Use Report Server Project To Connect To Report Model Project Data Source View?
Jan 17, 2008
Hello,
I've created a Report Model Project that can be used by Report Builder to generate ad-hoc reports. I'm trying to create a connection string in my Report Server Project that points to the Report Model Project data source view.
All I can do is create a regular datasource, which bypasses the metadata contained in the Data Source View.
Basically I want my Report Server Project and my Report Builder reports to leverage the same metadata. Is this possible? If so how do I get the connection string?
Thanks!!

I have an existing project with the data source and report folder with working reports. I need to create a model for other department members to use Report Builder, not Business Intelligence Developer Studio, to develop their reports from. How do I add a data source view and report model folder to the project so I can then create a view and model?

We've built an oltp that uses nothing but synonyms that reach out to various DB's in the organization thru linked servers.
The issue that we are having is Data Source Views can only see tables and views. Is it possible to use synonyms? If not what would be a work around.
Please advise. Thanks

Hi all,
I desperately need to setup the AD-HOC reporting on SQL server 2005.
I think one of the templates that I need is in Business Intelligent Project Templets Reporting Model Template in Visual Studio Templates.
But I do not see it in there.
Can some one please let me know where can I get the Reporting Model Template, or a link to where I can download or how to create it.
Thanks or any help.

I have a datasource view DSV1. It points to a datasource DS1 that is considered the "primary".
I have created a Report Model that uses DSV1 (and thus uses DS1)
I created a new datasource, DS2 that I would like to use instead of DS1. (I can't just modify DS1 because if I modify it, it will overwrite it when we go to our Production environment and break that datasource)
So, I can go into DSV1 and change all the references from DS1 to DS2.
But that's where the problem lies.
When I try to build, I get the following error:
"The Table property of the Entity "E1" refers to the Table "dbo_View", which is not in the primary data source."
Somehow, the entity is tied to the "primary" datasource. When I change it back to DS1, everything works fine. Any thoughts? What can I do?

Hi everyone!,
Our team is new to SSRS and we are trying to figure out how to refresh the data source view, autogenerate the corressponding report model and Re-Deploy the Report Model (rewrite existing Report Model) on the server on a periodoc basis or trigger the whole action whenever there is a change in the database on some specific tables.
We prefer to do this action through a Agent job ( a diff approach is also welcome).
Are there any stored procs out there?
Appreciate your time.

Before I start coding ...
Is there any existing software/trick/hack to create a Report Project from the DataSources and Folders/Reports on a Report Server, i.e. the inverse of Deployment?
Would there be anybody interested in such a thing, and, if not, why not?

I've been doing research on the web trying to find if it's possible to create a Report Model that is based on a Data Source that is NOT SQL Server and NOT SSAS.
Specifically I'd like to be able to build a Report Model on a Web Server (or multiple web services).
Does anyone have any information relating to this? Based on my research it looks like there's a few interfaces that need to be implemented (such as ISemanticModelGenerator, etc.).
I did find a post relating to using ODBC data sources for a Report Model and the recommended solution was Linked Tables in SQL Server or UDM in SSAS. Both cases don't look feasible for a Web Service-based Data Source.
Thanks,
Jeremy Wiebe

Hi,
I have created and deployed a data source (which uses "Credentials supplied by the user running the report") and a model which uses this data source.
Also I have built a report using Report Builder and all works well.
Now I wish to use Visual Studio to build a report, so I'm trying to create a data source from my computer which the report should use and I want it to use the model on the remote server. In the Report Wizard I am using "Report Server Model" and the following connection string:
Server="http://<remoteserver>/reportserver";datasource="/Models/MyModel"
IHowever I can't make the credentials to work. I've tried them all with no luck. What username/password must I use? Because so far nothing of what I have tried works.
Any help is highly appretiated.
Kind Regards,
Robert

For some reason in a Team Foundation Team Project that has multiple project types (SSRS, SSIS, WebSite, C# Business DLL...), the SSIS project makes itself the startup project to the team project. If I explicitly set another project as the startup project to the team project and then select an SSIS package in the SSIS project in the team project, the SSIS project becomes the startup project automatically.
I am using Visual Studio 2005 SP1.

Hi,
I've used the Dec CTP of SQL 2005 SP2 to create a Report Server Project.
In this project, I can create an XML datasource and successfully use that datasource in a report published on Sharepoint using the new Sharepoint AddIn.
I've also used Dec CTP of SQL 2005 SP2 to create a Report Model Project.
In this project I can create SQL Data Sources, DataSource Views andReport Models which I deploy to sharepoint and create a report builder based report from.
What I can't do is create an XML based datasource in a Report Model Project. Also, if I create one solution containing both types of project, the Report Model Project Data Source Wizard suggests I can create a data source based on an existing data source in my solution. What I find is that my XML data source from the Report Server Project is not listed. In fact even if I create a SQL data source in the Report Server Project that isn't available either.
Please let me know what should work now/RTM.
Thanks
Martin

I am not sure if this is possible or not, but I have to at least ask.
I have a SQL Reporting Services project that has a QA server version and then a Production server version. So when requested changes are made to the reports, I make the changes in Visual Studio and then push to QA. After the changes have been tested and approved, I then push the changes to the Production server.
I have come across an issue, where requested changes were made in Visual Studio (a lot of changes), and pushed to QA. The users now have changed their minds and they want instead to stay with what is in production. So, I am looking for a way to recover the report file on the production web server, bring it back into my visual studio project to replace the report that I had changed.
Is this possible, or will I have to start over and step one and reverse the changes in Visual Studio.
Let me know.
Thank you,
T.J.

I am new to SSIS.
I came across the following article:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms139848(SQL.90).aspx
It states that:
"A data source can be defined one time and then referenced by connection managers in multiple packages. You use a data source object in a package by adding a connection manager that references the data source object to the package. There is no dependency between a data source and the connection managers that reference it."
I have created a data source (DS1) and set it to point to a database say DB1. In the connection managers area, I create a connection manager CM1 using the datasource DS1.Now I edit DS1 to point to a different database DB2. When I open CM1 however it€™s still pointing to DS1.
I guess this is because it€™s said that there is no dependency between the connection manager and data source. My question is what exactly is the advantage of using a data source?

How does the report model know what data source view to use? I could not find it defined anywhere in the .smdl file.
My problem is this. I have a Report Model project with two data sources, two data source views and multiple report models. When I try and bind a data source to an entity in the report model I do not get to choose which data source view to use to choose what table/view I want to bind the entity too and only the tables in one of my DSV's shows up. When I first created it, it worked fine. It automatically selected the correct view and table and was successfully created but now when I open the project, that correlation is lost.
Any suggestions or help is appreciated, thanks.

When I try to convert a report project from 2005, it seems to convert fine but then the project closes because VS2008 doesn't support that project type (.rptproj ?). I see that there is a report project type under VB (and I assume C#) but there is no Business Intelligence project catagory. It's a new machine and I did install SQL Server 2005 before VS2008.
I'm in the process of moving a bunch of projects and websites from another machine and got hung up on this one. Any pointers greatly appreciated.

Hi, when I try to open up an existing report project in VS 2005 then open the report template it will guide me to the Layout tab. Once I change the tab to Data, the following error showed up with an OK button:
TITLE: Microsoft Report Designer
------------------------------
The data extension SQL was not found in the configuration file RSReportDesigner.config.
Add the extension to the configuration file before proceeding or choose another data extension.
------------------------------
I tried creating a new dataset on the Data tab, the "Command Type" section use to have 2 selection: Text and Storeprocedure type. But now the Storeprocedure type is missing. I tried uninstall VS 2005 & SQL Server 2005 Components and reinstall them the same error still occurs.
I have no idea how to solve it, anyone encounter the same problem or able to help out please do so. Thanks in advance.

I can pass a parameter from an Access Query to an Access Report (MDB) by entering [Select Date] in the Query criteria and by placing an unbound control with a control source =[Select Date] on the report. I can't get this to work from a SQL Function Criteria to an unbound control on the Access Data Project Report. In the Function Criteria, I enter @SelectDate. In the Report control, I enter @SelectDate and it gives me an 'Invalide Column Name' error. Any idea how I can pass a parameter from a SQL Function to an ADP report?
THANKS!
p.s. I tried searching for other postings on this without any luck.

Adding a value to a non-queried default report parameter value does not update on the target server after deployment.
To recreate
1. Create a report in Visual Studio and add a report parameter with the following properties:
Multi-value is checked
Available values = "From Query"
Dataset = [create a dataset that returns a table w/ a Id and Description column]
Value field = [the Id field from the table]
Label field=[the Description column from the table]
Default values = "Non-queried" (add several values the match the IDs from the table so that some of the values in the report dropdown will show up as checked when rendering the report)
2. Build and deploy the report to the reporting server. View the report and verify the specified items are checked in the report parameter.
3. Go back to Visual Studio and add a value to the Non-queried Default values.
4. Build and deploy the report again. View the report. The newly added item is not selected.
Notes
I verified that the newly added ID exists in the rdl file (as xml) on both the development box and the server where the report was deployed. However, when I view the report parameter using Management Studio (connect to the reporting server), the newly added value for the report parameter does not exist. I verified that changes are being deployed by adding new parameters and changing other properties of the parameter. I thought maybe the rdl itself was being cached somehow - I tried restarting IIS, SQL Server, and SQL Reporting services. None worked. Note that running the report on the development box by running the project through Visual Studio DOES reflect the change to the parameter.
Work-arounds
1. Create a dataset for the report that returns a table of the Ids that you want pre-selected. The query could be something like this:
SELECT '4' AS SelectedId
UNION
SELECT '5' AS SelectedId
UNION
SELECT '6' AS SelectedId
2. Delete the report in Management Studio, then redeploy.
I have issue w/ both workarounds because for 1) it is not intuitive and you have to remember to do this for every similar case, and 2) this extra step has to occur each time the report is deployed w/ changes to the report parameter.
