My Data-Driven Subscriptions(DDS) Don't Want To Work Although I Can View My Reports
Nov 28, 2006
Hi
I have been asked to move our entire system over from SQL2000 to SQL2005, i eventually got our database and Cubes over to 2005 and converted all my reports to 2005 and deployed them successfully on RS2005
All the subscriptions have been made and they seem to work when i click to view them. Although when i create a DDS for all my reports to run then they fail. Now i've got over 5000 reports to build and i'm definately not going to create each report manually. My SQL Reports huild successfully, it just seems to be the MDX Reports with a problem, i;ve checked my stored procs and they seem fine, i've even seen the [Clients].&[All.Clients] difference from SQL2005 ---->&<------ that is not in SQL2000.
If someone has, or has had the same problem before would you please help me. Any advice or suggestions would be more than welcome.
I am using Reporting Services 2005 locally for testing purposes and also on a production server. Locally, I can create data-driven subscriptions, but not on the server. The only difference I can think of between my local test environment and the production server is the versions of SQL server database. Locally, I am using SQL server 2005 but on the server I am using SQL server 2000 (but with Reporting Services 2005). Can the version difference be the reason for not being able to use data-driven subscriptions?
Note: I have followed various guidelines and walkthroughs that describe how a data-driven subscription is created, i.e. stored credentials on the report server and such should not be the problem.
Operating systems: locally; Windows XP. Server; Windows Server 2003.
i built my report with BIDS, configured my datasource and report. then i deployed it. on http://localhost/reports, I to go to the Report, but under "subscriptions", I don't see the "create data driven subscriptions" button.
however, under properties/datasources of my report, I clearly configured the "Credentials stored securely in the report server"-setting.
I have followed the steps multiple times but when I go to add the Data-Driven Subscription, the option is disabled. The report's datasource is setup to use stored credentials and the server Mail is setup. Is there another prerequisite that I'm missing?
I have problem with using a data-driven subscription on a report with subreports. It works fine when I remove the subreport and generates error even when I add a subreport which only consists of one textbox.
I just was curious to know if using data-driven subscription on a report with subreports is supposed to work?
I have created data-driven subscriptions on top of the existing reports on my development server. I have same reports on QA's report server but without the DD subscriptions. Is there an easy way to migrate data-driven subscriptions to QA report server or the only way to do is create each subscription manually?
We have a rather large query that takes time to run between each data-driven instance. Is there a way to only send out the first email after the last subscription has finished processing? Any advanced input on data-driven subscriptions .
We use the Windows-logon to authenticate en identify the user. With this logon we check within most of our reports what a user is allowed to see.
Depending his level or geographical location he is allowed to run reports on one to all sites. He can selects the sites from a Multiple Select box. This works fine.
Now, we want to use data-driven subscriptions, I understand why we can't use this parameter, but how do you people deal with this kind of configurations.
I would prefer not to 'double' the reports in a normal and a subsciption version .....
I am trying to find a reference for a client that lists the fields available to be substituted into a data driven subscription from the query, along with the expected data types.  For example, the field on whether or not to include a link to the report seems to be expecting a bit data type.I have searched and can't seem to find anything.  I guess I could walk through the interface and try different data types, but if  a list exists, that would be better.Â
Does anybody have experience with e-mail distribution using Data Driven Subscriptions? I want to build the following:
I have a table with names and e-mail addresses of people in my data warehouse. This table changes over time, more people will be added and data (for example e-mail addresses) can change. I made 1 report that I want to mail to all the people in the table. This report contains 1 parameter; the e-mail address of a person. So basically it€™s quite simple: I want to e-mail all the people in the table a personalized (by the parameter) report each month.
Can anybody tell me how I can achieve this with SSRS 2005(SSEE)? I know how to make a data driven subscription but how can I make one pending on the data in a table?
Any help would be appreciated. I will write a blog about this when I've done it so your input will not get lost.
I am looking for a good tutorial on how to set up Data Driven subscriptions through the SharePoint 2012 version of SSRS. I am needing to set up a Data Driven subscription that uses one report, but sends out the specific portion of the report to the appropriate recipients. I have used the information located at URL.... but it doesn't seem to provide all the steps needed to schedule the reports needed. It focuses around setting up the reports to go to shared folder locations. I need something around setting it up to go to email recipients.Â
I've got an SSRS report that is set up using a data-driven subscription to supply input parameters to the stored procedure that is called to generate the report results.
I was wondering if there is any way to specify the execution processing method (running the reports in parallel or serially). The subscription that we have set up appears to be running all of the reports in parallel which is causing massive load on our servers.
I have researched this question and so far have found very different opinions as to how or if it is possible.I have created 2 Data-driven subscriptions in SSRS. 1 for our sales persons and another for our managers reports. For the salespersons report, the solution works brilliantly as expected and I can appreciated the increased simplicitly for having 1 subscription to drive reports to a sales staff of over 100 folks.One the other hand, I can't seem to grasp the significance of this type of solution for the Sales managers when they have multiple salespersons that report to them.
Apparently, SSRS 2008 has provided no practical solution for this scenario that would be easily implemented in a Data driven subscription.Since I can't find a way to pass in muliple integer values that represent each of the salesreps for a single manager, I am stuck with potentially sending multiple reports for each of the Sales Reps residing under a single manager. Not very elegant or useful as I'd hoped for using Data driven subscriptions. I have even changed the parameter datatype to string and used something like:
paramSalesPeople = substring((SELECT ( ', ' + CAST(territoryid AS VARCHAR(2000))) FROM Reports..SalesForce t2 WHERE t1.SalesManagerID = t2.SalesManagerID ORDER BY SalesManagerID FOR XML PATH( '' )), 3, 1000 )
To create a comma-delimited list of values for the parameters in effort of generating 1 (ONE) record per Manager. But the Data Driven Subscription fails miserably.So the question, Is it or is it not possible to have multiple values passed as a single parameter to a data driven subscription to consolidate the number of required reports into one. If not, it would seem that it should be possible since it can be done from the reports parameters drop-down menu.I have read someones recommendation to script the multi-valued parameter which seems to defeat the intent of the term "Data Driven' Subscription if I have to hard-code this logic into a script.
I am running the following ENTERPRISE version of SQL Server, I am admin on the box and do not have the New data-driven Subscription showing up on the Subscription tab.
Does anyone have any ideas why?

I have a single data driven subscription that is a batch of 250 subscriptions running on SQL Server 2008 R2. All the parameter values for the report are sourced from a database table. During the execution of the data driven subscription 5 of those subscriptions failed due to timeout error.
Final Status as shown on Subscription screen "Done: 250 processed of 250 total; 5 errors."
The SSRS log file has the subscription GUID which is a single record in the reporting server database tables. How can i identify the individual failed subscriptions? Is there an easy way or a work around that i should implement to identify the failed subscriptions?
Is it possible to have a data-driven subscription over a report containing sub-reports? I have been trying but without sucess...
I was unable to create the data-driven over the report... only over a linked report to that same report, but even that way when i execute the subscription i get error...
If i create a the data-driven subs to every single sub-report it works fine! So why can't i create the data-driven over the report with those sub-reports? What can be causing the problem?
I'm using data-driven subscription to deliver reports to users via email.
However every few days or so, some of the reports will fail to get delivered to some of the subscribers. The rpts and subscribers affected are usually not the same.
The log showed the below messages....would really appreciate if anybody can shed light on this! TIA!

I'm trying to create a report that will be data-driven and produce multiple reports based on a parameter. For example, 5 reports go out today based on invoice numbers from yesterday. Each invoice can have multiple trasnsaction lines and each line contains the invoice number. What I have so far is only taking the first invoice number (let's say it has 10 transactions) and sending me the same report 10 times and stopping.
I get nothing for the remaining 4 invoices/reports. Here is what I have. To me this should enter the distinct invoice no's from yesterday into #temp, while a invoice no exiists begin query with one invoice selected from #temp then delete that invoice no and select another one and repeat till no more invoice no's. But it's only going through the one invoice no.
select distinct InvoiceNo into #temp from table where Invoicedate between getdate()-1 and getdate() declare @InvoiceNo VARCHAR(25)
We have 7 SSRS reports subscription which execute every night at various time intervals.
Some times, due to database unavailability subscriptions can not access the source database, so these subscriptions continuously try to connect the database. (Even after setting connection time out.)
When the database is up again, all these subscriptions create bottleneck for the database and the whole system crashes.
So we want to stop subscriptions after some time interval (lets say 2 hours after it starts),
After that time interval what ever may be the status of the subscription (processing, done or fail) it should stop.
Please let me know the solution, Thanks in advance.
Under My Subscriptions I have a report that runs daily. This report allows me to select certain items from a dropdown in parameter fields or select all. Some days the report fails and I get the follow error: The subscription contains parameter values that are not valid. When I click Edit to review, the parameter field is blank and my selections have been unselected. This report has several parameter fields but only only one or two of the parameter fields are blank, the others are ok.
We use timed subscriptions to do almost all of our reporting. Reports are delivered (primarily via e-mail and printer) once they are completed and users don't have to "watch the pot boil" so to speak.
Apparently SSRS has some load balancing capability whereby it lets only a limited number of threads/reports run concurrently. We often reach this max and lock ourselves up on some very long-running reports, causing other important reports to wait a long time.
We've added some operational reports (ie. document prints) to the mix. These reports run off of OLTP data. They are very fast and very high priority. Waiting on them is not an option. Is there some way we can get SSRS to work on these operational reports in preference to other types of reports (eg. "just for kicks" reports)? I think we'd almost like to add another SSRS server and dedicate it to the operational reports. Ideally the new SSRS server would use the same Report Server database but would only work on subscriptions for certain documents.
Has anybody else tried to solve this problem? This MS document does really address subscriptions or load balancing by report: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sql/2005/pspsqlrs.mspx
I have a Daily Invoice Report that has subscriptions for all customers and is run every night. Â The report has parameters of @date & @Customer. Â We had issues with invoices not being sent due to the Owner on the reports was disabled in Active Directory. Â We do not know how many reports did not get sent out so I am tasked with creating a script to rerun the reports for each day in August. Â I have queried the subscriptions, but need to figure out how to rerun the reports using the existing parameters set in the subscription, increment the report parameter date, and execute the emailing of the report.
Here is my query that gives me all the subscription information, but how do I rerun the job for all subscriptions for each date in August?
