Using SQL Server Reporting Services, we're designing an executive reporting interface for a handful of high-level managers who need no more that a dozen reports.
What's the best user interface for them where they would choose the report they need?
- The SSRS Report Manager web page?
- A SharePoint page (integrated with SSRS)?
- A report menu within an existing application?
- Anything else?
I don't want to use SSRS's GUI for parameter entry. It's quite minimal and not very easy to use for users and doesn't cope very well with large selection lists (E.g if you wanted to select 3 companies from a list of 60 000 to run a report for).
So I want to make my own parameter entry screen and then pass only the user parameter value selection on to the report parameters. Can I do that? Are the parameters exposed?
I'd wanna do something like: My_SSRS_Rep.param1=@MyValFromMyApp1 My_SSRS_Rep.param2=@MyValFromMyApp2 My_SSRS_Rep.Run/Refresh/View
Currently I just have a Windows form with a web browser control in it. And I've set the url to http://myserver/reportserver?%2fDB+Report+Server%myRep&rs:Command=Render So it is possible? Or do I need to go about this some other way like using the SSRS Report Viewer or some other mechanism?
Answer: http://www.sqlteam.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=88484 Report Viewer it is then!
UPDATE1: Or maybe not... When I do the following, the report does not refresh:
Dim param(0) As Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ReportParameter param(0) = New Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ReportParameter("Test", a) Me.ReportViewer1.ServerReport.SetParameters(param) Me.ReportViewer1.ServerReport.Refresh()
I downloaded SQL Server Express 5.0 and would like to know - must I open SQLServer through a studio like SQL Server Management Studio Express, or can it open on its own? Does it come with a GUI inside it?
I clicked Start/All Programs/Microsoft SQL Server 2005 and only submenues were displayed, not the server itself. The submenues were
Configuration Tools SQL Server Management Studio Express.
Hello everybody, please advice: what is the fastest standard method of user interface access to SQL database? I am looking for fast display of one master record plus related dependent records, plus fast scrolling through master records with display of dependent records as fast as posible. Perhaps a standard problem with standard solution? At current state of matters, I am still much slower then with my old Access97 database.
I have a SSIS package which takes excel spreadsheets (exported from MS Project) and imports them into tables in my database. I have each step of my control flow set up with "On Success" so it only continues if the previous step was successful.
My next step is to create a asp.net page and/or web part so that I can have my user click a button to launch this SSIS and import this data. I have seen articles on how this could be done via code - so I assume it can be done. But what I cannot find is how alert the user if an error has occured in the execution of the SSIS.
How can you alert a user that a package you executed though vb.net in the front end errored?
Could I build something in to the OnError handler that returns the error and have that error returned to the front end App??
Any insight/examples for this would be much appreciated.
Hello,I would like to know if it is possible to create a form in Access2000,which would function like a calendar for 8 operating rooms inhospital, showing which hours are those closed for a specific date.For this intersection I would like to be appeared the name of thedoctor, the name of the patient and the kind of operation.Furthemore I would like this intersection to be marked in the calendarwith a colour, showing that this room is closed for that time.The data for this form are going to be extracted from a table storedin SQL Server 2000.Generally the whole application is stored in SQL Server( storedprocedures, tables, diagrams etc.)1)How this can be done? Is this going to be through VB or not? Can Imake a template in Excel spreadsheet put it in a formand apply code on it?I would like also to make forms(in Access) for user-entry data thatwill use stored procedures of SQL Server with pushing the OK button.The stored procedures would take as arguments the user-entry data fromtheforms.I thought to make a pass-through query which would use a VB functionand would take as arguments the user's valuesand after would pass these values in the stored procedures.2)Can this be done through the pass-through query, that is SqlServer "understands" VB or better Access pass-through query processthe VB commands before be connected with the Sql Server?What do you think of this as an idea?My problem is that I really don't know how to combine VB code withTransact Sql code.Can you give an example or any ideas where I can find the relativeinformation?Thanks you in advance.
Hello, does anyone hate the new interface where you manage the Table Relationships, Indexes, and etc?
I hate it a lot for these reasons. 1) Dialog window cannot be resized (really really annoying) 2) The Table-Relationship configuration dialog window is not as convenient to use as SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Manager.
I hope this is the correct place to provide feedback and I hope this will get modified a bit in the next service pack (or) update....
I am a bigginer. I need to save input from textBox (User interface that I have made using VWD) to a database in SQLSEE 2005 using C#. please help me. I now how to connect to DB using Visual Items like gride view and form view. but i want to conect to DB using my developed UI lke in below. any help greatly appreciated
I execute a pretty big sql query which joins multiple tables and I reviewed indexes on all these tables. I am happy with the result when I run the query using SSMS in the server locally i.e., where my SQL Server database is installed. It takes 4 seconds to get around 17000 records. If I run the same query in a network or from my desktop using SSMS i.e., i connect to the above mentioned SQL Server using SSMS, it takes more than 60 seconds. Not sure how to solve this. If someone could help me, it will be of great help.
I'm developing an custom dataflow transformation task that involves mapping of columns between multiple inputs and outputs. All the mappings are stored in a dataset. At first I thought to store this to an variable but after reloading bids I get an schema not found on xml for the stored dataset. Then I tried to put the dataset into an custom property but that seems to only take strings.
So how do I save the info on the mappings contained in my dataset (as that is most easy while using a datagrid to display mappings) in the package preferably in a way that is not visible to the user.
In short: What is the proper way to save complex datatypes in a custom dataflow task using a custom ui?
I have created a report based on xml datasource using windows authentication as its credentials. Now the report calls a webservice to retrieve data from the database, I would like to pass the user name who will run the repoty to the web service, Is there a way to retrieve the user name from the webservice.
I'm using SSR5 2005. I have a set of Cubes. Any idea as how to created customized reports using SSRS. The end user should be able to create reports by himself. Please help or send me some links where I can get help in this regard.
I am really new to SSRS (This is my first report) and I am looking to create a drop down that will allow a user to select the value to appear in a report. Meaning that is my values are:
a b c d
If the user types a B it would "jump to that letter in the selection.
I've got a Server setup at work on our RD domain It's Windows 2012, running SQL Server 2012 with reporting Services I've installed our application and reports to this server.
If I'm on my CORP domain on my development laptop I can enter the following into IE [URL] ...... and the SSRS reports page opens up fine
I then RDP into this server using my same CORP credentials Open IE on this server and enter the same URL within IE and get User 'CORPORATEjoep' does not have required permissions. Verify that sufficient permissions have been granted and Windows User Account Control (UAC) restrictions have been addressed.
I'm on the Server itself. Why does my account not work there, but when I access SSRS from outside this SERVER with same login, it works
There's a new SSRS 2012 environment which was setup with My Reports folder to each user enabled. I know I'm supposed to see a Users Folder in the Report Manager root, I'm setup as a system administrator (under Site Settings) and also have content manager rights in the root directory and I still don't see the "Users Folders" ...the only way I can see that is if they give me admin rights in the server SSRS is installed. What am I missing here, is this supposed to be like that?
I need to know is there any way to end user customization with SSRS, we are using ASP.Net page, we need to create SSRS report with end user customization like mail merge, but we don't want end user to use Report Builder or Report Designer.
After publishing report on server and accessing it from URL its prompting for the USER ID and pAssword of Admin user of the server. Have tried to find the Virtual Directory of the Reporting server on IIS - which is not available. or unable to find the same. Apart from this have saved the Database credential in the report itself.
When a user runs the report after a minute or 3 the user gets a timeout message, if an administrator runs te same report he will get the results. No errors in log. report timeout on 1800 seconds
I am facing a problem which is based on the restrictions on the domain of the customer. After deplyoing the report on the server we are getting the following error message in the report manager after executing (clicking) a report link:
Logon failed.
Logon failure: the user has not been granted the requested logon type at this computer. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070569)
I googled for that and it seems to be an authentication issue where some user / account is not granted to log on as service / locally, but the problems is better described than the solutions. Did anyone faced that problem so far ? Which account has to be granted what priviledges or permissions in Windows. We are using a SQL Server 2005 / Reporting Services 2005 running on the same machine whereas the virtual directories Reports and Reportserver are running in a separate Application Pool
I need to create an report from SSRS and then exported it in excel for the user. It has dynamic header/footer and dynamic excel sheet name. The developer told that it is not possible to have both the things dynamic.
I just setup a developer as a site admin in SSRS, he has administration rights to the site and also rights on folders that contain reports. He can access the reports folders no problem, however when he tries to access the "Home" folder he get's the error shown below.
UAC is switched off an other people are able to access this ok.
Hi I have picked up the same problem that quite a few folks have identified.
I have created a SSRS Solution and have a report which I am trying to deploy to the Report Manager. The project 'builds' locally but when I try to deploy it, a User Login Box pops up.
Has any one been able to ascertain what causes the problem and how does one go about resolving the problem. I am using Window Authentication on WIndows XP SP2 with SQL Server 2005 Developers Edition and Visual Studio 2005 Professional I have not 'tinkered' with IIS,.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. regards Steve
I have done the following and a domain user would not access report created a login to the SQL server to the user (this SQL Server is where data source DB is)went to site setting in Report Manager and made this use a system userright clicked on report folder and made this user in the browser roleeven checked that in the report in question, the user is already in the browser role Still the user would not access the report! "User .......... does not have required permission" is the error message I am getting.
we have problems with our SQL Reporting Service 2012 (SSRS) server . We have setup Kerberos delegation between SSRS and the database server (SQL Server Always-on cluster) so users are authenticated down to the database. The issue occurs from time to time that SSRS loses the ability to delegate the user credentials to the database. At this point in time the Report Server logs contain rejected database connections because of ANONYMOUS logon. After restarting SSRS the problem is gone.
This is my first time to deploy an asp.net2 web site. Everything is working fine on my local computer but when i published the web site on a remote computer i get the error "Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to failure in retrieving the user's local application data path. Please make sure the user has a local user profile on the computer. The connection will be closed" (only in pages that try to access the database) Help pleaseee
Hi all. I'm not sure if this is the correct place for this question, so my apologies if it should be in another section.
I need to build a simple QA (quality assurance) DB for my company (a small physician group). I have the DB built in Access, but would much prefer to put it in SQL Server for reasons of stability, security, and access control.
What I would like to do is build a web interface to this DB so the users can just click an IE shortcut on their desktop, and be able to enter information via the browser like they would in a form in MS Access.
What would be the best way of going about building something like this? My background is as an analyst, so I'm unsure when it comes to actually building a front-end.
Sorry if this question is simplistic or if it has already been answered, and thank you in advance for any assistance you may lend.
I am working on the project for Health Care Provider. They use HL7 interface to data sources. Any other interface is not an option. I need to address following scenarios for daily ETL jobs:
Pull analyses results for patients based on certain criteria to my database (SQL2005). Hundreds of results per day. Verify list of patients against master list thru HL7 and update data elements that has changed. There are millions of patients I am considering using WEB Services task in SSIS for scenario 1. Scenario 2 is more complicated because of the volume of data. I am considering using BizTalk for this one. Can BizTalk handle this scenario? Is there is more efficient way?
I have the following VB function. The stored proc that is being called ("GetList") inside the function does a simple SQL Select statement against an SQL Server 7 database using OLE DB. I'd like to store the result of the SQL Select statement in the "Rs" parameter to pass back to the calling function. Whenever I call this function, I get an error message stating "No Such Interface Supported". Does anyone know why I cannot do this?
Also, this function is being called from ASP code. That's why the "Rs" is passed as a variant. It's created in the ASP code before this function is called.
------------------------------------------
Function GetAddressDropDownList(Rs As Variant, CustomerId As Long)
Dim ProcComm Dim Parameter
Set ProcComm = CreateObject("ADODB.Command") ProcComm.CommandType = adCmdStoredProc ProcComm.CommandText = "GetList"
Set Parameter = ProcComm.CreateParameter("CustomerId", adInteger, adParamInput) Parameter.Value = CustomerId ProcComm.Parameters.Append Parameter Set Parameter = Nothing
