Not Calculating The Correct Number Of Pages In Report
Mar 5, 2008
When viewing a report our users see that it is x number of pages, however when they print the report is actually y number of pages. For example once a report is ran, it says that it is 43 pages, however in actuality it is 62 pages. If they only want to print the last page, they choose to print 43 from the print dialog box, but that gives them a page in the middle of the report not the last page. Is there a way to remedy this?
I have a report that is created that is typically 2-3 pages long. I've tried the "ExecutionInfo.NumPages" but it always results in "1" as the answer. Code is something like this:
============
...
Dim reportHistoryParameters As sqlprod1_res.ParameterValue() = Nothing
Dim SessionId As String Dim execInfo As New ExecutionInfo
Dim execHeader As New ExecutionHeader()
Dim result As Byte() = Nothing
Dim format As String = "PDF"
Dim devInfo As String = "<DeviceInfo><Toolbar>False</Toolbar></DeviceInfo>" Dim extension As String = "" Dim encoding As String = "" Dim mimeType As String = "" Dim warnings As sqlprod1_res.Warning() = Nothing
Dim streamIDs As String() = Nothing
result = rs.Render(format, devInfo, extension, encoding, mimeType, warnings, streamIDs)
execInfo = rs.GetExecutionInfo()
Dim Pages As Integer = execInfo.NumPages ============
I'm having a very frustrating problem that no amount of formatting via properties and/or expression seems to be clearing up.
I have a column in the dataset that is data typed decimal (6,4) (from the SQL query). The numeric value is, for example, being returned to the data set as 0.6500.
The problem is the report wants to just show zero. Formatting efforts to date have only yielded, '0', '0.00', & '0.0000'.
I am staring to lose my mind on all this "work-around" BS in trying to create a dynamic header.
I have a report with contains a table, whose first two lines are a header line in which I want to repeat on each page. Then I have about 20 detail rows of information related to the header. The 21st detail row is a merged cell that contains a subreport relating to the header item.
When printing to PDF, the detail rows consume about half the page and the subreport is anywere from half a page to several pages long. When the subreport is more than half a page, it skips the end of the first page and starts on the top of the next page, leaving the bottom half of the first page blank. No matter what I set the page breaking to, it continues this behavior. In addition, when the subreport data spans more than one page, my parent table's header row will not print to the next page even it the RepeatOnNewPage is set to true.
I am coding this way because I have found no good way of creating a dynamic header that will correctly and consistantly display data that has detail that spans more than one page.
I've built a few reports using Reporting Services. The number of pages in my reports isdifferent in the on-screen rendered report from the printed version. My report properties are set to an A4 page (210 x 297) and also Globals.Page give me a different result. (on the screen I see 2 pages and I print 6 pages).
Like many others, I have a large report that groups on invoices, and does a page break between each invoice. From reading other posts in this forum, I was able to reset the page number on the grouping, however, there are some things that I need to display only on the last page of each invoice, but I don't see how I will be able to determine when I'm on the last page for a particular invoice. Can I somehow determine up front the number of pages for a group so I know when I'm at the last page?
I have reports that when rendered in html have a different number of pages than when exported to pdf. I have noticed that none of the formats have the same number of pages. I have InteractiveSize and PageSize set exactly the same. Is there any way to get these to agree?Thanks, Brian
I have a ssrs report having 2 tables in with 4 columns in each. When I go to export option in preview I can see all data coming in one excel sheet, But I am trying to get 2 tables in 2 different pages in Excel when I export.First page of excel comes with first table data with 4 columns and second page of excel comes with second table data with 4 columns .
We are trying to get a rough estimate of the size of the warehouse in terms of number of bytes. Now I understand that when I say char(2) datatype requires 2 bytes of memory. If this is correct then how many bytes does the following data type need -
I want to make the ReportServer and Reports pages secured i.e not allow anyone to access these pages via browser.
I login to a machine as user ABC. This user does not have permission on reports. if this user accesses ReportServer or Reports, expected is that access should be denied unless I enter an account that has been given permissions. for e.x. following pages should be secured. http://<reportserver>/Reports http://<reportserver>/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2f<Report_Project>%2f<Report_Name> http://<reportserver>/ReportServer http://<reportserver>/ReportServer?%2f<Report_Project>&rs:Command=ListChildren
Actual result is that I am able to access these pages. When I click on the report I get the error (this is expected) but then user ABC should be shown error on first page itself.
In short, for all the accounts that do not already have permissions on reports, the server should challenge me to enter an account and password. Is there some setting in the configuration file? Any help would be appreciated Thanks in advance!
We have 2 users accessing exactly the same reports/data but who are getting different numbers of pages printed.
The report viewer displays 12 pages of data; when one user selects Print preview they get 12 pages displayed and 12 pages print. When the other user displays exactly the same 12 pages of report data and preview it, they get 24 pages, with the last column apparently spilling on to a second page. I realise that physical pagination is controlled by the print control and is unrelated to the HTML rendering, but the users have the same printer selected and the print-preview shows the margins set to the same size. What else can be causing the difference?
We are using RS 2000, SP2. TIA for any assistance with this.
It's no secret that the number of pages in a rendered report varies depending on the format. I have no problem getting the total number of pages for reports rendered in image formats from the web service, but I can't figure out how to get the number of pages for reports rendered in HTML.
I've always been under the impression that the Report Manager that ships with SSRS uses the same web service (reportservice.asmx) and IT can get the number of HTML pages, so it has to be possible.
I am trying to calculate the number of hours a device has been used and I cant find how. I need a query that calculated and does an average of the number of hrs used in a week.
I have sql code that returns the correct number of record when run without an aggregate function like count(myfield) and group by myfield. It always returns 86 row which is correct when Select DISTINCT is used. As, expected when DISTINCT is not used I get double the number if rows or 172. But when I count(myfield) and group by myfield the count is 172 and not 86. The strangest thing about this is that when I am grouping a set of items
Group 1
Group 2
Group 3
The other group sum up correctly while others don't. What can explain this? Here is the code.
Select DISTINCT ws.p4Districtnumber, ws.cycle, ws.worksetid, count(msi.MeterSessionInputKey) as ASND from fcs.dbo.WorkSet as ws left outer join fcs.dbo.WorkAssignment as wa on ws.WorkSetID = wa.WorkSetID left outer join fcs.dbo.MeterSessionInput as msi on wa.worksetkey = msi.worksetkey
I have two separate reports, and they work fine. But I noticed that in one report, regardless of length, it will show up in the Report Manager as one page that you just scroll down through. The second report always shows up as more than one page, and you have to click through the pages to see everything. Is this some setting that I am unaware of? I have tried finding a difference between the two reports, but can't see why one would show up as a long continuous report and the other is divided into pages. Any ideas?
I've created a simple .rdl report and seems to show the preview under my visual studio. But, when I add the .rdl file into the server and export them to be a .PDF, The pdf is created with two blank pages for every single page with data. Please comment me to fix this.
I created a report with multiy pages and in between every page of data is a blank page. If the Report is Sixteen pages long i get eight blank pages. The Body size of the report is 8.5in, 25.475in. The Report porperities or 8.5 x 11in. Each page has a table with a page break at start set to true. But I still get blank pages in between the report.
I have a report that pulls a customer balance. In crystal there was a way to have the page not show up if it met a certain criteria(say if the balance was 0 or negative).
I'd rather not filter them in SQL because it takes a few calculations to figure out what their balance is, and I already have SRS doing that calculation. So is there a way to have a report page not print based on a certain criteria?
I have a report that only has one page when previewed but when it's printed there are two pages. This is a problem because I get two printed pages to my report with "1 of 2 pages" on the first page and "2 of 2 pages" on the second but there is only data on the first page and the second has header and footer but no data.
Is there a way to force the report to fit everything on one page? Or some other setting I am missing?
I have developed an reporting solution for a customer with reporting services and using report builder. When he connect to http://localhost/reports , he see the page like
I working on an Invoice report on the last page of each invoice, there is section the client cut off
that section has:
Company Logo
Company Address
Invoice number
INvoice date
Sub total
PSP tax
and Amount due
The Height of the page footer is 1.71823in
This is the work around that I did,
I added a page footer, put a rectangle in it, set the Visibility expression on =Globals.PageNumber < Globals.TotalPages, so it will only show on the last page.
My problem is, on each page I am getting the page footer space, the page footer does not
supress, it's just hidden and every page is having the page footer space in the buttom.
I also set the PrintOnLast page on the page Footer, but that did not work as well.
in print on other pages as well.
I also tried to fit that page footer in a very small Height, but that did not work too, the page footer does not auto grow and the info is getting cut.
Hello everyone, I'm trying to build a report that calculates a summary of all my applicants based on the center they're enrolled in.
I have built a table that displays all applicants and sorts them by the center and I can use the count function to get a count of ALL applicants for all centers, but not a count of each center in one report: example:
Applicant1 Field1 Field2 Field3 Center 1 Applicant2 Field1 Field2 Field3 Center 1 Applicant3 Field1 Field2 Field3 Center 1 Applicant4 Field1 Field2 Field3 Center 1 Applicant5 Field1 Field2 Field3 Center 2 Applicant6 Field1 Field2 Field3 Center 2 Applicant7 Field1 Field2 Field3 Center 2
I need the count of all applicants from center 1, center 2, etc.. In this example I need 4 for center 1, 3 for center 2 etc..
In one report I have 2 tables. Both tables are related to a different data set. Now I want to create a calculating between a field of the table 1 and a field of table 2.
I created a report that uses a parameter to return a record per page basically, but it doesn't return all records that match the parameter. Thoughts?
Specifically, I have a table that tracks various sites my engineers are responsible for; each have about twelve. The problem is that every time I select an engineer I only see six pages (records). When I select two or three, then I see 12 or 18 pages, but still just six records per engineer.
I have a master report that contains 4 sub reports. The first two subreports contains matrix controls that can (and will) spill over to a second page. With 5 columns of data the matrix subreports fit nicely onto one page, 6 or more columns and they will spill into a second page. The second two subreports will always fit onto one single page. All four subreports are inside a list control which will repeat for each structure. e.g. Each subreport will be rendered once per structure.
The master report renders perfectly (with no blank pages) whenever the two subreports with the matrix controls fit on one page each. However, whenever the matrix control subreports spill into a second page it causes the master report to insert a blank page after subreport 3 and 4, bare in mind subreport 3 and 4 both fit perfectly on a single page. I've check all margins and page widths etc.
The blank page problem only occurs whenever the matrix needs to span two pages.
Anybody encountered this problem or have any ideas how to fix it? I'm beginning to think it is a bug with reporting services.
I'm a new SQL Reporting user and could use some guidance.
Here is a simple explanation of my application: imagine a report which prints out a grade report for each of 10 students. Depending on how many notes a teacher makes on the student's individual grade report, each student's report might be 1 or 2 pages long.
To create this report I just used a List report item and laid out a typical grade report and filled in the appropriate fields (name, teacher, etc.) from my dataset query.
When I run the report, it is running great and the students and their grade reports all print out.
The problem I am running into is I want to make sure each student's name is on page 2 if the grade report for that student goes more than 1 page (so pages aren't separated from each other or mixed up). I tried using a Report Footer, but that just put the first student's name at the bottom of every page. I could put a textfield at the bottom the list control but that would just appear at whatever length page 2 ended up being (basically you could have a "footer" at mid-page if the whole list only took up 1.5 pages).
How can I create a footer for each set of pages? Basically this would be a "footer" to the list control itself.
RE: Quarterly report - calculating for each of the next four months?
As I play with joins and functions to help mold my data.. I'm thinking about options.
I have a status table with termination status entries that will dictate participation spans for members.. a member can have multiple stop and start status entries in that status table. I've built an sql function that given a member's ID and a month/year will return the number of days the member particpated in the month.
I need to produce an SSRS report that given a starting month/year will report days of activity for every member for the next four months.
So my report will look like this: memberid 2007/06 2007/07 2007/08 2007/09 001 10 0 20 5 002 0 2 55 1
Should I build a view that given the starting yearmonth returns month1 - 4's data in a row?
or is there a smarter design? Possibly a row for each month? or SSRS formulas? Maybe the formula is gonna be a performance killer.
