How to select column dynamically with sharepoint list as data source in ssrs report

Hi all,
I am creating reports from SharePoint list but i have requirements to select the column name dynamically with SharePoint list as data source. I didn't find any way of doing this..
Can anyone help me to resolve this issue..
There is no way of specifying column name dynamically here in data set query
<RSSharePointList xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<ListName>test list</ListName>
<ViewFields>
<FieldRef Name="ID" />
<FieldRef Name="ContentType" />

</ViewFields>
</RSSharePointList>

Hi MNRSPDev,
Sorry for the delay.
According to the current description, I understand that you want to specify column name in dataset query designer dynamically when using SharePoint list data source.
Based on my research, this is not supported by default. As a workaround, you can use XML data source. The XML content can be embedded directly within the query. This lets you use the expression capabilities within the processing engine to build queries and
data dynamically within the report. And it can be used for retrieving XML data directly from an external data source, passing it using parameters, and embedding it within the query.

Hope this helps.

WCF Service as Data source in SSRS report with Complex Types

Hi All,
I have a requirement where we are suppose to use WCF service as datasource in SSRS. I was able to do that when the WCF response type was simple.
Now the requirement have changed where the response type is complex . I couldn't figure out a way of accessing WCF with complex types.
Any pointer will be of great help as I couldn't find any related articles for this kind of scenario.
Raj

Hi Raj,
WCF uses a serialization engine called the Data Contract Serializer by default to serialize and deserialize data (convert it to and from XML). All .NET Framework primitive types, such as integers and strings, as well as certain types
treated as primitives, such as DateTime and XmlElement,
can be serialized with no other preparation and are considered as having default data contracts. Many .NET Framework types also have existing data contracts. For a full list of serializable types, see Types
Supported by the Data Contract Serializer.
New complex types that you create must have a data contract defined
for them to be serializable. You can explicitly create a data contract by using DataContractAttribute and DataMemberAttribute attributes.
This is normally done by applying the DataContractAttribute attribute
to the type.
You can refer to :
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms733811(v=vs.110).aspxhttp://www.codeproject.com/Articles/738844/Using-WCF-Data-Contract-Known-Types-by-Example

SSRS reporting with sharepoint list using Distinct and Multivalue parameters

i want create ssrs report with sharepoint list using ms-vs(2008). i want create Distinct multivalue parameters by using CAML query. There is any way we put CAML query where we use Distinct keyword and IN clause in CAML query... i hope all experts will
understand my poor English... sorry for poor English.. plz help me

Hi AsifMehmood,
Per my understanding you have create an SSRS report with SharePoint list, now you don’t know to create the distinct parameters by using CAML query, right?
For the CAML language doesn’t have any reserved word (or tag) to set this particular filter to remove duplicate results, but we can use the custom code to do this function. I have tested on my local environment and we can do that by create one hidden parameter(Param1)
to get all the values from the fields which will add the filter and then create another parameter(Param2) to get the distinct values based on the Param1, we use the custom code to do the deduplication.
Step by Steps information in below thread for your reference to create the parameters and the custom code:
"How to get distinct values of sharepoint column using SSRS"
Other similar thread for your reference:

If your problem still exists, please feel free to ask and also try to provide us more details information.

Use parameters in SQL Server reporting services with sharepoint lists

I want to make report from sharepoint 2010 list and forms library in sql server reporting services.
but also want to apply parameters.
I tried but parameters but it is not working.
How I can apply sharepoint lists parameters in sql server reporting services ?
How to run or view report of sharepoint lists or form library in sqlserver reporting services with required parameters?

Hi John,
When we use SharePoint list as datasource in SSRS it has two method to add parameter. Suppose we have a dataset (DataSet1) get data from SharePoint list. Please refer to the methods below.
Method 1: We can add parameter in the Query Designer dialog box to add parameter.
Click “Add Filter” icon in the “Applied filters” dialog box in Query Designer.
Select the corresponding field (Title), fill with specific conditions, and select Parameter option in the end of the row.
Create a dataset (DataSet2) fill with Title field.
Double click the parameter we create above, set the available values from DataSet2 field Title.
(Note: In the situation, we are get the single-value parameter.)
Method 2: It is a general method to add parameter in SSRS report.
Create another dataset (DataSet2) in the report fill with Title field.
Add a parameter (Title) get available values from DataSet2 Title field.
Add filter in the DataSet1.
(Note: This method, we can configure multi-values parameter.)

You cannot add columns dynamically. But you can define a maximum number of numbers and then hide unused columns in your form useing SET_ITEM_PROPERTY(..,VISIBLE, PROPERTY_FALSE);

Excel Services with SharePoint List Data in SharePoint 2013 - Chart is not refreshing automatically

Hi Everyone,
This is My req: I m going to display pie chart and Bar chart in share point 2013.
Steps I have follwed:
1. Export the list to excel.
2.Using the Power Pivot table I have done the chart.
3. Uploaded into document Library.
4. Added into the web part.
Chart are displaying. But When ever user added the data into the list chart is refreshing.
Is there any option to refresh the data in chart? Waiting for valuable replies.
Regards, Manoj Prabakar

SharePoint lists as data sources in Excel Services is not supported.That's the reason refreshing is not working. There are some work around you can use -
Export as Data Feed - Export your SharePoint list as Data Feed , use this data feed to a PowerPivot for Excel workbook and publish this PowerPivot using Excel Services.
User-defined functions - write UDF in C# and extend the Excel Services functionality to work with SharePoint lists.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/bb267252(office.12).aspx#Office2007ExcelServicesUnlimited_SharePointLists
Web Services API -
The Web Services API can be used to push data from a database and then refresh the data in a SharePoint Server list by using Excel Services.
JavaScript Object Model - The JavaScript Object Model for Excel Services in Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 provides many solutions for Excel Services.

Perfomance issue with SharePoint List.

Current System:
Our application (for submitting and publishing articles) is using WSS 3.0
to store content and host workflows.
Article content like PDFs, Images & Videos are stored in a SharePoint document library.
There is also a list in which we have configured a custom state machine workflow. While creating an list SP item from the UI, instance of the configured workflow instance will be triggered and start monitoring.
Each article belongs to a Journal. We have TBs of data stored in content databases. Initially there was only one site collection (“http://<myweb:8080>/ArtcleLibrary”) and entire article data was storing it the same document library.
Later we decided to split the document library based on journal.
To achieve better scalability, we have now changed the application architecture by creating site collection for each journal and keep article content (there are many articles in a journal) in corresponding site collections. We have added more content databases
and sites collections are equally distributed among these Dbs.
Now it is like (“http://<myweb:8080>/<journalID>/ ArtcleLibrary”)
Actual Problem:
We have achieved scalability in the case of content management by splitting document libraries among different site collections and content databases.
But still the SP list for managing workflow is in the initial site collection (“http://<myweb>:8080/WorkflowTasks”). This single list contains now 60,000 items (=60,000 workflow instances) even if we deleted completed list items older than 3 months.
We have performance issues with the current workflow list. It is taking time (avg 20s) to create/read list item from the SP List. Sometimes items are not getting created in the list item.
From MSDN I came to know than there are recommended count for items in SPList (2000
or 5000 items).
What is the best solution to solve the above performance issue with SharePoint list?
Whether the above mentioned our approach to document library will work for SP list also (means split current SP List and keep in each Journal site collection)?
Please advise.

Hi Andrew,
Thanks for your post.
I still have some doubts.
If we go like this, will OWSTIMER be able to handle workflows (custom workflow is attached to SP List) of these many site collections. We have now more than 600 site collections.

SQL function column in drop down list's data provider's query

Just wondering, if it is somehow possible to use SQL function column for drop down list through data provider.
At the moment, I am using id column as return value and name as display value from this query through CachedRowSetDataProvider:
SELECT ALL someTable.Id,
someTable.Name,
someTable.Postal_Code,
FROM someTable
However, I want to change display to use calculated column as display value, for example Name_PostalCode from below mentioned changed query:
SELECT ALL someTable.Id,
CONCAT(someTable.Name, ' - Pin Code: ',someTable.Postal_Code) Name_PostalCode ,
someTable.Name,
someTable.Postal_Code,
FROM someTable
But JSC doesn't seem to like this.
Is it someway possible to achieve this?
Thanks.

>
But JSC doesn't seem to like this. Can you explain more. When doesn't it like it, in the design view, in the query editor, when your run it? What is the error you are seeing?

Create a logical column with more than one data source

I'm having a problem to create a logical column with more than one data source in Siebel 7.8.
What I want to do is the union of 2 physical tables in one logical table.
For example, I have a "local_clients" table and a "abroad_clients" table. What I want is to have a logical table "clients" with the client data from the 2 tables.
What I've tried is dragging the datasources I need onto the logical column.
However this isn't working because it only retrieves the data from the first data source.

Hi!
I think it is not possible to do this just by dragging the columns to the logical table. A logical table can have more than one source, but I think each column must have just one direct source column.
I'm not sure, but maybe you should do the UNION SQL to get the data of the two tables. In the physical layer, when you create a new physical table, it's possible to set the "table type" as a "SELECT". I didn't try that, but it seems that it's possible to have the union table in the physical layer.
Bye.

You can't unlock it without losing data. It's too late for that now. You totally erase the iPad when you unlock it and you will have to start all over again. Most of your purchased content can be downloaded again.

Dynamic data source on 10g requires valid data source associated in report

I'm currently using the dynamic JDBC data source feature of PublicReportService_v11 in BI Publisher 10.1.3.4.1 (March 2011 patch applied) and it seems that the BIP report still requires a valid JDBC data source associated with it before the specified dynamic one can be properly used.
Using SoapUI, I tried sending a runReport request with a dynamic JDBC data source for a BIP report that is associated to an invalid/dummy JDBC data source and got the following fault string:
oracle.apps.xdo.webservice.exception.OperationFailedException: PublicReportService::generateReport failed: due to java.sql.SQLException: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon deniedAssociating the BIP report to a valid JDBC data source but different from the specified one on the runReport request does make this feature work - data in the BIP report does come from the specified dynamic JDBC data source. I'm just wondering if this is the right behavior for this feature? It seems a little counter intuitive because you already specified a JDBC data source in the request message which I'm assuming will be used by the report you're requesting instead of whatever is the currently associated data source on the report.

If it is open, then try
Named range: ConsolLink = Range("Consol File.xlsm'!Source_OpexConsol")
And if it is not currently open, then try
Dim W As Workbook
Set W = Workbooks.Open("R:\Root\Sub1\Sub2\Consol
File.xlsm")
Named range: ConsolLink =
Range("Consol File.xlsm'!Source_OpexConsol")
W.Close False

Create Report with CR4E and XML Data Source

Hi all,
I have a problem when create a report with CR4E that should use a XML data source. It is not possible to choose fields from the field explorer, because ther are no fields from the XML-file. Is there a general problem when using an ODA data source in CR4E? At the moment I can only create reports with a database as data source.
Please help me with a tip.
Thanks
Arnold

Hi,
After Installing CR4E Version 2 the code snippet for creating a XML-report not works as JSP. Has anywhere a hint to resolve the problem or a complete JSP-file?

How to hide two fields in SharePoint list when a dropdown value selected?

Hi all,
I have a SharePoint list which have four columns 1 Title 2.Type (Dropdown: option1:Issues Option2:Risk) 3.Risk Name and 4.Risk type. If 'type' value is 'Issues' then I need to hide field 3 and 4. In other words, default value in dropdown should be 'Issue'
and want to hide field 3 and 4 are onload without using InfoPath.
How to achieve this? Thanks in advance!

You can make use of jquery for the same. Add script editor webpart on the page and access the dropdown value and based on the value you get, show or hide the fields. Below are some pointers.
