We have a rather large query that takes time to run between each data-driven instance. Is there a way to only send out the first email after the last subscription has finished processing? Any advanced input on data-driven subscriptions .
View 0 RepliesI am running RS 2012 installation and everything worked until few days ago. Now the subscriptions would not even run. When I configure new ones, after the time passes, there is not error message, not even a sign it ran.

There is a stored proc sp_send_dbmail but the formatting is not very good.
I have been using database mail for quite a few years now. I started using it with SQL Server 2005 and then it worked fine. Then we went over to SQL 2012 and the problems started. At first I could not get any e-mails out and read a post by Microsoft that a patch needs to come out but not available yet. That was in 2012. Presumably the patch came out with windows updates and my DB Mail started working. Now, however, I have the problem that some e-mails do get sent but the majority failed.
I use this so that whenever a user captures certain data to update a person's status on the database then an automatic e-mail will be sent to that person to inform them of their status at this company.
Hi
I migrated my system from SQL2000 to SQL2005, now my MDX reports don't want to work with the data-driven subscriptions. The SQL reports run fine.
Any help, comments, or even suggestions will be very welcome.

Is it possible to copy an existing Data Driven Subscriptions and make some minor changes?

I am using Reporting Services 2005 locally for testing purposes and also on a production server. Locally, I can create data-driven subscriptions, but not on the server. The only difference I can think of between my local test environment and the production server is the versions of SQL server database. Locally, I am using SQL server 2005 but on the server I am using SQL server 2000 (but with Reporting Services 2005). Can the version difference be the reason for not being able to use data-driven subscriptions?
Note: I have followed various guidelines and walkthroughs that describe how a data-driven subscription is created, i.e. stored credentials on the report server and such should not be the problem.
Operating systems: locally; Windows XP. Server; Windows Server 2003.
Thanks!

hi all,
i built my report with BIDS, configured my datasource and report. then i deployed it. on http://localhost/reports, I to go to the Report, but under "subscriptions", I don't see the "create data driven subscriptions" button.
however, under properties/datasources of my report, I clearly configured the
"Credentials stored securely in the report server"-setting.
Did I forgot something??????
Thx
Hello,
View 13 Replies View RelatedI am trying to go through the MS tutorials on creating Data-Driven Subscriptions.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms169673.aspx
I have followed the steps multiple times but when I go to add the Data-Driven Subscription, the option is disabled. The report's datasource is setup to use stored credentials and the server Mail is setup. Is there another prerequisite that I'm missing?
I have problem with using a data-driven subscription on a report with subreports. It works fine when I remove the subreport and generates error even when I add a subreport which only consists of one textbox.
I just was curious to know if using data-driven subscription on a report with subreports is supposed to work?
Thanks,
hi guys,
I have created data-driven subscriptions on top of the existing reports on my development server.
I have same reports on QA's report server but without the DD subscriptions.
Is there an easy way to migrate data-driven subscriptions to QA report server or the only way to do is create each subscription manually?
Thankskev
First a bit of background.
We use the Windows-logon to authenticate en identify the user. With this logon we check within most of our reports what a user is allowed to see.
Depending his level or geographical location he is allowed to run reports on one to all sites. He can selects the sites from a Multiple Select box. This works fine.
Now, we want to use data-driven subscriptions, I understand why we can't use this parameter, but how do you people deal with this kind of configurations.
I would prefer not to 'double' the reports in a normal and a subsciption version .....
Hi
I have been asked to move our entire system over from SQL2000 to SQL2005, i eventually got our database and Cubes over to 2005 and converted all my reports to 2005 and deployed them successfully on RS2005
All the subscriptions have been made and they seem to work when i click to view them. Although when i create a DDS for all my reports to run then they fail. Now i've got over 5000 reports to build and i'm definately not going to create each report manually. My SQL Reports huild successfully, it just seems to be the MDX Reports with a problem, i;ve checked my stored procs and they seem fine, i've even seen the [Clients].&[All.Clients] difference from SQL2005 ---->&<------ that is not in SQL2000.
If someone has, or has had the same problem before would you please help me. Any advice or suggestions would be more than welcome.
Kind Regards

I am trying to find a reference for a client that lists the fields available to be substituted into a data driven subscription from the query, along with the expected data types.  For example, the field on whether or not to include a link to the report seems to be expecting a bit data type.I have searched and can't seem to find anything.  I guess I could walk through the interface and try different data types, but if  a list exists, that would be better.Â

Running Report:
Hello folks,
Does anybody have experience with e-mail distribution using Data Driven Subscriptions?
I want to build the following:
I have a table with names and e-mail addresses of people in my data warehouse. This table changes over time, more people will be added and data (for example e-mail addresses) can change.
I made 1 report that I want to mail to all the people in the table. This report contains 1 parameter; the e-mail address of a person.
So basically it€™s quite simple: I want to e-mail all the people in the table a personalized (by the parameter) report each month.
Can anybody tell me how I can achieve this with SSRS 2005(SSEE)? I know how to make a data driven subscription but how can I make one pending on the data in a table?
Any help would be appreciated. I will write a blog about this when I've done it so your input will not get lost.

I am looking for a good tutorial on how to set up Data Driven subscriptions through the SharePoint 2012 version of SSRS. I am needing to set up a Data Driven subscription that uses one report, but sends out the specific portion of the report to the appropriate recipients. I have used the information located at URL.... but it doesn't seem to provide all the steps needed to schedule the reports needed. It focuses around setting up the reports to go to shared folder locations. I need something around setting it up to go to email recipients.Â

Hey!
DDS triggers 3 - 4 times on Report Servers with 15 mints apart..any ideas?
I've got an SSRS report that is set up using a data-driven subscription to supply input parameters to the stored procedure that is called to generate the report results.
I was wondering if there is any way to specify the execution processing method (running the reports in parallel or serially). The subscription that we have set up appears to be running all of the reports in parallel which is causing massive load on our servers.
Thanks.
I have researched this question and so far have found very different opinions as to how or if it is possible.I have created 2 Data-driven subscriptions in SSRS. 1 for our sales persons and another for our managers reports. For the salespersons report, the solution works brilliantly as expected and I can appreciated the increased simplicitly for having 1 subscription to drive reports to a sales staff of over 100 folks.One the other hand, I can't seem to grasp the significance of this type of solution for the Sales managers when they have multiple salespersons that report to them.
Apparently, SSRS 2008 has provided no practical solution for this scenario that would be easily implemented in a Data driven subscription.Since I can't find a way to pass in muliple integer values that represent each of the salesreps for a single manager, I am stuck with potentially sending multiple reports for each of the Sales Reps residing under a single manager. Not very elegant or useful as I'd hoped for using Data driven subscriptions. I have even changed the parameter datatype to string and used something like:
paramSalesPeople = substring((SELECT ( ', ' + CAST(territoryid AS VARCHAR(2000)))
FROM Reports..SalesForce t2
WHERE t1.SalesManagerID = t2.SalesManagerID
ORDER BY SalesManagerID
FOR XML PATH( '' )), 3, 1000 )
To create a comma-delimited list of values for the parameters in effort of generating 1 (ONE) record per Manager. But the Data Driven Subscription fails miserably.So the question, Is it or is it not possible to have multiple values passed as a single parameter to a data driven subscription to consolidate the number of required reports into one. If not, it would seem that it should be possible since it can be done from the reports parameters drop-down menu.I have read someones recommendation to script the multi-valued parameter which seems to defeat the intent of the term "Data Driven' Subscription if I have to hard-code this logic into a script.
I am running the following ENTERPRISE version of SQL Server, I am admin on the box and do not have the New data-driven Subscription showing up on the Subscription tab.
Does anyone have any ideas why?

I have a single data driven subscription that is a batch of 250 subscriptions running on SQL Server 2008 R2. All the parameter values for the report are sourced from a database table. During the execution of the data driven subscription 5 of those subscriptions failed due to timeout error.
Final Status as shown on Subscription screen "Done: 250 processed of 250 total; 5 errors."
The SSRS log file has the subscription GUID which is a single record in the reporting server database tables. How can i identify the individual failed subscriptions? Is there an easy way or a work around that i should implement to identify the failed subscriptions?
I have a job that emails out shipment notifications at the end of the day to our customers. The problem I have is I don't understand why the same email is sending out twice within a minute of each other when the job is only scheduled to run once. If I take the code out of the step and run it in management studio it only emails once. I attached the code for one customer for reference. We are running SQL 2008 on a VM sending to an exchange 2010 server.
DECLARE @tableHTML NVARCHAR(MAX) ;
SET @tableHTML =N'<H1>XYZ Company ASN For ' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(10), GETDATE(), 101) + ' </H1>' +
N'<table border="1">' +
N'<tr><th>Vendor</th><th>Delivery Date</th>' +
N'<th>Purchase Order Number</th><th>Item Number</th><th>Item Description</th>' +
N'<th>Quantity Shipped</th><th>UOM</th><th>BOL Number</th>'
[code]....
I was tasked with witing a stored procedure to send out emails based on certain criteria. One of our developers decided to take care of the criteria in another process and pass variables for me to use. I am not quite sure how to go about this, but below is what I started with. I declared his variables, and then set up a couple of my own for the email subject line and text.
create PROCEDURE [dbo].[SendWelcomeEmails]
AS
BEGIN
-- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from
-- interfering with SELECT statements.
SET NOCOUNT ON;
[Code] ....
Do I need to use a cursor or can I just specify using if, then else? Also not sure where to SET the individual subject lines.
Hello to all,Can anybody please tell is SQl express 2005 suppoerts for send emails using stored porcedures?
I have a set of results based on a query that displays a learner, their workplace assessor and both their email addresses.
I want to send a standard request email (using db_mail) to each learner's email address which specifies who their individual assessor is and their current employer. One per learner.
I then want to email each assessor and in this email detail their learners (and their employer details) that I have emailed the request too.
I'm trying to create a report that will be data-driven and produce multiple reports based on a parameter. For example, 5 reports go out today based on invoice numbers from yesterday. Each invoice can have multiple trasnsaction lines and each line contains the invoice number. What I have so far is only taking the first invoice number (let's say it has 10 transactions) and sending me the same report 10 times and stopping.
I get nothing for the remaining 4 invoices/reports. Here is what I have. To me this should enter the distinct invoice no's from yesterday into #temp, while a invoice no exiists begin query with one invoice selected from #temp then delete that invoice no and select another one and repeat till no more invoice no's. But it's only going through the one invoice no.
select distinct InvoiceNo
into #temp
from table
where Invoicedate between getdate()-1 and getdate()
declare @InvoiceNo VARCHAR(25)

I have a requirement of migrating DTS package which is done in Sql Server 2000 to SSIS 2012.
I started with one package having data driven query task and done with source for which i chose OLE DB Source and given the required select query in ssis 2012
I'm stuck now and i'm unable to choose the relevant tools in ssis 2012 for binding, transformation,queries and lookup tabs used in dts 2000 for this DDQT.
So, Microsoft decided that they were deprecating Transactional Replication with Updatable subscriptions. In that case, you have 2 options (if I am correct): Pay for Enterprise (if you are already not) and use peer-to-peer or use bidirectional transactional replication which is basically setting up a transactional from db1 to db2 and also transactional from db2 to db1.
The issue I see in both cases is conflict resolution. With updatable subscriptions, you could specify how to handle the conflict. With either of these 2 options (from what I can tell) you cannot allow the engine to handle this for you.
Any thoughts? Seems like a slap in the face to those who have been using MS for years and a damn good reason for companies that rely on updatable subscriptions to not upgrade to 2012.
I have a stored proc that contains an update which utilizes a case statement to populate values in a particular column in a table, based on values found in other columns within the same table. The existing update looks like this (object names and values have been changed to protect the innocent):
UPDATE dbo.target_table
set target_column =
case
when source_column_1= 'ABC'then 'XYZ'
when source_column_2= '123'then 'PDQ'
[Code] ....
The powers that be would like to replace this case statement with some sort of table-driven structure, so that the mapping rules defined above can be maintained in the database by the business owner, rather than having it embedded in code and thus requiring developer intervention to perform changes/additions to the rules.
The rules defined in the case statement are in a pre-defined sequence which reflects the order of precedence in which the rules are to be applied (in other words, if a matching value in source_column_1 is found, this trumps a conflicting matching value in source_column_2, etc). A case statement handles this nicely, of course, because the case statement will stop when it finds the first "hit" amongst the WHEN clauses, testing each in the order in which they are coded in the proc logic.
What I'm struggling with is how to replicate this using a lookup table of some sort and joins from the target table to the lookup to replace the above case statement. I'm thinking that I would need a lookup table that has column name/value pairings, with a sequence number on each row that designates the row's placement in the precedence hierarchy. I'd then join to the lookup table somehow based on column names and values and return the match with the lowest sequence number, or something to that effect.
Greetings,
We periodically get the following message in our three server peer-to-peer transactional replication environment:
"One or more subscriptions have been marked inactive. Drop and re-create all subscriptions for this node that are failing with this error."
What causes a subscription to be marked inactive? What properties or settings can be adjusted to minimize or eliminate this occurrence?
Everthing seems to be running OK and then we get the message. It afflicts the higest change volume publication on our slowest overseas server.
Thanks,
BCB
