Here is my scenario
1. I have to use a ODBC driver which does not support sub query. So I am forced to use two datasets and link them together.
2. I cannot use Sub-Report because the sum from dataset 2 will be used in calculation in Dataset1
3. Also SubReport cannot interact with Main report
4. We Re-created the report in Crystal XI and we can have two datasets, link them and Subreport value can be accessed in Main report
5. We tested Custom method to get this value for every record in Dataset 1 and it is taking too much time.
6. I could not beleive we cannot link two datasets in RS 2005. I like to use RS 2005 but this limitation is forcing us to use Crystal
6. Before we make a decision I thought to post my question here. Is there anyway to link two datasets?
I have one tablix and this tablix has 2 parts(chart and table with numbers). Table with numbers uses Dataset1 and for chart I created another, 2nd dataset. How to get information from second dataset?
I need to compare two datasets on the same server and then display if there is a difference in some fields for the two datasets.How can I do that? Is there an example somewhere that I can use ?
Is there some way I can connect two datasets? Main issue is that I have to connect two tables from different databases and then display them in a report. Since these tables reside in different databases therefore I have one dataset for each table. While displaying the report I need to join both these datasets and display a report with data from both the tables.
Struggling to come up with an overall sum for each individual user when using the below code
SELECT Practice.ibvStaffCategorisation.StaffId ,Practice.ibvStaffTotalsCL2Y.Period ,SUM(Practice.ibvStaffTotalsCL2Y.ChargeableMinutes) AS Sum_ChargeableMinutes ,SUM(Practice.ibvStaffTotalsCL2Y.NonChargeableMinutes) AS Sum_NonChargeableMinutes
[Code] ....
As I am using union all it shows two values for each user, the problem is I am getting the data via lookup like below
I don't think I can use a Sum within a lookup so at the moment it is only bringing through the first value for each user but I would like it to bring through both.
Is there a way to do this within the dataset or via the query in the table?
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 to create tablix report using data from 2 datasets. The data source for one of the dataset, DataSet1 is Microsoft SQL Server and the data source for the other dataset, DataSet2 is Excel.
I have to pic 3 columns from DataSet1 and one column from DataSet2.
I am creating a dashboard. It has two charts. One will utilize 'calendar year' data and other utilizes 'Fiscal Year' data.
I have 'CY start date', 'CY end date','FY start date', 'FY end date', 'Reference Date' columns in my data set.
I have a report parameter of date type that the user selects. When the user selects the date, I have to display the corresponding 'Fiscal Year' data for the entire year.
My question is, how can i filter the data set based on 'FY start date', 'FY end date' field values when i have only one Date parameter.
How can i get these data set field values based on parameter.
I am not sure if this is possible or not, we have two datasets and each one has an additional calculated field which breaks the value JobBilledExVAT into three years.
So it reports for example how much we billed in May 2015, 2014 and 2013.
I have got the table to display this when reporting on one dataset by grouping by year
The datasets both look similar to this
SELECT Practice.ibvSalesByJob.JobBilledExVAT ,Practice.ibvSalesByJob.[Year] FROM Practice.ibvSalesByJob INNER JOIN Practice.idvJobType
[Code] ...
The calculated field is
=Switch(Fields!Year.Value = Parameters!Year.Value ,"15", Fields!Year.Value = Parameters!Pre1Year.Value ,"14", Fields!Year.Value = Parameters!Pre2Year.Value ,"13") The field I am looking to add together is below =Sum(Fields!JobBilledExVAT.Value)
If I do the below on the dataset associated with the matrix it displays the sum for each year correctly, I would however like to add the Sum(Fields!JobBilledExVAT.Value) from a different dataset (ABS1M) for the relevant year.
However this adds 2015, 14 and 13 from ABS1M and doesn't add them individually if that makes sense? With the calculated field it only shows Year under the main dataset heading not 15, 14 and 13 separately.
I was think of using LOOKUP however I don't know how this would work as 15, 14 and 13 are not displayed under the dataset.
In ssrs, I want to create an expression for the row visibility. But, the expression will contain 2 conditions from different 2 datasets (DealStarts & RowofTrendingVisibility). I have applied a solution from online, but got an error message is
"The Visibility.Hidden expression for the tablix ‘Tablix9’ contains an error: [BC30451] Name 'launchdate' is not declared. "
I think that there is a minor issue in my syntax.
=iif ((Last(MonthName("DealStarts"))=monthname(month(today())) or launchdate ("RowofTrendingVisibility")<Parameters!StartDate.Value),true, false)
I have table which has 5 columns(col1,col2,col3,col4,col5) very simple and some data .
I would like to create a tabular report datasets on the report like shown below with grouping on col1
like col1 some static text and dynamic text ------------------------ col1 col2 col3 col4 data data data data ------------------------ col1 some static & dynamic text ------------------------ col1 col2 col3 col4 data data data data ------------------------
Note I need to keep all the tables on the same page and when exported in excel they should come on same page sheet.
I want to use multiple datasets in a table and wants to do the full outer join on the two datasets in the same table. For example, my two datasets are:
I want to display a ssrs table like: Both the datasets are coming from different sources. So I cannot integrate them at sql query level.
I am trying to use one dataset rather than two and was hoping to then filter the data via a table or matrix.
This is my dataset
SELECT Practice.ibvStaffCategorisation.StaffId ,SUM(Practice.ibvStaffTotalsCL2Y.ChargeableMinutes) AS Sum_ChargeableMinutes ,SUM(Practice.ibvStaffTotalsCL2Y.NonChargeableMinutes) AS Sum_NonChargeableMinutes ,SUM(Practice.ibvStaffTotalsCL2Y.ChargeableAmount) AS Sum_ChargeableAmount ,SUM(Practice.ibvStaffTotalsCL2Y.NonChargeableAmount) AS Sum_NonChargeableAmount ,Practice.ibvStaffTotalsCL2Y.Period
[code]....
I would like to display two rows of data for each StaffId one representing the current period and the other all periods to date so the table would look something like below.
The above shows two separate StaffId figures the first line for each shows non chargeable and chargeable for the current period and the second line a total of all periods in that year.
I have managed to get the first row to display only figures from the current period by using a filter however it also applies the same filter to the second row in the group. I have also tried to group the rows but am drawing a blank.
My report has two data sets that hold inventory from two different departments.
ds_DeptA and ds_DeptB
I have a table, that pulls the DeptB status of DeptA record and displays it. This returns empty when the lookup fails to make a match, which is fine. Typically means DeptB does not have the record yet. I need to count these empty (null) feilds and populate it in a Text box outside of the table.
I just can't figure out the syntax with multiple datasets. I can't use the lookup expression as part of the count expression since the count expression is not contained in a table that has a dataset.
table: ds_DeptA fields: ID Name date_set_to_DeptB <<Expr>> =Lookup(Fields!ID.Value,Fields!DeptA_ID.Value,Fields!DeptB_Status.Value, "ds_DeptB")
I have two charts which are based on their own separate datasets. One chart shows data aggregated by MONTH, the other chart shows data aggregated by WEEK. I have put both of these charts inside a rectangle and set their visibility based on whether or not there is data returned by their respective datasets. This part is working just fine.
However, I have added a tablix to the report, deleted all columns and rows leaving only one remaining row/column so it looks like a textbox. This tablix is sitting on top of the two charts. The problem i'm having is that when both charts return no data and they do not show up in the report, the tablix still remains visible. I need to set the visibility but based on a condition between the two different datasets behind each chart.
Here's what I need: If ONE of the charts returns data, then I need the tablix to be visible. If neither chart returns data, then I need the tablix to be invisible. I'm trying to write an IIF statement comparing the two datasets but I get inscope errors. Isn't it possible to compare values which are contained in two separate datasets in SSRS?
Seems like something like the following logic should work:
IIF(CountRows("Monthly_DataSet") > 0 OR CountRows("Weekly_DataSet") > 0 , FALSE, TRUE)
Obviously the above expression will return syntax errors, but you'll get the point as to how i'm thinking. How can I set the visibility of the tablix based on these two charts?
We have a report that was created in SSRS 2008 R2 that has 3 tables with different datasets that share a common ID that I want to use to group them.
If we run the report passing only a single value for the grouped parameter then the report works perfectly. What we need is for this report to allow multiple values to be selected for this parameter and for the report to run as if the user had selected each value one at a time and run the report with page breaks in between. Currently, when we pass multiple selected values for the grouping parameter the report displays all values for table 1, then all values for table 2, then all values for table three as below:
Table 1:
Detail rows for Group Param Value 1 ... Detail rows for Group Param Value 2 ... Detail rows for Group Param Value 3 ... ....
Table 3:
Detail rows for Group Param Value 1 ... Detail rows for Group Param Value 2 ... Detail rows for Group Param Value 3 ...
But we want it to render like this:
Table 1: Detail rows for Group Param Value 1... Table 2: Detail rows for Group Param Value 1... Table 3: Detail rows for Group Param Value 1...
[code]....
The page breaks are needed so that when the report is exported to excel each individual report (by group param) will be on its own uniquely named tab.The report must export cleanly to excel and currently does for the single value passed.
I am trying to migrate my reports from SQL server 2000 reporting services 32bit to 2005 64bit. I am following the migration steps that MS specified. Restored my Reportserver and ReportserverTempDB databases Then I was using the configure Report services to upgrade these databases but I always end up getting the follwoing exception when I run the upgrade on the "Database Setup" configuration for 'ReportServerTempDB' database System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Could not locate entry in sysdatabases for database 'ReportServerTempDBTempDB'. No entry found with that name. Make sure that the name is entered correctly. at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.ThrowExceptionAndWarning(TdsParserStateObject stateObj) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.Run(RunBehavior runBehavior, SqlCommand cmdHandler, SqlDataReader dataStream, BulkCopySimpleResultSet bulkCopyHandler, TdsParserStateObject stateObj) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.RunExecuteNonQueryTds(String methodName, Boolean async) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.InternalExecuteNonQuery(DbAsyncResult result, String methodName, Boolean sendToPipe) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.ExecuteNonQuery() at Microsoft.ReportingServices.Common.DBUtils.ApplyScript(String connectionString, String script) at ReportServicesConfigUI.SqlClientTools.SqlTools.ApplyScript(String connectionString, String script)
It's driving me crazy, why is it looking for 'ReportServerTempDBTempDB' in the catalog instead of 'ReportServerTempDB'? Is it possible to migrate from 32bit to 64bit?
I'm using SQL 2008 Februar CTP and trying to use SSIS for Data Source as described in http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms159215(SQL.100).aspx. I've created SSIS package and preformed steps described in http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms345250(SQL.100).aspx (after fixing version to 10.0.0.0).
Now I got next error when trying to add SSIS DataSource (in Report Designer - Visual Studio):
Error messageThe data extension SSIS could not be loaded.
I'm attempting to obtain a cost effective solution for my existing customers to develop reports on their SQL 2000 Server installations using their Reporting Services 2000. With products like Visual Basic.NET 2003 becoming almost impossible to obtain, I have at least one customer who is running into a dead end.
One option possibly is the SQL Express with Advanced Services download, which has Reporting Services. My questions are as follows:
Can the report designer component of SQL Express Reporting Services be configured to connect to an external database (which would happen to be a SQL 2000 database) to establish its datasets? Does the resultant designed report end up in an RDL file? If the customer published this report via the Reporting Services 2000 Report Manager, would the report be able to run?
Sorry for asking a question like this that I could probably answer on my own, but my customer needed this answer yesterday. I have scoured the web and microsoft sites - and posted a question on the official SQL Reporting Services cateogy ... in an attempt to answer the basic question of how to design reports for Reporting Services 2000 in the absence of Visual Basic.NET 2003 (or other .NET 2003 tools) with no success.
I work in a big project and we will begin in using reporting services as the base technique for reports and I will be responsible for this part. but I have a problem I will discuss in the following:
Currently: We use currently devexpress reports and we have 2 languages(Arabic and English). the data in tables saved in two ways (Arabic and English). when the end user change the language of the web site the report data language changed when run it.
Example:
we have table with (ID, NAME_AR, NAME_EN, JobTitle_AR, JobTitle_EN). designed report will display(ID, NAME_EN, JobTitle_EN) . but the end user change the language of the system the report will
Our DBA has installed reporting services on a server and now in order to access the report manager, one has to be an Admin on that Server. I am guessing that there is a mistake in the configuration of Reporting Services. Usually it should allow anybody who was added to the roles in the properties section of the Report Manager, right? I have also added the users to the DB..
Also I am using Windows Authentication to access Report Catalog items (Reporting Services is installed on Server2) from a web Application(deployed on Server1) and displaying the report using report viewer. For some reason, server1 has to be in an Admin role on Server2 to access the report catalog/report. This is kinda strange for me as I don't want everybody to be an Admin on Server2. Can anybody please point in the right direction?
We have installed SQL Server 2005 with reporting services.When tried to open getting errors as below: how to avoid such errors See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.
ReportServicesConfigUI.WMIProvider.WMIProviderException: A WMI error has occurred and no additional error information is available. ---> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x8000000A) at System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ThrowExceptionForHRInternal(Int32 errorCode, IntPtr errorInfo)
I have some problem about reporting service add-in.
After I install reporting service add-in for SharePoint, reporting service menu does not appear in Application Management Tab in SharePoint Central Administration.
I try to uninstall and re-install again, it remain not work.
We've got a requirement to build the real time report. user can browse report at any point of time and need to see the latest data(stock market) in the report.
I've few options down...
1. Directly point to OLTP database as source and write stored procedure to show result set.
2. Replicate the database and write the SP's to reports. To avoid pointing directly to OLTP db.
3. To build the datawarehouse with dim & facts to show it in reports. I prefer this as a standard method, but this would have some latency depending on trasaction load which will differ from the requirement.
We are required to gather certain information regarding reporting services.
Which reports were requested, by whom , how long did they run for, what parameters were passed etc etc.
I see that the system tables do provide some of this information, is there a 3rd party tool or something we can use to gather all this type of information for us?
Hi, I have just install SQL 2005 SP2 and trying to get Window SharePoint Services V3 integrated with SQL 2005 SP2 reporting services. In SharePoint Central Administration, I select the Reporting Services Integration page and have setup the Report Server Web Service URL and Authentication Mode. I then goto Grant database access, specify the SQL server name, get promted for a username and password that has access SQL Reportserver and get the following error "The group name could not be found" Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks
We built our prod server [vm] with SQL Server 2008 R2 on Server 2008 R2. It works nicely. Then we made a copy of the VM and renamed it (so our test environment would be IDENTICAL to production). After that, SSRS was broken: I get "HTTP Error 503. The service is unavailable." I can't connect via http, or SSMS.
We have tried:
* Running SSRS config tool (several times)
* Running with/without the IIS Server Role
* Dropping & recreating the SSRS keys
* Recreating the ReportServer database, etc
* Checking all of the accounts, permissions, etc
* Running SQL Repair
* Going through the registry to fix any references to the machine's old name
* Uninstalling, reinstalling SSRS
* Completely uninstalling ALL of the parts of SQL Server 2008 R2, deleting all directories, removing references to SQL Server from the registry, rebooting, reinstalling everything.
None of this has worked. SSRS [R2] is still 503 on our test box.
the SSRS [NT] service seems to run, without error. The Event Viewer doesn't seem to be recording any errors. The SSRS logs say that the default URL is wrong, but we get the same error in Prod, and Prod works fine. The other SQL Logs say something about not being able to contact the service. However, as I said, the [NT] service seems to be working fine.
I think I've seen a similar post on a blog or on the forums - but it seems like this should be possible -
I have an MDX query - that works fine in SQL Enterprise Manager, and has my dimension members on columns, and my measures on the rows. When I try the same query in Reporting Services, I get the error:
"The query cannot be prepared: The query must have at least one axis. The first axis of the query should not have multiple hierarchies, nor should it reference any dimension other than the Measures dimension.. Parameter name: mdx (MDXQueryGenerator)"
Although it works when you pivot the view, I really need my data presented with the members on the columns and the measures on the rows. Another forum post mentioned using the SQL 9.0 driver, but I can't see this listed anywhere (the only one I see is the .NET framework Data Provider for Microsoft Analysis Services).
Here's what my query looks like -
SELECT { [Time].[Month].&[2006-09-01T00:00:00] , [Time].[Month].&[2006-10-01T00:00:00], [Time].[Month].&[2006-11-01T00:00:00], [Time].[Month].&[2006-12-01T00:00:00] } on COLUMNS, { [Measures].[Unique Users], [Measures].[UU Pct 1], [Measures].[UU Pct 2], } ON ROWS FROM [Cube]
I'm trying to create reports in RS2005 using AS2000 as my data source. I understand that if I use RS2005 on AS2000, I wont be able to enjoy the OLAP based parameters as in using AS2005. Does anyone know an easy way to easily use Parameters in RS2005 while still using AS2000?
I'm using Reporting Services 2005 SP1 and wrote some code to render reports server-side. My sample report has few parameters that must be passed so I pass these parameters with code.
byte[] report = rs.Render("PDF", "<DeviceInfo><Toolbar>False</Toolbar></DeviceInfo>", out extension, out mimeType, out encoding, out warnings, out streamID); </My code>
Actually, I have several more parameters but I've checked the collection and all the parameters I want are there and have values. Their names match those found in executionInfo.Parameters. But when I run my code I get the following error on Render():
<Error> "This report requires a default or user-defined value for the report parameter 'pClass'. To run or subscribe to this report, you must provide a parameter value. ---> This report requires a default or user-defined value for the report parameter 'pClass'. To run or subscribe to this report, you must provide a parameter value. ---> This report requires a default or user-defined value for the report parameter 'pClass'. To run or subscribe to this report, you must provide a parameter value." </Error>
I've double-checked and my parameter array does have the problematic parameter, I passed it a value but when I check executionInfo.Parameters I see that it's the only parameter that hasn't been give a default value after calling SetExecutionParameters(). So my parameters do seem to be passed but one seems to refuse getting a value. If I comment out the SetExecutionParameters() line I get, as expected a similar error but on another parameter (first one in the executionInfo.Parameters collection). So I'm left to beleive that the SetExecutionParameters() has some kind of bug as it works for all but one parameter. I've checked casing, spelling, tried passing phony parameters and from what I've seen I should be getting an error when I pass the parameters if I got something wrong.
