Hi,
I have cube created, When I use the drill through option for some cells I get the the following message
'Unable to drill through. The operation requested failed due to timeout'
I tried setting connection timeout in the advanced tab of data Link properties to max(at the moment set to 15 seconds), But could not save that. The Analysis manager does not respond.
Any help please.
Thanks

Hi,
I'm using Reporting Services in conjunction with Analysis Services.
The problem I'm having is formatting numbers to be dollar amounts. I know how to set this in Reporting Services and when a data source was regular SQL, then everything was just fine. However, when I switch to Analysis Services the number would just stay the same.
i.e. "60.2" instead of "$60.20". The only thing I can think of is if Analysis Services is returning the number as a string for some reason, and RS won't format strings for currency.
Any thoughts? Thanks!
Hello All,
Our OLAP environment involves an ETL/Data Warehouse/Data Mart server and a cube publisher server.
We would like to learn how to automate the Archival/Restore of OLAP databases. We are currently doing
it manually though OLAP Manager. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. James.

I have SQL Server 7 SP1
OLAP Server SP1
installed on two WIN NT 4 SP5 machines.
On machine 1 I can connect to the locally installed OLAP Server, but cannot connect to machine 2's OLAP server. (and vice versa machine 2 cannot connect to machine1's OLAP server)
The error I am getting is the following:
"Error occurred while connecting to machine2
Cannot open the following registry key on the server computer(machine2):
SOFTWAREMicrosoftOlap ServerServer
Connection Info"
Can anyone give me a clue as to what is going on.
(note: I have tried the 'default' MS troubleshooting method of re-installing - no change)
Thanks
I am trying to access Cube through SSIS and have been unable to set SSIS package with the work around provided here (https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=219068). On pasting the MDX query using the openrowset command on the OLEDB source editor, I get a pop up window with error 0x08000405 and the message that says 'syntax used for openrowset is incorrect'
I also tried running this on SQL Management studio but, get the following error.
OLE DB provider "MSOLAP" for linked server "(null)" returned message "An error was encountered in the transport layer.".
OLE DB provider "MSOLAP" for linked server "(null)" returned message "The peer prematurely closed the connection.".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 3
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSOLAP" for linked server "(null)".
The server where the cube resides is on 64bit machine and I have 32-bit..could this be the reason for the issue?
I found this article on microsoft support website (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947512 ) which describes the possible symptoms and causes for connectivity issues But, couldn't find a work around for it.
Here is the syntax of the query I am using in SSIS and query analyser
SELECT * FROM
OPENROWSET('MSOLAP', 'Integrated Security=SSPI;Persist Security Info=True;Data Source=<SERVERNAME>; Initial Catalog=<Catalog name>;'
,
'MDX Query') AS Rowset_1
Any help with this issue is appreciated!
Thanks,
When someone drills down in a report how can i change the categories that they can see?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have installed OLAP services along with SQL Server 7.0. I want to use the sample MDX application supplied with the CD. When I try to use the dsample application, it comes up with a dialog to enter the server name and gives me an error unable to connect to the OLAP server.
My computer is Windows 98. Do I need to install OLAP Server ? If so how ?
Thank you
I am experiencing some issue with drill through report parameter not getting selected some times.I have two reports parent and child. Both reports have total ten parameters and all are cascading parameters with multiple selection. The report, when drill through to child, first eight parameters selected as it in the parent report.But the ninth parameter not get selected with the default value which from parent report and the parameter populated with values.
The first two parameter type is  date time and rest of them are text and all text type parameters available and default values are populated by query (Data set) only.
I have a requirement where i am converting a Crystal report into SSRS.
My data contains different groups where some of the sections should be suppressed based on Drill down group level.In crystal they are using DrillDownGroupLevel <> 1 .
I have a report  that has a drill down option that shows all workgroups within a specific  parent group and an interactive sorting ass well on both columns  parent group &  workgroupÂ
This is displayed  in pps combined with a SharePoint
The problem is that after sorting the parent group column by name I then press the drill through icon  (+) next to it hopping to see all workgroups related to each parent group - but insteadÂ
I receive this Reporting Services Error  :
The value for parameter 'SortItem' is not specified. It is either missing from the function call, or it is set to null. (rsMissingParameter)
If I don't press the sorting and just drill through it works fine. the sorting itself also works fine.
Any body pls tell me steps to create Drill Down reports in Sql Server 2005 Reporing Services.
If possible give me one example to create Drill down Reports.
Regards.

I'm new to the SSRS reports, I have a Drill Down report in that I had Customer data and its related Accounts are populating while expanding the (+) Customer now I need to add hyperlink to the associated Accounts .. How to achieve this.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi,
I try to load in a C# application a DTS Package containing only one OLAP Task.
But the "LoadFromSQLServer" command hangs for 1h30 before retrieving the DTS Package information.
The same code is working perfectly fine for other DTS Packages.
I have already set the Workflow properties of the DTS task to "execute on main thread". It doesn't change anything.
HELP!!!!
Thanks for listening.

I have a drill through report. I am passing multiple parameter values to my sub report using 'url'.
But I am getting error 'The full path must be less than 260 characters long'.
Hello,
I want to enable a drill down on a parent child hierarchy, just as it is possible in the Analysis Services.
An Example :
Hierarchy in a company : Jack (1) is the boss, Frank (2) and Andy (3) ar the Semi-Bosses , and Julia (4), Jane (5), Henry (6), Michael (7), Will (8) , Dave (9) are normal employees . Timmy(10) is a trainee. Furthermore Frank is responsible for Julia,Jane and Henry and Andy is responsible for Michael WIll and Dave. Dave is responsible for Timmy. So we get the following tree hierarchy structure.
1
2 3
4 5 6 7 8 9
10
My Employee Dimension Attributes : Name, Parent
I want to make a report, where I show the salary of each employee. But at first the user only sees 1, when he drills down he sees 2 and 3, too. When he drills down once more he sees 4 5 6 and 7 8 9, too (The user must be able to recognize which person is responsible for 456 and which for 789). And the last drill down shows 10, for which 9 is responsible ( exactly as it is possible in the analyis Service in the Cubebrowser)
I have read some posts where are MDX examples which are similar to my problem, but they did not solve my problem.
I hope somebody can help me

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have two reports 'Product Details' and 'Sales by Product'
When i click on 'Product ID' field in 'Product Details' report, It has to drill through to 'Sales by Product' which has a parameter 'Product ID' in it.Â

I am having difficulty in exporting a report to Excel that has drill-down grouping created in SSRS 2008 R2. I can export with the report expanded or with just the summary and both look fine, but when it gets to Excel it looses the toggle ability which I need for it to retain.

We have an OLAP Cube which has 126 Levels in it (128 is maximum).
The processing of this cube only works sometimes.
Latest problem is the folling error message when refreshing the cube´s
Data-Source:
Failed to inform the OLAP-Server to refresh the connection to the
'A000S8-DW' data source. (A000S8 is the OLAP-Server-Name)
Error: Cannot open transaction to the server.
Cannot open database 'A000S8' on the OLAP-Server. (There is no A000S8
database on the Server A000S8 !)
When i test the connection in the data-sources-properties-box it says
'TEST Connection succeeded'
Does anybody know what´s wrong ?

I have created a word cloud in SSRS 2008 using Jason Thomas's method but I would like to be able to add an action to click on a word to go to a another report using either the word or an ID integer. how to add an action to go to another report?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI thought the built in expression Level() would show me be drill down level. I can't see to get that to work. I'd like to determine my drill down level so I can hide columns based on that.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI replied to an thread in the pre-2010 forum before I realized the forum I was in...
I'm using Visual Studio 2008 to Design my SSRS reports. The report viewer is using SharePoint 2010 SP1 integrated mode.
I am using a conditional statement to determine which report to drill to based on the SSRS textbox's column.
=iif((Fields!Type.Value =
"Total")OR
(Fields!Type.Value ="Variance - (F)/U"),"DivisionSpendingReport","DivisionSpendingReportDetail")
Works fine in Visual Studio. Once deployed to SharePoint though, the drill through returns an error that says report can't be found. So I added the .rdl to the conditional statement in the report Design.
=iif((Fields!Type.Value =
"Total")OR
(Fields!Type.Value ="Variance - (F)/U"),"DivisionSpendingReport.rdl","DivisionSpendingReportDetail.rdl")
It now works in SharePoint but not in Visual Studio...
Do I need to keep adding and removing the ".rdl" in order to make any changes to this report???!!!
I am using Report Builder 3.0 and i have report which has a drill down group. The report opens in a collapsed form.This report has interactive sorting on a column. But,when we drill down and sort the column, the group collapses and the details disappear.
In some posts, i have seen that instead of interactive sorting, people recommended a parameter. But i have to do interactive sorting only.

Hello,
I would like to know if Reporting Services 2005 is a good tool for making reporting activities on SQL Server 2005 DW and also using OLAP (Analysis Services 2005).
There are any limitations or bugs to using it.
This is good for trends.
Thank, any help will very appreciated.
I have a drill down report which need to be exported to excel. But, when exporting to excel it shows many unwanted blank rows for a particular record due to the drill down option.
Is it possible to remove it?
I need to exclude the rows in yellow color when exporting to excel.
I have a report which takes around 5 seconds when run in BIDS but takes around 20 seconds when deployed on report server.Execution log says TimeDataRetrieval is around 3-4 seconds and  rendering time is around 15-17 secs.From this report I am passing 8 parameters to a  drill through report and there are 36 text boxes where I have defined these parameters for drill through action.All these parameters are populated in main dataset.When I deployed the same report without any drill through action and parameter, it takes 5 seconds.So I am suspecting that because of drill through parameters report is taking more rendering time on server.I am using 2008R2 and IE11.
Is it expected behavior that due to so many parameters for drill through action, report will take more rendering time?If yes, then why is it not taking same time in BIDS?
I am passing a field value from main report to a parameter in a drill through sub report. But some field values contain 'special characters'. Those field values that contain special characters are not working for drill through. Javascript code to include special characters to pass to sub report parameter?
