What is the best way to produce different report types out of the same SSRS Report

So I have a request to produce different report types based on a "Line Of Business" Parameter that is provided. I know that SSRS sometimes struggles with gathering the Metadata based on IF Statements.
What is the best way to provide multiple different report types with different data based on the "Line Of Business" Parameter that is provided? Can I simply do this via the SQL Stored Procedure? And how so that the Metadata is collected correctly?
Just don't know what the generally accepted business principle is on this and how to go about doing it.
Thanks in advance for your review and am hopeful for a reply.

Hi ITBobbyP,
Per my understanding that you have create an parameter (Line Of Businiess) to get diffetent types of report, I would like to confirm with you want do you mean about the different report types?
Is that mean you have table and one column named Report type, you want to filtered on this column? Or the report type you mean is like Parameterized reports,Linked reports,Snapshot reports,Subreports and so on.
If want you want is through the selection of the parameter to change the report type(Parameterized reports,Linked reports,Snapshot reports,Subreports ..),currently it is impossible to acheive this.
If you still have any problem, please try to provide more details information about your reqirements, the sampe data in the table, the report structure you have designed and so on.
Any problem, please feel free to ask.
Regards,
Vicky Liu

    WORKAROUND FOUND ! Download and install "Awesome Camera" app and take a picture with that app. After 1-2 seconds of standby, it will work. Then you can go back to default Camera app which would work again.Please let me know

  • I am moving from Southern California to Maui, Hawaii and I need to figure out the best way to get my 24 inch iMac across the ocean. Does anyone know the best way to do this?

    I am moving from Southern California to Maui, Hawaii and I need to figure out the best way to get my 24 inch iMac across the ocean. Does anyone know the best way to do this? I have found GearGrip's LCD harness so that I can do carry-on onto the plane...  Or maybe use a Pelican Case to do it as a "checked bag"? Or any other suggestions??! Please help!
    Thanks so much!!

    I don't recommend you send the iMac in a checked bag. Might get damaged.
    Check the airlines website for carry on guidelines.
    Or, if you have the original box that the iMac came in, if you have someone who can pick up the iMac for you, send it ahead Fed Ex and insure the package.
    Just make sure the display is covered to protect it. A blanket perhaps.

  • What's the Best Way to do Different Takes?

    Hello there ...
    I'm slowly making my way around Garageband ... I did a recording the other day of a combo ... electric piano, bass, drums, sax, and a vocalist ...
    It was the first recording I've ever done in my life ... and I am amazed at the results .... it sounds pretty darn good. I'm fortunate that I have good mikes and a presonus preamp ... as I'm sure that helps a lot.
    That said ... there are things I would do differently now ... and I want to ask how I would best do them ...
    For example ... I just tracked one huge file ... then found out I would have to cycle each region and export them to make separate files as tracks on a cd.
    The cycling thing worked great ... except that all the parameter changes I made on a region to make it sound better (depending on the cut) affected the whole recording.
    So I realize I need to make whole new files for every take for when it comes down to mixing ...
    My question is ... what is the best way to do this? Just do a "save as", rename ... and then delete everything that was recorded from the previous take and start fresh?
    Thanks for any advice .....
    I also noticed that when I adjusted the volume of part of a track using the graph points in the expanded track volume panel ... that I couldn't go back and adjust the original main individual track volume in the track input bar window. It became greyed out ... am I missing something there?

    Now, if a particular take sounds good but you want to
    change your effect settings, save as a different
    GarageBand file and delete all the less-great takes.
    This will be your master for that tune. You will
    still have your other file with everything on it, but
    this is the best way to preserve the many and note
    the exception.
    Hi Schneb ...
    That sounds like a very good solution .... that way I would not waste any time during the session doing all those "save as" between takes .... I would just stop recording ... then start again and make a new region.
    It makes a lot of sense to do the "save as" thing later and then just delete everything but the particular region (take) you want to work on ...
    Thanks ...!
    About the volume thing .... so once you fiddle with expanded volume track settings .... you can no longer manipulate the track slider volume?
    If so ... I remember there is some sort of command to restore the track volume to its original is there not? At least that way you can start over ...

  • What's the best way to record different articulations in 1 phrase?

    In my first violins I am using forte legato, pianissimo pizz, forte tremelo and forte marcato in 1 phrase within 4 bars. What now would be the best way to record this? I am using Peter Siedlaczek's Complete Classical Collection. Do I make a seperate track for every effect and record 1 bar on every track? Or do I use the Key Switch for every effect withing 1 track? What is the most easiet way of working and especiallyu, what used not all my processor power? I only have a PowerPc with w GB ram.

    Seems like you've answered your own question as those are the two ways to do what you are trying to do. Using the key-switch will be less CPU intensive than using multiple instances of the plugin.

  • What is the best way to send large, HD video files from the iPad?

    Hello,
    My department is looking to purchase between 50 and 150 new iPads. We hold conferences where participants take short, 3-minute videos of themselves in situations they have been trained for. The idea was that after they have taken the video, they could simply email these videos to themselves, negating the need to hook the device up to a computer, transfer the video over to a flash drive, and ensure that drive gets back to the right person.
    Now that I have the first one, I'm finding any video longer than 45s or so can't be sent via email because it's too large.
    Are you kidding?
    The file I was just able to send was 7.5MB. That's the biggest video I can send from this thing? Why even give us the ability to take HD video if we can't *do* anything with it?
    But, I digress.
    What I'm looking for is the best way to get video off the iPads and into the hands of our participants. Are there apps on the App Store which might convert whatever video we take to an emailable size? I thought about setting everyone up with Apple IDs and having them use iMessage since there is no limit on file size, but of course you must own an Apple device in order to do that, and it still doesn't solve getting it on their computers.
    Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    You could try uploading them to a joint dropbox account that they could then download them from....but how fast it is will depend on the internet connection available.

  • What is the best way to detect peak to peak voltage for the following waveform ?

    I have two channels of waveform train ( ie W1 & W2 ), each of them is of frequency 64KHz.
    Each channel of waveform train consists of sinewaves of 64KHz of fixed amplitude, say 2 V pk to pk, running for 100 cycles, and then rest for 0.15 sec continue with a sinewave of 64KHz of another fixed amplitude, say 1 V pk to pk running for 100 cycles as well, and then rest for 0.15 sec. The above cycle considered as a complete waveform cycle.
    The above complete waveform cycle repeat for 10 cycles and rest for 1.3 sec and repeated itself.
    From the two simulated waveforms (ie W1 & W2), I need to detect and measure the peak to peak voltage of each of the 100 cycles sinewaves.
    What is th
    e best way to achieve that ?

    The waveform is free running as described above, ie sinewave running at approximate 64 KHz for about 100 cylce at fixed amplitude, say 2V ( actual number of cylce unknown, could slightly more or sightly less, depanding on the machine ) then rest for approximately 0.15sec, another sinewave running at approx. 64KHz at fixed amplitude, say 1.5V ( actual number of cylce unknown, could slightly more or sightly less, depanding on the machine ) running for approx 100 cycles continue...then rest for approx. 0.15 sec .....the above waveform repeated itself and free running .....I would like to capture or trigger each of the 100 cycles sinewave (rest time of 0.15 sec between each approx100 cycles of sinewave) to measure the peak to peak voltage and st
    ore them in array for analysis purpose....what is the best way to achieve that as I do not have time reference, I only know that the waveform is running at the pattern described above.
    Thanks for your help !

  • Time Machine is EXTREMELY SLOW. What is the best way to make a complete, reliable copy of the hard drive before i erase the disk?

    I was given an older iMac (from 2010) on the condition i first create a complete, reliable copy of everything on her hard drive and then wipe it clean.  Is Time Machine the best way to do this so that she can use this data when she needs it?  I started Time Machine but it is so slow, at this rate it will take at least 10 days to do the first backup.  I'm already on the 3rd day now at about 2.5 GB per day.  Is there a better way that is reliable?  perhaps some kind of disc copy?

  • The best way to get 5.1 sound out of Mac Pro

    Hello. I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this, but could someone recommend me the best way to get 5.1 sound of a Mac Pro. Since I don't require hi-fi -level sound, just simple directional audio for gaming and such, I wouldn't like to pour a lot of money to this. As I see it, I'd need an external sound card, internal PCI-E soundcard or speakers that have an optical input. I would like for the cost to be in two digits, euro or dollar.
    Any suggestions about hardware?

    Once again, the issue of 5.1 w/Apple comes up.
    Here is the bottom line.
    You will only get 5.1 audio if the following conditions are true:
    - You are using the OPTICAL output on your Mac
    - You are playing a DVD with a 5.1 soundtrack
    That's it. The simple truth is, that even if you have a Z-5500 setup (like I do), you still will not get 5.1 surround in ///any/// applications other then while playing a DVD.
    There is no way to get 5.1 out of a game on a Mac Pro. No matter how much money you throw at it. The support simply is not there. It is not a software issue, it is not a driver issue. It is the game developer's issue (sort of), and it is a //lack of hardware// issue.
    The complex truth, and I will attempt to explain, isn't that simple.
    Your Mac Pro or Macbook only has a single line-out, that supports 2 channels at the maximum. Optical audio will only handle 2 channels as well- it's the same signal (in two channels) on a different medium, basically.
    All PC soundcards that support proper 5.1 (save for a select few) have //multiple// line-out jacks for Front Left/Right, Center/Sub, and Rear Left/Right (3 plugs total for 5.1). Since your Mac/Mac Pro doesn't have this, you can't hook up a 5.1 speaker set and expect true 5.1.
    You do have optical audio, however, this only works in 5.1 when a Dolby Digital signal is piped through the optical cable.
    Dolby Digital works by encoding a 5.1 signal as a data stream, sending it to a receiver, where it is decoded and played back as 5.1 stereo. DVD's have this audio pre-encoded on the disk.
    If you wanted 5.1 output from your games, they'd need to ether have the sound/audio data encoded as Dolby 5.1, or support encoding on the fly to take a 5.1 signal, encode it, and pipe it out the optical audio plug. Xbox360 does this, because they've licensed the technology from Dolby- as have the game developers.
    Unfortunately, none of the developers for Macintosh gaming have yet to include live Dolby 5.1 encoding (I think Doom 3 had a beta patch that did- I could be wrong).
    If the game doesn't support the above feature, then you only get basic 2 channel audio.
    *Do not buy a Fireface 800.*
    This is a professional audio interface (like an external soundcard). While it supports 5.1 output via 6 individual outputs, you need SPEAKERS that have +built in amplifiers+ (called a Studio Monitor). Not just one amplifier- all the speakers have it built in and take a balanced stereo input.
    You're looking at $1300 for the Fireface 800, and another $200 per speaker. This is not cheap, is not meant for gaming, and is not consumer grade equipment. It's pro audio, designed for Logic 8 and similar.
    Even if you did spend the money, trust me, I'd know... I have a 5.1 setup running through an Apogee Ensemble (a $2000 "soundcard"), and I do not get 5.1 support from Quake 4, C&C 3, or any other game. I only get 5.1 surround from my audio production in Logic 8.
    To recap, since this has been asked many times- and I don't want you wasting your money here (just trying to be helpful!)...
    *There is no simple or cost-efficient way to get 5.1 from your Mac, other then while playing a DVD movie.*
    I would highly recommend that you buy a very good pair of 2.1 speakers with a Sub woofer. Maybe even a pair that takes an optical input for audio. If you really want to spend the money to *watch a DVD in surround sound,* then you can... And it'll work wonderfully, but gaming will not give you surround sound at all.
    *Again- There are no games out that support 5.1. Just because you technically support Dolby 5.1, doesn't mean the applications are aware of it and can utilize the 5.1 surround.*
    Edit: I may have neglected to also mention that the Firewave unit will support 5.1 properly through 3 separate plugs (much like a PC soundcard does), however the only game I am aware of that supports this is Unreal Tournament 2003 for Mac (or was it 04?), with an experimental patch for 5.1 via OpenAL. Last I heard, it worked okay, but crashed occasionally.
    Most of the other games out there just don't support 5.1, period (probably due to the lack of hardware on the Mac computers from the factory).

  • Is The Best Way To Update OS to "Zero Out" eMac Hard Drive?

    Ok, so I've got the OEM Apple eMac Tiger installation discs and
    will be updating to Tiger 10.4+ in the next week or so.
    Here's my question: Is it better to "Zero" out the eMac Hard Drive
    (using the Apple installer/utility disc), or better to just proceed
    with the Tiger installation and select for my previous Apple OS 10.2.8
    to be automatically "archived" during the Tiger installation?
    I would assume that the "Zeroing out" process would be the best, even though
    the actual process of "Zeroing" the Hard Drive takes quite a long time.
    Any suggestions on the best way to prepare the Hard Drive for the Tiger
    installation would be appreciated.

  • What is the best way to save different versions of a project?

    I am working on a documentary with hundreds of hours of footage. I've been told that to avoid file corruption, I need to regularly save different version of the project. I've done some research and there appears to be different ways to do this.
    In Lisa Brenneis's FCP book, she suggests using "Save As" to protect one's work (renaming the old copy with a version number, and using the same name for the most updated version). This makes sense to me, since this would avoid FCP creating new capture folders every time I change the name of my project. However, I'm wondering if there is a difference between doing Brenneis' technique or duplicating the project.
    Are there different schools of thoughts on this? Does anyone have a system that works for them that they recommend? I've done research and I can't find anything on this topic, other than issues with backing up (I'm working with several hard drives - but what I'm most concerned about is avoiding file corruption and making sure my media isn't all over the place).
    Thanks for sharing!

    Good topic!
    I use the technique of popping over to Finder and using command-D
    to make a copy every once in a while. Then at the end of the day,
    I'll make a copy of the session to another disk. Whenever I've done
    a lot of work that I never want to lose, I take a copy to another location.
    If a backup is super-important, be sure to test it!
    It only takes a minute to quit FCP, and double-click on the backup.
    When I return to work the next day, after making sure my project opens,
    I delete all the "copy" files, then make a new one and the process repeats.
    When I output the edit for others to work on or approve, I will make
    a special copy of the project with the date encoded in the file name,
    Japanese-style (e.g. MyProject_2009-01-22.fcp and RoughEdit_2009-01-22.mov),
    then I never touch that file. Doing the dates Japanese-style means
    that they will be organized chronologically in Finder.
    Keeping these intermediate projects means that people can refer
    to very specific times on specific versions, and I can find exactly
    what they are talking about.
    As far as media goes, most people do not back up tape,
    because it's such a pain (you need two drives). People tend
    to keep their tapes in a box somewhere. This can work OK
    if you never use Capture Now.
    Since capturing from tape is such a time-consumer,
    and since I don't usually work with tape anyway,
    I focus on good disk backup. Ideally I'll have a disk
    and a backup at home, and a copy of the media files
    at another location.
    Be sure to keep the backups organized and named
    carefully so you can FIND what you are looking for
    if you need to. Adding a little text file in your folder
    explaining stuff is not a bad idea.
    People talk a lot about media failure, and yes all media
    will fail someday, but I use backups mostly because
    of my mistakes, like deleting the wrong file or something
    stupid like that.
    Be sure to back up all the other little files you might be
    using in a project, like Filemaker databases, graphics files,
    important emails, hours logs, etc.
    It's good that you are thinking about this important topic.

  • Whats the best way to produce PDF output for Graphics

    Greetings;
    I posted something earlier which received no replys, so I figure I probably asked the wrong question.
    I have recently migrated an application over from Delphi and I have to admit that I'm not as familiar with using Java and Graphics as I wish I were - I'm learning fast though..
    Anyway I have an bufferedImage object in which I am drawing a few lines, pasting some text, and drawing circles and such. I currently am saving the file as a JPG using the following snippet of code:
        try
          FileOutputStream fos = new FileOutputStream(fileName);
          JPEGImageEncoder encoder = JPEGCodec.createJPEGEncoder(fos);
          encoder.encode(myBImage);
          fos.flush();
          fos.close();
        catch(Exception e)
          System.err.println(e.toString());
        }I've seen a few posts about PDF which all seem related to Text and printing as such - in fact the only post I've seen about converting a JPG to PDF seemed to circumvent the whole graphics object - which isn't a choice (I don't think it is) in my case.
    Can anyone just provide me the best direction to look for this?
    Thanks again;
    Eirik..

    Ouputing PDF manually can be large undertaking, i would recomend you refere to the many open source project of apache to use a pre-built method of output.
    jakarta.apache.org
    ( there are two projects that accomplish what you are trying to do .. i just cant remember their names off the top of my head. )

  • What's the best way to create and edit a PDF where the source document is also a PDF?

    Hi,
    To be specific, we are in the process of upgrading our A/P processes and we have received a user manual from the company we contracted for the upgrade. I've been tasked with customizing this manual for my company's specific processes (this is with the permission).
    What is the best course of action to accomplish this? I thought I should save a copy of the manual, and then modify each page as necessary. I will be adding and deleting text and graphics. I have never used Acrobat before, but consider myself a quick study.
    Any suggestions wil be greatly appreciated.

    When Acrobat saves to Word 97-2003 format, it actually writes a Rich Text Format file - the binary .DOC format used by Word is a closed standard. The .DOCX format is just XML, and neither export process cares if you have Office installed or not. In theory, OpenOffice can read both types of file; but there does tend to be some minor difference between how OO arranges things and how MS Word does it.
    The critical thing is that if the PDF file has structure tags (i.e. it's accessible), Acrobat can flow the content properly in the exported file and can identify things as headers, quotes, lists, tables, etc. If not, it has to guess what the reading order is based on where things are on the page, and it will often get confused by intricate layouts, spanned columns, etc. There are of course some things (such as Word Art) which don't survive the trip to PDF and back, and will show as an image.
