I am new to SSAS. We have a cube that has been working fine for more than two years but data for Dec 2017 and this month (Feb 2018) only is not showing up. Why would the data stop showing up for these two teo months only!
Can someone let me know what I need to check?

SSRS RDL paginated reporting - Every time I edit an RDL report it removes the selected filters in report builder
It started a couple years ago periodically, when I would open to edit an existing rdl report the filters would remain but fields were blank. I logged a ticket with my saas vendor who came back with it being a known issue with MS but I wasn't able to find any reference online.
Some reports are from years ago, and having hundreds I need to review the MDX in the query before editing to remember what the default or filter values were...
Anyone else experiencing this?
I tried editing an rdl file in report builder and was expecting the filter selections to remain and not be blown out.
I am trying to do a schema compare in VS 2015 to identify what changes i have made to the staging database, but it is not displaying any changes for some reason. It only displays delete and add.
I know for a fact i have made changes to numerous stored procs and a number of functions as well.
I have been trawling the internet for at least 2 days now trying to figure out why this is not working, but there is not a lot of information to go on :(
Tried the following:
Changing database target platform
Matching database collation
Number of different settings found under the schema compare settings
Comparing LIVE database to my staging one (Still just add and delete)
Has anyone else experience this with their Visual Studio 2015 Enterprise edition ?
Please let me know if you require any further information from my side.
PLEASE HELP!!!
Thanks,
Mike
This may be too obvious, but it looks like the caret arrows on the left show the data is rolled up. Try clicking on the arrows (or double clicking) to expand the lists.
We have a department that has been working in an excel spreadsheet to track a major part of our business. I'm sure this comes as no surprise to anyone, but the Excel Spreadsheet is a hot mess right now. As we are working on implementing a long term solution for this data, I need a short term solution and I am hoping you might have some recommendations. For the next two months, we need to identify problem areas in the spreadsheet (duplicate rows, missing data, etc) and as those problems are addressed in the excel spreadsheet, update the SQL server with those changes.
My thought is to schedule an SSIS to bring in the spreadsheet with changes nightly then run a stored proc to identify the problems, then run an SSRS to spit out a new excel spreadsheet for them to work on the next day.
Is there a better way to do this that isn't going to take a ton of time/resources to get up and running? I thought about Power Pivot and that would get the data out to them, but how would I upload the changes they make?
Anyway, is there a better quick solution to tide us over till we have our perm solution in place? We are using a 2014 SQL Server and Microsoft Office 2016.
Thank you!
My recommendation is to use .NET with NPOI dlls https://github.com/tonyqus/npoi, grab the data from the spreadsheet, use classes, Generics and LINQ to clean the data and the upload it to SQL Server.
I want to know if it possible to repoduce the idea of Excel 2010 sparklines in a SSRS 2005 Report. I want to show a report that has an indication of the price fluctuations over a 3 month period for a range of products. I could just give the figures over the 3 month period but it is very hard to quickly distinguish what is happening to the various products in a sea of numbers.
See this, which shows it's possible, and this, which although it doesn't mention sparklines explicitly, explains how to embed a chart per-row in a table.
You could try to embed a chart object per line. That's it.
Or programmatically get an Excel sheet from SSRS and enrich it in code.
I am using a third party Sparkline chart control that was originally written for SSRS 2005 - it's been updated for 2008 but I'm pretty sure it still supports SSRS 2005.
I've done a bit of research into embedding Sparklines into a reporting services report and this was what I choose as my solution. They have a nice fully featured evaluation version which is good for 40 days (I think).
SparkLines for Reporting Services
Ok I have a sql server database view with a list of bookings (employee, date, charge). What i need to do is create a PerformancePoint chart that basically lists the employees and totals all their charges for a particular period.
e.g.
Karen 01/01/2010 £50
Jim 01/01/2010 £20
Karen 02/01/2010 £30
Tim 03/01/2010 £70
Chart for January
Karen £75
Jim £60
Tim £70
The data would then be used in various graphs etc..
How would i go about doing this? I have PerformancePoint raring to go, and I can enter sql statements etc...but its the totalling the individuals and only returning results for a specific period (that can change) that I am struggling with. Would i need to use a web service for this? I know how to make them but no idea how to integrate with PerformancePoint.
Many thanks to all who contribute
You can do this many different ways. Here is one path:
Use Reporting Services to display your matrix, like so:
Jan Feb Mar
Karen $75 $50 $40
Jim $60 $65 $70
Tim $70 $75 $80
Then you create a report shell (Other Reports --> SQL Server Report) in Dashboard Designer. Link to your report you just created. You will need to either link to your deployed report in Report Server or your SharePoint integrated report.

Next create a dashboard in Dashboard Designer. In this dashboard, place the report you create the report shell you created in step 2.
Deploy your dashboard to a report library in MOSS.
Publish a major version of your dashboard report in MOSS.
that's about the gist of it. You should realize that using PerformancePoint for this isolated incident is kinda overkill. However, if you have a bunch of metrics that you want to incorporate into your BI presentation, then PerfPoint will work just fine.
