I am trying to pull the Top 5 largest values from the Principal.  I need to do it for each year that is displaying.  Some may have up to 20 or 30 years.   I have tried the filter in the Groups, but this doesn't seem to work.  I need all the top 5 for 2019 , top 5 for 2020 etc.

Thank you.

Hello, 

Due to the nature of my grouping and using a CSV as oneof my datasource I have needed to use custom code to sum values. 

My custom code is a nested dictionary that stores the totals of various groups. 

The issue I'm having now is that whenever I re-run the report the dictionary is not reset to it's initial state, so it will continue to sum values. So if you run the same report with same values twice it will return the values * 2. 

Is there anyway to run a function so that whenever the view report button is pressed a function will run? 

I pushed a update to my staging server that updated our report viewer control from a dinasour version to the latest version.

The reports all show up fine but when clicking on print or export the user gets a error such as the one shown below -

Access Denied
You don't have permission to access "http://website.com/staging/Reserved.ReportViewerWebControl.axd?" on this server.

Reference #18.d6430d6.1563384398.98984d

______________

A hack I did that makes it work - A changed URL that gives the error -

https://mywebsite/staging/oldsite/Reserved.ReportViewerWebControl.axd?ReportSession=4pkobe55ntryhl45db1u1q45&Culture=1033&CultureOverrides=True&UICulture=1033&UICultureOverrides=True&ReportStack=1&ControlID=2c6c83b9ac5543fdb1b0211a26f9d5f5&RSProxy=http%3a%2f%2f123.456.789%2freportserver&OpType=Export&FileName=Readiness&ContentDisposition=OnlyHtmlInline&Format=PDF

Take note of the RSProxy=http%3a%2f%2f123.456.789%2freportserver line. If I remove that line from the URL it works without issue. Obviously its not a acceptable solution to tell my users that they have to remove a line from a URL to get something to work. Is there a way to remove this proxy parameter from the print/export option so it works as intended?


Some additional information:

My website is served through HTTPS only. The report server is served off HTTP.
The print/export function works when I run it on my personal development site. Both sites hit the same webserver.
We use IIS8.

I tried looking at the configuration of the report server and my IIS but I can't find anything that would lead to this issue. Any ideas?

Hi All,

I created a report in SSRS with subtotals by categories. 

Basically each user sells 2 categories of goods.

On the report, we have the subtotals per category and a grand total.

I am trying to copy the subtotal per category in a separate textbox on the same report so the users does not have to scroll all the way down to see his subtotal. 

I am trying to use the expression but I am not getting anywhere. 

Have any of you ever done that?

Let me know if you have any questions

I added a parent group to my table. Those parent groups mostly contain only one details row. I want to sort by a detail field, but not withing the groups, rather sorting the groups using the one (or highest) value it has in the given detail field. I can do this using 'interactive sorting' in the properties of a textBox, but how would I do it using a parameter?

Thanks

Need to build a report for a sql statement that returns several different results.  I know this is a problem for ssrs, so I want to spit up the procedure into multple procedures, one per dataset to be used by the report.  The problem is that several template tables are used that more than one result depends on.

So if there say, 4 procedures used by this report, can one include the statements that handle the temp table creation, and then the last in the chain call the "cleanup" of any temp tables being used ?

eg.

IF OBJECT_ID('tempdb..#Results')ISNOTNULLDROPTABLE#Results

The problem is that you dont know in which order the datasets get populated.

Good day!

I have this problem, I have set up a Report Server, everything is fine when I use it locally, but when I try to access it in another computer, it's always "Page can't be displayed" here's the things that I have done:

• pinging the server from the client, all clear
• opening the port for report server, clear
• added the Report Server URL in the trusted sites
• configure the .config file of report server in different authentication

but to no avail, still all other computer with in the local network can't access the report server.

PS. I am using SSRS 2014

Hello, 

I'd like to be able to return a specific subset of values from a multi-value parameter. 

Currently I have SQL which makes use of LIKE to group together certain customers who share a certain prefix, this is only done for this customer as whilst each part is needed to look at accounts when analysing this data we need to see them all together. 

So my SQL will turn ABC1, ABC2,ABC3 into ABC-ALL. 

Now within SSRS I can get this to show correctly, but when I drill down into a detail report for the customer ABC-ALL I need to be able to get all the values ABC1,ABC2,ABC3 back. Now these values are stored within a multi-value parameter named Customer, but this also contains all of the other customer values. 

Is there a way to do something like: 

IIF(Fields!CustomerAccountNumber.Value = 'ABC-ALL', 
Return Like 'ABC' FROM Parameters!Customer.Value, 'THEN Should only return values with ABC prefix
Fields!CustomerAccountNumber) 'Should return single value handled by SSRS grouping

I was just wondering if anyone knew what type a Multi-Value parameter is within SSRS. So by this I mean when you Right Click a parameter and have "Allow Multiple Values" what does that return?

A list, an array, an arrayList?

I'm having some trouble using one of these values within a custom code function and just want to make sure I'm passing it as the correct type. 

Hi,

I am looking at designing a Mobile report and integrating it into a customer facing website that is written ASP.NET MVC.  The customer logs in with an email address that is stored in a SQL database and associated with 1 or more Customer ID's via a Parent Child Relationship.  The data source for the report pulls from a reporting database that contains all of our customer data so I only need to load the dashboard data for the specific customer logging in.  Is this possible to do and lock down the dashboard so the customer cannot change and view others customer data?

Thanks

Hi

No matter what I enter, I cannot get a connection to the database.

In Visul Studio I created a small project called 'Tutorial' which contains a single Microsoft RDL report.
I created a datasource and a dataset and can preview my report in Visual Studio 2017.
I deployed all three to the ReportServer [running on the same machine] and can see the three directories - Datasets, Data Sources and Tutorial.
I set up my 'Current Report Server Database' in the Report Server Configuration Manager and selected 'Windows Credentials' for my authentication type with a username of LAPTOP-########\MyAccountName and my laptop password.
I did the same for the 'Current repprt Server Database Credential'.
My 'Data Source Properties' credentials is also 'Use Windows Authentication'.

In 'SQL Server Reporting Services' I select 'Using the following credentials' and enter the same login credentials I did in the Report Server Configuration Manager.

I click 'Test connection' and get ...

Couldn't connect - The report server couldn't connect to the data source using the information you entered. Make sure you've entered the connection string and any credentials correctly.

My connection string in 'SQL Server Reporting Services' is:
Data Source=(localdb)\MSSQLLocalDB;Initial Catalog=AdventureWorks2016;Connect Timeout=30;Encrypt=False;TrustServerCertificate=False;ApplicationIntent=ReadWrite;MultiSubnetFailover=False

If anyone has any suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Team,

Have created a ssrs windows file share subscription and am getting bellow error message

Thanks Bala Narasimha

Hi All,

I am not sure is this proper forum to ask. I have multiples solutions for SSRS reports in Visual Studio 2016/17. I am required to modify formatting values (font size and txt color) for all the reports in all the solutions with same value to make it standard. Is there any way I can achieve this in one go (or with least amount of effort  rather than opening each report and modify one by one.)

Thanks

SQL Server 2016:

When clicking on the print button in the report, we get a pop-up with the text: We'll create a printer-friendly PDF version of your report:

We would like to skip this pop-up and, when clicking on the print button, go diretly to the print-window with the printers we can choose.

Does anyone have a tip on how to set this up?

Hello,

i develop a WinForms application that shall use SSRS for reporting. The reports will be created on the client. Installing software components like ReportViewer.msi would trigger a complicated procedure in my customer's IT department. So I would like to avoid that. Is there a way to use SSRS in a WinForms application without having to install ReportViewer.msi?

Hello,

Report consists of 1 table. Structured this way

Outlined red headers set to 'KeepWithGroup'=After and 'RepeatOnNewPage'=True.

When report runs, all report pages have the red outlined headers present except sometimesthey are missing on last page. Trying to figure out why, I determined, that it depends on one of the report fields in  Group1. This field have nvarchar(MAX) size in SQL Server and could be a very big block of text. 

The report will show red outlined headers on last page when text in this field trimmed to 238 characters.When longer than 238 characters - headers disappear from last page only. 

This is very strange and makes report incomplete. I tried many ways to resolve this and could not. 

Can someone please help to resolve this?

Must be an easy fix.  I am having problems with the render portion.  Am I calling the wrong type?

We have been using SSRS 2016 email sending for a long time with no issues.  I just received a notice from Microsoft that the email is being sent using TLS 1.0 and must be changed to TLS 1.2 before September 30th or we will no longer be able to send via our Office 365 account.  I have searched for answers on how to force TLS 1.2 using SSRS email sending and have found nothing.

Has anyone had to deal with this?  If so, any thoughts on how to fix it?

Thanks.
