I need to script the execution of reports with input parameter values and with the report output going to PDF in a local file location on the server. I can't use traditional Report Server scheduling because I have to loop through a list of clients and execute the report for each client.
I appreciate any help you can offer.
Is there a way to schedule report snapshots and still give users the option to change the parameters? I found that report parameters are disabled when I set the execution options to use a snapshot. I fixed the problem by setting the report to use cached data that expires on a custom schedule and by scheduling an e-mail subscription that creates a new report cache soon after the cache expires. I'm guessing there must be a better way to provide good report performance with the default parameters as well as flexibility.

I have a need to display on screen AND email a pdf report to email addresses specified at run time, executing the report with a parameter specified by the user. I have looked into data driven subscriptions, but it seems this is based on scheduling. Unfortunately for the majority of the project I will only have access to SQL 2005 Standard Edition (Production system is Enterprise), so I cannot investigate thoroughly.
So, is this possible using data driven subscriptions? Scenario is:
1. User enters parameter used for query, as well as email addresses.
2. Report is generated and displayed on screen.
3. Report is emailed to addresses specified by user.
Any tips on how to get this working?
Thanks

Hello :
How to execute a procedure stored during execution of the report, that is before the poster the data.
Thnak you.
Hi,
I'm encounter lately some weird behaviour of SSRS in BIDS as well as after deploying on Reporting Server.
I'm running basic classical SQL SSRS Reports with Oracle DB connection. My reports have header and footer pagination and well defined report layer configuration. All the reports are simple based on one table and some basic parameters passed to query.
In query builder from BIDS from data tab, the query is running fine without any other execution delays. Also the query is runnign fine in PL/Dev environment.
When I switch in "Preview" mode the report hangs in execution and just showing "Report is being generated" without any resuts. After a while is generating an execution error (after 20 min).
The behaviour is the same after deployment on Report Server .
I now...here it comes...the problem is intermitent...some times the report is working...but most of the times it hangs on execution.
I checked the report from top to bottom and nothing's wrong from design perspective.
On other reports I don't have this problem and I don't understand where to start to investigate.
Any suggestions...I'm stuck here.
Thanks
I have a SSRS report with four parameters,and I want to be able to enter information for two of the parameters and run the report opposed to all four of them. However, when I select allow blanks and only select the parameters that I want to run the report by, the report come back blank..Essentially, I want to be able to the run report by different parameters without having to enter information for all parameters at the same time.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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.
How do I jump to another report based on a value in my current report. The report that I am jumping from has no parameters, just values.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have a report which have multiple parameters. By default all the parameters are selected. Now I am scheduling a Cache with Report Execution Snapshot. Now if I try to view the report, it disables the prompt selection. It means user cant change the selection. Is it the expeceted behaviour of the exectuion snapshot?

Hello:
Interestingly enough, I haven't come across this before. I have a SQL stored procedure which takes four parameters; periodstartdate (datetime), periodenddate (end time), hsgradyearstart (int), hsgradyearend (int)
[dbo].[CalculateActivityTotal]
-- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here
@periodstartdate datetime = '2007-01-01',
@periodenddate datetime = '2007-01-08',
@hsgradyearstart int = 1900,
@hsgradyearend int = 2007
AS...
If I run the stored procedure and pass the parameters using EXEC or
sp_executesql "CalculateActivityTotal '2008-01-04 12:00:00', '2008-01-11 12:00:00', 1900, 2008"
the stored proc takes well over ten minutes to run (it does a bunch of aggregation). If I modify the stored procedure to take no parameters, however, and I hardcode the dates in the stored proc using declare and set then it runs in 13 seconds. What could be causing my problem and how I can I go about resolving this? I need to pass the parameters via reporting server. Thanks!
I get this error with Report Builder "Report Execution Error" the report might not be valid or the server could not process the data.

I have created a report with the report server project template.
the report is created from stoked procedure having defaut input parameters.
With visual studio, i publish my report on reportserver. whenever i access to my report on this url :
http://localhost/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2fReport+Project4%2fReport4&rs:Command=Render. the created report is with the default parameters.
I would like to know if i can transmet parameters for the stocked procedure to build the report with the request i want.
I tried to put parameter directly in the url in this way
http://localhost/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2fReport+Project4%2fReport4&rs:Command=Render&@region='toto'
but without success.
my error message is that one
An attempt was made to set a report parameter '@region' that is not defined in this report. (rsUnknownReportParameter)
My stocked procedure is :
set ANSI_NULLS ON
set QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
go
ALTER procedure [dbo].[akli] @region varchar ='m'
as
select * from dbo.Report2 where region=@region
The request used to buid the report ?
DECLARE @region varchar
EXECUTE dbo.akli @region
What is wrong in that ?
Thanks for your help.

Here is a situation in my company:
We have an Office SharePoint 2007 site, we developed a couple of web parts and added them to our site. We used SQL Server Reporting services 2005 as our reporting solution. The reports are hosted on the report center and when we need a report, we open it by sending a URL requesting the report, passing the report parameters in the URL query string. So the report is filtered based on the parameters passed from the web parts.
But since best practices say that you should host reports directly under SharePoint, by configuring the reporting services to run in the SharePoint integrated mode. We followed the steps and installed SharePointRS and we finally succeeded to publish the reports to a SharePoint folder, but we had a limitation: we are unable to pass the report parameters internally to the report hosted in SharePoint. If we passed them in the query string as the report center case, SharePoint neglects them totally.
So the question is: how can I pass parameters internally between a SharePoint web part and a SQL server 2005 reporting services report hosted in SharePoint?
I am trying to develop a report from cube,and it has one drill through report.when i click on sales amount field on main report,then it open the drill through report with details.Here i passed the **(category,subcat,product)parameters(Cascaded)** to drill through report in action part of main report.In my main report i have two columns .
columns are **Level** and **Salesamount**.
Values are like
**[-]category** **100**
**[-]subcat** **50**
**product** **30**
when i click on 100, parameters are passed & it open the detail report correctly, but when i click on 50,the values for subcat parameter is not getting values in detail report and same as the product also.
Here i used the expressions in parameter values
**pCategory**----iif(inscope(category),!fields.category.value,split(join(Parameters!category.value,","),","))
**psubcat**----iif(inscope(subcat),!fields.subcat.value,split(join(Parameters!subcat.value,","),","))
**pproduct**----iif(inscope(product),!fields.product.value,split(join(Parameters!product.value,","),","))

I am having hard time in sending parameters to the report server through reportviewer control from my application. Could anybody help me on this issue?. Is there any way to send the parameters and also what kind of configuration do i need on my report project so that it can accept parameters from my application.

Good morning, all
I have a really cool Budget report which has two matrices on it. One is used/visible if the user selects four levels of grouping, and one is used if the user selects only three levels of grouping. The four choices for grouping are four fields, Par, FERC, Point, and Resource.
Since grouping is optional, I need a way to pass the parameter for a field that is not grouped on from the main report to the drillthrough report. For example if the user chooses to group on all fields but Point, I need to pass the report parameter that was used by the main report for Point to the drillthrough report as a report parameter.
So, I tried testing the three grouping levels values and if none were equal to "Point" then pass in the parameter by putting the following expression in the Parameter Value box for the Point parameter on the Navigation tab of the datacell of the main report that is the drillthrough link:
=iif(
Parameters!GroupLevel1.Value <> "Point"
and
Parameters!GroupLevel2.Value<>"Point"
and
Parameters!GroupLevel3.Value<>"Point"
,
Join(Parameters!PNTPoint.Value,",")
,
Fields!Point.UniqueName
)
But this is not working; the drillthrough report shows a blank dropdown for the Point parameter and I have to manually set it. Does anyone see an error in the syntax of the iif statement?
Any references, links, resources or good clean jokes would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Kathryn

Desired Action: Report will run in browser, User will choose specific product and Run the report(filter) to show that product relate results.
any help,

Is it possible to add custom controls in for parameters in report manager??
I have a parameter that requires the user to click a button and select a bunch of things in another form. How can i do this in reporting services??
I also would like to change the layout of the parameters toolbar, ie. make text boxes smaller widths, show/hide parameters based on other parameter values.
I know i could write my own web page that does this and hide the parameters toolbar when they run the report, but this would mean that we lose other functionality that report manager has, eg. scheduling.
Does anyone know if customising the report manager will become available in a later version??
Hi
Can enabling the Report Server Execution Log from the Site Settings affect the performance of the reports ?
Thanks
Is there any way to capture Report Model usage?
I was hoping to use the ExecutionLog (along with the RSExecutionLog_Update.dtsx SSIS Package). Closer investigation though shows that when a user executes the report built off the Model it gets logged with a ReportID Guid pointing to the root of the Catalog. Other than the Format being RGDI and the Source being AdHoc, there doesn't appear to be anyway to tell if the user ran this against ReportModel A or ReportModel B.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Rick
I have a report that goes against an Oralce 9i database with 5.5 million rows. The report takes about 4-5 minutes to run in developement (client)?
How can I get the report to run faster?
Faster server
More Bandwidth
Faster client
More memory server
More memory client
If 1 or more of the above in what order of importance.
When deployed and running over the internet how much does bandwidth come into play.
We run at a fairly high rate of speed today I just dont know what it is.
Hi all,
When we use more that one datasets in report, how can we know which dataset will be executed first.
For example if we have added 2 datasets (dataset1 and dataset2) and both of them are using stored procedures.
How can we know whether dataset1 will be executed first or dataset2.
In my case I need to execute one dataset first that loads data to database tables and then want to execute second dataset that calls stored procedure that depends on table data there were filled by first dataset.
Thanks,

Hello.
Every time we try to view reports using Report Manager this error (
Execution 'kj1mek55bmhvft55cihmeb55' cannot be found) is occured. However, we can view reports using ReportViewer control from VS2005 and subscriptions works properly (without this error).
We are using integrated security to login to Report Manager.
Configuration: SQL Server 2005, SSRS 2005 SP1, Windows 2003, IIS 6.0
How can we fix it?
Please let me know if you need any additional information.
Thanks.
Greetings,
I have two reports, Report A and Report B.
Report A has two parameters defined as "Prompted", meaning the report input area is available for the user.
Report A parameters ---> StartDate, EndDate
When Report B invokes Report A using the Jump To Report Functionality and passing Report B's StartDate and EndDate parameters, Report A seems to think the parameters are implied and not needed and fails to drop down the parameter input area.
This is not desired because the user should be able to change report A's parameters.
Anyone know a workaround?
I execute a report in BIDS and I also deploy and execute the same report from the browser. I felt that the report was taking a longer time in report server.
Upon attaching the profiler, I notice that when the report is executed from BIDS, it fires only 4 queries whereas the same report fires 5 queries from report server.
Can it be that BIDS does some type of caching and services the report preview from its own memory without firing the MDX to the server (perhaps because of using local cube concept?)
or (more likely) something is wrong at my end.
I select the option execution from a report (it's in properties option) and then raise an error which says An internal error occurred on the report server. See the error log for more details. (rsInternalError) Get Online Help EXECUTE permission denied on object 'xp_sqlagent_notify', database 'mssqlsystemresource', schema 'sys'.

i hope someone help soon as our work is affected due to this issue

Whenever you connect to a database server that is running SQL 2012 integration services, then you right click on SSISDB, choose "Reports, then Standard Reports, then Executions" there is a display of each execution and options to drill down.
There is a particular execution that when I click to see "All Messages" I get a blank screen in SSMS with the following error: "Error: and error occurred during local report processing. --> An error has occurred during report processing. --> Exception of type 'System.OutOfMemoryException' was thrown."
Before I go add more memory to this SQL box, I need to understand how an out of the box, canned SSRS report such as this, which is built into Integration Services could produce this issue?
I'm trying to do something which I hope can be accomplished relatively simply.
I have a report similar to bank statements let's say. When run, it currently prints out each person's statement into one file, with page breaks sepearating each person's statement. What I need to do, is when the report is run, save each person's report into a seperate file for the purpose of emailing to them later.
I could easily modify my report to just output for one particular person, but I'm not sure if there's a way to "bulk render" all the reports and have them saved to sepearate files.
I should also add that I'm using an MS Access Data Project (ADP) as the front end to my app - connected to a SQL Server 2005 DB. I currently display the reports by embedding a web browser object into an Access form and rendering the report via HTML.
Thanks in advance,

I am running a huge SSRS 2008 report and it gets rendered sometimes and sometimes it gives me an error,"The report execution has expired or cannot be found. (rsExecutionNotFound)”.
When I see SQL Server log after this issue comes I see following message there; "A significant part of sql server memory has been paged out. This may result in performance degradation. Duration: 300 seconds. Working set(KB): 97672, memory utilization 42%" .what is the issue and how to fix it.
ExecutionTime gives server time, How can I get local time ? I'm planning to create a report part and use it across all the reports to display report execution time.
