problem is that when I move to Preview -> I set the value into the parameter field automatically created but when I click on "View Report" nothing has been generated!!
I had thought that this was possible but I can't seem to figure out the syntax. Essentially I have a report where one of the parameters is populated by a stored procedure.
Right now this is easily accomplished by using "exec <storedprocname>" as the query string for the report parameter. However I am not clear if it is possible to now incorporate User!UserID as parameter to the stored procedure. Is it? Thanks
I have a report parameter called para1 which is a drop-down list and what I want to do is display another report parameter based on the para1 selection.
So for example, para1 contains a, b, c choices. if a user selects b, I would like para2 to display but if the user selects a or c, I don't want the para2 to display.
I'll go to a dataset, open up the query designer, add a new parameter, then refresh the fields, but the parameter won't be added as a report parameter. If I go to the dataset properties under the list of parameters, the value in the dropdown will be blank. However, sometimes this will automatically add.Â
Is this a bug in Visual Studio? How do I get around this?Â
I have created a menu report listing available reports and am setting the Jump to settings of each text box in the list to take the user to the relevent report. But I am having a problem setting up drill down to reports with multivalued parameters.
What I want to happen when the user drills down is for the report to open up with no parameter values selected. This works for single value parameters where I have set Null as the default value. But I have not been able to figure out how to do this with MVPs. Does anybody know if this is possible?
As a workaround I have been using Jump to URL (rather than Jump to report), which has no problem opening the report without having to pass any values for the MPV. But I do not like using this as I use different DEV/UAT and PROD environments so would have to amend the URL for each environment.
Seems like this should be possible... Any idea?
Cheers, Mike
PS: I should add I can Jump to reports with MVP without specifying a parameter in development studio but not when the report is published.
OK, I'm pretty sure that the answer to my questions is "no", but the boss is pushing, and I thought I'd double check.
I want the selection of one report parameter to decide what shows up for another report parameter. Specifically in my case it has to do with dates. I have narrowed the results down to monthly dates, meaning that the starting dates always start with mm/1/yyyy and the ending dates are always mm/31/yyyy (for a 31 day month).
The boss wants the ending dates to always be >= the month of the starting dates. So, if the user choose 1/1/2007 for starting, the minimum ending date would be 1/31/2007, etc.. Since the parameters are loaded at report initiation, and SSRS isn't really event driven, I didn't think this was possible. I just wanted to make sure before I tell the boss that it's not. Please advise.
Is it possible to turn a server report created using report builder (with all the smdl and dsv stuff) into a report that is viewable using the Reportviewer ASP.Net control in _local_ mode? I need this because I'm trying to replace the datasource used in creating the report by another one for viewing the report.
hi, I have a dropdownlist parameter like Today, 1 week ago, 2 weeks ago and I have 2 datetime parameters. What I want is when I select 1 week ago in the dropdownlist parameter I want other date parameters to be today-7 and today respectively. Is that possible?
I have a fairly complex report that was given to me that was hard coded for single parameters. There is a dropdown for each market (created from a query in SSRS). The users have to run for each market each week.
Is there a way to use this report as a Sub-report inside a list of a master report and then use a mult-value parameter?
I want this multi-value parameter to build the values for the list and then run the "sub-report" for each value.
I am extracting RS reports through a WebService: report = execService.Render("EXCEL", null, out extension, out mimeType, out encoding, out warnings, out streamIds);
Some works fine but some are generating the following SoapException:
Error during processing of €˜ReportParameterTime€™ report parameter. ---> Error during processing of €˜ReportParameterTime€™ report parameter. ---> Error during processing of €˜ReportParameterTime€™ report parameter. I set required parameters to their default values. In this specific report I have two required parameters: 1: ReportParameterTime, String 2: ReportParameter1, String
I set them to their default values (ReportParameterTime to "[Czas].[Kalendarzowy].[Rok].&[2007]" - means Time Calendar Year 2007) but I am getting the exception above. I set parameters using this code:
Where parameterValues is a List<ReportExecution2005.ParameterValue>.
When I am using Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ReportViewer the report is generated without any problems. I can see one parameter to choose: "Kalendarzowy" (means adj. Calendar) and can select years, the default value is "2007".
What am I doing wrong and how can I fix this error ? Does anybody know ?
Hi, I'm having problems navigating from one report to another one if the second report has a multi-valued report parameter. When I navigate to the second report, I don't pass any parameters, but I get an error "parameter is missing a value" for the multi-valued report parameter. I have it setup as allow "multi-value" and "blank value". Any idea what the issue might be? Thanks.
I am designing a report which will be used under the subreport control of a master report, now i am using a stored procedure for the subreport which has two parameters.
In the subreports dataset parameters tab, how can i mention the master reports columns, since i do not see the master reports columns here. since it is a different report.
If i use a hardcoded select query then i can just say
select address, city, state, zipcode from customer where (customerid = @customerID)
but i am using a stored proc. how to define the parameters under datasets parameter tab.
Hello. I have a gridview that is connected to a sql datat srource witch gets a few columns to populate the GV with. I also have a drop down list where i enable the user to fill the gridview with the values that only match a specific category. What iv done is that i have a selected index changed event on my drop down list that does the following.string kategori = DropDownListKategori.SelectedValue.ToString(); Label1.Text = kategori; SqlDataSource1.SelectCommand = "SELECT [ARTNR], [ARTTYP], [AKTIVITET], [DATUM], [KUND], [PLATS], [KOMMENTAR] FROM [ARTIKEL] WHERE [ARTTYP] = @ARTTYP"; SqlDataSource1.SelectParameters.Add(@"ARTTYP", kategori); SqlDataSource1.DataBind(); Now when i launch the webpage and select a category (kategori) the gridview chanes and displays only the values that match that category but when i slect a new category Visual Studio throes me the following. The variable name '@ARTTYP' has already been declared. Variable names must be unique within a query batch or stored procedure. I thought that the parameter would get a new value but aparently when its set i cant declare a new value inside. What id like to know is how i can modify the above code so i can pass a new value to my select as soon as the drop down changes.
Hi I have below sql procedure CREATE PROCEDURE Qty @make as nvarchar(32)
AS select department as category from tblproducts where department = @make GO
Parameter (@make) will get the value from asp.net page
My Question: Is any possibilities to change the value of parameter when the procedure trigger. Examlpe like below
If @make = 'Sealed Lead Acid' then I need to pass parameter to the database as 'SLA' elseIf @make = 'Photographic' then 'Multimedia' elseif @make = 'cctv and accessories' then 'security'
and so on. I only have six categories. Please help
I read the Tang and Lennan's book 'SQL Server 2005 Data Mining'. It frequently says about changing the value of the algorithm's parameter. I tried changing values for MINIMUM_PROBABILITY in one occasion. However, the dialog box refuses to change the value; for any of 'Value', 'Default', and 'Range'. Similar thing happens when I tried to change the value.
What I can do is delete the parameter, then add it again. Even so, I can only supply the value, not the default value and range (of values).
What happen? Again, is this because I'm using evaluation copy?
I have a report parameter textbox in my SSRS report which has the parameter properties as "allow null value" and "allow blank value" checked.
How I can ensure that when the value is entered in textbox, it should accept any character ie. The SQL code I should write so that all the characters inputted via the report parameter are accepted.
I have created an ASP.NET website with a ReportViewer on. The report renders fine, but when I change one of the parameters (manually), the report seems to invalidate itself and a blank while area is drawn. I would like the same behaviour as in the WinForms variant, where rhe rendered report remains the same until the 'View Report' button is pressed.
I have couple of paramters with operator 'range(inclusive)' in my report(Agains datacube), and I always get failure when I choose value with them. here's a example( 3 such parameters on my report).
...
From date To Date
...
From age To Age
...
From Salary To Salary
@salary is the last one.
when i choose a value for 'From Salary' or 'To Salary' from the dropdown list, it runs correctly. But if I choose value for 'from age' or 'To age' or 'From Date' or 'To Date', it fails due to
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
Query execution failed for data set 'DimTimesheetTimesheetNumber'. (rsErrorExecutingCommand)
Range operator ( : ) operands have different levels; they must be the same.
BTW, all the default values for these parameters are 'all', since it allows only 'all' to select when I set up the parameters, and I tried to change the default value, but it caused errors about the parameter dependency.
I'm using report with a date parameter (user enters a date) and all transactions before that date are displayed. I don't know how to set parameter date format on the displayed report to dd/mm/yyyy.
If it's not a parameter I usually use sql " convert(varchar(10),datefield,103)" but don't know how to use this with parameter.
