Is it possible to include a text/string as suffix(append to the end of textbox) to an report parameter prompt string ? Something like this
Enter Date: [ Textbox ] format:mm/dd/yyyy
Enter Age:[Textbox ] e.g 50
I need to include text like the one that I have highlighted in blue. Could someone help me out?
Hi all
Basically I had 2 paramater which ComputerName and MemberName.
The membername was set as Multi-Value as sets as follow:
Label: Value:
Exclude Domain Admins Domain Admins
Exclude Local Install Local Install
And the query is:
SELECT id,
ComputerName,
GroupName,
MemberName,
ScanDate
FROM GROUPMEMBERS WITH (NOLOCK)
WHERE ComputerCN LIKE '%' + @ComputerName + '%'
AND MemberName NOT IN (@MemberName)
ORDER BY ComputerName ASC
The prompt is like this:
Computer Name [ ] Excluded by [ ]
The issue is in the second prompt I have to select
"something" which is I don't want to. I want the user to have this parameter as an optional.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Hello,
I have created a DLL and specific translation funtions for my reports.
With these functions i can manipulate all text and numeric data in anyway i want
depending on several user settings (like user language and user local browser settings).
The only textfields i'm not able to manipulate with my functions are the parameter prompts.
Is the a way to manipulate them through custom functions ?
A second question i have. When reports are deployed, they are deployed with there initial file name (file name.rdl).
Is there also a way that i could manipulate the description when they reports are deployed ?
example : when the user's browser is set to english he would see eg: Sales overview
but when the browser language is set to french he would see eg: Résumé des ventes.
Greetings

Hi,
I would like to call the report from an external source:
The report requires a paramater.
I tried the following:
<a href='http://Report.aspx?ItemTakeOn%2fItemTakeOn&ProcessNo=278'> Report</a>"
The link works & i added the parameter in the link (ProcessNo=278)
it opens the report but i still have to manually insert the Parameter.
Also tried setting the parameter as hidden.
How do i bypass this?
Anyone please Assist!
Regards
Hi All,
I have a question regarding how to use report prompts in SSRS reports that are based on SQL queries.
When I added the prompt into the query for use as a filter value, it says that there is an error.
It does not recognise the '!' inside the parameter prompt string. Example is parameter!month_prompt.Value, which the ! is not recognised.
Your help is much appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Mohd Fadzli
Request is to have a Requirement number from the requirement form generate a report in Reporting Services with the requirement number as a filter.
I can set up the parameter - how does the value get there? Should I be asking this question in the Visual C# group?
Thanks!

I am creating this OLAP matrix report and I tried to speed up the time needed for the OLAP dataset by limiting the number of columns in the dataset. I have two parameters, year and month, for the dataset which are set to multi-select values. Year and month are not assigned to the dataset as for the reason mentioned above (performance). However I do want to show the year and month in the matrix report. Can I use the parameter value when assigning the grouping for the year and month like "Parameters!DateCalendarYear.Value" etc and the same to the text box in the matrix report?
I tried it to the report and it returned with an error saying "The Group expression used in grouping 'matrix_....' returned a data type that is not valid"
Thanks
Is there a way to find out if the user entered the date in correct format for the report parameter? For example, I am using string data type and requring the user to enter date in yyyy/mm/dd format. Can I capture and prompt the user accordingly if the date string is not provided in the above format?

Hi All,
I have a report parameter which i multivalue. I want to display the selected value in a text box. I have written the following code :
=Switch(Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Count = 1,Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Value(0),
Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Count = 2,(Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Value(0) & ", " & Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Value(1)))
Which suggests that if only one of the two multivalue parameter id is selected display the same (Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Value(0)).
This works fine when i select both the attributes but throws an exception "Index was outside the bounds of the array" when i select only one of the parameters. Can anyone help me with that?
Also i want this report parameter to allow null i.e. if a user does not select anything he should still be able to view the report.
In case of regular dropdowns i have added a <Null> value to the existing values and set the default to null. But in case of multi-value, it does not give an option of adding <Null>
Hello,
since a couple of days I'm fighting with RS 2005 and the Stored Procedure.
I have to display the result of a parameterized query and I created a SP that based in the parameter does something:
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
CREATE PROCEDURE [schema].[spCreateReportTest]
@Name nvarchar(20)= ''
AS
BEGIN
declare @slqSelectQuery nvarchar(MAX);
SET NOCOUNT ON
set @slqSelectQuery = N'SELECT field1,field2,field3 from table'
if (@Name <> '')
begin
set @slqSelectQuery = @slqSelectQuery + ' where field2=''' + @Name + ''''
end
EXEC sp_executesql @slqSelectQuery
end
Inside my business Intelligence Project I created:
-the shared data source with the connection String
- a data set :
CommandType = Stored Procedure
Query String = schema.spCreateReportTest
When I run the Query by mean of the "!" icon, the parameter is Prompted and based on the value I provide the proper result set is displayed.
Now I move to "Layout" and my undertanding is that I have to create a report Paramater which values is passed to the SP's parameter...
So inside"Layout" tab, I added the parameter: Name
allow blank value is checked and is non-queried
the problem is that when I move to Preview -> I set the value into the parameter field automatically created but when I click on "View Report" nothing has been generated!!
What is wrong? What I forgot??
Thankx for any help!

I had thought that this was possible but I can't seem to figure out the syntax. Essentially I have a report where one of the parameters is populated by a stored procedure.
Right now this is easily accomplished by using "exec <storedprocname>" as the query string for the report parameter. However I am not clear if it is possible to now incorporate User!UserID as parameter to the stored procedure. Is it? Thanks
I am using report builder 3.0.
I have a report parameter called para1 which is a drop-down list and what I want to do is display another report parameter based on the para1 selection.
So for example, para1 contains a, b, c choices. if a user selects b, I would like para2 to display but if the user selects a or c, I don't want the para2 to display.
I'll go to a dataset, open up the query designer, add a new parameter, then refresh the fields, but the parameter won't be added as a report parameter. If I go to the dataset properties under the list of parameters, the value in the dropdown will be blank. However, sometimes this will automatically add.Â
Is this a bug in Visual Studio? How do I get around this?Â
I have created a menu report listing available reports and am setting the Jump to settings of each text box in the list to take the user to the relevent report. But I am having a problem setting up drill down to reports with multivalued parameters.
What I want to happen when the user drills down is for the report to open up with no parameter values selected. This works for single value parameters where I have set Null as the default value. But I have not been able to figure out how to do this with MVPs. Does anybody know if this is possible?
As a workaround I have been using Jump to URL (rather than Jump to report), which has no problem opening the report without having to pass any values for the MPV. But I do not like using this as I use different DEV/UAT and PROD environments so would have to amend the URL for each environment.
Seems like this should be possible... Any idea?
Cheers, Mike
PS: I should add I can Jump to reports with MVP without specifying a parameter in development studio but not when the report is published.
I understand that Multi-Select Parameters are converted behind the scenes to an In Clause when a report is executed. The problem that I have is that my multi-select string parameter is turned into an in claused filled with nvarchar/unicode expressions like:
Where columnName in (N'Value1', N'Value2', N'Value3'...)
This nvarchar / unicode expression takes what is already a fairly slow-performing construct and just drives it into the ground. When I capture my query with Profiler (so I can see the In Clause that is being built), I can run it in Management Studio and see the execution plan. Using N'Values' instead of just 'Value1', 'Value2','Value3' causes the query performance to drop from 40 seconds to two minutes and 40 seconds. It's horrible. How can I make it stop!!!?
Is there any way to force the query-rewriting process in Reporting Services to just use plain-old, varchar text values instead of forcing each value in the list to be converted on the fly to an Nvarchar value like this? The column from which I am pulling values for the parameter and the column that I am filtering are both just plain varchar.
Thanks,
TC
OK, I'm pretty sure that the answer to my questions is "no", but the boss is pushing, and I thought I'd double check.
I want the selection of one report parameter to decide what shows up for another report parameter. Specifically in my case it has to do with dates. I have narrowed the results down to monthly dates, meaning that the starting dates always start with mm/1/yyyy and the ending dates are always mm/31/yyyy (for a 31 day month).
The boss wants the ending dates to always be >= the month of the starting dates. So, if the user choose 1/1/2007 for starting, the minimum ending date would be 1/31/2007, etc.. Since the parameters are loaded at report initiation, and SSRS isn't really event driven, I didn't think this was possible. I just wanted to make sure before I tell the boss that it's not. Please advise.
Here's tricky one.
I have a fairly complex report that was given to me that was hard coded for single parameters. There is a dropdown for each market (created from a query in SSRS). The users have to run for each market each week.
Is there a way to use this report as a Sub-report inside a list of a master report and then use a mult-value parameter?
I want this multi-value parameter to build the values for the list and then run the "sub-report" for each value.
Essentially, I want to create a for each loop.
Any ideas?
I am working on reports in SSRS 2008 (not R2)... There are some reports with parameters that are hidden when the report is accessed through normal URL using ReportViewer.asx..The thing is that these hidden parameters need to be visible when the report is accessed using SSRS Report Manager.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI am extracting RS reports through a WebService:
report = execService.Render("EXCEL", null, out extension, out mimeType, out encoding, out warnings, out streamIds);
Some works fine but some are generating the following SoapException:
Error during processing of €˜ReportParameterTime€™ report parameter. ---> Error during processing of €˜ReportParameterTime€™ report parameter. ---> Error during processing of €˜ReportParameterTime€™ report parameter.
I set required parameters to their default values. In this specific report I have two required parameters:
1: ReportParameterTime, String
2: ReportParameter1, String
I set them to their default values (ReportParameterTime to "[Czas].[Kalendarzowy].[Rok].&[2007]" - means
Time Calendar Year 2007) but I am getting the exception above. I set parameters using this code:
execService.SetExecutionParameters(parameterValues.ToArray(), CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.Name);
Where parameterValues is a List<ReportExecution2005.ParameterValue>.
When I am using Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ReportViewer the report is generated without
any problems. I can see one parameter to choose: "Kalendarzowy" (means adj. Calendar) and can
select years, the default value is "2007".
What am I doing wrong and how can I fix this error ? Does anybody know ?

Hi,
I'm having problems navigating from one report to another one if the second report has a multi-valued report parameter. When I navigate to the second report, I don't pass any parameters, but I get an error "parameter is missing a value" for the multi-valued report parameter. I have it setup as allow "multi-value" and "blank value". Any idea what the issue might be?
Thanks.

I am designing a report which will be used under the subreport control of a master report, now i am using a stored procedure for the subreport which has two parameters.
In the subreports dataset parameters tab, how can i mention the master reports columns, since i do not see the master reports columns here. since it is a different report.
If i use a hardcoded select query then i can just say
select address, city, state, zipcode from customer where (customerid = @customerID)
but i am using a stored proc. how to define the parameters under datasets parameter tab.
Thank you very much for the information.
Hi all
I hope someone can help me on this issue:
I am designing dynamical reports, that are abel to run in four different languages - so far everything works just fine for me (I select my headers and labels from a database). Only problem is the prompt text for report parameters. How can I set this text dynamically?
E.g. I have a parameter where the user selects a storage - this prompt should be "Storage: " in the English report and "Lager: " in the Danish report. I have absolutely no idea how to fix this.
I am greatful for any help.
I have a report parameter textbox in my SSRS report which has the parameter properties as "allow null value" and "allow blank value" checked.
How I can ensure that when the value is entered in textbox, it should accept any character ie. The SQL code I should write so that all the characters inputted via the report parameter are accepted.
Hi All,
I have a question, How to user the Multi value in Visual Studio Report Designer.
My dataset contains the following
Select empno,empname,basicpay,deptcd from employee where deptcd in (substring(@gdept,1,4))
Here variable gdept is the report parameter. I am passing the value.
it works fine with single value.
( the source of gdept is a another dataset to list the deparment code+name,
Example
DEP1 - COMPUTER
DEP2 - ADMIN
DEP3 - FINANCE
)
when I preview, i have a combo box to select the department.
If I choose one deparment, it works fine.
If I choose more than one department or select all I have error message
"substring function requires 3 aruguments."
what is wrong is the query
Please advise.

Hi,
I have a RDLC report in an aspx page.
The report has a table one of whose data column has a hyperlink.
ServerName Date ProjectStatus
Srv1 01/10 Green
Srv2 01/10 Red
Srv 3 01/10 Green
and the second shows the detailed history per server,
eg for Srv1
Table 2
ServerName Date ProjectStatus
Srv1 01/10 Green
Srv1 01/09 Green
Srv1 01/08 Red
Srv1 01/07 Red
Srv1 01/16 Red
On click of the hyperlink a report parameter SelectedServerName is set to say Srv1 (1st row).
The report is reloaded and Table 2's data set fetches the results only for Srv1 .
This works fine in RDL format.
But when i embed the report in an aspx page in RDLC format the Parameter value is not set even after clicking the link.
Hardcoding the value works fine
ReportParameter[] p = new ReportParameter[1];
p[0] = new ReportParameter("SelectedServerName", "Srv1");
ReportViewer1.LocalReport.SetParameters(p);
How do i pass the value of ServerName corresponding to the link clicked and refresh the report?
in RDLC?
Hi there,
I've seen some similar posts to this one, however none with an answer and I'm wondering if anyone has actually figured out what causes this issue. I'm running SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services.
I'm attempting to implement a folder structure for the report server, therefore am creating individual solutions in Visual Studio for each folder. At the top level i.e http://servername/reportserver/ I am able to deploy reports no problem.
However creating a folder at the next level in the tree and then deploying to that level such as http://servername/reportserver/ManagementReports causes a Reporting Services Login prompt to appear. No matter what user credentials I enter they are not accepted. I have full administrator rights the server, the site and the folders in question.
Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks
Matt
Hello,I am currently trying to assign some string to a TEXT output parameterof a stored procedure.The basic structure of the stored procedure looks like this:-- 8< --CREATE PROCEDURE owner.StoredProc(@blob_data image,@clob_data text OUTPUT)ASINSERT INTO Table (blob_data, clob_data) VALUES (@blob_data, @clob_data);GO-- 8< --My previous attempts include using the convert function to convert astring into a TEXT data type:SET @clob_data = CONVERT(text, 'This is a test');Unfortunately, this leads to the following error: "Error 409: Theassignment operator operation cannot take a text data type as an argument."Is there any alternative available to make an assignment to a TEXToutput parameter?Regards,Thilo

I have a stored procedure that works fine in reporting services. It grabs the total of Yes's and No's by dates . But then i went ahead and added 2 more parameters to the proc, and now the totals are all wrong. I dont understand how that can mess everything up. Here is the previous stored proc, that gives the correct sum. I just want to know what im doing wrong, that the totals are completely off now. Did i set up the parameter wrong in reporting services. I have the 3 parameters list in the report parameter section, and even have them cascading off of each other. That seems to work fine. but for the first matrix in my report, but the second matrix with this stored proc, is way off. Please help!!.

Hi,
I'm having a parameter definition problem . The parameter will have a list of available values, i want to define the default value as the last available value.
Example:
Available values: A, B, C, D, E.
Default value: E.
I could define a member in my mdx query to define a default value, but that's not a good idea. It slows the report performance.
Regards,
Rodrigo
