Where To Keep Configuration Parameter Values

Apr 12, 2007

hi,

i wanna know ,where to keep configuration parameter values either in an config file (xml), or a parameter table. i have it in xml and its working fine , but for a few of them , i need a greater fleximibility to change the values at any time, so was considering a param table.

the problem is that , a common package which reads the config from xml , now will need to read it from a table , while in case of xml , a file path can be assigned to a variable to be used by the package, but here, i dont have any db connection specification, it may be loaded on various servers. is it feasible..to use a parameter table...??

How To Use Default Parameter Values With A Date Parameter From A Cube/Reducing Parameters

Oct 15, 2007



Hi,

I have parameters in my report. The user can choose the year, month and date (3 parameters).
Now I want to set default vaules for the parameters , so that the user sees the report for example for the current day without selecting the parameters. I tried to set the type of the parameters to DateTime and the default value for example for the year to "=Today().Year" . But when I execute the report an error occures . Something like : no validValue for this parameter.

My Attributes for the year month and date are from an Analyis Services Cube from a Server Time dimension .
Does somebody know how to make it possible to set default values for this parameters?



Other question :

Does somebody know how I can reduce the values for a parameter. For Example I have a parameter "year" from a server time dimension from a cube. The values which are available are "Year 2004", "Year 2005", "Year 2006", "Year 2007".
But I want that the user only can choose "Year 2006" or "Year 2007" ant not every Year or "All".
Or Other Example: The User should only choose a Date that is int the past or Today but not a Date in the future.


Thanks !

Is It Possible To Dynamically Populate A Parameter List With Values Based On Another Parameter Value?

Aug 11, 2005

Is it possible to fill a parameter list with values based on another parameter value?
Here's what I have so far (which hasn't worked)...
I'd like to generate a report listing information for a student.  The report viewer would first select a school from the first drop-down menu, and then the second drop-down menu would populate with the list of students at that school.
I have a dataset that calls a sp which returns a list of schools (SchoolID and SchoolName fields from the database table).
I have another dataset that calls a sp (with SchoolID as the parameter) which returns a list of students for that school.
Both datasets return the appropriate data when tested individually, but when I set up the Report Parameters and build the report, these errors come up...
The value expression for the query parameter '@SchoolID' refers to a non-existing report parameter 'SchoolID'.
The report parameter 'Student' has a DefaultValue or a ValidValue that depends on the report parameter "SchoolID".  Forward dependencies are not valid.
...Is it possible for the reoprt to generate a list of available parameter values based on the value selected for another parameter?
Any help you can give me would be great!!  Thank you

Refreshing Parameter Values When A Higher Level Parameter Changes

Apr 30, 2007

Hi All.

I have a parameter (hidden) that gets its value using an expression base on another parameter.
When in the designer, the first time when the designer loads I can select the Parameter that controls the child parameter (expression lies in the default value section). The value changes.

When I change the parent parameter again, the value of the child parameter does not seem to change.

How can I make this parameter change automatically when the parent is changed ?

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Neil

My Package Does Not Take The Values Configured In The Configuration File.

Jan 29, 2007

Hi all,

I created a simple file system task to copy a file from one location to another on my local system.

I used variables to specify the source and destination paths and now in my configuration file if I configure the values to something else also the package is taking the initial default values and not the values specified in the configuration file.

Can anyone throw some light on this.

Thanks in advance.

SSIS Deployment With Configuration Values In SQL Table

Oct 15, 2007

I have 4 packages in one solution. I have created one configuration table in SQL server for all the packages. For each package, I have a different configuration filter in the same table. Everything works fine in the development environment.But when I create a deployment utility and deploy the packages, the values are not picked from the configuration table although I have re-created the configuration table in the new database.It tries to pick up the values from the database used in the development environment and thus it fails. I have changed all the connection strings in the package after deployment but still of no use.

I am not getting where I am going wrong. Any help would be highly appreciated.

Encrypting The Configuration File Values Stored In SQL Server

Mar 8, 2007

Hi All,

I have the following requirement. I need to store the password for the connection manager in the configuration file. The sink for the configuration file is SQL Server. Though the password field appears as "******" the actual value is being taken as ""******" itself. If i update the SQL server table with the correct value, then the package starts working. But, the password is shown as clear text.

If i write logic to encrypt the password column in the configuration table, is there a way to tell the SSIS execute engine to decrypt the password before using the same for making the connection.

Is there a place holder, where i can write the decrypt code so that the decrypted password can be sent to the execution engine?

Thanks In Advance,

Madhu

Parameter Values

Apr 4, 2007

Hi,

In creating a report, how can you display a parameter selection that is a choice (for example, yes/no) where the data that is passed to the query is translated for the query. Selecting 'yes' would pass, for example, 'internal' to the query and selecting 'no' would pass 'external'.

Is this a setting that can be adjusted in Reporting Services, or is this just a matter of how I write my queries?

Thanks,
David

Parameter Values

Mar 5, 2007

Hi,

I am seriously stuck in SQL Reporting Services. And don't know where to go and what to do in order to achieve what I want to achieve.

1. In my report I have the following parameters. SiteID, Document Name, Document Location and Action. These values are picked from the database through queries and filled in the parameter combos.

2. I want the user to be able to view the report for 'Any', 'All' and/or 'None' of the values in the parameter.

e.g.
2.a. The user can generate the report and return all values.
2.b. The user can generate the report with a particular 'SiteID' but all Document Locations, Document Names and Actions.
2.c. The user can generate the report for 'All' SiteIDs, but one Document Location, 'All' Documents and 'All' Actions.

etc.

I was trying this out with parameters. But it wasn't working. Meaning, first of all I wasn't able to get 'All' from the database.

Can someone please help me out, or at least point me in the direction where I should be looking, since I have run out of options.

Parameter Values Going Crazy :(

Oct 5, 2006

Hi all,

I am having a serious problem developing my reports within VS2005. For no reason, on one of my report it seems the parameters have got a life of there own.

There is a collection of 4 parameters whose values change randomly (internal, hidden, multivalue). Regardless of what I set them to, once I click save some change, when I alter 1 parameter, the values of one of the other parameters change while the settings for the parameter I changed to not apply.

What is going on here, I have been developing reports without issue however this is becoming a major concern. Please help!

Kind regards
Taz

Parameter Valid Values

Sep 26, 2007

I am deploying an rdl that is being deployed in a server.But i am encountering a problem regarding the valid values of the parameter.My parameters have dependencies,and one of my parameter comes out with two dependencies.

Scenario :
User needs to input his userID to access Book A.
Book B needs Book A because the output will be depending on the its content.
And Book C depend on Book B.

Problem:
when deploying, only Book A will have the initial value.The dependency in Book B is only one,which is fine.It shows its valid values. But how about for Book C which have 2 dependencies? Because it doesnt show it's valid values..

Parameter Values Doe Not Work

May 16, 2008

Hi,

I use following code to generate a report.




Code Snippet
SELECT Portfolio,
RptSection,
RepExcRsn,
Report,
SUM( Units) as TotUnits ,
FROM Exc_SummaryData_Custom
WHERE (Report = 'Exc') AND (RepExcRsn = 'Grand Total') AND (RptSection ='New') AND (Portfolio IN (@Portfolio))
GROUP BY Report, RptSection,Portfolio, RepExcRsn

UNION ALL

SELECT DISTINCT 'ALL UP' AS Portfolio,
RptSection,
'Grand Total' AS RepExcRsn,
Report ,
CASE WHEN Portfolio = 'ALL UP' THEN (SELECT SUM(Units) FROM Exc_SummaryData_Custom
WHERE Portfolio IN ('CBank','DTC','EDirect', 'InstLend','ALL UP')AND (Report = 'Exc')
AND (RepExcRsn = 'Grand Total') AND (RptSection ='New') )
ELSE 0
END as TotUnits ,
FROM Exc_SummaryData_Custom
WHERE (Report = 'Exc') AND (RepExcRsn = 'Grand Total') AND (RptSection ='New')
GROUP BY Report, RptSection, Portfolio, RepExcRsn





My problem is when I input a value for Portfolio parameter, i get two rows instead of one. If I input 'ALL UP'
then I get value only for ALL UP. But if I input smthing else , then I get values for that paramter value as well as ALL UP thus giving me two rows not just one as I want.
Case stament always gives me 0 value for ALL UP which is not the true value.
can anyone help me to correct this?

Passing The Xml Configuration File To The Package As An Input Parameter While Executing The Package

Feb 2, 2007

Hi,

I am planning to develop a single package that will download files from ftp server, move the files to internal file server and upload it in the database. But I want to run this package for multiple ftp file providers. For each provider the ftp server might be different and the transformation to upload the files into a database table might be different.

So can I create a single package and then multiple configuration files (xml), which will contain the details fo the ftp file providers and then pass the xml file as a parameter while executing the package. The reason being that the timings of fetching the files is different for each ftp file provider and hence cannot be combined into one.

Is this possible?

Thanks for your help.

Displaying Values For Multi-value Parameter

Dec 15, 2007

At the top of my report, if I want to display the selected value for a given
parameter, I can put this expression in a text box:

="The xyz param's value is: " & Parameters!paramXYZ.Label(0).ToString

How do I go about displaying all the selected values for a multi-value
parameter (one that has mulitple checkboxes in the drop-down list)? Is it
possible to do a for loop and iterate through the values of the param within
an expression? Something like

for i = 0 to Parameters!paramXYZ.Count - 1
mystring = mystring & ", " & Parameters!paramXYZ.Label(i).ToString

And then display mystring in the textbox? Or can I use a list control on the
report?


Thank you,

Restricting Date Parameter Values

Feb 22, 2007

Would like to restrict the dates users can put as parameters. For example, I have a report showing all orders in year 2007. I have exposed Start Date and End Date parameters. When users click the 'View Report' button, the report will filter for orders where attribute EnteredDate is >= Start Date and <= End Date.

I want to restrict the users from entering a start date greater than today's date. Would also like to restrict them from entering an end date that is less than the start date parameter. How can I do this?

TIA.

Default Values In A Parameter Problem

Jun 19, 2007

We have a report that has about five different parameters. One of the parameters is a float value and we have a default value set at 999,999,999.00 and the report parameter accepts this value. The other parameter (a string) has a default value set at 0, however it is not showing up in the textbox for that parameter. The parameter is non-queried and is just a report parameter.



When we preview the report, it is there. Once we deploy the report to the report server, it is not. Now, the development machine is using SP2, but the Report Server is still at SP1. Could this be the problem? If it is, why would the float default value display and the string default value not?



Thanks for the information.

Besides, i can run the report normally if i remove the task of "available values from

query".



How can i solve this problem? Thank you for any opinion.
