Power View for Sharepoint 2013 'Feature not available'

Hello All,
We are trying to set up Power view in Sharepoint but every time I click the power button on a report we get the  "The
feature: "Power View" is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services." error.
Our setup consists of two servers.  One is the sharepoint 2013 Enterprise server and the other is our DW server that sits outside of the farm.
The DW Server has Sql 2012 SP1 (Enterprise) and two instances of AS, one in multi-dimensional mode and one with power pivot for SP.  
We were able to get power pivot working with Sharepoint without issue but we can't seem to get Power View to work.  I've read through some threads but it still doesn't seem clear what I need to do.  Someone mentioned that we needed to install Sharepoint
on the DW server but we would like to avoid that if we can due to the current load on the server.  Another suggestion was to install the RsSharepoint on the sharepoint server and that would enable power view.
I know there is already an RS Service app, would that needed removed as well?

Only SQL BI and SQL Enterprise have the appropriate edition of Reporting Services to enable PowerView:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc645993(v=sql.110).aspx#Reporting
You would need to uninstall SSRS using SQL Standard and re-install with BI or Enterprise on the SharePoint server.

  • Conditional formatting and extensibility in Power View for SharePoint 2013 on-premises

    Good day,
    Is there a way we could apply conditional formatting in table objects, specifically at cell level (green, yellow and red) to a Power View dashboard in SharePoint 2013?
    If not, is there a way to extend Power View to support these requirements. I know that SSRS and PowerPivot provide a wide range of customization tools, unfortunately so far the only customization capabilities that I've found in Power View are themes , fonts
    and backgrounds but nothing that could allow this level of formatting. What are the available options, only SSRS and PowerPivot?
    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Marcelo Estrada MCP-MCTS-MCITP-MCSA-MCSE

    Hi Marcelo,
    As you know, generally themes , fonts and backgrounds are supportted in power view, more details information:Format Power View reports
    Currently, there is no way to extend Power View to support these requirements. I recommend you to submit
    an wish at https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/
    If the suggestion mentioned by customers for many times, the product team may consider to add the feature in the next SQL Server version. Your feedback is valuable for us to improve our products and increase the level of service

  • How to build high usability navigation for Power View on SharePoint 2013?

    I have Power View on SharePoint 2013. I have both SSAS Multidimentional and Tabular model in use.
    I have several Report.drlx file in Report libary in SharePoint.
    When I click the file, it works fine, but I feel that there are usability problems like:
    A) Getting back to SharePoint site is not intuitive. Difficult to find home.
    B) Diffucult to move between report to another. Need to return Document library.
    What is best practise for displaying several Power View reports on SharePoint?
    Kenny_I

    Hi Kenny_I,
    Just as you said, we cannot directly navigate to Home page when we view an .rdlx report in SharePoint site. We need click the Arrow to go to the previous page (Document Library), then click “Home” to navigate to Home page. If we want to move from a report
    to another report, we should still use the same way. This is by design.
    If you want to jump from one report to another report, we can add a hyperlink to a text box in a sheet or view. Personally, I understand your feeling and how frustrated when you find this issue. So, it is my pleasure to help you to reflect your recommendation
    to the proper department for their consideration. Please feel free to submit your situation on our product to the following link:
    https://connect.microsoft.com/.Your feedback is valuable for us to improve our products and increase the level of service provided.

  • Sharepoint 2013 Workflow not available on Site created from Sharepoint 2013 Foundation Solution Template

    If I create a template on SharePoint 2013 Foundation, then create a site on SharePoint Enterprise (or Office/365) fully configured to support SharePoint 2013 workflows. When I access the site through SharePoint Designer 2013, and attempt to create a workflow
    SharePoint 2013 Workflows are not available -- you get message that SharePoint 2013 Workflow platform is not available because it is not configured on the server. This appears to be a bug in SharePoint Designer as the 2013 Workflows are available on the team
    site on the same site collection. There is no reason that a site created from a SharePoint 2013 foundation template should have this restriction.   To make matters worse if you then save that site as a template on the SharePoint 2013 Enterprise (or
    Office/365) system and create a new site from the that template you get the same issue.
    Anyone know a workaround/fix to this issue.   Have imported the template into Visual Studio but I can not find any way in Visual Studio to enable SharePoint 2013 workflows.   A solution that involves Visual Studio import would work fine
    for me.
    Earllibby

    Apparently you did not read my question very carefully.   The workflow manager is configured properly on this server and for the basic Team site in this site collection the full SharePoint 2013 workflows are available in SharePoint Designer 2013.  
    BUT they are not available on another site in the SAME SITE COLLECTION that was created from a solution template that was created on a SharePoint Foundation server.

  • Cannot connect to specific Cube through BI Semantic Model for Power View in SharePoint 2013

    I'm trying to create a connection to an Analysis Services Cube through a BI Semantic Model connection in SharePoint 2013 to create a Power View report. I'm able to connect to other cubes on the same server, and I have SQL Server 2012 SP1 Update 9 installed
    so it's not a versioning issue.
    I've captured a log of two different connection attempts to show this in action. I can't post links, but just send me a message if you need it, just in case there's any interest in it. The first is a successful connection to an alternate cube
    on the same server, and the second is an unsuccessful attempt that produces and error with "Internal error: An unexpected exception occurred.".
    On the SharePoint side, the error is reported as:
    Internal error: An unexpected exception occurred. ---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.DataExtensions.AdomdTestConnectionException: Internal error: An unexpected exception
    occurred.
    This cube was working the previous day, but it has since been edited and it no longer works now but there's no clear reason why. It can still be queried directly through SSMS with MDX queries, and produces no errors.
    Any help is much appreciated,
    Ryan

    Hi Ryan Myers,
    According to your description, when you tried to connect to an Analysis Services Cube in SharePoint 2013 through BI Semantic Model, you get the error message: Internal error: An unexpected exception occurred. But the MDX queries works fine in SSMS.
    It's hard to give you the exact reason that cause this issue based on the limited information, please validate if the connection string is correct. Besides, we can troubleshoot this issue by using the Windows Event logs and msmdsrv.log.
    We can access Windows Event logs via "Administrative Tools" --> "Event Viewer".  SSAS error messages will appear in the application log.
    The msmdsrv.log file for the SSAS instance that can be found in \log folder of the instance. (C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSAS11.MSSQLSERVER\OLAP\Log)

  • MDX not working in Power View on sharepoint 2013

        I have this MDX statement below that should be able to dynamically give me a % of total for any dimension.  IN power View (sharepoint 2013)
    I am getting an error.  It works in Excel and works in the AS browser but will not seem to work in power view.  Any ideas on how to rewrite it so that it may work.  I am surprised I cannot find anything on this online about this issue. 
    When you highlight the "#ERROR!" in Power view it gives a long description of
    "The Axis Function was indirectly referenced from the context of a statement other than SELECT. Evaluations of Expressions involving this function succeed only
    when indirectly triggered by a SELECT statement".
    CREATEMEMBERCURRENTCUBE.MEASURES.[Percent
    of Total] AS 
    //Used to get % from total
    IIF([Measures].[Total Count] = 0,
    NULL,
    IIF(isempty( ([Measures].[Total Count],
    Axis(1)(0)(Axis(1)(0).Count-
    1).Dimension.CurrentMember.Parent
    )), 1,
        [Measures].[Total Count] / ([Measures].[Total Count],
    Axis(1)(0)(
    Axis(1)(0).Count-
    1 ).Dimension.CurrentMember.Parent))),
    FORMAT_STRING="#,##0.00
    %;-#,##0.00 %";

    Hey Mike,  Thank you very much for the answer.  Just need a little more help please???
    I have added two separate MDX statements that should get the individual % for these two separate dimensions. 
    1. First does it look correct from what your saying individually. Would you write it different?
    2. Next can you show me the MDX that would combine them into 1 measure.  Once I can see how these two get combined into 1 measure I should be able to do this for the rest of the dimensions. 
    3. Will Power View ever allow Axis function?  Just seems strange that it works in Excel Pivot but not in Power View.
    WITH MEMBER [Measures].[Percent] AS
    Case
    // Test to avoid division by zero.
    When IsEmpty ([Measures].[Total Count]) Then Null
    // Test for current coordinate being on the (All) member.
    When [Status].[Status Name].CurrentMember.Level Is [Status].[Status Name].[(All)] Then 1
    Else ( [Status].[Status Name].CurrentMember, [Measures].[Total Count] )
    / ( [Status].[Status Name].CurrentMember.Parent, [Measures].[Total Count] )
    End
    , FORMAT_STRING ="#,##0.00 %;-#,##0.00 %"

  • Power view in SharePoint - Required fields not working!!!

    Hi,
    We have SharePoint 2013 and SQL Server 2014 and SSRS in SharePoint integrated mode.
    We have a "Microsoft BI Semantic Model for Power View"-data connection in a document library and by clicking it users can create their own Power View reports.
    We have in the document library defined a couple of columns as required.
    When a user saves their Power View report(File->Save as) to the document library, the required fields are left blank. They are not checked!!!
    WHY?
    Does Power View use REST when saving to the document library?
    This question should be in SQL Server/Power View/SharePoint -forumns, but MSDN forces you to select only one.
    How can we enforce the checking of required columns???

    It might be the result of nested script tags.
    <script type="text/javascript">
    <!--
    <!--
    Remote one of those opening tags and remove the closing tag in between the scripts.
    Also, I'm not sure if you are aware, but your site looks completely broken in Firefox. Edges are ragged and the text runs off the page in places. This is the result of using a graphics program to create your html. Image ready slices are fine for prototyping, but not suitable for production work because they create code that is fragile and too rigid.
    I also would not use the Flash header you have used just to display imges. I suggest using a more accessible method.

  • Getting Power View on Sharepoint to interpret latitude and longitude correctly

    After pulling my hair for a few dozen hours I come here with a simple question.
    I have a SQL Server 2012 View - joining 3 different tables, one of which contains latitude and longitude in Decimal(9,6) format.
    I have a Tabular model using this view which I push to Analysis services and further on to Sharepoint 2013.
    However, when I pull the longitude and latitude columns to the corresponding fields in Power View, the data is just placed standardly in the Artic Sea. Now I have tried changing to and from commas and periods as decimal separator but nothing seems to work. 
    I can get it to work using Power Map and Power View for Excel 2013 but not on Sharepoint.
    I have spent a great deal of time on Google searching for answers but nothing seems to adress this issue, despite it being asked before 

    I too have been frustrated by this behavior. I also have issues with locations in Puerto Rico showing up in Europe using the zip code and/or state. I've found when I use lat/long things look correct which makes resolving this
    issue even more pressing for me.
    Unfortunately in the SharePoint construct you cannot control how the api interrupts the address like you can in Excel. I think that is why models in excel recognize latitude and longitude without issue but in SharePoint it's a no go. I have
    not tried to see if the tabular construct recognizes lat/long.

  • What is max size of slicer values in Power View on SharePoint?

    I have Power View on SharePoint 2013 and OLAP Cube on SQL Server 2014 solution.
    I should have 1000 values in DimCity, but not all are available in slicer.
    Why? What is max value?
    Kenny_I

    Hi Kenny_I,
    According to your description, you have 1000 values in a data field, but some of them are not available in Power View slicer. Right?
    In this scenario, as we tested in our local environment, it's not related to the number of values. We tried 2000+ values in a slicer. It can return all the data field values properly. Please check if it has corresponding value for each DimCity. It has
    no limitation on max number of values within a slicer.

  • Cannot insert object error using Power View in Excel 2013

    I created a short table in Excel 2013, positioned the cursor in the table and clicked Inset/Power View Report. I get a status window saying Excel is opening a Power View sheet but then I get a Power View error: Cannot Insert Object. I am able to insert new

    Any help is appreciated.

    Hi,
    Did you use PowerView first time? I notice you had found a similar thread and tested the solutions.

  • PowerPivot for SharePoint 2013 experience

    Hi,
    Does anybody have practical experience with PowerPivot for SharePoint (especially SharePoint 2013) to implement a self-service BI scenario in an on premise environment?  Some questions that I’m particular interested in:
    • What major problems did you experience during the actual implementation?
    • Experience in connection to existing SQL Server Data Warehouses as a PowerPivot data source?
    • Authentication of “SSAS server in SharePoint mode” to existing SharePoint 2013 farm
    • Resource Load on existing SharePoint application and SQL Server, for example does it make sense to create a dedicated application server for the Excel /PowerPivot service application, for performance / future scalability reasons?
    • Hardware suggestion for a dedicated “SSAS server in SharePoint mode” for a total of 1000 PowerPivot users
    Thanks
