How to pass parameters to a web application from SSRS

$
0
0

I need to be able to pass a field value from an SSRS report text box to a web application. After setting the field value I want in the text box, then going to Text Box Properties-->Action I entered the following URL:

http://tcgweb01a/Clinical/HolterLog/HolterLogUpdate.aspx?parm1=Parameters!SeqNo.Value

It loads the web app just fine, but it is not passing the parm1 value (I also tried Field!SeqNo.Value) so it loads a blank form.  After the app loads I look at the URL and the value for parm1 is exactly as you see above instead of the sequence value I want, i.e. "?parm1=1234".

I have looked and looked and looked for an answer for this but all I find is how to pass values from a web app to an SSRS report.  I'm going in the opposite direction.  Any help would be MUCH appreciated.

Thanks,

Dave



Find the start of the financial year

$

Hi, I am using Report Builder 3.0 and I am fairly new to this so please bear with me.

I have created a report with two parameters, one for end date and one for start date, the end date is a set of predefined dates to select from, and the start date is a hidden parameter that calculates the first day of the week based on the end date selected.

Our financial year runs from 01 Oct to 30 Sept, so today being 01/05/13 would be fiscal year of FY13.  I have several tables in my report and I would like to filter the data based on the fiscal year.  I somehow need to work out which fiscal year the date the user has selected is in and then filter my data accordingly.  My data has a column called fiscal year in it and it already populated with FY13, FY12 etc.  How can I work out if the date the user is selecting is in FY12 etc and filter accordingly?  This is really baffling me because effectively I need to say:  If Date selected by user is greater than Sept 2013 but less than Oct 2014 the fiscal year is 2014.  Ha, I've confused myself just writing this question lol, my head hurts.

Is there a way to set up a subscription that both puts a copy of the output on a share drive and also sends an email saying that the report has run?  It seems to be one way or the other, and I don't want to run the report twice.

SQL Reporting Services Missing roles in security section

When i navigate to home>Site settings>Security The roles like browser/content manager/report builder as missing. SO 

I installed SQL server Reporting services 2008 r2 I originally set it up as a local service. Later after wanting to set permissions properly I changed it to Network Service thinking it would add the roles at that time. Below is a picture of the security section. Am i doing something wrong?

I have a sharepoint list with the following fields:

Month       Year     Hours     Name

january      2013     2           Tom

january      2013     5           Tom

january      2013     1           Tom

january      2013     3         Peter

I have a page where I need to display the person with the most hours for a particular month.

In this case it would be Tom with 8 hours.

Is there a way to group it by month and get the person with the maximum hours through jquery?

Subscription Output XML to local folder.

$

I have a report I run to keep the SSRS service "alive".  I can configure the XML output to a UNC path to a share on my local server (hard coded), but I want to create with generic UNC path (like\\.\share\) or variable laced UNC path (like \\%computername%\%TEMP%).  I want to use something generic is PATH, so I can script and apply report and subscription to my many SSRS servers without having to modify each individually for the path. 

If I use the  \\.\share\ path, I get error "FileStream will not open Win32 devices such as disk partitions and tape drives. Avoid use of "\\.\" in the path."

Any ideas on using generic UNC path?

Modify tooltip shown when hovering over report title

$

I'm using SSRS 2008R2. I'm trying to modify the text in the tooltip that is displayed when I hover over the report title. Right now, all of the report tooltips display "Item inFolder", where Folder is the name of the folder that the report resides in.

The only post I can see regarding this topic is http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sqlreportingservices/thread/4976c2a8-b5f8-4853-8876-b507d1ea31e5. If I'm reading the post correctly, it says I should be able to set the description of the report and that description should appear when I hover over the tooltip.

I've tried that, and am not seeing the description in the tooltip. The only thing I'm seeing is the default "Item inFolder".

Is there anything else that I need to do in order set the value displayed in the tooltip when a user hovers over the report name?

Thanks in advance.

disable non-SSL access to SQL Server Report Service

I have a reporting server 2012 installed. I can access both report service and report manager through HTTP. Then I added HTTPS access and I can access both report service and report manager through HTTP and/or HTTPS.

I want to disable the HTTP access to report service and report manager. From configuration manager in Web Service URL and Report Manager URL, I deleted both HTTP settings from Advanced panel, only left the HTTPS settings. Then I can only access report service through HTTPS. When I tried to access report manager through HTTPS, I got the following error:

The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish trust relationship for
the SSL/TLS secure channel. 

Any idea what I did wrong? Thanks.

I am building a SSRS report, using report builder, and using an expression to  pull the last date in a group, and create number of days between it and today. 

This is the expression: =DATEDIFF(Day,Max(Fields!elig_eff_dt.Value),Today())

that returns this error:

The Value expression for the textrun ‘Textbox1.Paragraphs[0].TextRuns[0]’ contains an error: [BC30455] Argument not specified for parameter 'DateValue' of 'Public Function Day(DateValue As Date) As Integer'.

Any idea what my problem is?

Thanks

Is there any way to send multiple versions of one report to individual users all at once?

$
0
0

I'm wondering if there it's possible to automate a process where one report is send to a number of individual users at once?  To better explain what I'm trying to do, here is an example.

I have one report that lists out a number of tasks and is parameterized by an entered username (the assignee). Instead of sending out one bulk email to all individuals that have open items (and listing out all of the items), I would like create a subscription that sends out individual versions of this report and sends the report email to the user listing out tasks assigned to them only.

The list of users would fluctuate so I'd rather avoid creating individual subscriptions for every possible user, and was hoping there was a way to automate this.

Thanks in advance.

I have configured SSRS in SharePoint Integrated Mode.  I am using SQL 2012 Enterprise Edition (11.0.3000.0).  The issue I am having is the Add Data-Driven Subscription option is missing under Manage Subscriptions.  I see Add Subscription and Delete but no Add Data-Driven Subscription.

I have searched and the only thing I can find is that you have to use SQL Enterprise Edition, which I am using.

Thanks

I am trying to click on a link to specify a particular type of parameter.  For instance I am trying to get particular type of product's sales without clicking a particular parameter and then clicking the view report tab.  instead I would like to just click the link and view the same report in another window that already has the parameter selected and the report generated.  My problem is that when I click on the link I get the same report without being filtered by product like I want.  What am I missing?

Custom email including URL of report request

$

0

I'm using SSRS 2008

I'm trying to figure out how to build a report RDL that allows the user to easily send via email the URL of the report execution so that the person receiving the email can easily view the report, without having to re-enter the report parameter criteria. I can link to other reports and send the parameter selections, which then load up the sub-report, but I can't figure out how to do something similar into an email (Outlook).

There's an option in Internet Explorer under the File > Send > Link by Email, but this only create a URL to the report request prior to any parameter selections.  I need to include those selections.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

VS2012 SSDT Report Unable to Add Shared Dataset

$

So I installed the SSDT package released in March 2013 to allow creating Reports.
I've connected to both my Report server and have a shared Datasource and created a number of Shared Datasets.  I then created a Report, added the shared DataSource and unable to add any of the shared Datasets that should be available.  I am able to deploy to my dev Reporting Server.

In the Report designer under the 'Report Data' window, I right click 'Datasets', select 'Add Dataset', dialog box pops up, enter a unique name and it displays all the shared datasets.  However, clicking on any one that I want to select results in the dialog box closing and no dataset entered.  No error, no message, no indication of anything wrong other than not adding the dataset.

Anyone seen this or know what could be wrong?

Thanks
Mark
