Writing Reports/Extracting Data/Header Info/Reporting Services (2 Questions Really)
Aug 13, 2007
I have a program where I have to do a weekly data upload of approx 1,500 records. I've written the sql, but need to know how I can add static header text to the SQL statement.
the text I need in the header is Reportname(Static string) + #rows (Rowcount of the sql, int) + department (String static)
I'm planning on writing it and saving it as a package, then schedule it to run every Friday at 5:00. But I have been reading a little on Reporting Services and wonder if people think it' might be the way to go? Is it a whole new area of security issues? Or is it worth installing and learning? I will have more and more reports I need to write that will increase in complexity, and want to know if I want to keep writing querys by hand, or use reporting services.
Thanks in advance!

I have several row groups in a tablix. I want to keep header visible through scrolling.and i also want the first row group to visible, only the first.
So I set the first row group's properties fixedData to TRUE and keep other row groups to FALSE then when running the report i got error "FixedData is not allowed in row TablixMember,unless it is also set on the first row TablixMember"
Now I think this is not possible. or is there anyway to make it works?

I am making a book-like report, I am using a report that has a header and calling a sub-report that has it's own header. However the sub-report header is not showing on the parent report. Parent report header is prevailing over the sub-report. Is it possible to have both headers displaying?

I have deployed Lync 2013 and monitoring which all went through fine. However just one of the monitoring reports (conference join time) shows no data even though there is data within SQL All other reports are fine and all datainformation is displayed. I've tired to publish the reports again but this has not made any difference.

I have a report created using MS SQL Server 2005 reporting services and deployed to the report server. I added a subscription for the report to be scheduled to run and emailed to someone on a regular basis. But now we want the report emailed ONLY when there is data returned. If no data is returned after the report runs then don't email it.
Does anyone know how to do that?
Thanks!

I have published SSRS reports to sharepoint and used the Reporting Services Report viewer to present the reports on a Page.  Everything works fine for the day, however in the morning, when I go to view the page, I get an error messageÂ
The report server cannot process the report. The data source connection information has been deleted. (rsInvalidDataSourceReference)

Hello SQL Server Experts, Data Analysts, and Report Writers et al:
re: Reporting Options with SQL Server
I wanted to propose an offshoot to the pryor thread:
Would anyone take a stab at comparing Access Reports, Crystal Reports,
Cognos or other options to all the Reporting Services and its components offered as part ofSQL Server, especially as to extracting data from SQL Server into a report format?
I guess this is a far as capabilites, ease of use, limitations, and especially formatting
or presentation of the end report product?
Thank you to all, and I hope this is a beneficial discussion to others.

Is there any thing like Report header in SSRS ? As a work around I am using a Rectangle control in the page header which I make visible if page number is 1 otherwise not visible. But if its invisible only the other items in the header seem to move up while the body height remains unchanged which I do not want. I want the body height to increase if the Report header is absent. Please let me know if I am missing something or if the SSRS has something like Report header already.

Is there anyway to create a Report Header in SQL Reporting Services?
I am guessing "no", but I have to at least try and ask away.
Okay, I have had reports where on the first page they want a report header, and then on the 2nd and the consequent pages they want a page header. This is simple, in the Page Header I put the text box(s) for the Report Header in one Rectangle and then the text box(s) for the Page Header in another Rectangle, stack the Rectangles on to of each other, and set the visibility property of the panels accordingly.
I also see on the table control (which I am using on my report), you can set the table header row(s) to either print on every page or only on the first page.
Neither of these options will work for the report I am trying to build based on a Crystal Report.
I have a page header that needs to appear on every page including the first page. It is about 3/8" tall. And then there is a requested report header that should only appear on the first page. The report header is about 2" tall. So if I try my trick I used before, I will have 2" inches of white space on the 2nd and consequent pages. The Report Header would correctly print on the first page, but the size of the Rectangle (even if the visible property is set to false) will still eat up white space.
Is there anyway around this, or will I need to have the users redesign their report to fit SQL reporting services?
Let me know if you have any ideas.
Thank you,
T.J.

We have 2005 Reporting Services fully functional - Dev, QA and prod (farm). I have at least 5 distinct business group trees in my structure, who have inherited or modified security based upon NT Users and AD groups. Now, we want to replace a major group (<domain_name>Domain Users) with a controlled group.
I cannot find anyway to report or map the folders that a specific NT User and AD group has rights. Cannot it be done?

The situation is I need info from a certain SharePoint site that is in a sql database. The problem is The SharePoint site currently contains data from 9 different projects, all using the same database. The database is a complex setup and it would not be an easy operation to extract the special information alone. The database is run with Microsoft SQL and is comprised of 4 separate databases. 3 databases organize the data (500+mb of data total) and 1 stores the data for all the sites (12.5+GB and increasing at a rate of 100-300mb per day).
How can I get the special data I need from this setup???
Please help

I would like to create a group and add an overall header.
So the dimension is grouped and results in the following:
                 Group Title
Dimension 1 Â Â Dimension 1 Â Â Dimension 1 Â Â Dimension 1
Instead of :
Group Title   Group Title   Group Title   Group Title
Dimension   Dimension   Dimension   Dimension
How can I achieve this without using a tablix within a tablix?

I have searched high and low for how to calculate page numbering in the header where the global values do not apply.
I have a report that generates 300+ invoices and I need the page numbers to reflect page x of xx for that invoice only. My report page breaks for each customer invoice. I have found code to get the page number in the header and I have found code to get the total pages in the body. These two solutions cannot be combined.
Has anyone found a workaround in code behind or some other method?I would appreciate any guidance.
Side note: thank you all for all your postings and solutions. They have been highly valuable as I am new to SSRS.

I am  building a report with 3 tablixs using SQL Server 2008. Tablix 3 is long and spans over 3 pages. I am trying to get the header for the  to remain visible on all pages and as we scroll through the end of each page. Now this is a frequently asked question and I have found the approach to achieve the desired results. All approaches involve clicking in the advanced mode of the row and column groups to modify the static and dynamic groups.However, when I click the advanced mode there is no effect. I have attached a picture of the design mode. The tablix3 is grouped by the Department column.

Hi all. I have many concerns on reporting services. Hope you help me alot explaining as I fully undestand it.
1. I am new in reporting services. Anybody can tell me the BIG difference of SQL SP1 and SP2?
2. Can anyone give the SHARED FUNCTION/ aggregate method not being supported by the aggregate functions. (These are the methods written in REPORT CODE)...
3.I have REPORTS(Business Intelligent Project) on my local machine hosted to the report services of the MACHINE SERVER. Then, reports are shown in REPORT VIEWER in my C# WINDOWS application project. My question is : How can other workstations run the same reports(Reports that I made)? We are using Team Foundation Server(TFS) to share the REPORTS and C# application project. I not yet tried to share the report, however I am expecting the report will work in other workstation. Is it?
4. Reporting services will only run in IIS, right? and you need first to RUN the SQL MANAGER, right? I have 10 workstations and 1 SERVER MACHINE. I made the SERVER MACHINE as the report server. Am I doing right? or Am I thinking the right idea/approach? Give me guidance on this...
5. What are the advantages of the reports being hosted to the reporting services? or shall i say, what is the difference of the crystal report to the reports hosted to the reporting services.
.:. Edit...(Added)
6. Can someone tell how to set the datasourcecredential in my c# windows application? I see the methods in MSDN but I really don't know how to use the methods.
7. How to set the reports directly to PRINT LAYOUT MODE if I preview it?
Thanks.

I have an SSRS report I'm working on. Â I have Row Groups plus details.
A) Â How can I get the row group headers to repeat on every line?
B) I would still like to use the drill down, click the plus sign, and have that work when I export to excel.
Here is the report header: URL....My first thought was is there a way simply to cause the header to repeat. Â I cannot find that anywhere to do that.My second though was to split the cells and copy the fields to all the rows.Here is the same header with split cells:URL....two problems.
A) I cannot split one cell; See the "X" in the second capture.
B) How do I still hid the rows until I drill down.

I have a report with two groups and a detail row (subtotals & totals to follow). When I add the child (detail row) it pushes out to the right of the parent column. Is there any way to start the detail row all the way back to the left hand side of the page? I lose a lot or real estate with the group descriptions.

I've got a feeling that the answer is, "can't be done," but I'll go ahead and ask the august members of this forum, anyway. Is it possible to alter the placement of the Parameter fields when previewing a report?
At the moment, it seems that they form in a column of twos, reading from left to right. I see how the ORDER is affected, by changing the order of the parameters in the Report Data window, but can I change the number of columns?

I have created a heat map and it is working pretty well. The only issue I am having is that the expression for the fill is using "DataSet1"
=Code.GetHeatmapColor(sum(Fields!AnnualPremium.Value),Min(Fields!AnnualPremium.Value,"DataSet1",Recursive),
Max(Fields!AnnualPremium.Value,"DataSet1",Recursive))
This is making the heatmap look at the whole dataset instead of just what I am grouping by. Within the Dataset there are Regions and Credit Unions. Since the Dataset is looking at an entire region, the heatmap is coloring based on all data for the region. I need to heatmap to color based on the Credit Unions in that region. The Credit Unions are a group. I need the group to be the value it is referencing in the heat map and not "DataSet1". I have been told to use scope or a variable but cannot get it to work correctly.

I've installed SQL Server Reporting Services and designed few useful reports on local workstation, now I want to deploy those on the production reporting server.
I have the following questions:
1) We have some demo databases with the similar structure so the the same report would fit all the demos.
Is there any way to change the connecting string for the report programmatically without recreating report each time ? May be there is a way to pass database name to the report (encrypted) ? Is there any way to
2) I'd like to be able to protect those reports from unauthorised users ? Is there any way of doing that ? Is there any way to set up security on the base of folder anf for the whole group of reports ?
Thanks

I am using SSRS 2012 RC0 in Visual Studio 2010 sp1 to build this tabular report. I had inadvertently removed the initial header row from my tablix before adding numerous nested groupings to move the column headers to the header section so they would show up on each page.
I would like to reverse that decision, but I seem to be unable to now re-add that header row back to my tablix. In older versions of SSRS, I was able to right click on the table and then click on insert row-->Header row but that does not seem to be possible in ssrs 2012.. I tried adding a outer row to my top most grouping, but that option was grayed out.
How I can add my header row back to my table.

A couple questions about SQL Server Reporting Services:
1. Can it be used for other data sources besides SQL Server (Oracle db, XML files, via APIs, etc.)?
2. Can it do ad hoc reporting? I like the "universes" that the SAP Business Objects product allows. Does Reporting Services have something like this, to provide a simplified view that non-technical business users can use to create their own reports? Or is Reporting Services just the equivalent to Crystal Reports?
(I wanted to post this in the general MSDN forum for SQL Server, but I can never log in there for some reason.)

Hello, we have a customer-facing ASP.NET web reporting application that allows the user to a). select a report b). make report settings (filter, sort, include/exclude columns), and c). run the report. An Oracle stored proc is used to return the data into a DataSet. Today the output is displayed in a bound, paginated DataGrid.
We€™d like to €˜plug-in€™ Reporting Services for improved formatting, grouping, matrix reporting, drilldown, graphics, etc.. I have read through the online docs, examples, and tutorials but have not found the exact (high-level) information I€™m looking for.
We need to keep our report settings page, Oracle SP architecture, etc... Is there a way to simply hand off a dynamically created DataSet to a report for display €“ like binding to the DataGrid? The data (query) would be specific to a report but columns can be selected/unselected for display.
In terms of deployment, is it necessary to install SQL Server in each environment (DEV-Integration, QA, PROD) to support Reporting Services? Since we are essentially an Oracle shop, this could be a tough sell. Is it possible to develop the report on a dev workstation (perhaps with SQL Server), and then publish to a web server where SQL Server is not installed?
These are obviously high-level questions - any help will be appreciated (examples, how-to's, etc..) €“ thanks in advance.
-Bill
