SSRS With SSAS
Aug 24, 2007
Hi,
I'm using SSAS 2005 cube as Data Source for my SSRS 2005 report. The report has parameters as well.
The requirement is that I want to pass parameters to the report using my own UI.
My questions are:
1. "How to pass parameters to my report using my UI?" I'm developing the UI using VS2003 (the client's requirement).
2. Is there any ReportViewer control available in Framework 1.x?
3. I'm also using a drilldown sub-report with the same report. I'm passing parameter values to the sub-report selecting the fields of my data. But when the sub-report is opened, it gives an error saying "The parameter 'X' is not assigned a value".
Can anybody help on any or all of these?
---
Thanks in Advance,

We're setting up a test and development envorinment and would like some advice on the best deployment of the SQL 2005 components.
Some people seem to advise to have
Machine1 SSIS & Database engine
Machine2 SSAS
Machine3 SSRS
Others say it's OK to put SSRS & SSAS on same box.
Others say it's fine to run all on one box.
Anyone have any rule of thumb advice or links to such ?
Cheers,
Will

I've see twice this year two different companies either already or planning on having ssas and ssrs running on the same server.Â

Does the SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition include both of these:
Reporting Services?
Analysis Services?
( Also -- Anyone know where I can see a list of all the differences between Dev Edition and other SQL Server editions?)

I have a measure in a SSAS cube that uses AggregateFunction "Sum". Dimension usage seems to be right so that it sums correctly.
But when I try to use same measure in SSRS report it comes out all wrong.
TO be precise the measure is called "CalendarDays" and it's the number of days in a month (28,29,30 or 31). Say I have 5 products and 4 years, If I look at this in the cube browser then the CalendarDays column aggregates correctly to 365 or 366 for each year even with the five products and 12 months in the rows.
However if I do a SSRS report by product and month with subtotals of years, then SUM(CalendarDays) adds up all the CalendarDays for each month and each product (ie 5 x 365 or 366). If I leave out "SUM" and just enter =Fields!CalendarDays in the subtotal then it doesn't aggregate at all, it jsut gives the first value (ie 31).
How can I get SSRS to aggregate the same way as the cube?

Hi
I've made my Cube having two language support - Japanese and English. For that I'm keeping two description columns relavent to language and mapping in dimenstion attribute translation. Till that it is fine. In SQL 2005 Analysis Services Browser it working very fine. But when I use this cube with SSRS, I've made Custom parameter for Language. And based on that I'm chaning Report.Language property for the selected language. It is working fine in case of Report Data. It is converting data in Japanese when I select Japanese Language and translating in English when I select English. But Problem is that Parameter's data is not chaning when I change the language. I supposed to that when I'm changing Report.Language to Japanese then Parameter's data should be changed in Japanese. Please help how it can be possible.
Thanks in Advance.

I have a vision of a beautifully interlocked Business Intelligence system in which I load dimensional fact tables through SSIS, build aggregations in SSAS cubes, and quickly and easily generate SSRS reports using the cubes as data marts.
I am now a month into trying to implement this vision and Reality is stomping all over it. Primarily, I am running into issues with the "cube as a data mart" idea. Each cube is taking up an additional gig or two of space, report queries against them seem to take longer than a straight SQL query against my fact tables, and I am running into serious problems trying to pass time-related calculations such as Year-To-Date to my reports.
Has anyone else tried setting up a BI system that uses cubes as the primary drivers for their reports? Have you seen any benefits to doing it that way? Or should I generate most of my reports through the SQL tables?
I'm nearing the point-of-no-return in choosing my final methodology, and any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi,
I would like to ask how can I create a subscription for a report that connects to Analysis Services?
I was able to create a subscription but the report's datasource is SQL Server 2005 using the built-in "sa" credential. But when I am connected to SSAS the option to use the SQL login is greyed out.
Please help!
Thanks

Hi all,
I'm sure what I am trying to do is very simple - but I just can't seem to figure it out. I have a report based on a SSAS cube (SQL 2005). The report shows sales based on the dates the user selects from the parameter field (the date parameter field comes from a Y-Q-M-D hierarchy). This all works fine.
What I would like to happen is for the members within the last 3 months to be automatically selected so that the report automatically executes for the last 3 months.
Can anyone help or offer any advice. If possible I would like to achieve this using the GUI features so that power users can use the "plug and pray interface".
Many thanks
Matt

I would like to know best practices for setting up my environment. To date, I've had everything running on a single server. That would include the database engine, SSIS, SSAS and SSRS. The box configuration is dual hyperthreaded 3.6GHz Xenon with 4GB of RAM on Windows Server 2003. I just received a much larger server and want to configure it to maximize our environment. The new box contains four 2.6GHz Quad Core processors with 16GB of RAM. I would like to know if I should split the ETL and database engine from SSAS and SSRS, or should this box have enough horse power to house it all and use my other box as a dev environment. Also, we are planning to purchase Performance Point 2007 primarily for PAS and Scorecard Manager so please take that into consideration as well. Any comments are greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Has anyone managed to crack getting multi-select parameters to work from an SSRS 2005 report which is querying an SSAS 2000 cube.
SSRS 2005 does support Multiselect, however SSRS 2000 did not. Given that i am querying an SSAS 2000 cube, i get the impression that i am also limited to SSRS 2000 functionality regarding to multi-select parameters.
Is there anyone out there that ever managed to get a wor around, say by using filters on a table or anything really that coud simulate the same behaviour....

I have an SSRS report that gets its data from an SSAS cube, and it essentially displays a list of students and absences. Everything works fine.
But the users only want to see the top N students with the highest absences. For example, today they want to see the top 100, but during summer vacation, they only want to see the top 5.
Is there a way to add this parameter to the SSRS report? So if I select "5" from the dropdown parameter, it will show the top 5 absences.
The query that I use to populate the report is something simple:
SELECT NON EMPTY { [Measures].[Absences] } ON COLUMNS, NON EMPTY { ([Dim Date].[Date Key].[Date Key].ALLMEMBERS * [Dim Student].[Lte Cell Key].[Lte Cell Key].ALLMEMBERS ) } DIMENSION PROPERTIES MEMBER_CAPTION, MEMBER_UNIQUE_NAME ON ROWS FROM ( SELECT ( STRTOSET(@DimDateDateKey, CONSTRAINED) ) ON COLUMNS FROM [Daily Cube]) CELL PROPERTIES VALUE, BACK_COLOR, FORE_COLOR, FORMATTED_VALUE, FORMAT_STRING, FONT_NAME, FONT_SIZE, FONT_FLAGS

how to trigger report's refresh following its underlying SSAS cubes process?
I want to keep reports data updated at all times, especially when this happens while user is already browsing the report..
I don't want to set an auto refresh for the report every 5 minutes as my cube is processed only one time during the day...

Hi,
I am receiving the following error when I run the report builder query. I am able to successfully select the dimensions and measures that I am intrested in but when I run the report I get the error message.
The 'PerspectiveID' custom property for the 'query' perspective is either not set or is not set to the string data type.
----------------------------
Semantic query execution failed.
----------------------------
Query execution failed for data set 'dataSet'.
----------------------------
An error has occurred during report processing.
I am testing this against both Adventureworks standard and enterprise cubes. Additionality I saw a post in this forum
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=368962&SiteID=1
that seemed related but I am using reporting services in sharepoint integrated mode so I am having a hard time trying to troubleshoot this.
Thanks,
Larry

Hi everybody.
I'm looking to upgrade to SQL Server 2005 (Standard Edition). I'm interested in using SSIS, SSRS and SSAS. I hear that BIDS runs inside of Visual Studio 2005, and comes with the SQL 2005 software. I currently have VS 2003. My question is: Do I need to purchase anything besides SQL Server 2005 Standard, or do I need to buy anything separately, like VS 2005? (if so, which version would you recommend?)
Thank you very much!

Is it possible to write SSRS 2008 reports to run on an existing SSRS 2005 server?
If yes, what do I need to do to be able to write SSRS 2008 reports on my developer PC that will run on the SQL 2005 Server (which also has SSRS 2005 installed on it)?
I installed Visual Studio 2008 beta on the development PC and it appears that it needs SSRS installed on it too. So I installed SQL 2008 SSRS (SQL Server Reporting Services) and SQL 2008 Workstation Components onto the developer PC. Next I run the SQL 2008 "Reporting Services Configuration" tool. When I click on the "Web Service URL" section it hangs indefinitely and I have to force it closed.
The developer PC is Windows Vista Business.
Any suggestions on making this work, or any other information that you can think of that would allow me to use Visual Studio 2008 and the SQL 2008 "Report Designer Preview" tool to develop SSRS reports that will run on the SQL 2005 SSRS server?
Thanks!

hi,
In SSAS is it possible for lookup table, for instance: if the purchase goes above 500 then rating is 5,if 400 then rating 4...the purchase values like 500,400 are in one dimension table. hence the rating are in another dimension table.
Is it possible to make a lookup with these dimension table by providing rating?
If it's possible,then how to implement???
Thanks in advance

Can someone please tell me the difference between these two pieces of software? I am looking for a *concise* definition of both packages, what they do, what they don't do, and how they work together. We use SQL Server and are working to create a data warehouse from our production db.
We use SSAS for a few OLAP cubes but I have read that it is recommend to first warehouse the data then build cubes on top of the warehouse? I assume you use SSIS to build the warehouse?
Any links would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your helpful advice.

Can I implement a slowly changing dimension type 2 in SSAS. I am looking at creating an SSAS cube which can pull data directly from an operational OLTP database. The source database does not maitain history of changes for the dimensions, and I wanted to know if SSAS will help me keep that history by defining certain dimensions as a SCD. If so how do I define that rule. All tutorials I have read only skim on that topic and don't describe the steps/ways to define it in SSAS. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello experts,
Last time I worked with SSAS and build a Cube. Because I€™m now very happy with the front-end excel 2003 or excel 2007 I thought I build my own Report with SSRS.
Now there is something I don€™t understand:
I build a Hierarchy in SSAS that a want to use in SSRS. Is there a chance to use it without any features? Have I to use parameters or something another?
In my opinion it makes any sense to build a hierarchy new, because it€™s already exists in SSAS.
Have a nice day
Alex

Hi,
I created a cube in my development box, tested, performance is great, now if I try to deploy it into the production server from VS, the screen freezes without any error msg... after some time playing around with security I gave up and created a backup of the cube, and sent it over to the IT department( I have no direct control over the production server so they restored the cube ). Now with the cube in production, it was a matter of just processing it... well that didn't go well either... it would take forever from my development box to see results... then I tried to browse any dimension using the data already on the backup... a simple 4 values dimension would take 2-4 minutes to load on screen...
I can't understand why browsing the cube its so slow in the production server, IT admin even reported that when trying to browse locally it would be slow too... The server has 16gbs of RAM and its a dual processor, he didnt notice any lack of CPU or memory while browsing the cube...
Have you experienced this or can you help me troubleshoot whats going on?
