I am using Data driven subscription to send report in Email body and as an excel attachment.
In email,I am seeing the report as Body,but report as excel attachment is missing.
The requirement is I need report to be send as an attachment and in Body in one email.How can I achieve this using Data driven subscription.
I have created table with two rows and format like 'excel' and 'mhtml' and referring the column 'REPORTFORMAT' to Render format.
Please let me know how can i send both in one email
You cannot do it automatically - Include Report determines whether the report is included as either an embedded report or attachment but cannot do both.
Include Report: Select this option to embed or attach a copy of the report. The format of the report is determined by the rendering format you select.
MS Docs: Create Subscription
You current process with two rows should be creating two reports - one with an attachment and one with it embedded.
You could add the data in the report body in the Comment field but the data would need to be converted in to an HTML table.
You need to use the string "EXCELOPENXML" as the rendering format, then it will work. It used to work with the string "Excel" only but now it no longer works like that. With Word you also need to use the string "WORDOPENXML". You will then get the reports as attachment files, as per your requirement.

I am trying to get the subscription for SSRS to send the CSV data to an existing Excel template so that the data is formatted to our excel reports and all the conditional formatting in them every morning but it's just creating a new file. How do I send the data to a specific template file?
While SSRS doesn't have built-in functionality for exporting directly to an Excel template, I have a suggestion for a workaround. Use SSRS to export the data in CSV or Excel format. Then, in the Excel template file, go to the Data menu and select Get Data > From File. This lets you use Excel's built-in Power Query functionality to reference the exported file as a data source.
One of the benefits of this approach is that to get fresh data all you need to do is overwrite the data file and then click "Refresh All" in your Excel file. You can also take advantage of the transformation functions that are available in Power Query to avoid repetitive cleanup tasks if needed.
I'm fairly new to SSRS reports and I'm hoping that there's a simple solution to my problem that I haven't spotted yet...
I have a simple SSRS report that receives a couple of user entered parameters at run time. The DB is queried using these parameters and the results are displayed to the screen in a simple table. Is it possible to have the output automatically written to a csv file as well as to the screen?
I realise that there's the option of the user creating the csv themselves by using the 'export' button when the report has been rendered but I'm trying to avoid that.
What I'm hoping to achieve is to have a report where the user types in their parameter values, clicks 'view report' and can then see their results and create a csv of the output at the same time.
Is this possible?
From my Access DB, I need to build up a document that will be automatically generated on the closure of a certain form.
The document will contain the data of the table as each simple report. But the document must contain other things:
First Page with some text and images
Table of Content
A couple of paragraph of fixed text
In the table, there are also some attachments that are Visio flows. It would be great also to have them in the document, for example as an image at the end of each record.
To do this, is it more suitable build up a Report or Export the data to Word? What do the best practices advise?
You can use an OLE object to display files within your Access Report.
You can get fairly flexible with an Access report but Word will have more options for formatting etc
I understand it is possible to export the report data into multiple file types using the export button. however i'm wanting to access the information without having to manually export. So my question is, is it possible using a batch file or powershell to read a text box on the report and output it say into a notepad file or spreadsheet. or if not maybe just a way to export all of the data on the report without having to manually do it? Screenshot attached for an example.
One option is to create a subscription for the report and either have an attachment emailed to you or have it saved to a network location. In either case, there are several export options (csv, excel, xml, etc.). If you're only wanting partial data from the report, I'd recommend creating a sql query or just create a new report that gets you exactly what you need.
Using SSRS for SS 2008, is there a way to force the report to download rather than render? I have a report that has thousands of rows - rather than waste resources returning the resultset to the front end, I would rather just force the user to download a CSV or XLS file.
This is not a subscription-based report - rather, it is adhoc via a "click".
I think exporting using url might be your solution. Try the following :
