Change all reports data source connection

I have numerous SQL reports that require their data source connection changed. Does anyone have code to change all reports that use a data source name of 'Data_Warehouse_Main' to a different shared connection.
Thanks

Hi BiscuitB,
According to your description, there are numerous SQL reports and their data source need to be changed. You used RSScripter but it does not work.
In Reporting Services, if we want to change data sources of multiple SSRS Report, we can use Powershell to set the data sources for an item in a report server database or SharePoint library. To achieve your goal, we need to use both the Reporting Service
GetItemDataSources Method and the SetItemDataSources Method. You can refer to the thread provided by PrajapatiNeha, and the PowerShell script sample will be helpful for you.
Reference:
GetItemDataSources Method
SetItemDataSources Method
If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,
Wendy Fu

SAP Crystal Reports data source connection problem using sap business one

Hi,
I m facing a problem regarding: SAP Crystal Reports data source connection problem using sap business one
I am trying to create a Crystal report but when I try to configure a new connection it does not work.
I select Sap Business One data source and try to complete the information required to connection but it does not list my companies databases, what is the problem?
Our Current SAP related software details are as follows:
OS: Windows Server 2008
SAP B1 Version: SAP B1 9 (902001) Patch 9
SAP Crystal Report Version: 14.0.4.738 RTM
Database: MS SQL Server 2008 R2
I have also added some screenshots of the issues.
Please have a look and let me know if you have any questions or any further clarifications.
I m eagerly waiting for a quick and positive reply.

Hi,
There is problem with SAP Business One date source.
I had faced same problem, I used OLEDB Data-source, and it worked fine for me.
So, try to use OLEDB.

rptDoc.setdatasource(reportTable)
formRpt.RptViewer.reportsource = rptDoc
formRpt.showdialog()
now
when i use one table report with (select from one table) >>>>> works perfectly
but when i use report retrieve data from 2 tables and group   data like using

from 'table1'
INNER JOIN 'table2' ON 'table'.'coulumn' = 'table2'.'column'
it's not working and formrpt shown but asking for database login
I noted that in database login window : server name refer to ORIGINAL DATABASE USED BY Report Creator not to my local database
================================================
i tried to set
rptDoc.datasourceconnection.item(0).setconnection("","databse file path and name", False)
rptDoc.datasourceconnection.item(0).setlogin("admin","")
but the same

Unable to generate Power View report out of Multidimensional report data source

Hi,
I have created 'Report Data Source' connection to point to Multidimensional cube on Share Point site. But when I try to create a new Power View report out of it, I get following error message :
"An error occured while loading the model for the item or data source 'http://*********/PowerPivot Gallery/TestCube.rsds'. Verify that the connection information is correct and that you have permission to access the data source."
I can see following message in the <moreInformation> section :
<Source>Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Analysis Services</Source><Message>Errors in the metadata manager. The current model can only be expressed when the client is requesting tabular view metadata with VERSION restriction of 2.0 or later.</Message>
Following are the System configurations :
1) SSAS : SQL Server 2012 + SP2 (version 11.0.5058)
2) Share Point 2013
As mentioned in one of the MSDN documents this configuration supports creation of Power View reports on multidimensional cube.
Can any one suggest what might be the issue?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Dipti,
According to your description, you get the connection failure when creating a power view report, and it throws information "Errors in the metadata manager. The current model can only be expressed when the client is requesting tabular view metadata with
VERSION restriction of 2.0 or later." Right?
Based on the error message, the issue should be the SSRS on sharepoint metadata version mismatch when sending to SSAS. There's someone mentioned in a similar thread that this issue can be solved by installing the full package of CU4 for SP1.
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/133558cd-ffc8-4608-ae45-fdff01770c6d/powerview-sql-2012-sp1-cu4-cannot-connect-to-dimensional-metadata-version-11?forum=sqlreportingservices
Even you already have SP2 installed, it supposed included CU1~CU9 for SP1. However, it has reported that SP2 doesn't fix all bugs which supposed to be fixed in CU for SP1.
SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 2 is available - but there's a catch!
So please re-install the full CU4 for SP1, restart the services and try again.

Missing Connection Types in Report Data Source Properties

I am running three installations of SharePoint 2013 with SQL 2012 for Business Intelligence, with Kerberos working.
I have been having intermittent issues with SQL Reporting Services in a multi-server configuration, but finally had it working in all three environments. We discovered many of our issues were caused by master page customizations which we have now disabled
temporarily while we work on function issues.
However, we started having a new problem with Reporting Services on just ONE of the environments, and we are not sure what happened. Most everything appears to still be working, except Reporting Services. I have verified that features are enabled
in both the farm and the site collection, as well as insured managed content types are being allowed on the target document libraries. I also verified the Reporting Service properties and database connections. However, I have found two clear symptoms
which I can find no other information regarding (in logs or in online searches):
1) If we try to create a new "Report Data Source" using the SharePoint UI, it will open a new Data Source Properties window, but in the "Data Source Type" field, there are no values available for me to select my connection type (e.g.,
Microsoft SQL Server).
2) In Central Administration, while administering the Reporting Services Service Application, I can manage a majority of the settings, including System Settings, Manage Jobs, Key Management, etc. However, if I click on the link for "E-mail Settings,"
I get the dreaded "Sorry Something went wrong screen," with an error saying that "Object reference is not set to an instance of an object."
So I am hoping someone has an idea of where I can look for additional information on this issue, or even better, knows what I am missing to get Reporting Services functional again in this environment!
Thanks in advance for any help provided.
Elohir

However, we started having a new problem with Reporting Services on just ONE of the environments, and we are not sure what happened.
Hi Elohir,
I assume you are installing Reporting Services SharePoint mode for SharePoint 2013, you need to:
1. Install "Reporting Services – SharePoint" and "Reporting Services add-in for SharePoint Products" on the SharePoint server that the SSRS service will run on. All other SP servers only need the "Reporting Services
add-in for SharePoint Products."
2. Run the Insall-SPRSService and Install-SPRSServiceProxy on Central Admin and SSRS server.
3. Start SSRS Service only on desired SSRS servers.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj219068.aspx
Since the issue occurs only to one of the environments, please provide more information about your multi-server configuration, and point out the server where the issue occurs.

Xcelsius - Crystal Report Data Consumer connection Issues

Sorry for the long post but i hope with the full explaination, i can get a quick answer & solution.
Using Crystal Reports 2008 and Xcelsius 2008 Engage, SQL 2008 stored procedure.
I have tested the Crystal Reports Data Consumer connection within the Xcelsius program, using the following steps :
1. Create a stored procedure that returns the Continent Name and the Count of Projects within each Continent.
2. Create a Crystal Report using the stored procedure, 2 columns in the Details section, column names in the Page Header section.
3. Save and export this as an Excel spreadsheet.
4. Open the Xcelsius program, new file and import spreadsheet. Column A is the Continent Name, Column B is the Count.
5. Without altering the spreadsheet, I created a graph using the data imbedded. i.Bar Graph, series and row selections. Ii. Pie chart with row data selection. Iii.Column data as series and row selections.
6. Created a Crystal Report Data Consumer connection using the data imbedded within then spreadsheet. The column A as the u201CRow Headersu201D & column B as the u201CDatau201D. Took quite a while to get the right combination of selected components so that the preview actually showed the data and the corresponding data labels. The Legend still hasnu2019t shown up.
7. Save and Export as Flash (swf) file.
8. Close Xcelsius and open Crystal Reports.
9. Open the same report used to create the spreadsheet and Insert -> Flash, choosing the newly created swf file.
10. Link the data displayed On the Crystal Report to the Flash file now embedded, using the Flash Expert. Have tried both with the data listed on the Report, and the data listed as the result of the stored procedure.
11. Previewed and the Data shown on the Graph does match the data listed within the Details section of the Report.
12. I then altered the stored procedure to add u201C1u201D to all counts, and refreshed the Crystal Report. (I cannot add new data to the underlying database/tables, due to various other folks & projects using that same database.)
13. The listed data does change to match the changes within the procedure.
14. The Data labels on the Graph do change to match the changes within the procedure.
15. The Actual Displayed Data within the Graph Does Not change to match the changes within the procedure.
I have attempted this with a pie chart, a bar and column charts with the same affect.
I have searched the web, printed out 4 different examples on how to make this work and still it is hit or miss. I still can not get the legend to show up, either in the preview or the within the Crystal Reports. When I preview the graph before adding the Crystal Report Data Consumer connections, it does work.
Please someone tell me, What am I missing here ?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Venugopal,
Please refer to the blogs below and see if it works for your case:

http://badalratra.wordpress.com/2014/03/13/error-the-content-type-texthtml/
To create a Power View report, start Power View from a
data model file in SharePoint Server 2010 or 2013. Models, or connections to models, can be in a SharePoint Server document library or in a
Power Pivot Gallery, a special purpose SharePoint Server document library that provides rich preview and document management for published Microsoft Excel workbooks that contain data models.

Limit string-length in Reporting Data Source

Hello,
we want to report some attributes to the BI. For this we use the standard reporting activity in the BPM. After we done a lot of configuration on the CE and the BI we achieved to connect the two systems. All attributes are passed correctly to the BI and now we have a problem with the string-length we pass to the BI. The string-length they get from the CE is 512 but the BI can only handle strings with a 60-length. Is it possible to limit the length of a string in the BPM or the CE?
Manuel

Hello Jun,
I have created reporting data source in my BPM where my parameter defined is of type "STRING'.
This data source is accessed by BW system for reporting purpose where they get an error as below -
"STRING/XTRING types used Not supported by currently selected access method UDCGEN; cannot use this method"
Looks like BW does not support string type, how can we make this datatype compatible?
Please share if you have any idea.
Thanks,
Priya

Defining multiple Crystal Report Data Consumer connections?

I am creating a Xcelsius object that uses data from Crystal Reports.
To do that, I define Crystal Report Data Consumer connection. With this I can use Crystal to connect to the data source, create table of data (crosstab) and pass it to the flash object.
But I can only define one such connection. Why can't I define more that one?
I would like to pass two different sets of data and use them in different parts of the dashboard. Trying to get all the data into a single crosstab may not be possible.
Is there another way to do this?
Thanks.
Tim

I have found that I can pass any number of tables of data from CR to XC using flashvars, either XML or CSV.
XML is easy, but you chew up 17 chars (64 bytes) in XML chars per column marker. And with a 64KB string max, you're left with at most 1K data points, and that's with no data!
CSV is old school XC 4.5, converting an array in to a row-order string, not nearly as convenient as a Crystal Report Data Consumers, but it works and you have only a 4 byte overhead per column (the comma.)
Converting cross-tabs to strings, though, can be a bear because cross-tabs are evaluated column-order and you may not know how many columns you are going to have.
So use the Crystal Reports Data Consumer for the intricate cross-tab and CSV flashvars for the other tables.
And then hope it all loads in less than 7 seconds.

Retrieve data source connection string from reportserver.dbo.DataSource

I would like to retrieve the connection string (and credentials) for each of my data sources (without having to click on each individual item). The DataSource table has a column called ConnectionString, but the data type is image, which cannot be converted to varchar. Does anyone have any ideas of how to pull this information from the database?
I have tried converting to binary/varbinary, and then converting to varchar, but I get garbage back.
Note: I am currently using SSRS 2005
Thanks,
Marianne

Hi Jin,
I downloaded your script and was impressed with the information it retrieves, however, it is not formatted very well with the name of each data source being on the same line as the previous data source so I updated the script to create a blank line between
each data source block, and also to include the login credentials used by the data source, and the path for the data source, which is very useful in being able to locate the data source for editing in Report Manager. However, it is not retrieving all data
sources and I don't know why. I know this for a fact because there are data sources defined that are not in the output of this script but I don't know enough about VB to improve the script further, or how the report server is configured to ensure the code
finds the missing data sources.
Here's the updated script.

But as I mentioned it is not picking up all of the data sources and I don't know why. I also don't know why it's so difficult to find all the data sources from within Report Manager. I'm new to SSRS but was told that prior to SQL 2005, this information was
easily available using Management Studio to connect to the report server but now it's buried in the Report Manager and not accessible from one spot. Bad move by Microsoft apparently. You'd think that there would be an easy way to find all of the data sources.
We need to migrate the SQL Servers on which reports are running, but we have tons of reports and, historically, little documentation for them so we need to be able to determine where all the data sources are so we know which to update. This is proving extremely
difficult. Your script helps but is not comprehensive.
Any and all help is appreciated.

Getting 401 error while creating a Report Data Source with MOSS 2010 Foundation

I have setup SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services with SharePoint 2010 Foundation in SharePoint integrated mode. SharePoint Foundation is in machine 1 whereas SQL Server 2008 R2 and SSRS Report Server are in machine 2. While configuring Reporting
Services - Sharepoint integration, I have used Authentication Mode as "Windows Authentication" (I need to use Kerberos).
My objective is to setup a Data Connection Library, a Report Model Library, and a Reports Library so that I can upload a Report Data Source, some SMDLs, and a few Reports onto their respective libraries.
While creating the top level site, "Business Intelligence Center" was not available for template selection since SharePoint Foundation is being used. I therefore selected "Blank Site" as the template.
While creating a SharePoint Site under the top level site, for template selection I again had to select "Blank Site".
I then proceeded to create a library for the data connection. Towards this, I created a new document library and selected "Basic page" as the document template. I then went to Library Settings for this newly created library and clicked on
Advanced Settings. In the Advanced Settings page, for "Allow management of content types?" I selected "Yes". Then I clicked on "Add from existing content types" and selected "Report Data Source". I deleted the existing
"Document" content type for this library.
Now I wanted to created a Data Connection in the above Data Connection library. For this when I clicked on "New Document" under "Documents" of "Library Tools" and selected "Report Data Source", I got the error "The
request failed with HTTP status
401: Unauthorized.".
Can anybody tell me why I am getting this error?
Note: I have created the site and the library using SharePoint Admin account.

Hi,
Thank you for your detailed description. According to the description, I noticed that the report server was not part of the
SharePoint farm. Add the report server to the
SharePoint farm and see how it works.
To join a report server to a SharePoint farm, the report server must be installed on a computer that has an instance of a SharePoint product or technology. You can install the report server before or after installing the SharePoint product
or technology instance.
More information, see

SQL ENTERPRISE: The edition of Reporting Services that you are using requires that you use local SQL Server relational databases for report data sources and the report server database

The error below makes absolutely no sense! I'm using Enterprise Core...yet I'm being told I can't use remote data sources:
w3wp!library!8!03/05/2015-19:08:48:: i INFO: Catalog SQL Server Edition = EnterpriseCore
w3wp!library!8!03/05/2015-19:08:48:: e ERROR: Throwing Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.OperationNotSupportedException: , Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.OperationNotSupportedException: The feature: "The edition of Reporting
Services that you are using requires that you use local SQL Server relational databases for report data sources and the report server database." is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services.;
Really? This totally contradicts the documentation found here:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms157285(v=sql.110).aspx
That article says remote connections are completely supported.
ARGH! Why does this have to be so difficult to setup?!?

Hi jeffoliver1000,
According to your description, you are using Enterprise Core edition and you are prompted that you can’t use remote data sources.
In your scenario, we neither ignore your point nor be doubt with what you say. But actually we have met the case before that even though the SQL Server engine is Enterprise but the reporting services is still standard. So I would recommend you to find the
actual edition of reporting services you are using. You can find Reporting Services starting SKU in the Reporting Service logs ( default location: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\<instance name>\Reporting Services\LogFiles). For more information,
please refer to the similar thread below:

By the way, have you installed the other SQL Server edition before?
Best regards,

Change of UME data source from ABAP to LDAP

Hi all
we are running a NW04s installation with separate ABAP and JAVA stacks. As we thought our LDAP would be available soon, we configured the JAVA stack as UME data source and of course the ABAP stack for the ABAP-users.
Now it looks like the LDAP will take some time to come. So we would like to change the JAVA data source to the ABAP, so that we can reduce the double work needed for the user administration (JAVA + ABAP).
Now the questions. Once the LDAP will be available we would like to configure the user administration to use the LDAP.
Is this possible, with or without SAP support? Can we get SAP support for this?
Thanks for your answers.
Edmund

I know if you install the portal with an ABAP UME it cannot be changed to something else but assuming you install as database originally then I dont see why you could change from db --> abap --> ldap if you so choose?
There doesnt appear to be any "technical" reason why you shouldnt be able to do this but almost all SAP documentation says you cannot. I assume it has something to do with data inconsistency once the link is broken - probably leaving you with lots of users you cannot delete. I get the distinct impression reading between the lines that you cannot revert back to ABAP when it doesnt work either, which is presumably why SAP do not recommend you even try .....

PS. Ive never actually tried it myself - ive been frightened by SAP telling me it doesnt work!!!!

How to query a reporting data source using ranges?

HI guys,
I was looking at the BPM Reporting API available and more specifically the way one can query and search for data, stored in a reporting Data Source.
I can see that there are methods in the API, allowing for a search by concrete field name and value, triggering data with exact or partial match of the specified value (query() and search() methods of ReportingDataSourceManager interface).
However, we need to query using ranges of numbers or dates. Can someone advice how this can be done without creating a method of our own processing the whole data set?
For example, how I can retrieve all data stored since yesterday? am I missing something in the BPM Reporting API? Any suggestions will be much appreciated.
Kind Regards,
Mariya Stancheva

i think you have to do it by your own code.
