Reporting Services :: Copy Subscription Settings From One Report To Another
Aug 8, 2013
I have three SSRS reports that I modified. The original reports had several subscriptions associated with them. When I deployed the new reports, I placed the old reports into a folder called Archive and renamed them. Now I have these new reports with the original names of the first versions of the reports.
My question is is it possible to somehow replicate the schedules of the original reports to the new reports? There are about 30 subscriptions with between 5-10 recipients, and it would be a real pain to have to manually recreate those subscriptions.
Installed SQL Server 2008 with Reporting Services to a Windows Server 2008 box. Tried to open the Report Manager and had no tabs and no Site Settings link - just a blank home page. I am logged onto the server with local administrator rights, so it shouldn't be a permissions issue.
Thinking the installation was bad (IIS was not installed before installing SSRS), I uninstalled and re-installed SSRS after setting up IIS 7 on the server. Still the same issue - just a blank home page in report manager with no ability to add users or assign roles or see anything except the links for "Home", "My Subscriptions", and "Help".
Is it possible to set up a report subscription in SSRS where there is no value provided for the 'To' address, instead adding all recipients into the BCC field, so that each recipient receives a copy of the report without being able to see the other recipients?Note, i am wanting to create a data driven subscription rather than a static subscription. I am using SSRS 2008 r2.
How to achieve by using SSRS. How we can "quick run" report within the subscription menu to ensure report was set up correctly during creation.  Is there any way to generate sample subscriped report without waiting for scheduled time.
I mean whether we can verify the report parameters & data in generated the report. I have verified SSRS report manager .i cant see any button or option to test run the report in subscription feature.
Can anyone give me info on how the report processing page works in reporting services.
My application makes some pretty heavy queries to the database and I would like to have a message appear on the page whilst the request is being processed.
Something identical to the way reporting services deals with this would be absolutely perfect!
I have a report whose parameters are limited by the user who is logged in. Ex. if a user had full access they would see all 100 hospitals in our hospital parameter, if another user had limited access they might only see 5 - this will vary largely on who is logged in. The data source that drives these parameters are set as follows:
Credentials stored securely in the report server, username and password are entered and Impersonate the authenticated user after a connection has been made to the data source is checked.I now want to cache this report for X minutes. So I goto Properties/Execution and select 'Cache a temporary copy of the report. Expire copy of report after a number of minutes'.
Applying this gives me the error: Credentials used to run this report are not stored.
I have a report that gets sends out through a subscription and sometimes the report has multiple pages and all those pages appear within one email.Is it possible to set the subscription in such a way that an email is sent per page when the subscription executes.
Has anyone ever worked with the Reporting Services Device Information Settings (Render or HTML method) If so, were do I begin. I have read all of the articles and have xml examples but I don't know where to start?
Do I make the change in SSRS?
Do I make the change on the field that I want to alter?
Do I make the change on the report header properties?
What is the first step?
I want to change the excel device info parameter settings simplepageheaders = true. How would I go about doing this?
We are having trouble finding a lot of documentation around configuring the Funnel chart. Specifcally, we would like to know if there's an option to be able to place the lengend title on the actual Funnel layer. Also, we would like to be able to control the order of the funnel layers to match a business process order from top to bottom. It would appear that the Funnel defaults to aphabetical ordering of the layers. Any good reference for the options available?
I developed a report in development environment, which will later be deployed to QA, Staging and then Production. This report has more than 10 datasets and if the report is moved through each of the databases, datasource has to be changed for all the datasets. is there anyway that I can do it globally, what i mean is can i set up any configuration files which I can use in QA, Staging and Production.
Creating a subscription in Reporting Services/SQL Server 2K/ for the automated delivery of an email notification that report is updated.
In the subscription, there is an option:
Delivered by: Report Server E-Mail
that is in the "Report Delivery Options" section.
When this option is selected and the email generated, it comes from the email address of my predecessor former.person@emailaddress.com, I need to change the address to my own but can't find where to change it. Can anyone point this out?
I've read through several threads concerning the triggering of a subscription in RS by the use of a FireEvent. I have made this work using the following...
where MyScriptFile contains the subscription/schedule ids. This works if I am signed on to the ReportServer C:> drive and execute the command line.
What I need to do is create a trigger based on data changing in an SQL database on one server and execute this line of code on the ReportServer on another server.
Do I need to use a stored procedure, extended stored procedure, or WHAT???? to execute this command?
I have an issue with Reporting Services that I have been unable to fix or find any answers to. I hope you guys can help. I have a list of 10 reports that run during the period of 1-4 each morning. They are scheduled to run on each database at a different time (5 databases in all). So there should be 50 reports at the end of the night. I wrote a report that looks for the last status of a report that shows that it wasn€™t successful. The only thing it tells me is this:
Failure writing file ABC Production Report: An error has occurred during report processing.
When there is a login error then I get that message so I know it isn€™t that. Also reports can error out one night and then work the next night. When I look at the time that the error status was written I see that it took 4 seconds from run time.
Does anyone have a clue what this means or better yet how I can get all of these reports to work consistently?
I'm scheduling monthly subscriptions in reporting services. I would like to receive subscriptions every 2nd Monday of the month. For instance, if the 1st is a Friday, then report should be delivered Monday, the 11th.
So my question is: in reporting services:
if I set the subscription for Monday - 2nd week, and the first day of the month is a Friday
- does it consider the week from 4 -> 10 as the second week (because month began the week before)
- or as the first week (because it takes into account only full weeks)?
I am getting the following error when I set up a subscription, I am able to send smtp messages from the same server using a winclient, I also made sure that the user that runs the RS service is the same as the winclient.
Read all the ms docs about setting the email settings, have tried quite a lot of them, but for some reason i have been getting the following error. Just unable to bypass this!
I wonder if someone has had a similar exp.
Failure sending mail: The server rejected the sender address. The server response was: 454 5.7.3 Client does not have permission to Send As this sender
Installing a local SMTP might not work as our polocies are to run smtp from exchange.
When I setup a report with a subscription and after it runs it says that email address is invalid. We can send it internally by using the subscription but externally. We use a remote email host provider(smtp). Please help I have tried everything.. We are using sql 2005 server with windows pro.
Hi I have report subscription to send mail to external emails. It works fine for Internal email id's, external email id's doesn't work. Any body knows what configuration changes we need to do. Please let me know if any body knows. Thx vijji
I have an instance of MS Reporting Sevices for SQL 2000 installed with existing reports. I try to use timed subscriptions to export reports via email or network share.
My problem is that the shared or report specific schedule does not seem to fire properly. When I look into the event table, a new line is inserted as expected (every 15 min) but not report is sent via email neither on the shared drive.
When I try to schedule a snapshot execution it does not work either.
I am running RS 2012 installation and everything worked until few days ago. Now the subscriptions would not even run. When I configure new ones, after the time passes, there is not error message, not even a sign it ran.

I've Created Local Smtp to use gmailid for Subscription of SSRS Report by Email as we don't have an Exchange Server.
User this link to Create local SMTP
Studied few blogs that related it to agent service running under local system account, on my machine it was running on NT/NetworkService change it to Administrator of local Machine. Did same change for Database Engine of Service of SQL Instance.
FYI- My Machine is not in Domain, so used local administrator for giving rights to service mentioned above.
Below is the Screen Shot of rsreportserver.Config File

We are facing an issue related to SSRS 2012. We have Reporting Services 2012 configured on a couple of servers. On one server, we have created Datasources and Data-driven subscriptions for our reports and selected email as the report delivery option. But the subscriptions are not working. The LastRunTime column is NULL in the Subscriptions table in the ReportServer database and no email is being triggered. Also, no error message is displayed. The same reporting solution is working on another server that also uses Reporting Services 2012.
I have a Data Driven Subscription which runs every day for the previous day. If for any reason the report subscription fails, i would like to get the last time it ran successfully. I know in the subscription table we have lastRunTime, but it will show the recent one which failed but i would like to know when it ran successfully last.Â
Example: Saturday 5:00 AM - Ran Successfully Sunday  5:00 AM - Ran Successfully Monday  5:00 AM - Ran successfully Tuesday  5:00 AM - Failed LastRunTime column will have Tuesday 5:00 AM.Â
Is there a way to get Monday 5:00 AM which is the last ran successfully ?? How can i get the history of a subscription?
We have this sporadic problem where when we go in to save an edit on a SSRS report subscription, it gives us a duplicate job number error. When I look at the Jobs in the Agent, there are duplicates, so I need to manually delete both duplicate jobs, then the subscription save will work. If we delete just 1 of the jobs, the issue seems to clear for a while, but then reoccurs. This has happened to us on multiple reports, but not consistently. The subscriptions look fine.
I am creating a subscription to deliver reports via email on SSRS. Â One of the problems I am having is I can't add groups to the To: or Cc: fields for report distribution. Â I am able to add individual user email which works fine but it will be a lot of emails to add if I have to go that route. So how do you add groups to report subscriptions?
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?
SELECT USR.UserName AS SubscriptionOwner    ,SUB.ModifiedDate    ,SUB.[Description]    ,SUB.EventType    ,SUB.DeliveryExtension
At the Moment we use SQL Server 2008 R2 Std. with Reporting Services. I want to change the individual schedules (non-shared) for 170 subscriptions without using the web Interface.
I tried to change table entries for dbo.Schedule and dbo.Subscriptions but the reports did not run. I also know that here are Jobs in the SQL Server Agent for the schedules. Now I need to understand how the mechanism works that updates the job entries from database tables. Is there a stored procedure which can be used?
