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.

  • 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)

  • 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.

    Best Regards,
    Sridhar

    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

  • Is the Export Quality for PDFs in Reporting Services 2005 only 96DPI?

    I have been fighting with Reporting Services all day, and despite setting the PDF output quality to 300DPI, I have noticed that the image quality appears to be only 96DPI. I've noticed this because images with a size set for 300DPI are too large for the page, and images set for 96DPI fit just right.
    Could someone please tell me if this is a limitation of Reporting Services 2005, or am I just doing something wrong?
    I need to know this because I am up against a deadline with this project. I had ran several tests with Reporting Services but had never had assumed there would be problems with image quality.
    Is there any other product that offers similar features to Microsoft Reporting Services that you could recommend?
    My luck has not been very good with this project, and I'm assuming the response is going to be 96DPI is all that is supported...

    OK,  I have managed to get higher quality images from the PDF renderer. Here is what I have found:
    1) The PDF renderer in Reporting Services 2005 will size all images that it is given at 96 DPI no matter what DPI the image is when you pass it to the renderer. That means that a 300 DPI image or even a 600 DPI image will be sized in the PDF as if it is only 96 DPI. That means your high DPI image will render much larger than you expect.
    So you might expect a 300 DPI image that is 6.5 inches wide to render properly at 1950 pixels. Yet, the PDF renderer will size it as it were 96 DPI which would make the image 20.3 inches long!
    2) There is good news though. Despite sizing the images as if they were 96 DPI, the PDF renderer appears to render higher DPI images at a higher quality than 96 DPI. So despite the sizing being wrong, the image actually is rendering at a higher quality.
    This means that you should size the image to the proper number of inches based on 96 DPI calculations. Then you can use Bitmap.SetResolution to set your images to at least 300 DPI.  That should give you a higher quality image that is the proper number of pixels to fit properly in your report.
    I am able to do all of this sizing dynamically because I am using objects as my data sources, but I am sure there are VB functions you could use in the report itself to accomplish the same task.
    It is late, and I've been at this project all day long, so forgive me if I have explained anything poorly or gotten any concepts long. Yet, at this late hour, I believe this is what the renderer is doing.
    I hope this helps someone else in the future, or at least points them in the right direction.

  • Is there a way to convert Crystal Reports to Microsoft SQL Server 2005 reporting services?

    Post Author: Lourdes Hernandez
    CA Forum: General
    Our department has always worked with and we love Crystal Reports. Unfortunately, certain reports now need to be converted to Microsoft SQL Server 2005 reporting services which from what I read I think they are *.rdl reports. Does Crystal reports have any way around this? I would have to learn this other tool when I'm already so happy with Crystal. I was thinking If I could just code the report in crystal and export it in a specific format that would be compatible Microsoft, the problem would be solved.
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Post Author: bettername
    CA Forum: General
    Ditto!
    There are some software packages to convert from CR to RS, but none work 100% AFAIK, and will require manual tuning.
    Seems like a big hassle and learning curve just to get reports published via another method - I know I'd put up huge resistance if they tried to take my CR away from me!

  • SharePoint 2010 with SQL Reporting Services 2012 "Installation Error: Could not find SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\110 registry key"

    i have a small sharepoint farm "2 servers" (WFE) and SQL Server 2012 ,
    i installed rsSharePoint for reporting services , as a read the Reporting services is Application Service  with SQL 2012 not as SQL 2008 R2 with SharePoint integrated mode, so after installation when am trying to configure the  SQL Server
    Reporting Services Application services i got the below error :
    "Installation Error: Could not find SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\110 registry key"
    any kind of help would be much appreciated .

    I'm having the same issue, but to me it seems like the instructions I've seen are all over the place.  I already have SP 2013 and SQL 2012 SP 1 installed.  I already added the features for Reporting Services - Sharepoint and Reporting Services
    Add-in for SharePoint Products.  I didn't see the Reporting Service service in CA, so I ran the powershell scripts to add SPRSService and SPRSServiceProxy. 
    My initial quest, was to get the BI features enabled, which took me on the journey of adding the Report Services, then I got the error.
    Then when I read this about installing the BI features
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/querysimon/archive/2012/11/26/installing-the-bi-features-of-sharepoint-2013.aspx, which I already had SQL and SP installed.  Do I have to rerun and selct the SQL Server PowerPoint for SharePoint option?  I have the PowerPoint
    Configuration Tool on my SQL server, I run it and I get PowerPivot for SP 2013 Configuranoi is missing prerequisits:  SP 2013 EE is required.  Which I have EE.
    Is Reporting Services different or in addition to the BI Feature (PowerPivot)? 
    Have I missed a step?
    Thanks for you help.

    This is a little late, I know. but I just spent the day
    struggling with this very issue. Hopefully this can help someone
    else in the future. Here's my solution...
    on MX:Operation -- result="fillXML()"
    then
    private function fillXML(): void {
    var x:XML = new
    XML(wsProps.GetDatasetData.lastResult.toString());
    ...do what you need with your xml...
    I use an XMLList node of the result as the source property
    for an XMLListCollection bound to a datagrid. Let me know if you
    need more help to get it working. It works like a charm now that I
    figured that out. I don't know if it's a slimy hack, or not, but it
    gets the job done.

  • Share Data Source between multiple report projects in Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services

    I have a reports solution in 2012 which contains multiple report projects one each for target deployment folder and we use TFS 2012 for report deployment.
    We have a template project which has a bunch of template reports and all the datasources used in different reports.
    When I develop a report, I cannot "Preview" in TFS but, for deploy this used to work fine util the reports solution was in TFS 2010 & Visual Studio 2008 R2. Since we moved to TFS 2012 & SSRS 2012 not being able to deploy till I create all
    the necessary datasources for each project and now all the developers complaining that they cannot develop reports in TFS itself as they cannot preview (this problem was existing previously) and now not being able to deploy as it errors for each report "Could
    not find specified rds file". I tried messing around with the .rptproj file DataSources tag that did not help either by modifying it like below.
    <DataSources>
    <ProjectItem>
    <Name>DB.rds</Name>
    <FullPath>Template\Data Source\DB.rds</FullPath>
    </ProjectItem>
    </DataSources>
    Is there a way I could share a Data Source between multiple projects in Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services?
    Thanks in advance.............

    Hi ione721,
    According to your description, you want to create a shared data source which works for multiple projects. Right?
    In Reporting Services, A shared data source is a set of data source connection properties that can be referenced by multiple reports, models, and data-driven subscriptions that run on a Reporting Services report server. It must be within one project.
    We can't specify one data source working for multple projects. In this scenario, we suggest you put those reports into one project. Otherwise you can only create one data source for each project.
    If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
    Best Regards,
    Simon Hou
