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.

  • Reporting Services/Sharepoint 2013 dynamic Subscriptions.

    I am looking for a better solution to this problem.  What I have is about 200 reports and growing that are emailed on some schedule (most once a day as soon as possible). 
    This would mean about 200 sql jobs on the RS box, because each subscription create a sql job.  
    I am working on a data driven subscription that would create a schedule to run after the DW has finished processing. 
    I am noticing I am creating a lot of parameters.  I am also noticing that I will be creating some type of log table.  
    Reason is that I need to exec the jobs to run every say 5 min. 
    These jobs are looking at the DW log table to show its done and another log table to tell if they have ran or not for the day. 
    Thus the actual report will only email one time a day.  
    (not sure if someone has a better solution for this).    The solution at this point is create 1 new table to hold parameters that I will use for the subscriptions (for section to define a query to Retrieve Subscriber
    data).   The I will need a log table that I would populate once the report is actually sent.  
    Thus the real problem I have is that with 200 plus reports all trying to run at the same time. 
    In addition to AS trying to process and users all trying to run stuff. 
    To help balance this load I would rather have 1 or 2 jobs running on say the reporting services box or even the EDW box that just generates reports.  
    This way it runs the reports in a more serial manor.  
    I want to get this report from reporting services still.  
    What I am really looking for is how to dynamically exec all the pieces needed. 
    In other words build a table to hold all 200 reports and the metadata needed from them like format, to, cc, ect… 
    Then just create one job on RS that will exec code to loop through each report one at a time and create them. 
    I can have n number of job by just creating a grouping as well.
    Ken Craig

      The reports run 1x a day so taking the time to cashe them in SSAS or SQL (most come from sql) and then run them again in SSRS has just added load with no value.   Why hammer anything. 
    I have been digging more but still looking.  What I have found is that a job just loads a records into a table called AddEvent.  Something that picks up a record from that and runs it.  From what I can tell it uses the @eventdata to get the
    information out of the Subscriptions and Catalog table. 
    Not sure if I am on the right path but still thinking I need to take the 200 plus reports and load them into a table.  This would be all parameters and all subscription info.  Then have maybe just a couple jobs.  Example one job runs 175 reports
    and other runs 25.  I can group them how I like or add more jobs as I need to.  Including creating an order for them.  This way one job will run serial.  Thus allowing me to control the load on the SQL box and SSAS box.  Instead of
    having 200 queries all slamming sql server and/or SSAS at the same time.

  • 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
    privatevoid
    BindReport()
                string reportFullPath
    = "http://c4968397007/ReportLibrary/Reports/"
    + ReportPath;
                litReportHeading.Text = ReportPath;

    serverreport = reportViewerControl.ServerReport;
    IReportServerCredentials irsc =newReportViewerCredentials("username","password","domainName");
                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:

  • 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,
    Dipti Chhatrapati

    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!!

  • Difference between Reporting Services Sharepoint Mode and Reporting Services Add In for Sharepoint 2013

    Hi, We are building company site with Sharepoint 2013 Enterprise Edition and were wondering what is the difference between Reporting Services Sharepoint Mode and Reporting Services Add In for Sharepoint 2013? What are the roles/purposes of each one? What
    happens if only Reporting Services Sharepoint Mode  installed or vise versa.
    Thank you in advance

    Reporting Services in SharePoint mode is a service for displaying, managing, and creating SSRS reports within SharePoint. The addin is a pre-req for SharePoint that is used to display reports and is required for Reporting Services in Native or SharePoint
    mode, but does not by itself do anything.

  • SQL Server Reporting Services SharePoint Integrated mode - Power View is not supported

    Hi there,
    My environment is the following:
    SharePoint Server 2013
    SQL Server 2012 SP1 Enterprise edition
    I am getting the following message when trying to open BISM item with PowerView icon:
    "The feature: "Power View" is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services."
    My problem is that the first time I installed SQL Server Reporting Services SharePoint integrated, I used the SQL Server 2012 Standard edition ISO. But then I learned that Power View is only available with Enterprise and BI editions. So I uninstalled Reporting
    Services Add-in from Control Panel, Reporting Services from the installation media and deleted the three Reporting DBs in the SharePoint DB server.
    Then I used SQL Server 2012 SP1 Enterprise media to install again Reporting Services but not sure why I am still getting the message:
    "The feature: "Power View" is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services."
    Anyone can advice me what could be the problem? Maybe I have not complete deleted  the previous SQL Server Reporting Service Share Point integrated mode from the previous installation? What would be the proper way to uninstall Reporting Services?
    Any help will be welcome.
    Thanks and best regards,
    Joss

    Hi  Joss,
    I am in the same situation, 
    SQL Server was installed in the standard mode because of that the powerview option is not working. 
    I have changed teh edition using maintenance --> upgrade edition. the sql server components like DB engine, SSAS and integration services are now showing in enterprise edition. The reporting services are installed from the application end still showing
    as the reporting services are standard.
    we reinstalled the reporting services but still persists the issue.
    suggest me is there any work around to fix the issue other than reinstalled the whole SQL Server.
    Thanks

  • Missing shared feature Reporting Services Sharepoint

    We have all 64bit servers with Windows Server 2012 Standard Evaluation
    In our SP Farm we decided to have 1 WFE Server, 1 App Server & 1 Sql Server
    In Sql Server we installed "en_sql_server_2012_enterprise_edition_with_service_pack_2_x86_dvd"
    With that we got the following version installed
    Now when we are trying to install SSRS on our App Server we could not see the following Shared Features
    - Reporting Services Sharepoint
    - Reporting Services Add-in for Sharepoint products
    Please suggest me what am i missing or where i was wrong?
    Thanks,
    Naveen.

    Hi Naveen,
    From the image in your post, it seems that there may be something wrong with your setup file of SQL server 2012.
    Please make sure that you are installing SQL server with the intact setup file.
    And the installation of SQL will also be affected by the viruses in your system.
    So please make sure that there is no viruses in your App server.
    As this issue is regarding to SQL server installation, I recommend you to post the question in SQL forum:
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/Lync/en-US/home?category=sqlserver.
    More experts will assist you, then you will get more information relation to SQL Server.
    Best regards.

  • 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.

  • What is the windows server 2013 license version than I need to install workflow manager 1.0

    what is the windows server 2013 license version than I need to install workflow manager 1.0?
    enterprise or standard? can I install it on datacenter?
    please provide me with the reference.
    thanks

    Workflow Manager will work with either SharePoint Enterprise or Standard.  It doesn't work well with Foundations since it depends on User Profiles to pass user identity to the workflow.  And yes you can install it on Windows Server datacenter edition.
     Here are the supported platforms for installation
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj193487(v=azure.10).aspx
    This article talks about integration with SharePoint and states that Foundation is not supported, but it doesn't differentiate between the Server editions, so any edition will do.

  • Missing shared feature Reporting Services Sharepoint and Reporting Services Add-in for Sharepoint products

    Hi, when I try to install SQL Server 2012 SP1 (ISO from Microsoft Download website) on a Windows Server 2012 and try to select the shared feature options: 
    - Reporting Services Sharepoint
    - Reporting Services Add-in for Sharepoint products
    They are both missing from the list.
    How do I solve this? Help!

    Hello,
    Did you download the SQL Server 2012 Express with Advanced Services edition from the Microsoft website? If so, this edition did not support SharePoint Integration mode.
    Just as Alberto post above, Business intelligence features are not all available in all editions of SQL Server 2012. You can refer to the following link about support features in Editions of SQL Server 2012:

  • Reporting Services – SharePoint missing

    Hello,
    I am trying to  add Reporting Services – SharePoint to my computer sql server installation.
    I am currently using Sql Server 2012 Enterprise:
    Microsoft SQL Server 2012 - 11.0.2100.60 (Intel X86)
        Feb 10 2012 19:13:17
        Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation

    Unfortunately in Shared features I don't have the Reporting Services items mentioned in the microsoft article I am following.
    Could it be because I don't have Sharepoint installed on my computer?
    Or maybe, because my computer is 32 bit?
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    Hello,
    Based on your description, you install SQL Server 32 bit version. However, Reporting Services add-in for SharePoint  is 64-bit only. You should try to install SQL Server 64 bit version.

    Hi,
    As far as my view there is no  such dependancy as our customers are running  in same Environemnt (R/3 4.7 EE and BI 7.0) .
    Are you facing any problem durng extraction or its just a proactive approarch .
    I hope extraction will work with your current landscape.

    Is Share point server 2013 and Share pointer Designer 2013 available in 32bit version? If not, then how to use it in 32 bit machine by using any VMs?
    Thanks
    Senthil

    SharePoint Server 2013:
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-sharepoint-collaboration-software-FX103479517.aspx
    SharePoint Designer 2013:
    Designer is used to develop SharePoint pages using HTML/CSS/JS as well as SharePoint Designer Workflows
    Yammer: 
    https://about.yammer.com/
    Windows Server is Windows, but the Server OS. SharePoint runs on top of supported Windows Servers editions (see http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262485.aspx).
    SharePoint Server is 64-bit only (trial:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/hh973397.aspx), although Designer does have a 32-bit edition (full product:
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35491).
    You will need the capability to run 64bit VMs. Minimum recommended all-in-one VM for SharePoint is to allocate 24GB of RAM, but you can get away with as little as 12GB (I wouldn't go below that). Because of this, it generally rules out 32bit OSes as a virtual
    machine host.
