Subscription Issue With Null Default Parameter - Key Cannot Be Null
May 3, 2007
I have a report that is run on a monthly basis with a default date of null. The stored procedure determines the month-end date that it should use should it be sent a null date.
The report works fine when I tell it to create a history entry; however, when I try to add a subscription it doesn't appear to like the null parameter value. Since I have told the report to have a default value of null it doesn't allow me to enter a value on the subscription page.
Now, I suppose I could remove the parameter altogether from the stored proc, but then the users would never be able to run the report for a previous time period. Can someone explain to me why default values aren't allowed to be used on subscriptions when they seem to work fine for ad hoc and scheduled reports? This is really quite frustrating as most of my reports require a date value and default to null so that the user doesn't have to enter them for the latest data.
An internal error occurred on the report server. See the error log for more details. (rsInternalError) Get Online Help
Key cannot be null. Parameter name: key

I have a data-driven subscription (DDS) stored procedure that gets called when a subscription fires and returns parameters to a report. One of the parameter values I want to return is NULL, which also happens to be the default value of the corresponding report parameter.
When I set the report parameter to use the default value (NULL) when setting up the subscription in Report Manager, the subscription works fine. When I try to pass the NULL value from the DDS proc to the report, the subscription fails.
I do not know what the error logs say. I've rarely looked at them and what I have seen seems a bit cryptic. I've narrowed down through trial-and-error that passing the NULL value is the issue.
Has anyone else experienced this issue and do you have a resolution?
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Hello
I've written a stored procedure with 4 parameters
create procedure dummy
( @a int, @b int, @c varchar(50), @d varchar(50))
now from front end(I'm using c#.net)
I want to send the values according to some criteria
So in the process...I've only values for @a & @c ...
so In order to reduce the code of sending Null values explicitly to other parameters...
can't I set like default values for it so that If I don't send values to certain parameters it will have the default value or Null value.
like I want something like this:
create procedure dummy
( @a int NULL, @b int NULL, @c varchar(50) NULL, @d varchar(50) NULL)

I have a report with datetime parameter which is required to be optional (there should be an option not to select this parameter which would cause in not narrowing result of this report by this parameter).
I used datetime parameter
@daTo (to have the calendar control for selecting date) and check on "Allow Null" value. Here is default Value.
I've also tried to set DefaultValue expression was "=Nothing".
IN my query of data set, here is the part I use the parameter @daTo
... Where (@daTo IS NULL OR TRUNC(@daTo) >= TRUNC(pe.start_time) ....
But when I run the report, I got below error:
ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes: expected DATE got NUMBER
I think it @daTo value actually not null so it try to TRunc the value
I don't know how to set null value default in my report.

In my report i have CNAME parameter , which allows null value. I checked Allow null value check box in report parameter properties.
when i preview the report , it displays checked NULL check box beside CNAME parameter . I want to give some meaningful name(i.e.ALLCustomers) to this checkbox instead of NULL.
Is it possible through SSRS designer?

I have 595 default constraints in my database. I can return a list of them using the following:
select * from sys.default_constraints
Is there a way I can return a list of just the ones where NULL is still allowed? I want to update all of the columns with a default value to not allow NULLs.

Hey. I need to substitute a value from a table if the input var is null. This is fine if the value coming from table is not null. But, it the table value is also null, it doesn't work. The problem I'm getting is in the isnull line which is in Dark green color because @inFileVersion is set to null explicitly and when the isnull function evaluates, value returned from DR.FileVersion is also null which is correct. I want the null=null to return true which is why i set ansi_nulls off. But it doesn't return anything. And the select statement should return something but in my case it returns null. If I comment the isnull statements in the where clause, everything works fine. Please tell me what am I doing wrong. Is it possible to do this without setting the ansi_nulls to off??? Thank you
set ansi_nulls off
go
declare
@inFileName VARCHAR (100),
@inFileSize INT,
@Id int,
@inlanguageid INT,
@inFileVersion VARCHAR (100),
@ExeState int
set @inFileName = 'A0006337.EXE'
set @inFileSize = 28796
set @Id= 1
set @inlanguageid =null
set @inFileVersion =NULL
set @ExeState =0
select Dr.StateID from table1 dR
where
DR.[FileName] = @inFileName
AND DR.FileSize =@inFileSize
AND DR.FileVersion = isnull(@inFileVersion,DR.FileVersion)
AND DR.languageid = isnull(@inlanguageid,null)
AND DR.[ID]= @ID
)
go
set ansi_nulls on

I have a table that has a date field that can't be null. When a new record is created, if a date is not passed in, I want the default to be the current date. How can I set that? I tried Now, Today, GetDate, etc. Diane

Hi
I have a table with the list of employee and 15 column with data type float or money , that represent the number of hours, airfare,gas,parking food, etc....
I have 2 choice:
-Put 0 as a default value for each column, like that I do not have to use coalesce when I do SUM for each column.
-Leave the default value null but I will have to use coalesce.
In term of performance, what is the best solution?
Thanks

I have defined 8 varchar columns as not null with default, i.e.
[Namad8] [varchar](40) COLLATE Latin1_General_CI_AS NOT NULL DEFAULT (' '),
I run a script transformation (Flat file source, OLE DB dest) that splits a crlf delimited field an array, and then loads each array element into one of the not null table columns as above. However there may be less than 8 elements present in the input field, which means the remaining columns are not populated.
When I run the data flow task, I get the error
"
Error: 0xC020901C at Capture Assessments, OLE DB Destination 1 [1]: There was an error with input column "Namad8" (24) on input "OLE DB Destination Input" (14). The column status returned was: "The value violated the integrity constraints for the column.".
I know I'm trying to insert a null value into the column, but my understanding was that SQL would default the column to spaces. If I define the column to allow nulls, the data flow works fine.
Any idea what I'm doing wrong here?

hi,
I am using sql as a back-end server. My application requires to insert a default string values when the user do not provide any input or if the inpur is NULL. I have used the following code, but the defaul values are not inserted. I am not getting the desired result.

how can you alter a table so that you can add a default value whenever the field is NULL? for example, whenever the table is brought up in a query, NULL is replaced with UNKNOWN

Hi,
I am starting to use reporting services and I created a report that takes 4 parameters for a Filter on the dataset.
The idea is the create snapshot nightly and then display the report filtered based on parameters to users.
I'd like that the filter be ignored for a parameter if the parameter is passed as NULL,
Right now I defined it this way :
Left =Fields!RegionCode.Value
Operator =
Right =IIF(IsNothing(Parameters!RegionCode.Value),Fields!RegionCode.Value,Parameters!RegionCode.Value)
I do this for the 4 parameters that are passed, if they are null, make then equals to the field.
I was wondering if there is a way to ignore the whole parameter all together, I would guess it'll be faster to execute.
Thanks

I have a Nullable columns. I want the value to be zero if NULL is passed.
1) having a view for every such table,
2) using ISNULL for needed columns in that view
3) using those view for inserts instead of using tables directly.
This way i can reduce the number of places to use ISNULL in all my SPs.I dont want to make it to NOT NULL, as my application impact will be high. And Default constraint does not work here.

I have a datatable : Data_Table and a look up table: Lk_table. Myfield that I
use in Inner Join is defined in both the
data and look table.
So I build my query like this:
SELECT * FROM dbo. Data_Table INNER JOIN
dbo. Lk_table ON dbo.Data_Table.MyField = dbo.Lk_table.Myfield
The pb, sometimes I
have myfield still with its default null value in the datatable: Data_Table.
So, I end up getting 0 record when I execute the query shown above.
How do I turn that around so that even if myfield in Data_Table
is Null, I still get the records from Data_Table. (I don t want a set of
records including all possible values from the look up table: Lk_Table)

Hello,
I have a BIT column which accepts NULL values.
What would be a good method to allow an INSERT (or UPDATE) statement to insert NULL into this column but then automatically change the NULL to 0 (zero). In other words, test for NULLs after INSERT (or UPDATE) and change the value to 0 (zero).
Not exactly sure how to do this with a Trigger. Also, what is that [Formula] option used for (column properties in the Table Design view)... and would this apply with my problem?
Thanks,

Hi,
I have the following problem: I'm connected to flat file source and trying to read data that is later inserted in an MS Access database. Everything wokrs fine instead of one thing - when I have null values in the flat file, I want those NULL values to be inserted in the MS Access db, instead of that what happens is that I actually get the default values for a column type from the flat file and later insert that defalut value. For example if I have a null value in an four-bite-signed-integer column of the flat file, I get 0 as value.
I thouth of solution using a "Derived Column" transformation which can transform the zeros into nulls, but decided to check with you guys if there is a smarter thing to do (for example to edit the flat file source to read the NULLs correctly).
Any advice is appreciated! Many thanks

Hi,
I have a data transform from a flat-file to a SQL server database.
Some of the flat-file fields have NULL values. The SQL table I'm
importing into does not allow NULL values in any field, but each field
has a Default value specified.
I need to have it so that if a null value comes across in a field using
the data transform, it takes the table default on import. I could of
sworn I had this working a few days ago, but I get errors now that
state I'm violating table constraints. Has anyone done this before?
Thanks
Jeff

I have a sql proc. I need to make a parameter optional. I've setup the parameter to use a dataset as its source, and I need NOT to allow the value to be null. I've NOT selected allow nulls check box, But, when the parameter is null (‘’), still data comes back in a table as empty or if it is date will default to 1/1/1900. How do I send a null value to the database through sql proc and raise an error without inserting a null value? I’m hoping to avoid creating a special query just for that purpose.
Thanks.

I Created a Procedure that Generates an ID value based in the current Date (Year/Month) and a value which are stored in a table. This ID value is update in the table, and passed on to an output parameter as folows:
Code Snippet
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[CNSPGetNewGuideID]
@SectionID bigint
,@Year bigint
,@Month bigint
,@ID bigint output
AS
BEGIN
(...)
SELECT @ID = [Year]* 10000000 + [Month] * 100000 + [Number]
FROM [dbo].[CNGuideID]
WHERE [Year] = @Year
AND [Month] = @Month
print 'New ID : '
print @ID
END
This is working and the value printed here is the correct one.
but when I execute the procedure inside another one, the variable i pass on as an output parameter remains NULL...
Code Snippet
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[CNSPInsertNewGuide]
@SectionID int
,@ClientID int
,@UsuaryID bigint
,@UsuarySectionID int
,@ID int OUTPUT
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @Date as datetime
DECLARE @Year as int
DECLARE @Month as int
SET @Date = GetDate()
SET @Year = YEAR(@Date)
SET @Month = MONTH(@Date)
EXEC CNSPGetNewGuideID @sectionID,@Year,@month,@ID
(...)
I also tried just declaring a variable and executing the procedure but the same thing happens
Code Snippet
declare @ID2 bigint
EXEC CNSPGetNewGuideID 06,2008,03, @ID2
print 'ID : '
print @ID2
this is the result I get:
New ID :
20080300030
ID :
I must be missing something...
Can anyone help?
thanks.

Hi all,
I'm passing a list of values to a stored procedure using an XML parameter - using SQL 2005.
The stored procedure is used to search a table for matching values so this list can contain one or many values, or could be NULL to indicate all values should be returned.
Returning one or more than one value works fine in the code sample given below. How can I phrase my query to cope with the scenario of the parameter being NULL to select all values?
I currently have the following code to cope with one or many values being passed:
Code Snippet
SELECT * FROM dbo.MyTable
WHERE idField IN
(SELECT paramvalues.id.value('.', 'int') FROM @testxml.nodes('/rootnode/idfieldvalue') as paramvalues(id))
where @testxml is the XML parameter passed into the stored procedure.
Thanks as always

In the report I created, there is a drop down used as a parameter, i.e. Sector.
This drop down gets populated with data. It also has <Select a Value> in there.
When no item is selected, i.e. only <Select a Value> is shown in the drop down list, when the view Report button is clicked, the message says:
Please select a value for the parameter 'Sector'
The view Report used a stored procedure which allows null for this Sector parameter.
The SP does work fine in the sql server query analyser because it returns data with and without the sector parameter.
Any thoughts please?
Thanks
