Parameter Fields Get Unselected On Reports Under My Subscriptions
Sep 11, 2007
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.
I am experiencing some issue with drill through report parameter not getting selected some times.I have two reports parent and child. Both reports have total ten parameters and all are cascading parameters with multiple selection. The report, when drill through to child, first eight parameters selected as it in the parent report.But the ninth parameter not get selected with the default value which from parent report and the parameter populated with values.
The first two parameter type is date time and rest of them are text and all text type parameters available and default values are populated by query (Data set) only.
Where in the backend database can I find who a subscription was sent to? I know in the report server database the subscripitons table has a description and last status field, but these fields are cutting names off when the list is large. Is there any other place where this information is stored?
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.
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 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 have a Daily Invoice Report that has subscriptions for all customers and is run every night. The report has parameters of @date & @Customer. We had issues with invoices not being sent due to the Owner on the reports was disabled in Active Directory. 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. 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?
SELECT USR.UserName AS SubscriptionOwner ,SUB.ModifiedDate ,SUB.[Description] ,SUB.EventType ,SUB.DeliveryExtension
I have just started using SQL Server reporting services and am stuck with creating subreports.
I have a added a sub report to the main report. When I right click on the sub report, go to properties -> Parameters, and click on the dropdown for Parameter Value, I see all Sum and Count fields but not the data fields.
For example, In the dropdownlist for the Parameter value, I see Sum(Fields!TASK_ID.Value, "AppTest"), Count(Fields!TASK_NAME.Value, "CammpTest") but not Fields!TASK_NAME.Value, Fields!TASK_ID.Value which are the fields retrieved from the dataset assigned to the subreport.
When I manually change the parameter value to Fields!TASK_ID.Value, and try to preview the report, I get Error: Subreport could not be shown. I have no idea what the underlying issue is but am guessing that it's because the field - Fields!TASK_ID.Value is not in the dropdown but am trying to link the main report and sub report with this field.
Am I missing something here? Any help is appreciated.
I doubt this is possible, but can someone think of a way to change the email address used for sending report subscriptions based on the report or subscription?
It's a need that I've heard from a number of different clients. Scenario: a company has one reporting services server with reports running from numerous departments. Report subscriptions are sent to internal and external email addresses and there's a business need to use different "from" addresses based on the report (or audience).
Note that the Store Number is selected, but the Store Region is not, it's just the result of cross-filtering. Regional Sales incorrectly matches National Sales. If I then select the Region, the measures work:
I'm actually using VBA to change the Store Number slicer, as the end users don't want to select the region, then scroll through a list of store numbers. They just want to enter a store number and hit enter. I've tried a few things in DAX and VBA, and failed.
Hi everyone, I am working with SSRS 2000, and I have 2 reports that are linked with a hyperlink. Well, one is the report with all the data (numbers, months, etc) and the second one is a Chart with all the information. Well, both have a parameter, that prompts the part #. I want to know, how can I get both reports to run with one parameter only. For example, the first report with the data, fill in the parameter (part#), and when click on the hyperlink to have the Chart (second report) automatically fill in the part # that was typed in the first report so it can display the information. I know excell does it, but how can I do this with SSRS?
I have one master report and 4 linked reports. I deployed a report and set defaults for BeginDate and EndDate as =Today(). I have 4 linked reports that I need to change the date parameters for each. For instance the first linked reports needs to be BeginDate =Today() and the EndDate as =Today()+30. So in my linked report, I tried to change the EndDate to =Today()+30 and an error, 'The value provided for the report parameter 'BeginDate' is not valid for its type.'
So I can't put =Today() or =Today()+30 in the parameters once I override the defaults. Can someone tell me what I'm missing here?
I have bunch of reports that take same set of parameters. I am trying parametrize the report type so that depending on the report type selected, body should display that report when user hits "View report" button. How can I do this? Pardon me if there is an obvious solution as I am pretty new to the joys of MS Reporting Services.
Is it possible to generate mulitple reports from parameter? what I want is for example: I have a report with a sales orders table, it has 2 input parameter fields; two dates to make up a date range. If the date range is between yesterday and today, I will get two reports (two reports with two different total page number); one is for yesterday and one is for today.
I did some research on resetting the total page, but their solution doesnt work on my special case (very complicate..). A similiar work out also apperciate.
We have timed-based subscriptions set up for our standard set of 10 client reports which run monthly with the appropriate parameters set for each of our clients. Our management has requested that we provide them with the ability to run the set of 10 reports together at will. So we would provide the client parameter and all 10 reports would be generated. What is the recommended approach to accomplish this? We are using Sql Server 2005, Visual Studio 2003 and .Net 2.0.
I've seen some theads on this but cant seem to get this right. Report A has 5 parameters 2 of them are multi value-- when I click on part of Report A I want to jump to report B and pass all parameter values from report A. The single value ones work but multi value only passes on value and not all values selected-- what am I missing here? Do I need to pass the values in the multi value parameters in an array??
Does anyone know how to pass a list of fields into a stored procedure and then use those fields in a select statement. Here's what I'm trying to do.
I have a front end application that allows the user to pick the fields they want return as a record set. Currently, all this is being done in the application. But, I'd like SQL to do it, if it's possible.
I'd pass the following into a stored procedure.
Set @Fields = "First, Last, ID" -- This is done in the application
Exec usp_return @Fields
Obviously, the following fails stored procedure doesn't work ...
Currently i am setting up a report. The data source comes from pre-defined custom datasets where i've pre-entered the parameters for both Month and Year.
I already have one table up and working, but now i need a new table below it with a % column for each month so it gives visibility for the trend in recent months. As the interactive parameters are already in place; when i try to create the table it comes through with the specific month that the parameters are set too, and change when the parameters are altered.Is there a way to ignore the parameters for this table; or get around it?
I have two input felds recieved date from and to fields. I would like to put one checkbox (not one for from field and one for to field) and when you tick the checkbox, I would like to disable both input fields indicating null values for both input fields. Is it possible?? If yes, how to archieve that?

I am trying to figure out a way to toggle the visibility of attribute data based on a parameter. Specifically, I have a report that has many columns that an end-user may not want to see, depending on what they are using the report for. I know you can toggle visibilities on individual columns easily enough, however I want the user to be able to select which fields (at the attribute level) they want visible on the report up in the parameters, via a multi-value prompt.
This is all a generated query apart from the filter. If I change the @RegionParam back to its old constant value (which was 'Europe') then the fields appear again. I've set up the Query Parameters to cope with @RegionParam and also put a Report Parameter in the Layout page that uses it.
I'm lost as to why the fields don't appear with the parameter in there...
I have a report parameter named "Schools" which display a list of schools. For example, Alo elementary school, Balo middle school and Calo high school.
When "Alo elementary" is selected the report only display students from that school along with other assessments data fields. same goes for other schools too. But I want to display different data fields for "Calo high school" when it is selected. It is not currently possilbe becasue I am using the same template for all types of schools. There some fields only should be displayed for "Calo high school" but not for any other type of schools.
I can accomplish this by creating two separate report, one for "Calo high school" and the other for other schools. But I want to accomplish this just by creating one report. So when "Alo elementary school" is selected it displays report with certain fields and when "Calo high school" is selected then it displays same fields as "Alo elementary school" but as well as some other fields too in the report. Is this possible? Need help.
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)
How can I create a Table whose one field will be 'tableid INT IDENTITY(1,1)' and other fields will be the fields from the table "ashu". can this be possible in SQL Server without explicitly writing the"ashu" table's fields name.
Hello SQL Server Experts, Data Analysts, and Report Writers et al:
re: Reporting Options with SQL Server
I wanted to propose an offshoot to the pryor thread:
Would anyone take a stab at comparing Access Reports, Crystal Reports, Cognos or other options to all the Reporting Services and its components offered as part ofSQL Server, especially as to extracting data from SQL Server into a report format?
I guess this is a far as capabilites, ease of use, limitations, and especially formatting or presentation of the end report product?
Thank you to all, and I hope this is a beneficial discussion to others.
I have an already published application running several MS SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services report. I need a way to find from either the reporting services log or the application server (IIS) logs or windows log to know the frequency of each report being used.
Based on this info, the business needs to know which reports are being used and to what extend? How can I acheive this?
I have already got the IIS logs and it did not give the required info. I have looked into the Reporting Services logs but it does not provide the info either.
