View Report Builder 3.0 in SSDT

Hello,
I new to SQL Server environment,  created a file in Report Builder 3.0, saved as aTest.rdl, and successfully ran it.   When tried opening it in SSDT, Visual Studio 2010 to edit it, I an XML format aTest.XML.  Is there a way to open a file
that was previously generated by Report Builder 3.0 in SSDT?
Thank you,
SaKa

Hi Saka123,
According to your description, you have issue when opening a RDL file in SQL Server Data Tool. Right?
In Reporting Services,when you open a report in Report Designer in SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT), the report definition is upgraded to the currently supported RDL schema. So mostly, it not the issue of RDL schema. In this scenario, I think you just view the
code of RDL file in SSDT(XML format), you can right click the report and select the design view.

Find the Report Definition Schema Version (SSRS)
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

  • Report Builder Wizard and Parameter Creation with values from other data source e.g. data set or views for non-IT users or Business Analysts

    Hi,
    "Report Builder is a report authoring environment for business users who prefer to work in the Microsoft Office environment.
    You work with one report at a time. You can modify a published report directly from a report server. You can quickly build a report by adding items from the Report Part Gallery provided by report designers from your organization." - As mentioned
    on TechNet. 
    I wonder how a non-technical business analyst can use Report Builder 3 to create ad-hoc reports/analysis with list of parameters based on other data sets.
    Do they need to learn TSQL or how to add and link parameter in Report Builder? then How they can add parameter into a report. Not sure what i am missing from whole idea behind Report builder then?
    I have SQL Server 2012 STD and Report Builder 3.0  and want to train non-technical users to create reports as per their need without asking to IT department.
    Everything seems simple and working except parameters with list of values e.g. Sales year List, Sales Month List, Gender etc. etc.
    So how they can configure parameters based on Other data sets?
    Workaround in my mind is to create a report with most of columns and add most frequent parameters based on other data sets and then non-technical user modify that report according to their needs but that way its still restricting users to
    a set of defined reports?
    I want functionality like "Excel Power view parameters" into report builder which is driven from source data and which is only available Excel 2013 onward which most of people don't have yet.
    So how to use Report Builder. Any other thoughts or workaround or guide me the purpose of Report Builder, please let me know. 
    Many thanks and Kind Regards,

    Hi Asam,
    If we want to create a parameter depend on another dataset, we can additional create or add the dataset, embedded or shared, that has a query that contains query variables. Then use the option that “Get values from a
    query” to get available values. For more details, please see:http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd283107.aspx

  • Views on CF Report Builder and Crystal Report

    Dear all,
    I would like to get your opinions on CF Report Builder and
    Crystal Report.
    As we all know, CF Report Builder is a new reporting tool.
    But I find it very difficult to design a complex report maybe due
    to limitation in its functionalities. Sometimes the tool shutdowns
    by itself without any warning and reason. But the output is nicely
    presented on a flash paper / pdf and it can be run on non-MS
    platforms.
    On the other hand, Crystal Report is a more matured product
    but runs only on MS platform. It is very easy to use and very
    powerful. I have been using it for almost 10 years. But the output
    is not nicely presented on the web browser unless if we purchase
    Crystal Report Enterprise to generate the report which is very
    costly.
    Can you all share your views? I need to make decision which
    tool(s) to use. Really appreciate it.
    Cheers,
    Keiko

    Hi Keiko,
    Yes, CF Report builder is new and initially there was few
    issues with this. But I guess now it's good after hotfixes.
    Well, I am using CF Report Builder. It's good for me. You can
    also design and develop complex reports, that depends upon the
    query you are writing. You can also add subreports to your main
    reports.
    Mainly CF Report is platform independent and you can also
    generate reports in PDF, EXCEL and FlashPaper.
    Crystal Report is no doubt is very good, and it's there for
    long years. I agree you can create complex reports with this, but
    you also can do the same in CF also. You are using this for last 10
    years, so I guess you should try something new and that is CF
    Report Builder and you can judge then.
    I am sure you will have fun with CF.
    Thanks

  • Export to Excel Error in SQL Server 2014 Report Builder/Viewer

    Hi,
    I am using the 2014 version of ReportViewer in a WinForm to display an RDL report.
    The report was originally created in Report Builder 2.0 (SQL 2008 R2), but has since been edited in Report Builder 3.0 (SQL 2014).
    The report loads and displays OK, and even exports to Word and PDF. But when exporting to Excel and then opening the Excel document, the following error occurs:
    "We found a problem with some content in <filename>. Do you want us to try and recover as much as we can? If you trust the source of this workbook, click Yes."
    If you click Yes, then a second message appears:
    "Removed Part: /xl/styles.xml part.  (Styles)
    Repaired Records: Cell information from /xl/worksheets/sheet1.xml part"
    The Excel document then opens, and the data is there, but there is no formatting (no border columns, colours, bolds etc.)
    The three interesting things are:
    - When exported from SQL 2008 R2 Report Builder 3.0, which exports to .xsl instead of .xslx, it works
    - A brand new report created in 2014 Report Builder 3.0 exports to .xslx great
    - In Report Builder 2014, I stripped everything back and removed all rows and columns so the original table in the report only has one empty row and column it the export still errors - it is only by removing the original table and creating a brand new table
    that export works OK
    It appears to be a problem with the tablix, but ideally we don't want to have to recreate our reports from scratch to fix this issue.
    Has anyone come across an issue like this before, and know of any potential resolutions to it?
    Thank you.

    Hello,
    Based on your description, you render a report originally created in Report Builder 2.0 (SQL 2008 R2) and export the report to excel with format of Excel 2007-2010.
    Edit the report in Report Builder will not upgrader the report. In that case the report still with SSRS 2008 R2 RDL schema. Please try to upgrade the report by open the report in Report Designer in SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) and then try again.
    If you don’t want to upgrade the report, please try to export the report
    with Excel 2003 rendering extension and check if the issue persists.
    The SQL Server 2014 and SQL Server 2012 Reporting Services Excel rendering extension renders a report to the native format of Microsoft Excel 2007-2010 with .xlsx as file extension. Only the Excel rendering extension is available by default.
    You must update the Reporting Services configuration files to make the Excel 2003 rendering extension available.
    For example, changing the value of Visible to
    true in the following line in the RSReportServer.config:
    <Extension Name="EXCEL" Type="Microsoft.ReportingServices.Rendering.ExcelRenderer.ExcelRenderer,Microsoft.ReportingServices.ExcelRendering"
    Visible="true"/>

  • Migrate VS SSDT Reporting Project to SQL Server Report Builder?

    In the past, I have developed SSRS reports using Visual Studio (BIDS/SSDT). Unfortunately, a company server migration has made it impossible for me to deploy my reporting projects using that devlopment environment, so it appears I have to resort to Report
    Builder now.
    I see that the SQL Server Reporting Services web app has an "Upload File" menu item.  However, it's not clear to me how these would then be translated into a Report Builder project.  I've heard that the SSRS project-building
    capabilities of Visual Studio go considerably beynd those of the Report Builder in SQL Server.
    What I'd like to know is: Can I develop a Reporting Services project in Visual Studio and then migrate it to Report Builder via upload? If so, what are the steps to accomplish this, and what, if any, are the drawbacks?
    - Mark Z.

    Hi Mark Zudeck,
    As per my understanding, you developed SSRS reports with report designer, now you could not deploy the reports to report manager, and you want to open the projects with report builder. If that is the case, please refer to the following steps:
    On the Start menu, click All Programs, and then click Microsoft SQL Server Report Builder.
    To create a new report, click the SQL Server icon in the upper left-hand corner of Report Builder, and then click New.
    To open an existing report stored on your local machine or a report server, click the SQL Server icon in the upper left-hand corner, and then click Open.
    If you don’t see the report server in the list of existing servers, close the Open Report dialog box and then click Connect at the bottom of Report Builder to connect to the server.
    For detail information about Report Builder, please refer to the following document:

  • Pdf file view in report builder 10g

    I store pdf file in database 10g using webutil_doc form ,now I need to view this file in report builder 10g is it possible

    By all means feel free to post your question as often as you like!
    In webforms DDE runs on the middle tier; it might do what you want against your local OC4J now, but it surely won't open a thing when you run it against an application server.
    Maybe you should enlighten us with your requirement, maybe there is a better solution for your problem.

  • SSRS 2012 - Multiple values for filtering (shown while editing in Report Builder) disappear in Report Manager view

    Hi,
    I have a multiple value parameter, with four specified default values (integers). When opening my report in Edit mode in the Report
    Builder, and then pressing "run", I can see the default parameters in the upper section on the screen, and they are acting fine on the report. However, when opening the report from the Report
    Manager (by double clicking it from there), the default values have disappeared and I have to fill them in manually. However, the values are not 100% forgotten, because when opening the "manage" section using the drop down
    menu in the Report Manager, my default values are there, shown in the list.
    Did I do something wrong? Is this a bug? What can I do to solve this?
    Nb.:
    I'm using SSRS 2012
    Dataset created by the query "select parameterID from table group by parameterID"
    The full set of parameters are collected by using the above dataset as input for "get values from a query" in "available values"
    The default values are set by using the option "specify values" in "default values"
    Hope one of you can help me out here!
    Sietske
    Nb.: For the time being I'm now using a hard coded workaround by adding "where parameterID ='4' or parameterID = '15'" to my select query.  

    Hi Sietske,
    According to your description, there are several suggestions for your reference:
    Based on the workaround query that “where parameterID ='4' or parameterID = '15'”, it seems that the parameterID and parameter is a string type field. So please make sure the default value of the parameter is Text data type, like below:
    When you go to the Parameters tab after clicking the Manage option over the drop-down list, please enable ‘Has Default’ checkbox, and make sure the values in the ‘Default Value’ drop-down list are correct, then click Apply option.
    If the report works well when you open the report in Report Builder, please click Save or (Ctrl+S) button to save the report to report server.
    If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.

  • Report Builder 404 error

    I have SharePoint 2013 and SQL 2012 reporting services so SSRS is running as a service application.  I'm unable to edit reports in report builder and when I view a report all the icons are missing (see attached screenshot). 

    Just an update.  I resolved my issue.  The problem appeared to that when creating the Data Source, I had been adding the URL of the actual list (eg. http://servername/sitename/listname) as the connection string where in fact I should have just
    added the server name and site - eg. http://servername/sitename.
    Hopefully this may help somebody else :-)

  • Report Builder Question: Printing PO's from E-Business Suite - POXPRPOL

    I'm hoping there's someone who has the time to help me: We are using Report Builder 9, Oracle 9i, and E-Business Suite 11.5.10.
    I am a new developer using Oracle, and need to make some changes to the seeded (default) POXPRPOL (Purchase Order Print - Landscape) report, using Report Builder.
    I have two problems:
    1. When I print PO Releases from E-Business Suite, and specify I want releases 1 through 2, I get those fine, but the first page is my "Purchase Agreement". The question is: Is there any way (programatically or otherwise) to say "When the "Release" fields are filled out, don't include the Purchase Agreement?
    2. Somehow, after making a few changes to the POXPRPOL report, my quantity has disappeared. Is there any suggestions on how this could happen? I look at the query where they are using "POL.QUANTITY_TO_PRINT" for the working and the non-working reports, and they look identical.
    I'm hoping DESPERATELY that someone can help me - I'm really in a bind...
    Thanks!
    Steve

    Srini,
    Thanks so much for your reply!!!
    1. Ok, but how do I hide a whole page? I noticed the conditional formatting, but I want to "not print" a whole page when this page is a "Purchase Agreement".
    2. I've checked the source - it's coming from POL.QUANTITY_TO_PRINT - POL is a view that is unpopulated. I assume it's populated at run-time. So now I am trying to track down where it's populated, but can't find that in report builder. The quantity is being taken into account, because I put a total at the bottom of the page, and that number matches price * pol.quantity_to_print. Very strange...
    Finally, here's another question, if you don't mind:
    3. When I print a purchase order that is set up as a blanket, as I mentioned before, I get my "Purchase Agreement" first, and then one (or more) pages per release. But the "Page Number" on each is "1" because each is a one-page PO. But my "total pages" is "3", so each page reads "Page 1 of 3". Any idea if there's a way around that?
    Thanks again! Hoping you have some more insight! :)
    Cheers!

    Hi Pmbt,
    From your description, you cannot start Report Builder using Google Chrome, right? In Reporting Services, you use a Web browser to view reports and run Report Manager. Not all report functionality is supported by all browsers. Google Chrome is not a supported
    browser for SSRS. So we recommend you to start Report Builder using IE. For the detail information about it, please see:

  • Report Builder Question - OA AR Aging - and a general question

    I'm sure this is the wrong forum for this question, but I thought there might be someone here who might be using Oracle Applications and Report Builder who'd be kind enough to help me out.
    We've recently implemented Oracle Applications 11.5.10 and I have to use report builder to change the Accounts Receiveable Aging (7 bucket) to a 5 bucket report. I've already made some changes to the seeded "ARXAGMW.rdf" report, but I'm not a big Oracle Reports guy. I've stumbled through making some changes in various other reports. But this one is just plain nasty! :)
    I was thinking that I could simply add buckets 6 & 7 to bucket 5, then just hide or delete the 6 & 7 buckets. But I'm not sure where to even start. Any help with this would GUARANTEE a Christmas or other holiday card this year! :)
    I really want to keep this simple as possible, so any help would be very....helpful. :)
    Oh, my general question is: Are there any resouces/books for Oracle Reports (Report Builder)? I feel so lost trying to modify existing reports, let alone creating new ones.
    Thanks again!

    Hi Steve,
    I am working on the 7-bucket aging report and i want to add a new field in data model.
    As the query is build dynamically, i have modified the function BUILD_CUSTOMER_SELECT to meet my requirements.
    But the problem is that in the data model, the field is not present in my Grouping. and if I try to add the field in the Data Model query (Q_ Customer) section,
    i get the following error: ORA-01789: query block has incorrect number of result columns.
    The query is as shown below:
    select rpad('a',50,'-') short_cust_name,
    0 cust_id,
    rpad('a',30,'-') cust_no,
    rpad('a',500,'-') sort_field1,
    rpad('a',40,'-') sort_field2,

  • How to change sql server reports parameter direction in report builder 3.0

    Hi All,
    I have created few reports using Report Builder 3.0 with the data source as SharePoint list. i have created a web part page and added the ".rdl"
    file, everything is working as expected. Later, i got a requirement to add a parameter to the report , i did that and when i ran the report in SharePoint page, the parameters shows right side and the parameter ribbon shows the dropdown control on top and "Apply
    button" at the bottom. When i presented this to my manager, he says the parameter ribbon looks bad and suggested to put both the controls together and also instead of displaying at right side vertical, display it horizontal.
    I have below queries
    How can i change the direction of parameter ribbon from vertical to horizontal
    How can i bring the controls together (e.g. dropdown list control and button)
    How can i add buttons on the report in report builder 3.0
    How to get/reflect the data in report without refreshing the page.
    Can someone please guide me, how to achieve the above functionalities..
    MercuryMan

    Unfortunately, where the parameters are located and the button distance away from the parameters are not something you can customize. Here are the options available for customization:
