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.
Any help is appreciated.
I have created calcalated measures in a SQL Server 2012 SSAS multi dimensional model by creating empty measures in the cube and use scope statements to fill the calculation.
(so I can use measure security on calculations
as explained here  )
SCOPE [Measures].[C];
THIS = IIF([B]=0,0,[Measures].[A]/[Measures].[B]);
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, you€™ll see the Internet Sales Order Details entity below it
- If you select the Sales Order Details entity, however, you€™ll only see the attributes that are in that dimension; you won€™t see any of the measures that exist in the measure groups that are related to it
- Based on that fact, you can€™t 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...
Thanks!

Hello,
is there a way, how to build drop-down parameters in report builder when creating a report based on SSAS report model ?
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?
Thanks,
I was wondering if there was any way to add a value field to a report, with the time it took for the report to Process.
It would probably be a text field with an Expression, but don't know how that would go.
I know that in Expression there is a value for ExecutionTime (when report began to run), but nothing about when it ends.Can this be done? and if yes, how?
I have a cube that tracks sales by sales rep. In this cube, I have dimensions for SalesRep, Product, and Region hierarchies. I also have a Time dimension that provides Fiscal Year, Fiscal Quarter, Fiscal Month, and Calendar Date; the Time dimension also has an attribute showing the first day of the year for any given date (our fiscal year starts on a different date every year).
I have a report that passes StartDate and EndDate parameters back to the cube, and provides sales numbers by Rep, Product, and Region for that given date range. What I would also like is a field that provides YTD sales through the EndDate parameter.
This is a piece of cake for me to implement against the SQL tables, but I am pulling my hair out trying to determine the best way to implement with a cube. Does anyone have any suggestions?
TIA

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.
I am trying to get a date diff in a named calculation using inner join I am getting
Subquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when the subquery follows =, !=, <, <= , >, >= or when the subquery is used as an expression. #
I have checked online and have been able to get some of my codes right by using the where condition in place of the inner join, but I have not been able to work around the datediff one
(select
DATEDIFF(day,TDate,[DID])
FROM [dv].[dbo].[Dail] as D
inner join
[dv].[dbo].[ANT] as A
on
a.AID = d.AID)
Does any1 know why preview of a DAX calculation does not work? I mean once you enter the calculation in the bottom of the table it doesnt´t show up.

I just created a report builder. I have a main report and i wanted to create a sub report. why i cant or i cant view the path or the folder of my .rdl file to be use as my sub report.
View 5 Replies View RelatedAfter I use the report builder to create a generic report, how do I actually get that report into the report designer so that I can modify it more effectivly?
The issue that I have now is that the file on the report server is not a .rdl file and if I simply save it as one and then bring it into VS to modify it the code file is a html structure rater than a XML file type.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Hello All,
I have some difficulties with TSQL where i need to calculate time between two records in seconds.
Records look like this:
ID IP DATE CHANNEL_ID #CALCTIME
1 10.132.184.226 12/06/2007 08:00:00 406 35
2 10.96.121.230 12/06/2007 08:00:10 1 45
3 10.128.242.214 12/06/2007 08:00:20 4 39
4 10.132.184.226 12/06/2007 08:00:30 2
5 10.96.121.230 12/06/2007 08:00:55 3
6 10.96.121.214 12/06/2007 08:00:59 3 21
7 10.96.121.214 12/06/2007 08:01:20 4
.........................................................................................................
Basically i would need to calculate the time between 2 records with the same IP (next one with the same IP) and calculate the time between the DATE which is basically attached to the first record. As you can see the first #CALCTIME is done between the ID #1 and ID#4 which means that the time difference must be done between the current and the next record.
Really appreciate your help!
Thank you!

Hi,
I get a no. of seconds (like '33450', varchar) for each day and I have a day field (like '19.10.2004', varchar).
How can I easily convert it into a datetime-field (like 2004-10-19 09:17:50) ?
Does anybody has an idea ?
:confused:
I am trying to produce a report that will show a duration in minutes of a time when a room was occupied for a category. Whilst I have the start and end dates and times, the end user must be able to specify not only a range of dates, but a start and endtime of hours in the day in which they are interested in (it will be applied to all days in the range - they are not allowed to specify a different start/endtime per day).
The example I have is a date range of 6 to 17 October, but they only want the times from 09:00 to 21:00, so if a room was occupied from 08:00 to 11:00 they would only want to know the duration as 120 minutes (09:00 to 11:00) not 180.
The data is supplied by a third party, and duration in minutes is supplied, but it is not much use when they are not interested in the 'real' duration.
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[Evts](
[Location_name] [nvarchar](200) NULL,
[Event_Category] [nvarchar](500) NULL,
[Start_Time] [datetime] NULL,
[End_Time] [datetime] NULL,
[Duration] [int] NULL
[Code] ....
---but the expected output is
Location_nameEvent_Categoryduration
RS8CM240
RS8OD480 -- eliminating 08:00 - 09:00 on 17th
RS8OOT300 -- eliminating 08:00 - 09:00 on 13th
RS8SCC150
RS8SODT1740
RS8 SODT180
RS8SODTB60
RS8SODTNT180
RS8TR60
Looking for info regarding to the minute calculation when the start time specified by the user differs from that of the actual startime?
Would like to know if it is possible to calculate the duration of a Datetime Start and End Dates ignoring all overlapps?
Eg:
1) StartTime 10:00:00 EndTime 11:00:00 Duration: 01:00:00
2) StartTime 10:30:00 EndTime 11:15:00 Duration: 00:45:00
Total Duration should be 01:15:00 and not 01:45:00
I've created a linked server with a pretty basic Excel spreadsheet, and used this command to create a linked server to it:
sp_addlinkedserver ''XL_SPS_1', 'Excel', 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'c:MyExcel.xls', null, 'Excel 8.0'
I want to use this as the data from which to build a report model. As linked servers don't show up in the Data Source View wizard, I created a view in SQL Server:
create view MyExcel
as
select * from XL_SPS_1...Sheet1$
Okay, great, now the view shows up in the DSV wizard and I can create the data source view. However, when I create a new report model based on this data source view, the Report Model Wizard tells me at "Create entities for all tables" that I've got an error when it processes dbo_MyExcel that "Table does not have a primary key."
I assume this is where the identifying attributes for the entities in the report model are taken from, so I really can't go further. Does anyone have an idea as to how to add a primary key to a linked server (Excel) in SQL 2005? Can this be done? Other than importing spreadsheet data to a SQL table, how can I get around this?
Thanks,

We have a remote business client who has a proxy server setup and this translates into receiving a 407 proxy authentication blocking error when attempting to download the report builder application for deployment off the report server which is housed locally with us. The proxy server does not allow them to download application type files off another site. At the moment, they would not like to disable the proxy for these users to allow them to deploy the application on their client or add the report server as a trusted site. Is there a method by which Report Builder can be locally installed on the client pc instead of online only with it knowing the correct report server to access and then still launch correctly when the report builder button is pressed through report manager?
I am not a web application guru by any means and we have tried to replicate the oneclick deployment and what occurs in the local settings/apps/2.0 subdirectories, but the application still attempts to download/install again. If we attempt to just launch the local executable on the client, report builder assumes the client pc (localhost) is the report server to access. Is there a method which will succeed?
Hi,
I am unable to launch report builder from the report manager from a client machine. But I am able to launch from the localhost.
Even I am able to launch report builder by clicking reportbuilder.exe on the local machine.
Please help !!

I have a report builder drill down report. I have row groups with totals.   It looks like the attached.  The problem is when the report is not expanded the Grand Totals column is not accurate... it is displaying the totals of one of the rows when expanded.The expression in the Total Show text box is
= Switch ( Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
MID(Fields!protocol_id.Value,1,7)="THERAPY", Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
                     Sum(IIF(Fields!status.Value = "CO", CDbl(Fields!TX_CO.Value),      Nothing)),
 MID(Fields!protocol_id.Value,1,7) = "GENERAL" and                          MID(Fields!program_id.Value,1,6)
= "INTAKE", Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Sum(IIF(Fields!status.Value = "CO",
[code]...
Is there any way to not display the expression in the Total columns unless the report is expanded?
HI, there,
I added a new windows user "ReportUser" which is a local user (not in administrator group). When I connect to the report manage's web page, I use reportuser to log in (when the anonymous access is disabled it will ask a log in). Report builder icon is not showing up on the report manager home page.
If I log in as a user in administrator group, the reportr builder icon shows up so I can download it and build report.
I have assigned reportuser "Content manager" and "repoter builder" access to the home folder. Is there anything else I have to do to make the report build icon show up on the home page?
Thanks

I have client machine in one domain, say A domain , on which I have installed .net 2.0 without any problem. I have report server running in other domain (B domain) where I have deployed few models which will be used from domain A to create ad hoc reports by launching Report Builder. I can access other reports in domain B from A
But when I click on Report Builder ..it tries to connect to server in domain B but fails to connect and shows following log in a text pop up
I know, problem is because of cross domain communication but question is then how to fix it ? what changes I need to do for that in firewall, domain etc etc settings?

Is there a way to see Report-Level variables in Report Builder 3.0? Also, just as a feedback, it would be really nice if there were a way to see and easily access all of the variables used in a report from one location instead of going to the dataset, the report, and then to the individual groups (if needed) to see the variables. Also, it would be very useful if Group-level variables can show up in the Expression Builder as well.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've gotten to the point of publishing the new reports on the SSRS server and have run into the following problem.
I use a field in the primary report with the "Go to report" action to open up another report (also published) for more details. It works properly from within ReportBuilder (2.0) using the report server and I can go to and from the secondary report as I expect. Its passing the correct parameters to the second report and its runs.
But when I use the reports from the SSRS web, the Go To link no longer works. Mouse hover shows its still a link but clicking goes no where. I can run both reports independently from SSRS and they still work. Â
I've tried this in IE and Chrome with no luck in either. I also poked around at Compatability view and popup blocker but nothing made any difference.
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,
I've created dsv that contain all fields from table database. in the smdl I've remove some fileds due to security. All fields in the smdl do not contain drill.
Issue: When I created calculated field in the report builder the field has a link. When I clicked the drill I saw all the record data including field that not in the smdl.
Questions:
1) Can I remove the link from the calculated fields?
2) Can I prevent from users drill to fields that not in the smdl?
Thanks,

Hi,
I have environment that use SSRS 2005 ad hoc reporting.
One of the users (out of 200) is unable to open or save reports in the report builder.
the user succeed to open the report builder, when he try to save report that he build from shema he get error. as well when he try to open an existing report that build in the report builder he also get an error,
On open the error is:
The numeric portion of 2pt cannot be parsed as a unit of the type point.
The Initilizer for 'Microsoft.ReportingServices.Design.Constants' threw an exception
On Save the error is:
System.IO.StreamReader: Deserialization failed: The type initializer for 'Microsoft.ReportingServices.Design.Constants' threw an exception. Line 2, position 2
Please note that I succeed with second user to create ad hoc report on the first user
computer. I also failed to with the first user to create ad hoc on another computer.
It seems like permissions issue

Is it possible to dynamically refresh the report model of the report builder?
could it even be using code with any of the interfaces?
When we add a table or add a column to the table in database , will the report model get refreshed automatically or do we need to do it externally. If so, can we use any of the objects and write a custom code in VB.
