Usage Reporting in SharePoint 2013

To get usage reporting of the sites in SharePoint 2013,do we need to enable search?
I am looking for basic reporting like no of hits and no of users monthly and weekly. can we get this with out search.
Please help me.
Thanks, Ram Ch

You need search and you can get daily and monthly overviews (see
http://www.collabshow.com/2013/05/23/sharepoint-2013-analytics-a-big-step-backward/) but truthfully, SharePoint 2013 analytics are not that useful. There are lots of SharePoint analytics and web analytics tools out there that can help you to create the
required reports and my advice is to investigate one that suits your needs best.

Usage Report in SharePoint 2013

Hello everyone,
I want to get usage of my SharePoint site. What I've learnt is that in SharePoint 2013, analysis of the data has been completely redesigned and is now a component Search Service Application. Just for getting the number of hits on my website I don't want
to configure the entire Search Service Application. Is there any alternative way from where I can get the information. By reading any Database tables or anything... ?

Jatin,To get the reports of the Usage in OOB we need to configure the webanalytics in sharepoint.The component is part of search service.

What are the best practices for audit report for SharePoint 2013 farm ?

Hello,
I am looking for the best practices for audit reporting in SharePoint 2013 farm.Can anyone please provide me checklist/tools/guidelines on same ?
your help will be much appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,

This is quite open ended question. A sharepoint farm should be well maintained as per :
1. Microsoft's recommendations on : Topology, Hardware and Software requirements, Operational procedures and most important Capacity guidelines:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff758645(v=office.15).aspx
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262787(v=office.15).aspx
2. Organisation's IT policies and procedures : Farm Configuration, Workload and monitoring
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff758658(v=office.15).aspx
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee748651(v=office.15).aspx
3. Industry best practices
I would suggest to start thinking over these lines and create a plan for your Sharepoint farm.
You can then create powershell scripts to run these reports at certain frequency to find the changes, any deviation from the standard and health of the entire farm.
Hope this helps!!

Power view reports in sharepoint 2013 :

How can i add alert and subscription for the power view report in sharepoint 2013 ?.
and please let me know the difference beetween the performance point service and power view report.
Please response fast.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to add alert and subscription for the power view report in sharepoint 2013.
You need to Additional Configuration to provision for subscriptions and alerts when you install Reporting Services SharePoint Mode for SharePoint 2013.
The Reporting Services subscription and data alert features may require the configuration of SQL Server Agent permissions. For more information, see
Provision Subscriptions and Alerts for SSRS Service Applications
PerformancePoint Services is a SharePoint Server 2013 service application. It enables users to create business intelligence (BI) dashboards that provide insight into an organization's performance. You can create custom reports, filters, tabular data sources,
and scorecard transforms to extend the native functionality of PerformancePoint Services.
Power View in SharePoint is browser-based Silverlight application, a feature of the SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 1 (SP 1) Reporting Services Add-in for Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 and 2013. Creating, opening, and saving Power View reports (RDLX files)
all take place in SharePoint Server 2010 and 2013.

also.Kindly help me by providing step by step method.
Thanks,

If you don't just want to upgrade your database, simply open the report project (which should be on your local file system) and edit the report properties, changing the Report Server URLs appropriately to the new SharePoint server URLs.

SQL Server Reporting Services & SharePoint 2013

Hi there,
We are developing a web application in sharepoint 2013 in which we are using authentication mode="Windows”. We have used a custom web part containing report viewer control for showing charts and reports, that we have
developed using SSRS ( *.rdl files) and have all the .rdl files within Sharepoint Document Library.
To start with, we were getting the error “Report Server has encountered a SharePoint error. (rsSharePointError) The user does not exist or is not unique.” To fix this, we changed <identity impersonate="false" /> from <identity
impersonate="true" /> at web.config level which did the trick.
However, we are now facing another issue wherein tabular reports are renedered ok in SharePoint through report viewer custom web part but chart based reports are not rendered. The chart image is not displayed.
Can somebody please help with a resolution?
The code snippet for rendering the report is given below for reference purposes
Thanks in advance
Monica

            reportViewerControl.ServerReport.ReportServerUrl =newUri("http://c4968397007/_vti_bin/ReportServer");

            rvControl.ServerReport.ReportServerCredentials = irsc;
            rvControl.ServerReport.Refresh();

Hi Monica,
In your case, please check whether your report is render correctly on your report server. If so, I would suggest you to check the version of your Internet Explorer and try to use compatibility view as well.
Another suggestion, please put the chart into a rectangle. Alternatively, can you please install the Microsoft Report Viewer 2010 try to resolve the issue? You can download the Report Viewer 2010 package from the following website:

I know that reports will not have that same error when you step into the central admin but I dont have control of the iis or central admin, any feedback would be great thanks.

ok Update since I had a local server I ended up using my server for the reports since they are linked inside access it dint bother the program I had built only, trouble is now I have two separate access databases not sure if I can clone that information
from the cloud and double it as a back up server on the local edition. otherwise the reports will be outdated.

Deploying SSRS Reports to SharePoint 2013 Result in Error

We are trying to deploy SSRS reports developed in VS 2012 to SharePoint 2013. Whenever any user deploys the report, they receive the following error.
Error 1
Report Server has encountered a SharePoint error. --->

Has anyone received this error and know of a solution?
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Hi jbud55,
According to your description, my understanding is that there is an error when you deployed SSRS via to SharePoint 2013.
This error displays that there is a column that does not allow duplicate value in the list. So, please check the list columns.
In addition, as this issue related to SSRS, you can also create a new thread on SQL Reporting Serivces forum, more experts will assist you with SSRS.

No choice we have to migrate to SQL Server 2012. The SQL Server 2012 SP1 version of the add-in and report server, add support for SharePoint Server 2013
QL Server 2008 R2 is server + Cal or Processor bases
Standard = $7,499 to $29,996
Enterprise = $28,749 to $229,992.
SQL Server 2012 User Server + Cal or Core-Based
Standard = $7,171 to $28,688
Enterprise = $13,748 to $137,480
SQL Server 2012 doesn’t cost more than SQL Server 2008 R2 but we have to admit that it contains a high number of significant new features. For the same price we can have a lot of more features in SQL and SharePoint! So if you want to use BI for SharePoint

Hi Techys,
We have one SharePoinr 2013 team site, The total number of users for the site is 3200 members. Now my customer requirement is, they requested a report for people and groups and its permissions along with member names by group wise.

Kindly help me to getdown from the customer concern.

I would suggest a tool like Metalogix ControlPoint. It can quickly produce nice looking reports for this type of information.

Weekly status report in SharePoint 2013

Hi
guys.
I
recently found a link that showed how to create a weekly status report in SharePoint 2010 using wikis: http://blogs.c5insight.com/Home/tabid/40/entryid/200/Creating-a-Weekly-Team-Status-Report-in-SharePoint-2010-Using-Wikis.aspx
I
am new to sharepoint and currently I am using sharepoint 2013.
I
created a wiki page library and the library contains wiki pages for every team member so
that each member can enter their own status information in it.
Now I would like to create a form inside the wiki page in which users
can submit their status reports on a weekly basis and then submit that.
The submitted information must be stored in a way (may be a document)
so that it can be reviewed by senior management. Also, I need a way to archive past
weekly status reports.
Can
someone guide me on this?
Thanks,
Ankit

You need to create a custom list with appropriate fields. Set up security so people can only see the items they have created. You can create a workflow in SharePoint Designer that alerts the appropriate people who need to approve it. Then, you can
edit a Wiki page and drop the list's web part on to the page.

How to create a SSRS report with SharePoint 2013 team site's calendar?

Hi I have sp13 and SQL Data Rool (that brings up VS Shell 2010).
I need to build a report where the top part is to have a SP Team site's calendar for up coming week. The 2nd half would be a table with data from that same site. This report would then need to be embedded in a email that automatically sent to several
users on weekly basis.
I have the table data report created form the SP list. How can I get the calendar(display as a calendar that I see in the team site) on to the top part of this report?
Thank you.

Please follow this article to write SSRS reports with data source as SharePoint list/calendars etc. All document libraries, list and calendars are derived from base list class so you can use any of this type as a data source
http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2068/using-a-sharepoint-list-as-a-data-source-in-sql-server-reporting-services-2008-r2/
Once your SSRS report is developed, you have multiple ways to show it in SharePoint
- upload to SSRS server and show in sharepoint in a page viewer web part or simply open it as a link in new window
- configure SharePoint environment with integration to SSRS and upload report to SharePoint library. Display report in a web part page using SSRS web part.

What are Reporting Services SharePoint 2013 licensing requirements?

Hi All
I have a SharePoint Enterprise 2013 farm of 2 WFE, 2 APP servers. And an 2012 SQL Enterprise server.
I need Reporting services to be on the farm.
I read all the SharePoint Farm servers running SSRS must have an SQL license, which seems excessive. I assume it stands as "Additional Software" from the Product Use Document in SQL. As long as the SQL server is licensed?
What are the licensing options, keeping in mind that there is an SSRS Add-on (which I believe is freely available), and an SSRS instance?
Cheers

SSRS instances require a SQL Enterprise or BI license, depending on how you want to license it. This license is separate from the SQL Database Engine if not running on the same server.
