DO not Email When there's no Data with two datasets
Hi All,I have a report containing two tablixes from two datasets. A standard subscription was initially created on this report but I have noticed recently that it emails out even when the report does not contain any data. How do I stop this? I have read suggestions that this can only be achieved using a data driven subscription but am little bit confused on how to define the query that will drive this data driven subscription based on the fact that the report has two datasets in it. Any help will be appreciated.

SSRS Challenge: Toggle column visibility
Say I have a simple table in my database. it has just four columns:[code="sql"]foo, bar, foe, fum[/code]Say that the data is grouped on foo, and that column fum is a dollar amount I want to sum. Columns bar and foe have a 1x1 correspondence with column foo and are not grouped under foe (no sense in that, given the 1x1 correspondence). Further, say that I don't want to see columns bar and foe in the initial display. that is, when I run the report at first, I see just two columns:[code]foo fumabc $100.00[/code]What I want to do is set up the report so that, when presented with the initial view, I can click on an item in the foo column (e.g. 'abc') and [i]then[/i] see all four columns:[code]foo bar foe fumabc more stuff still more stuff $100.00[/code]In other words, I want columns bar and foe to be hidden in the report until I click on a item under foo, whereupon they would be revealed, then hidden again if I again click on foo. So, in essesnce, foo acts as a toggle for the visibility of columns bar and foe. I can't figure out how do to this. So....can it be done, and if so, how?

Select all parameter does not jump to another ssrs report
Hello,I am using SSRS 2005 I have three parameters 1st is "Month" 2nd is "Year" and the 3rd is "CompanyID". CompanyID has 5 different companies: NNA, NTB, NGB, NBA, NSS when I run the report the report comes out fine by company or when I press the Select All. Within the detail field I can click to different report (jump to report) it works fine providing I select one company I get the correct amount, but when I Select All companies I am only getting one company, which is not giving me the total amount from all companies. The detail report has the same three parameters. I just not getting the CompanyID parameters correct when I click on Select All. Can someone tell me what can I do to get the detail report having all the CompanyID and I want to print out all the companies on the report. I just getting one company when I click on the Select All. I would really appreciate someone helping me here. Thank you in advance.

Problem while trying to sum up a column
I have created a report (for sales Order as well as Purchase Order) which contain a lot of fields from many different tables. Every field has an expression in order to get the correct values in front of sales/purchase order e.g:iif(isNothing(Fields!VendorInvoiceAmount.Value), Fields!CustomerInvoiceAmount.Value, Fields!VendorInvoiceAmount.Value)The problem is if a vendor/customer have 2 different Invoices and different types of tax are applied on them.I have the following table (just 3-4 fields to make you understand).[b]SourceInvoiceNo - InvoiceAmount - SalesTaxAmount - Total[/b]INV-000001 ----- - ----- 1000 ----- - ------- 200 ------ - -------- 1200INV-000002 ----- - ----- 2000 ----- - ------- 100 ------ - -------- 2300INV-000002 ----- - ----- 2000 ----- - ------- 200 ------ - -------- 2300AP-0001 -------- - ------ 3000 ----- - ------- 100 ------ ---- ----- 3100[b]GRAND TOTAL-------------------------------------------------------8600[/b]Like in INV-000002 on the same invoice amount 2 different type of taxes are applied.the total should be 2000+100+200 = 2300. but here grand total is creating the problem.i tried to solve this but putting this expression in Total.Iif(Fields!SourceInvoiceNo.value = Previous(Fields!SourceInvoiceNo.value), 0 , iif(isNothing(Fields!VendorInvoiceAmount.Value), (Fields!CustomerInvoiceAmount.Value + Fields!SourceRegulateAmount), (Fields!VendorInvoiceAmount.Value + Fields!SourceRegulateAmount))Note: Source Regulate Amount is Sales Tax Amount.this gives the following output (which i wanted) but grand total is still the same.[b]SourceInvoiceNo - InvoiceAmount - SalesTaxAmount - Total[/b]INV-000001 ----- - ----- 1000 ----- - ------- 200 ------ - -------- 1200INV-000002 ----- - ----- 2000 ----- - ------- 100 ------ - -------- 2300INV-000002 ----- - ----- 2000 ----- - ------- 200 ------ - -------- 0AP-0001 -------- - ------ 3000 ----- - ------- 100 ------ ---- ----- 3100[b]GRAND TOTAL-------------------------------------------------------8600[/b]Grand total should be 6600.In grand total i have this expression.iif(isNothing(Fields!VendorInvoiceAmount.Value), (Fields!CustomerInvoiceAmount.Value + Fields!SourceRegulateAmount), (Fields!VendorInvoiceAmount.Value + Fields!SourceRegulateAmount)

SSRS 2005 report: Cannot bulk load Operating system error code 5(Access is denied.)
I built a SSRS 2005 report, which calls a stored proc on SQL Server 2005. The proc contains following code: CREATE TABLE #promo (promo VARCHAR(1000)) BULK INSERT #promo FROM '\\aseposretail\c$z\promo_names.txt' WITH ( --FIELDTERMINATOR = '', ROWTERMINATOR = '' ) SELECT * from #promoIt's ok when I manually execute the proc in SSMS.When I try to run the report from BIDS I got following error:*Cannot bulk load because the file "\aseposretail\c$z\promo_names.txt" could not be opened. Operating system error code 5(Access is denied.).*Note: I have gooled a bit and saw many questions on this but they are not relevant because I [b]CAN [/b]run the code no problem in [b]SSMS[/b]. It's the SSRS having the issue. I am gussing it's related to the security of SSRS but know little about this.

SSL Certificate for SSRS
Hi, I need some help on getting an SSL certificate for SQL Server Reporting Services. I've been trying to get it working but I find that the certificates that I import into the certificate store do not have a private key and therefor will not bind in Reporting Services. I have scoured the Internet in every which way and to my surprise, there seems to be no up to date directions for requesting and loading a certificate for an encrypted connection in the modern (post IIS) SSRS. I have been using the below process to create a csr which the security team uses to create a certificate.Is the below process missing a step? If so what, if not, how do I bring the certificate that is issued to me into the certificate store so that it includes a private key?I just can't seem to grap the process in any of the available documentation. Appreciate any help.1. Open the management console (click Start > Search programs and files > mmc.msc).2. Open your Local Computer certificates (click File > Add/Remove Snap-in... > Certificates > Computer account > Next > Local computer > Finish).3. Select Certificates (Local Computer) > Personal > Certificates.4. With the Certificates folder for the Local Computer highlighted, click Action > All Tasks > Advanced Operations > Create Custom Request. This will open the Certificate Enrollment wizard.5. In the Certificate Enrollment wizard:6. On the Select Enrollment Policy screen, under Custom Request, select Proceed without enrollment policy and click Next.7. On the Custom request screen, for template, choose "(No template) Legacy key" from the drop-down menu, and leave "Suppress default extensions" unchecked.8. For Request format, select PKCS#10.9. Click Next.10. On the Certificate Enrollment screen, click Details, then click Properties. This will open a Certificate Properties dialog box.11. On the General tab, enter a Friendly name and Description for your certificate.12. On the Subject tab13. Select Common Name from the Type menu, enter your fully qualified DNS name for the value, and click "Add >".14. Optionally, add Subject Alternative name values, if you need them.15. On the Extensions tab16. Expand "Key usage" and add "Digital signature" to the selected options, and verify that "Make these key usages critical" is checked.17. Expand "Extended Key Usage (application policies)" and add "Server Authentication" and "Client Authentication" to the selected options, and verify that "Make the Extended Key Usage critical" is checked.18.

Apparent Contradiction in SSRS Authentication
Hi,I think I've found an apparent contradiction in the SSRS authentication document for SQL Server 2012. Can anybody tell me whether I've misunderstood something or if this, indeed, is a mistake.On the RSReportServer Configuration File page (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms157273.aspx), you get the following descriptions:[b]RSWindowsBasic[/b] - The server accepts Basic credentials and issues a [b]challenge/response when a connection is made without credentials[/b]. Basic authentication passes credentials in the HTTP requests in clear text. If you use Basic authentication, use SSL to encrypt network traffic to and from the report server. To view example configuration syntax for Basic authentication in Reporting Services.RSWindowsNTLM - The server accepts NTLM security tokens. If you remove this setting, browser support will be limited for some of the supported browser types.However on the Authentication with the Report Server page (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb283249.aspx), you get the following:RSWindowsBasic - Basic authentication is defined in the HTTP protocol and can only be used to authenticate HTTP requests to the report server. Credentials are passed in the HTTP request in base64 encoding. If you use Basic authentication, use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to encrypt user account information before it is sent across the network. SSL provides an encrypted channel for sending a connection request from the client to the report server over an HTTP TCP/IP connection.[b]RSWindowsNTLM[/b] - Uses NTLM for Windows Integrated authentication.The credentials will not be delegated or impersonated on other requests. Subsequent requests will follow a [b]new challenge-response sequence[/b]. Depending on network security settings, a user might be prompted for credentials or the authentication request will be handled transparently.Why does one page say that it's RSWindowsBasic that issues a challenge/response while the other one says that it's RSWindowsNTLM who does that. Am I missing something or is this a Microsoft documentation blunder?Any help would be greatly appreciated.

MS Access vs SSRS - impact on SQL Server
HiMy current employer has a slew of homemade reporting using MS Access. At times, these reports place a great deal of load on SQL Server, and I'm looking for ways to reduce resource usage. The Access database is set up with several linked table, and queries are then run off these linked tables.I'm wondering if there would be any performance benefit to switching these reports over to SSRS. Will the reports run faster in SSRS? Will the CPU/IO/Memory be reduced on SQL?I will be running some tests on a per-query basis to try to find out the difference, but in the meantime if anyone has any experience with this, I'd be greatful for your insights. :-D

Data Driven Subscriptions without SQL Enterprise
Introduction
Do you have SQL Reports that need to go to different people but each person's report has different parameters? Don't have the resources to purchase the Enterprise edition of SQL 2000? The only solution available in Standard edition, besides writing your own front end in .NET was to create a subscription for each unique report, person and parameter. After only a short amount of time, you've got a ton of subscriptions to manage.
Well, that's the situation I was in, and it was quickly becoming a nightmare managing all of the subscription change requests. I started thinking "Reporting Services is just a regular ol' database with an ASP.NET front end. There's got to be a way to do it..."
Well, EURIKA! It seems the subscription information is stored in a table named, of all things "Subscriptions" and the parameter information is stored in, Yep, "Parameters". ... Those tricky Microsoft guys!
Anyway I wrote a stored procedure that will look for predefined text in the subscription and replace it with what you supply. It may not be as pretty as the version in SQL Enterprise, but this one gets the job done, and it is very useful!
I have not included any error checking and currently this SP only allows for one parameter. Feel free to modify the code as you see fit. Any suggestions or comments are welcome, email me.
Thank you and I hope this helps or at least gives you ideas on where to go next.
Instructions
- Create the stored procedure. Shown below.
- Create a new subscription for the report that you want to set up the data driven subscription for. Use the following settings: To Address: |TO| (pipe + TO + pipe)Carbon Copy Address: |CC|Blind Copy Address: |BC|Reply To Address: |RT|Comment / Body: |BD|Parameter 1: |P1|
- Now set the schedule of the report to run once.
- Set the beginning date and ending date to a date prior to today to keep the report from running unless you call it.
- In Enterprise Manager find the job you just created. It will have a Last Run Status of “Unknown” and the Next Run Date will be “Date and time are not available”. This job's name is what you’ll need to pass to the stored procedure as the Schedule ID. You can also run the query below to list the Job Names directly from the Report Server Database. Your job should be the first one listed.
- To execute the subscription, simply call the stored procedure passing the parameter values.
SELECT ReportSchedule.ScheduleID, Subscriptions.ModifiedDate FROM Subscriptions INNER JOIN ReportSchedule ON Subscriptions.SubscriptionID = ReportSchedule.SubscriptionID WHERE (Subscriptions.Description LIKE N'%|TO|%') ORDER BY Subscriptions.ModifiedDate DESC
Conclusion
Now you are ready to call your procedure from within your code.
Again, any comments, suggestions or improvements are welcome, email me.

Dual value axis in line chart
Is there a way to display a value (vertical) axis on both the left and right of a line chart? I output a chart in PDF format. The Blackberry users need to zoom in to view the chart. By the time they reach the right side of the chart, it is not easy to remember what the value is. I would like to have another value axis on the right. If it matters, I am using 2008 to create the chart.
