How to set a default date as a parameter in Microsoft Reporting Services 2008 to January 1st

How can I set a default parameter for date for 01/01/yyyy.

Hi Giss68,
If I understand correctly, you want to set the first day of current year as a default value of a parameter in Microsoft Reporting Services 2008 report.
If in this scenario, we can use the expression below as the default value in the parameter:
=DateAdd("d",-DatePart(DateInterval.DayOfYear,Today,0,0)+1,Today)
The following document about DateAdd function is for your reference:

Microsoft Reporting Services

Hi
We are using SQL 2005 as a database for PCM v12.1 and plan to upgrade to PCM v13 SP1.
Has anybody using Microsoft Reporting Services for preparing reports ?
could you please guide on the same ? How good it is ? Is it easy to prepare report (in comparison to Infomaker) ? (i know it can not be shown like infomaker report within CM)
Please give your suggestions.

I simply find infomaker a bit stiff and not that user friendly.
examples of reports in a big summary:
- sysadmin > all reports if something is wrong (like some custom fields are not filled in, or one person approved as another user, etc).
- construction reports > field force (to trace or by site/project or by subcontractor history of workforce based on daily reports), some audit of new revisions of drawings, new transmittals etc
- communication > Report of minutes of meeting to trace by responsible person from our team and/or contractor what are the current issues, if there are any new notices, any letters (which we barely use);
- project review > each projects financial details - how much was contracted, changed, protocoled all in accordance to what was budgeted (on contract and/or items level);
- management reports > status with KPIs of all projects with devision into cost splits and cost per net m2.
what reports are you thinking of? Perhaps we could share some ideas.
If migrating to Oracle you will just have to change the data sources and if you are using some custom views () you will have to change the way its generated. It shouldn't be a lot of work.

Microsoft Reporting Services with BW

Hi,
I have posted it in a Reporting Services forum, but seems no one can answer it.
We use Microsoft Reporting Services as the front end, to render data extracted from BW 7.0. The communication between Reporting Services and BW is based on Web Services, XMLA. And the username/password used for the connection is saved at Reporting Services side. The connection is fine, and everything works. However, we have got an issue at BW side, that every time a query request creates a session in BW system, and the session is never expired! So after a period of time, the memory will run out and BW server is not able to accept any new request. We have to manully log out those sessions, and then the BW server becomes available again.
My question is how to set up the account in BW for Reporting Services request, so that it won't exhaust the server?
Thanks.

Just a quick addition.
by transaction SM04, what i found in bw system is that when a report is run from Reporting Services side, the BW system actually creates more than 10 sessions under the same user name, with type Plugin HTTP. And even after I close the request from the Reporting Services side, the sessions are still there until you manually log them out.
Shouldn't the session type RFC rather than Plugin HTTP?

Microsoft Reporting Services portlets

Hello Everyone
We created some portlets that show some nice charts from Microsoft Reporting Services.
The issue that we are having is the Export option
When we select the Export option, the javascript includes the root call
For example, the Reporting Services website has http://servername/Reports/Default.aspx
The charts on the portlet shows OK
When we are trying to use the Export function there is some javascript there that includes /Reports/ExportFunction.aspx?OUTPUT=PDF
When I have the gateway, I end up with http://portalserver/Reports/ExportFunction.aspx?OUTPUT=PDF instead of the gateway call.
Do you know how to fix this?

do you have the ability to modify the javascript file? if so, you'll need to ensure that all links in external js files contain links that are gatewayed properly.
i'm not sure i do it the most official way, but what I usually do is just have a hidden link somewhere in the portlet that will get gatewayed, and then grab the base url of that in javascript and use it to create gatwayed links.
(in portlet)
a href=/myapp/ id="mycoollink"
(in js)
var mylink = document.getelementbyid('mycoollink').href + "\xsrf.js"
..or soemthign liek that
OR move all the JS to the imageserver and point to it there

Select multiply value in Microsoft Report Service

Hi everyone!
I'm in the process of creating
a report in Microsoft Report Services and I have a one problem. My report is to show max, min, avg temperature in
specified room. I need to make such a
filter values: when I select one value of parameter (e.g. min temperature) must to show this one value in
the chart and table, when I select two value (e.g. min and max temperature) must to show this two values etc. On the screen is choice values of parameter "Rodzaj wykresu" http://pl.tinypic.com/view.php?pic=f0x9ad&s=8#.U_o4p2OaKyE
. I have a problem with Expression. My parameter have a multiply values and when I write sign "=" is error. I have no idea how this show or hidden values...
This Expression http://i62.tinypic.com/2s6m4o7.png is ok, when in parameter properties is http://pl.tinypic.com/?t=postupload and isn't move when I choice allow multiply values...

I thought, when
I want to make
a window to select my values (this: http://i61.tinypic.com/11hv5n9.jpg) I must have a multiple values (in parameter properties select "allow multiple values"). I try your idea tommorow morning (I'm
not working now).
I'm a beginner in sql (I know him
from 18. August). Thank You.
Yep
Once you check allow multiple values then you'll get parameter dropdown as per screenshot and you will be able to select multiple values which gets passed as a comma separated list and then you will be able to use In operator in filter expression.

Adding Barcode Font, Other PDF reports complete in warning

Hello guru's,
I am needing assistance with a barcode font problem that I am having. We have followed instructions on Tim's blog about adding barcode fonts but the concurrent program completes in a 'warning' status.
Also, other reports that were developed in Word that are getting output to PDF format are also completing with a warning(even though they have no Barcode Font on them). When I try to view the output through EBS it will not let me view it(though it will let us print the report to a post-script printer with a pdfTOps printer driver).
Interestingly enough, when we remove the Font Mapping(which was done at a site level) all the reports without barcodes complete successfully and can be viewed through EBS(and the report with the barcode font completes in a warning). So my question is, why does this happen and how do I fix the issue? It appears as though the Font Map which we created is not allowing the predefined fonts in XML publisher to work properly?
Thanks in advance!!!

Which version of XML Publisher are you in? You might have to install a patch for bar code to show up on PDF outputs.
Please take a look at metalink note: 373377.1 (in the bottom of this document, please see the patch info along with error info).

Using barcode font with distributed reports?

Hi
We have designed a report that uses the barcode font Code39AzaleaRegular3 that is supplied with Crystal Reports 2008. We use third-party software that incorporates a 'Crystal viewer' to allow users to run Crystal reports without having Crystal Reports installed on their computers. My question is whether we can install the Azalea fonts on these computers or would that violate any licensing agreement?

My question is whether we can install the Azalea fonts on these computers or would that violate any licensing agreement?
- You can not install the Azalea fonts as installed on your development system. Unfortunately at this time there is no CR MSM or MSI that includes the fonts. This issue is being tracked under TE 5000082393. New MSM and MSI files will be release with Service Pack 3 for CR 2008 (mid June estimated).

Using WebService from Microsoft Reporting Service(MSRS)

Hi,
I want to invoke the web service from MSRS Report. Below is the details of my environment.
Web service is deployed on the local machine.
MS Report Server : SQL Server 2012 Reporting Service
Designer Tool Used : Visual Studio 2010
I have created a sample report in MSRS side, which should call getXXX, a web service method in XXXService(webService).
I created the datasource of Type "XML" in Visual Studio, and given connectionString
as "http://localhost:8080/axis2/services/XXXService".
I created the dataset in Visual Studio, using datasource in previous step and used the below Query
to pass the request to the WebService.
<Query>

</Query>
or
<Query>

Hi Sridhar Singh,
According to your description, you created one web services and one web method, when you use it as data source, you got the error message.
To retrieve data from XML data source, the connection string must be a URL that points to the Web service, Web-based application, or XML document available through HTTP. XML documents must have the XML extension. The connection string syntax for a Web service
is http://servername /service.aspx.
In this case, please make sure that the web service is published successfully through url. Then we use the query like below:
<Query>
<Method Namespace=" http://localhost:8080/axis2/services/" Name="XXXService"></Method>
</Query>
In addition, the XML data processing extension does not detect the schema for us. Therefore, we must have some way of discovering which SOAP methods will retrieve the data that we want. The default SoapAction for the case is like below:
<Query>
<SoapAction>http://localhost:8080/axis2/services/XXXService</SoapAction>
</Query>
For more information about XML Connection Type, please refer to the following document:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd220468(v=sql.110).aspx

Microsoft Reporting Services Portlet

Calling Joel, hross, Troy Rackley, Tim Larson , et al. I have the ReportViewer control in the portal, postbacks fail due to a Reserved.ReportViewerWebControl.axd URL gateway issue. I saw where some of you resolved this back in 08, but can't seem to find out how. What is the trick for getting the axd url properly gatewayed?
Thanks!
Got it! I have ReportViewer 2010 working in 10g, as a portlet. No iFrames. woot!

Embedding Fonts in 9i Reports

Hi,
I know this feature is suppose to be available in 9i Reports. I am wondering how this is done. Is it suppose to be done automatically? What has to be done to specify a particular font to be embedded in the report? We would like to embed the barcode font into a reports which is accessed via the web through the reports server running on 9iAS. Is this possible?
Thanks
Chad

Chad
If you have not seen , the white paper is published on OTN
To embed a barcode font, you need to just do the following things
1. Select the font in the reports builder layout model for your object. If you can't find the font in the list, you can aribitaririly select a font and then do the aliasing by
specifying it in uifont.ali file under [PDF] section as example
Arial = <your barcode font name>
2. In uifont.ali file, under [PDF EMBED] section, specify the font name and the PFM , PFB files, like
SAdvac a. PFM a.PFB
3. Pass the PDFEMBED command line parameter as YES
Thanks

How to add a barcode font for use in Web Intelligence (WebI) XIR2 and 3x?

Anyone have the steps to add a barcode font to WebI XIR2 and 3x? Not finding a good KBase on it and was also wondering if there any "gotchas" in terms of printing and exporting to .pdf.
Thanks.

Hi Kevin,
Also, if the solution provided in the previous post doesn't helps you then try the following solution.
Following are the steps to apply barcode font (IDAutomationHC39M):
1) In Windows Explorer, browse to the following folder:
-- C:\Windows\Fonts
2) On the File menu click Install New Font then browse to the font you want to install.
3) Edit the properties on the fonts you have just added:
In the "Embedding" tab, you should get a property like "Preview & Print embedding allowed".
But, nothing related to a license limitation regarding the embedding, else, you will not be allowed to use the added fonts in PDF or XLS generation.
4) Once the above points have been done:
-- Copy the .ttf fonts you want to use in the following XIR2 folder:
<BO_INSTALL_DIR>\Business Objects\j2sdk1.4.2_08\jre\lib\fonts
5) Add the following entries into the fontalias.xml file, which is in the following folder:
<BO_INSTALL_DIR>\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 11.5\win32_x86\fonts
The template looks like the following one:

<FONTFAMILY PLATFORM="ttf" NAME="IDAutomationHC39M (IDAutomationHC39M)">
<FONTATTRIBUTE BOLD="false" ITALIC="false" LOGICAL="IDAutomationHC39M" PHYSICAL="IDAutomationHC39M.ttf"/>
</FONTFAMILY>
<FONTFAMILY PLATFORM="win" NAME="IDAutomationHC39M"/>
<FONTFAMILY PLATFORM="java" NAME="IDAutomationHC39M"/>
<FONTFAMILY PLATFORM="html" NAME="IDAutomationHC39M"/>

6) Add the following entries into the u2018i18n.xmlu2019 file, which is in the following folder:
<BO_INSTALL_DIR>\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 11.5\win32_x86\scripts
You have different sections in this i81n.xml file.
-- Under the first section
<I18N>
<FontFinder>

u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026..
</ FontFinder>
< FontFinder2>

u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026u2026..
</ FontFinder2>
-- Under the u2018font_aliasingu2019 section
<font_aliasing>
<T1>
u2026u2026u2026u2026.
</T1>
<TTF>
u2026..

<os type=u201Dallu201D>
<Attributs style=u201D0u201D filename=u201DIDAutomationHC39M.ttfu201D encoding=u201Du201D aliaspsname =u201CIDAutomationHC39Mu201D/>
u2026
</os>
</TTF>
7) Save the both files.
8) Restart the Businessobjects servers or local computer.
9) Login in to infoview and create a new web intelligence report by using the Java Report Panel or Html Report Panel;
10) In the left pane, select the "Cell Format Properties": you will notice that an entry "IDAutomationHC39M" has been added into the font dropdown list.
Just test the above u2018IDAutomationHC39Mu2019 barcode font, at your end and update me with the results.
Regards,
Sarbhjeet Kaur

Barcode Font not available in PDF after adding to Font Management

Hello CF experts,
I need to use a barcode font in a PDF document. I installed
the font in Font Management, but nothing happens when I attempt to
use it. I've tried to use it both in and out of PDF's, and it
doesn't work either way. It does work in normal HTML code if the
local machine has the font installed, but this isn't very helpful,
as I need it to be served up from the Server with fontembed for PDF
usage.
Here is what the Font Manager shows:
User Defined Fonts
Actions Font Family Font Face Font Type Useable In Path
IDAutomationHC39M IDAutomationHC39M TRUETYPE PDF/FlashPaper
/var/www/html/MM/IDAutomationHC39M_Free.ttf
I've tried using it in tags, CSS Styles, etc,
and nothing works.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hey SafariTECH,
The Server is the source for any fonts used? This hasn't been
my experience at all. Web pages don't embed fonts, but rely on the
clients PC having the requested font face installed.
My problem is that I have a unique need for a Barcode font to
be available to clients without having to run around and install it
locally. In concept I should be able to embed the font in
Flashpaper or a PDF and bypass the need to make the font available
on each client's PC.
Is anyone successfully using the PDF "Font Embed" feature
this way using fonts installed in the Font Manager?
Is there any easy way to tell if the font's installed in Font
Manager are actually working and/or available?
Thanks-

HG282DJ scalable barcode font card in HP Laserjet 400 M401dn not detected

Hello, We have recently bought an HP laserjet 400 M401dn. We quickly realized this printer did not print any barcodes so we purchased an HG282DJ scalable barcode DIMM card. Unfortunately, after installing it in the printer and testing it, it still did not print the barcodes. I have installed it the way it showed me on the HP installation process. (shut down the printer, unplug all cables from the printer, plug the DIMM card, replug cables and turn on the printer). It then suggested me to print a PCL Font List which, unfortunately, did not include the barcodes font list. I then connected directly on the printer's web interface on the Home tab - config page where it says "DIMM 1"...it shows "Empty" is the card faulty or do I need to install an additional software for this to work? I thought this was pretty much Plug-And-Play. Thank you.

Hi, Is your firmware update for HP Laserjet 400 M401dn compatible with M401a, we are still having the same issue regarding barcode printing , and I can't find where to download the firmware update for our HP Laserjet 400 M401a. My printer's Firmware Datecode is 20140521. Any help from you will very much appreciated. Thanks and regards
