Ssrs report from ssas cube , driving me nuts now...

hi folks:
This is driving me nuts and I know it's gonna be some small stupid settings. The question is pretty simple, I want to users to be able to pick up a week from date hierarchy. If I specify a static week, mdx query will run and report shows with
correct data and format.
Now, in the dataset I've created using query designer, I've dragged data hierarchy into the filter and check the parameter box and also put a default value as well. Technically, when I run this report, I am supposed to see a dropdown list with all
the available dates but I did not see any dropdownlist and report still runs with default value.
Why is this happening?
Thanks
Hui

Hi Hui,
Just as Gnanadurai said, a report auto runs when all parameters has their own default values. This scenario can also be occurred when there are no available values for the parameters. So if you want to see a drop-down list with all available dates when the
report runs, we should specify some available values for the parameter. For example, we can specify the available values come from a dataset field. Then the values in the field would be displayed in the drop-down list, we can select some of them to filter
the report.

Hope this helps.

SSRS report connecting SSAS 2014 cube not returning measure value

Hi all
Recently we migrated SSAS from 2008r2 to 2014 in Dev environment. when we are testing SSRS reports which are connecting to that cube is having issue. the measure value is returning as [Measures].[LSM Count] instead of numeric value.
when we connect to old cube in prod environment the report is working as expected and even the mdx query is working fine in Management studio of new cube. what would be the issue.
WITH -- Daily Graphic
MEMBER SelectedIndicator1 AS '[Measures].[LSM Count]'

Hi Surendra_Thota,
According to your description, there are SSRS reports with SSAS data source, after you migrated SSAS from 2008 R2 to 2014, the measure value returned string instead of numeric value.
I tried to reproduce the issue in my local machine of SQL Server 2014, but it works fine for me. As a workaround, please modify the query like below:
SELECT
NON EMPTY
[Measures].[Internet Order Quantity],
[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount]
} ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY
[Customer].[Education].[Education].ALLMEMBERS *
[Customer].[Home Owner].[Home Owner].ALLMEMBERS
) } ON ROWS
FROM [Adventure Works]
If the problem remain unresolved, i would appreciate it if you could sample data and screenshot of the report, it will help us move more quickly toward a solution.
If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.

SSRS Date parameter - current month from SSAS cube

I have a SSAS cube with a date dimension called Posting Period and now I would like to have my report parameter using this date dimension to show the current month.
So far I have worked out the following expression which are working(Fiscal year calendar going from May to May) for the year component - but I can't figure out how to get it to work on Quarter date part (and the month) so as you can see
the Quarter and month is hardcoded in the below expression:
="[PostingPeriod].[Posting Period].[Year].&[" + CStr(Year(Today())-1) + "].&[Q4].&[10]”
Any help would be appriciated.
Tx

Hi HCMJ,
In your scenario, you use the expression
="[PostingPeriod].[Posting Period].[Year].&[" + CStr(Year(Today())-1) + "].&[Q4].&[10]”
to set the default value of the parameter and then use it in the MDX query, right?
If in this case, you can use the expression below
="[PostingPeriod].[Posting Period].[Year].&[2013].&[Q" & DatePart(DateInterval.Quarter,today()) & "].&[10]”
to set the value on Quarter date part.
And it returns:
If I have anything misunderstood, please point it out and elaborate the meaning of "but I can't figure out how to get it to work on Quarter date part (and the month) so as you can see the Quarter and month is hardcoded
", so that we can make further analysis.

Help understand MSDN solution from SSRS dropdown and SSAS cube?

Basically, my problem is that the dropdown in my SSRS report is displaying every single day in my Date Dimension, so it's showing everything from 20000101 to 20201231. I would only like to display the dates that are included in my fact table; right now,
my fact table only has two days.
I looked at the following post, and it has the correct solution by Vinuthan:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/161e54c6-f258-4963-8d18-58addf7f2280/correct-time-dimension-settings-to-hide-extra-years-in-drop-list?forum=sqlanalysisservices
Basically, the solution is the following:
This should be moved to the reporting layer/done at the place where drop down is populated. For example,
If i have a report that shows analysis based on certain measure values, then in that report...the mdx used to generate that parameter value should be tweaked by adding NONEMPTY([].[].members, measurevalue)
The problem is that I don't know how to create this MDX query. Both [DimDate] and [Fact] have [DateKey]:
[Fact].[DateKey] is a foreign key to [DimDate].[DateKey].
Any help is appreciated.
VM

Hi VM,
it depends what you use as source database. If it is SQL relational database.
get values for your parameter using select statement from dim date using inner join to your fact table
it could look like this
SELECT ParameterValue = DateInt
FROM DimDate d
INNER JOIN FactTable f ON d.DateKey = f.DateKey
ORDER BY DateINT
If you use as source MDX query from olap cube you would use function NONEMPTY and your select could look similar to this one
SELECT
{} ON COLUMNS,
NONEMPTY(
{[DimDate].[DateInt].[DateInt]},[Measures].MeasureName)
ON ROWS
FROM CUBE

Using FORMAT_STRING from SSAS cube - not working consistently

Here's the deal.
I've got an SSAS cube and I am scoping the format of the measures based on dimension members.
Like this.
scope(( [Account].[Level 5].&[I000900000] ));
format_string(This) = "(#,0,);#,0,";
end scope;
I'm then calling this format in the SSRS report using typical SSRS trickery and hacks.
Well. When I run the report for one date (this is a GL financial cube), this works perfectly. When I run the report for a different date, it all of a sudden doesn't work. When I view the data in excel through a pivot table, everything is fine.
It's driving me crazy. Has anyone else experienced something like this.

Slow parameter from SSAS cube

Hi,
I've got a SSRS report which use a SSAS cube as source. In the report there are 5 parameters which are build in the Report builder 3.0 using the designer. The report server is a SQL server 2008 R2 with the latest updates.
The issue that I am having is when running the report if I would like to choose another value from one of my parameters then I open the parameters (drop-downbox)and select another value in the box - then it's like the drop-down box hangs for 3-4
seconds when I click out of the box before the value is appearing in the report, when I use the Report builder Tool. If I do the same in IE then the reports render for 10-15 seconds each time a new value is choosen.
Any Idea how to improve this?
The Parameter consist of only 5-6 values and it performs very fast if I execute the Query in the designer
I've attached the Query as it looks like for the parameter(hidden dataset):
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterCaption] AS [Company].[Company Name].CURRENTMEMBER.MEMBER_CAPTION MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterValue] AS [Company].[Company Name].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterLevel] AS [Company].[Company Name].CURRENTMEMBER.LEVEL.ORDINAL
SELECT {[Measures].[ParameterCaption], [Measures].[ParameterValue], [Measures].[ParameterLevel]} ON COLUMNS , [Company].[Company Name].ALLMEMBERS ON ROWS FROM ( SELECT ( STRTOSET(@ReportingCurrencyReportingCurrency, CONSTRAINED) ) ON COLUMNS FROM [SALES])
(the issue is the same for all my parameters)

Hi HCMJ,
In your scenario, you said that "the reports render for 10-15 seconds each time a new value is choosen".
Report server performance is affected by a combination of factors that include hardware, number of concurrent users accessing reports, the amount of data in a report, and output format.
To find out how long it takes to process a report and which process phase take more time, we can review the report server execution log. We can use the report execution log to find out how often a report is requested, what formats are used the most, and
how many milliseconds of processing time is spent on each processing phase.
In addtional, i'd suggest you enable SQL Sever profiler to monitor the queries fired by the report, once you find some queries took a very long time to run, consider creating the smaller cube partition or optimzing the query by adding index or
partition to improve the query performance.

Pass parameter to ssrs report based on cube

hi folks:
I am working on a weekly report based on cube. Users are able to pull out data by themselves using excel. Now they want this to be scheduled to run on a weekly basis via SSRS. The date hierarchy (date.calendar) is like this: Year -> Quarter
-> Month -> Week
I want users to be able to pick any week (only one week) they want and run the report. I understand I need to create a parameter @week .
The problem is how to populate this parameter @week in mdx since the source is a cube db.
Any idea?
Thanks
Hui
--Currently using Reporting Service 2000; Visual Studio .NET 2003; Visual Source Safe SSIS 2008 SSAS 2008, SVN --

Thanks Charlie, your solution is pretty close now. When I try out the shareddataset via cube, I found the following statement in the query via query designer:
WHERE ( [Checkoutdate].[Fiscal Year Calendar].[Week].&[23]&[2014]&[2]&[6] )
23 is the week no, 2014 is the year, 2 is the quarter and 6 is the month. I intend to create 4 parameters so that users could pick year, quarter , month and week.
The question here is the sequence, do I have to strictly follow the sequence [week - year - quarter - month] or it doesn't matter?
SELECT {STRTOMEMBER("[Date].[Calendar Weeks].[Calendar Week].&["+@Week+"]&["+@Year+"]&["+@quarter+"]&["+@month+"]
")} ON 0
or can I go like this as it's more intuitive:
SELECT {STRTOMEMBER("[Date].[Calendar Weeks].[Calendar Week].&["+@year+"]&["+@quarter+"]&["+@month+"]&["+@week+"]
")} ON 0

Lync 2013 custom SSRS reports from CDR

Trying to replicate canned Lync 2013 User Activity Report, but with more filtering capability, using SSRS. Necessary to do this way because we're adding details like user names, departments and locations from our Active directory.
Have been unable to ever find support on WHAT the query or stored proc IS behind the UA report. If I have that code I can incorporate that with our data.
Any help appreciated!

The CDR schema can be found here, which will be helpful for creating your reports:

Most queries start from the SessionDetails Table:

For hacking up existing SSRS reports to see what procedure or view they call, you'll have better luck asking in the SQL forums.

Deleting Data from SSAS CUBE

Hello Everyone,
I have a question, we developed a Basic Cube by building dimensions & Fact from the Source table(Everything in DSV, no Physical DIM and Fact Tables). Now everything goes well. The Source table will only have CUrrent day data.
My Question is: Need to delete particular day data from the cube without disturbing the Existing Data.
Eg: When I process the data on 31st of March, cube will have only 31st. But when I process 1st , 2nd data CUbe should have 31st +2nd data. 1st Dated data should be deleted from cube,when ever I process the data I just need month end data need to be stored
with current day data. all the other stuff should be deleted from the cube.
if I process the Cube on 1st of May, I should only have 31st March, April 30th and May 1st data.
Hope the Question is clear, please let me know.
Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks In Advance.
Thanks, Please Help People When they need..!!! Mark as answered if your problem is solved.

Hi BKomm,
I Guess the only way to handle this scenario is by using partitions.
Create partitions for every last day of months + One additional partition for current_date.
your where clause for current_date partition should be somewhat like this
Where Date = current_date And Date <> Last_Day_of_current_Month
so that it does not duplicate data for the last day of current month.
Saurabh Kamath
Hello Kamat, I was looking for something else inorder to delete the existing data from a cube. But your Approach is far better than making it complex, it did not strike to my mind. Thanks will implement practically and check.
Thanks Again.

SSRS Report Viewer display issues after KB2888505 and now KB2898785

After patch KB2888505 both IE 9 and IE 10 started displaying cropped images with horizontal scroll bars when viewing SSRS Reports.  These reports functioned and fit the screen without scroll bars prior to this patch and returns
to normal once the patch is uninstalled.  There is no compatibility mode icon in the address bar and I have tried all browser modes in the F12 Developer Tools Menu with no change. Rolling back KB2888505 was a temp fix for my
users until KB2898785 was installed reverting back to the same cropped reports with the scroll bar. The only versions of IE in my environment are 9 and 10 and upgrading to 11 is not an option at this time. Others have reported this same issue so
maybe we can get more visibility on TechNet.

Hi,
These two KB include too many Individual updates. It's hard to figure out which exact update lead to this issue.
If you make sure the issue is caused by these updates package. The simple and easier way is to uninstall them.

Can I have a browser report in SSAS cube that is Tabular. [I Dnt want the different columns to be in relation with each other, no grouping wanted]

Hi,
Can anyone here help me with a query I have in SSAS regarding a Designing on Report.
Basically what my team desires is a Report, which is already been made from OLPT DB. The nature of report is not of a Cube.
They need a Simple tabular report. Which means we want to display columns just like in SELECT Statement in sql.
When I drag my dimension on the report (row or column grouping). No data is fetched.
Simply can anyone tell me if Simple tabular report is possible in SSAS or not.

Hi Senthiaan,
Yes you can use "Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClient.dll" in your
.NET application to execute MDX queries and populate Datasets. Take a look into the following code;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
namespace ConsoleApplication2
using Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClient;
class Program
static void Main(string[] args)
System.String Query = "SELECT {[Measures].[Sales Amount]} ON COLUMNS, NON EMPTY{[Date].[Calendar Year].[Calendar Year].MEMBERS} ON ROWS FROM [Adventure Works]";
AdomdConnection oConnection = new AdomdConnection("Integrated Security=SSPI;Persist Security Info=False;Initial Catalog=AdventureWorksDW;Data Source=localhost");
AdomdDataAdapter oAdapter = new AdomdDataAdapter(Query, oConnection);
System.Data.DataTable objDT = new System.Data.DataTable("Results");
oAdapter.Fill(objDT);
foreach (System.Data.DataRow r in objDT.Rows)
System.Console.WriteLine(r[0].ToString() + " :- " + r[1].ToString());
objDT.Dispose();
oAdapter.Dispose();
oConnection.Dispose();
System.Console.ReadLine();
ADOMD Client DLL locates in the following location.
C:\Program Files\Microsoft.NET\ADOMD.NET\110\Microsoft.AnalysisServices.AdomdClient.dll

How to Make a report from two cubes

Hi, guys,
i'm trying to create a report use the data from two different cubes, but that's a problem. what i want to do is like this:
From Cube A, i want to get the total machine number for each type of machine:
Type machine | Total machine
Type A 10000
Type B 15000
Type C 40000
And from Cube B, i want to get the machine amount which has an error, also group by machine type:
Type machine | Broken machine amount
Type A 50
Type B 15
Type C 100
So what can i do to create a report like below:
Type machine | Broken machine amount | Broken machine ratio(%)
Type A 50 0,5
Type B 150 1
Type C 100 0.25
Thanks a lot,

Hi, Nicolae, use ur idea, i can get the table u show:
Type | Machine amount | cube
Type A 10000 'cube A'
Type B 15000 'cube A'
Type C 40000 'cube A'
Type A 50 'cube B'
Type B 15 'cube B'
Type C 100 'cube B'
but with this table how can i get the table which i want:
Type | Machine amount | % of machine
Type A 50 0.5
Type B 15 0.1
Type C 100 0.25
I have no idea, 2 things in ur idea have to be considered:
1. just show the record of 'cube B'
2. to get the data that cube B machine amount/ cube A machine amount
Need your detail explain, thanks

Building Drill through reports from aso cube using odi in webanalysis11.1.3

I need some urgent help as i have a important requirement for an essbase aso cube .I was trying to establish a database connection to build a drill through report in webanalysis from oracle datawarehouse.the integration tool which we are using to get data from oracle datawarehouse to hyperion is odi.My question are
1) Can drill through reports be built using odi like eis from an aso cube?if yes whats the procedure?
2) is there any alternate ways to bring transaction level or relational data for reporting in webanalysis?
regards,
praveen.
Edited by: user13070887 on Oct 11, 2010 3:48 PM

Hi Glenn,
We tried optimizing the drill through SQL query but actually when we run the directly in TOAD it takes *23 secs* but when we do drill through on the same intersection
it took more than 25 mins. Following is our query structure :
(SELECT *
FROM "Table A" cp_594
INNER JOIN "Table B" cp_595 ON (cp_594.key = cp_595.key)
WHERE (Upper(cp_595.*"Dim1"*) in (select Upper(CHILD) from (SELECT * FROM DIM_TABLE_1 where CUBE = 'ALL') WHERE CONNECT_BY_ISLEAF = 1 START WITH PARENT = $$Dim1$$ CONNECT BY PRIOR CHILD = PARENT UNION ALL select Upper(CHILD) from DIM_TABLE_1 where CUBE = 'ALL' AND REPLACE('GL_'||CHILD, 'GL_IC_', 'IC_') = $$Dim1$$))
And ----same for 5 more dimensions
Can you suggest some improvement ? Please advice.
Thanks
