I want to create a new report model project, however in VS Business intelligence Development Studio, I could find the report model template in the New project dialog box. Anyone coulf tell me how can I add the templeate? Thanks
When I launch Visual Studio 2005 and choose to start a new project...I expect to see "Report Model" as an available template (at least that is what my book says).
How can I install this?
Why is it missing? Is it due to the order of my installations? I installed RS first then Visual Studio.
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.
student - sno (pk), sname subjects - subno(pk), subname marks - sno(fk), subno(fk), marks
While creating the report model:
1.Created the data source - no problem 2. created the data source view - no problem added all 3 tables here. 3. created the report model - only subject and student show up here. Where is the marks table?
When I add a certain Table into my report model, one of the fields is not automatically converted into an attribute, but I'm not sure what the exact pattern is.
This table has 3 fields as its key, two of them get included and one does not. The one that does not, is also added as a Role as it is used in a relationship within the DSV (Data Source View).
Does anyone know what rules BIS (Business Intelligence Studio) uses in deciding which fields to automatically convert using the wizard and which to skip?
Perhaps I'm doing something wrong, or there is a workaround?
If anyone can shed any light in the issue, I'd greatly appreciate their comment.
I have installed SQL Server 180 day evaluation as well as SQL Server Express but I cannot add a new SSIS project because the template is not there (- in the non-express instance - only Reporting Services). When I try and redo the SSIS part of setup(Add/Remove programs) the report tells me that it is already installed correctly. I have searched for others having this problem to no avail...
I am using VS 2003 Enterprise Architect edition and found out that my BI project template is missing. It could be caused by the fact that I had installed SQL Server Reporting Service before I installed VS 2003. Is there anyway I can recover this site template so I can start my RS project? Cheers!
I have three types of specific reports that i have to create with the input parameters (range) either
1: By date (rdl 1)
2.By Month (rdl 2)
3.By Year (rdl 3)
Is it possible ( or how do I ) to create just one report template ( one rdl) with the three sets of parameters ( hiding/invisible which ever two sets base on user selection) and the output of the report will display the desired type( either by year, month or date).
I ask this because its possible to create a drill down report from year down to date etc in report designer (vs 2005). Not sure if I can create one instead of three rdls and with the 'logic' built within that template.
HI I want to create a report template in SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services. The template will have a fixed header and footer.I want to use this template in all my reports. How to do so?
CREATE SESSION MINING MODEL test ( HCVS_MemberId Text KEY, HCVS_MeasureDate_Float LONG KEY TIME, HCVS_MeasureDate Date Discrete, SysPressure LONG CONTINUOUS PREDICT, DiaPressure LONG CONTINUOUS PREDICT, Pluse LONG CONTINUOUS PREDICT ) USING Microsoft_Time_Series ;
How do I specify that I would like to Mean to fill the gap of missing values?
I would like to be able to modify the basic report template offered by Report Builder , so as to be able to include custom fields that I would like to be present in every report (Company name , Logo , Date , etc) to achieve consistency in the presentation of the reports created with Report Builder
In Bob's Blog he explained how to include RDL expressions in Report Builder http://blogs.msdn.com/bobmeyers/archive/2006/03/26/561147.aspx
What I would like to do is to use that technique (if possible) to modify the original template or templates offered by Report Builder to include my own fields.
============================================
I will appreciate some comments or suggestions about other approaches that can be used to address the issue mentioned in the first paragraph .
is it possible to create a report server project template ? This project must have 2 datasources and 1 specific report I wanted to use the Export Template, but it isn't available. I can only use it in Developpement Studio not in BIDS.
I have problem with report. I create report that retrieve data depend on parameter that application pass to it. At first it worked fine. After couple of times that I run my report for different parameters for test results that I get, report start return only template without no data. I don't change nothing in report , but it stop to work right way even for parameters that I pass at first.
Been practicing DR strategies with a test SQL instance by following the scenarios listed here: [URL] ....
> Took a backup of the Model database > Stopped SQL Server > Deleted model database data & log file > Started SQL Server and it obviously wouldn't start because TempDB needs a model database present. > Started SQL instance with trace flags 3608 & 3609 > Connected to SQL instance using command prompt. > Issued restore command but was met with this error:
Shared Memory Provider: The pipe has been ended. Communication link failure
And found this in the SQL log..

We are working on a some required report templates and we are in a some deadlock now... We need to desing report templates something like on the image below. There are some data at the left and top (grey rectangles) and dynamic information from a datasource in the middle (actually a list - green rectangles). Our idea was to use a subreport to design required list, but the problem is that subreport does not support multi-columns layout (really very 'interesting' limitation from Microsoft's guys)... Does somebody have a some ideas how to design this report using MS SQL Reporting Services 2005?
I want to use this as the data from which to build a report model. As linked servers don't show up in the Data Source View wizard, I created a view in SQL Server:
create view MyExcel as select * from XL_SPS_1...Sheet1$
Okay, great, now the view shows up in the DSV wizard and I can create the data source view. However, when I create a new report model based on this data source view, the Report Model Wizard tells me at "Create entities for all tables" that I've got an error when it processes dbo_MyExcel that "Table does not have a primary key."
I assume this is where the identifying attributes for the entities in the report model are taken from, so I really can't go further. Does anyone have an idea as to how to add a primary key to a linked server (Excel) in SQL 2005? Can this be done? Other than importing spreadsheet data to a SQL table, how can I get around this?
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:
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.
I've created dsv that contain all fields from table database. in the smdl I've remove some fileds due to security. All fields in the smdl do not contain drill.
Issue: When I created calculated field in the report builder the field has a link. When I clicked the drill I saw all the record data including field that not in the smdl.
Questions:
1) Can I remove the link from the calculated fields?
2) Can I prevent from users drill to fields that not in the smdl?
Is it possible to dynamically refresh the report model of the report builder?
could it even be using code with any of the interfaces?
When we add a table or add a column to the table in database , will the report model get refreshed automatically or do we need to do it externally. If so, can we use any of the objects and write a custom code in VB.
Semantic query execution failed. The 'PerspectiveID' custom property for the 'query' perspective is either not set or is not set to the string data type.
Hi, I'm having problems navigating from one report to another one if the second report has a multi-valued report parameter. When I navigate to the second report, I don't pass any parameters, but I get an error "parameter is missing a value" for the multi-valued report parameter. I have it setup as allow "multi-value" and "blank value". Any idea what the issue might be? Thanks.
I have a report model that I am trying to deploy using report manager web service. A folder is created by the administrator to place all my SSRS reports. I deployed .rdl files using the "Upload file" function in "Report Manager". All the SSRS reports work fine but when I tried to upload .smdl file (report model file) using the Report Manager's "Upload file" function it gave me the following error message.
The permissions granted to user 'xxxxxxman' are insufficient for performing this operation. (rsAccessDenied)
Does this mean I only have permission to upload .rdl file but NOT .smdl file to my designated folder?
I'm having some difficulty linking a custome drilldown or clickthroug report to another report that I have already created in report builder. I followed a MSDN article found at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms345226.aspx but I cannot find the " Select a page area, select Drill-through reports" option in report manager. Does anyone have a better explanation on how to do this? I'm assuming that when you create the clickthrough report there has to some sore of filter on it that relates to the item of the clickthrough. I guess I'm I little confused, any help would be great. Thanks.
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?
Is there an API or a way to consume a Report Model? I want to try and roll my own simple web-based / thin-client Report Builder without using the ClickOnce control.
Here is one scenario. There is category X which has subcategories A,B,C,D. A has 5 products and B has some 7 products, C 5 products and D has some 12 products. My problem is I need create a Report model where is if we select X all the list of subcategories and their products should be displayed. I.e if we select X then A 1
2 3
4 5 B 1 2 3 4 5 C and so on..........every thing should be displayed that are under category, i.e subcategories under that category and the products under each subcategory of that category.
Can anyone please help me out to create a Report Model to generate ad hoc reports
I created a report model and deployed it. When I open the rpt builder on web I get the following error.
'The selected data source does not have and content available'
Seemed like it would be a easy issue, but I cannot retrieve any data in the rpt model. The datasource I'm using does work for rpts not associated with the rpt model. Any suggestions? It seems like I've missed a step. Thanks, Lisa
