How to sync ReportServerDB with SharepointContentDB?

$
0
0

Hi All,

we use Report Server 2008 (integrated in SharePoint 2007).

How can I ensure that the ReportServerDB (especially Catalog table) keep up-to-date with the SharepointContent DB?http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb283153%28v=sql.100%29.aspx

In SharePoint 2010, there is a Report Server File Sync Feature which gets activated in Sharepoint?http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff487862.aspx

But how to do that in Sharepoint 2007? Need more frequent sync of the databases.

Thks in advance.

Regards,

Vanilla


SSRS Filters

$

0

Hi 

I am struggling to get this working.  I have 2 filters.  Basically what I do is that I populate all the 2nd filter depending on the first data.

So my query is something like this for filterdataset2.  

Select * from table

where column in (@filter1).

It populates correctly but the problem is that it does not default, meaning that you have to still select 'Select All' and then run the report.  But I want it, when you select the filter1 it automatically generates  the report

Please help.

Kind Regards,

Michael

Report Builder 3.0: Display two charts (column and line ) on same axis

$
0
0

I am sorry if this question has been asked before... I cannot find the answer...

I am using Report Builder 3.0. My data is very simple:

Chart Data:

Values: Sum([Efficiency])

Category Groups: Month (fx =MonthName(Month(Fields!Accounting_Month.Value))  )  sorting:  Month(Fields!Accounting_Month.Value)

Series Groups: Year

The users can select either all the organizational units or a specific org unit

I would like to display on the same plot area (same axis) the above column chart as well as a line chart that is the average efficiency over all years per month for all the organizational units (line chart is independent of selected org unit, it is the same for all selection).

I tried several things without any success. I even tried two separate datasets but all I get is two independent plots one with the column chart and one with the line chart.

I would appreciate some help as I am new in Report Builder (3.0)

Thank you

Data Driven Subscriptions "The maximum number of concurrent connections as exceeded a limit"

$

Hi,

My set up is: SQL Server 2008 R1 32bit.

What i am trying to do is set up a data driven subscription service that will automatically email approx 2000 students an individualised copy of their exam timetable (I work at a college). (I'm actually trying to use Data driven subscriptions to send out lots of different types of reports automatically to email addresses, these include confirmation of enrollment reports, timetable reports and a whole manner of different reports to our students. We have around 5000 students in total ... So i guess that would be the maximum number that we would be emailing.

Data driven subscription services seems to do this extremely well, except after about the first 100 emails it sends it stops sending and all i get is the error from the SMTP server

"The message could not be sent to the SMTP server. The transport error code was 0x800ccc67. The server response was 421 4.3.2 The maximum number of concurrent connections has exceeded a limit, closing transmission channel".

Unfortunately the SMTP server is out of my control, and I've had a look around on topics and they all suggest that the maximum number of concurrent connections should be set higher to the max number of recipients ..... however this isn't really an option as I don't have control over this server and settings.

My question is this, is there anything that can be set in SSRS to limit the number of concurrent connections its making to the email server? Can it be set to send just a few emails at a time?? It doesn't matter that this would take a while to get through them all, it would be fine if it took hours or even days to send as at the moment its just falling over because its trying to send all at once.

Any help will be very much appreciated

Paging Report manually without wizard

$

0

I don't think this question has actually been answered before but if it has, pardon my bandwidth.  I have the following report layout:

I'd like for this report to break on Customer, but I'm not using customer in the body of the report. I use a rectangle section to incorporate the sub-reports which use different datasets but they all have the customer number in common.  So I want all the data in the rectangle section and the header to reflect each customer (one per page) in my report. Is this possible in SSRS?  It seems like there is no way other than using the wizard to create this type of grouping for page breaks.

Thanks in Advance for any assistance anyone can provide.

Report not displaying properly

I have built a report in Visual Studio 2010 for SSRS 2008. The fields are all bound to the data set. When we run the report, the output is what we expect. When we export to pdf, Excel, or even Word the output is what we expect. However, when we export to a csv file, we get a strange issue: the output does not match the report that is displayed. There are two columns in the output that are not in the report. Additionally, there are two columns in the output that are duplicates to two other columns. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there something i need to do to prevent the csv export from being promblematic? first screen shot is output headers, second is report headers.

Thanks for the help!

Hi Everyone,

Thank you in advance! I have build a report using SSRS on SQL 2005. I have a very strange issue with report, on below image the default value for District is "Select All" all other works fine with this selection no issue.



However if I select a single value from District such as "EE" the "Location" drop down value will become blank, in requirement the location should always select All. see below image for the issue

The query for District is 

SELECT     NULL AS Value, '<All Districts>' AS Label, '0.1' AS Sequence

UNION ALL

SELECT DISTINCT District_T AS Value, District_T AS Label, District_T AS Sequence

FROM         MSP_EpmTask_UserView

WHERE     (District_T IS NOT NULL)

ORDER BY Sequence

The query for Location is 

Select Distinct MSP_EpmTask_UserView.[Location] As Value, MSP_EpmTask_UserView.[Location] As Label, MSP_EpmTask_UserView.[Location] As Sequence

From MSP_EpmTask_UserView

Where MSP_EpmTask_UserView.[District_T] In (@ParmDistrict) and  MSP_EpmTask_UserView.[Location]  is not null

Order By Sequence

Oracle Data Source Fails

$

I have a Windows Server 2008/SQL 2008R2 server that has both the 32 bit and 64 bit Oracle 11g client installed.  Also we have TNS_ADMIN environment variable that points to a corporate location for all Oracle connections.  The problem I am having is I am trying to create a data source in Reporting Services that I cannot get a successful testing of the connection.  The error it keeps returning is "ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified".  I have validated I can connect using SQL*PLUS and I also could successfully test an ODBC connection to this Oracle SID, I just cannot get it working in SSRS. 

Any idea what the issue may be?

Also, as a side note, we have a different Oracle connection in the same server that has a report on top of it that runs successfully althought that data source also fails the "Test Connection", which is very bizarre to me

Aging report 30 days apart

I need an aging report that looks like this in REPORT BUILDER (not excel, like the example). The out of the box aging reports do not serve our purposes. 

The formulas in excel to create this are as follows...

How do I write these formulas in report builder? I know that I need to pull by Fields! rather than by cells (i.e. C2) but it doesn't seem to be working for me. Below is what my report looks like. I am using the ReceivablesTransactions table in Report Builder 2.0. 

I just need to know how to translate my excel formulas into SQL formulas. Any help is appreciated.

Report Subscription to an Netapp CIFS share fails

$
0
0

We have a Netapp 2240 and use it for our corporate shares. We are attempting to write to this using a SSRS Windows File Share report subscription.

When we use the IP of the device, the report is written to the CIFS share without issue. When we use the DNS A record or CNAME we get the following error -> Failure Writing File: \\SERVER\SHARE\FOLDER\FILE_NAME. The network path was not found.

If we use a Native windows share we do not see this behaviour, the file writes to the share without issue.

Has anyone seen this and can you explain it or provide a better solution than hard coding the IP address in the share path?

Thanks,

Shawn

Percent Column Error

$

Hello,

  I'm brand new to the world of Reporting Services and am putting together my first report based on AX2009 data.  My company sells carpet, and this report lists the top patterns sold (ie. I have a Row Group called "NAME" that has a group expression to group on [NAME] and then a Sort by [Sum(LINEAMOUNT)] ordered Z to A by $).  I can also explode each individual pattern to show which customers are buying it (ie. "SALESNAME" also ordered Z to A by $).  This works flawlessly. 

The problem lies with the "%TOTAL" column.  I want to calculate each pattern as a percentage of the total.  Here, I'm trying to use the following expression:

=FormatPercent(SUM(Fields!LINEAMOUNT.Value))/sum(SUM(Fields!LINEAMOUNT.Value),"NAME"),2 

Unfortunately, it's throwing me this error:

"The Value expression for the textrun 'Textbox3.Paragraphs[0].TextRuns[0]' contains an error: [BC30205] End of statement expected".

Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks!

two conditions on report visibility grouping

$
0
0

Hi All,

Quick question.  I have two conditions on the report grouping visibility.  The first condition is to hide only rows that only have NOTHING on a particular field, the second is based on a parameter which has two values (Yes and No).  Yes to hide the grouping all together and No to show the grouping.

The first condition always applies and as such will never show rows that have NOTHING.  I'm not sure if I can have both conditions on the visibility tab.  Below is an idea of what I'm trying to do.  

=IIF(Parameters!Action.Value= "Yes" ,True,False) and IIF(ISNOTHING(Fields!action.Value), True, False)

Does anyone know of a way to leverage both arguments?

Thanks
