I am trying to create a URL link for a report and pass in a date parameter.
The report has an InDate parameter that maps to a dropdown populated by a SQL query. The query returns a datetime (value) and an expression (label) that outputs the date value in a {month}-{year} format. Actual label values that appear in the dropdown are "Jun-2012","Mar-2012", etc. The InDate parameter is also used as an input to drive two other date dropdown lists.
The current iteration of the report URL is as follows:
dadsql04/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2fRED+Data+Warehouse/RRMemo&rs%3aCommand=Render&rc%3aParameters=false&InDate=06/30/2012
When I load the URL I get the following error message:
The InDate parameter is missing a value
I have tried using different values for the InDate parameter, escaping the slashes, etc. and nothing seems to work. Any help or code sample would be appreciated.
It turns out the problem was that the InDate parameter was defined as a string instead of a datetime value. Once the parameter was changed from string to datetime the URL worked without an issue.
Date parameter format looks good, but the URL you're trying to use is referencing the Report Manager component.
Use this URL to query the report web service directly:
http://dadsql04/ReportServer?/RED+Data+Warehouse/RRMemo&rc:Parameters=false&InDate=06/30/2012

I need to pass a date parameter as per below url. I'm trying this from the browser:
http://Server1/ReportServer_SQLTest?/Accounting%20Statements
&rs:Command=Render
&rdt=1115
&prt=187
&edr=11%2f02%2f2021TO
&cdr=11%2f02%2f2021TO
&sdr=11%2f02%2f2021TO
&ed=11%2f02%2f2021
&cd=11%2f02%2f2021
&sd=11%2f02%2f2021
&Grp=45
&ReportFormat=consolidated
&filter1=3
&event=187
&StyleOption=1
&vis_usr=-9999
&call=51fc7815-18e6-4574-a59a-c8a9d223df64
&rs:Format=pdf
it threw an error
Default value or value provided for the report parameter 'edr' is not a valid value. (rsInvalidReportParameter)
I tried in various ways passing the edr date parameter. Still throws error. Any suggestions?
It would look like the issue is that your edr, cdr and sdr parameters all have TO at the end of the passed value, which is not part of any valid date format that I am aware of.
I solved the problem. In SSRS TO means Today; and YS means Yesterday. The SSRS validates if today is 11%2f02%2f2021TO; So I changed as below. I took these parameter values from existing db entries.
&edr=11%2f09%2f2021TO
&cdr=11%2f09%2f2021TO
&sdr=11%2f09%2f2021TO
I have a query that is using this convert function that correctly displays the data when I preview it in the SSRS Dataset:
CONVERT(varchar(255), HashedFileNum, 1) AS HashedFileNum
returns values like
0x7BB9D2F1A8A1B39832B95B932DD73A31
However when I try to add that field to my report I get #ERROR in the field instead of the value.
Any suggestions on getting the value to show in my report?
Try converting to nvarchar instead of varchar; I've had a similar issues in the past.
I have passed one parameter to report server url.
http://<your server>/ReportServer?/<folder>/<reportname>&UserID=Name
How can I read UserID value in report.
Or
How can I print this value in any of the textbox to check what is passed to it?
For example: Above url should show 'Name'.
Based on your comments I think you've figured this out already, but all you should need is the parameter UserId to exist on the report and it will get its value from the query string.
A couple other problems that can crop up when trying to pass a parameter:
Report parameters are case sensitive
Report parameters with visibility set to Internal can't be passed a value through URL
See also: Pass a report parameter within a URL on MSDN
You can try with the Built-In SSRS fields ...
Try using Expression -> Built-In-Fields -> UserId should work in this case, if I understood your question correctly...
OR
Try manipulating the report server URL. Provided below one for example ...
=mid(Globals!ReportServerUrl , InStr(Globals!ReportServerUrl,"&UserID=")+8)
Issue was with my parameter UserId.
I have set it as Internal that's why it was set to default value blank space instead of passed parameter UserId value. (Now I am using hidden)
Note: Report parameters are case sensitive so in my case it must be UserId
I have created data set (as TFS drill through report) using TFSOlap data source which is displaying all bugs based on created date. Now, I want to pass date range as parameter from main report so drill through report displays data for the bugs created between given date range. I am getting error "string.. can not be converted to date type" I am using following formatting expression at drillthrough report parameter:
="[Work Item].[System_CreatedDate].&[" + FORMAT(Parameters!FromWorkItemSystemCreatedDate, "yyyy-MM-dd") + "T00:00:00]"
Please let me know what type of expression should be used to avoid error. I tried with using CDate() instead of FORMAT but still getting problem.
I am new to reporting services and have a reporting services 2005 report that I am working on to use as a base report template for our organization. I am trying to place the date that the report was last modified on the report server into the page header of the report. However, I keep getting a 'ParamX' parameter is missing a value error when I try to This is what I have done:
Set up a Parameter ReportName with a default value of Globals!ReportName. It is also hidden and internal.
Set up a Dataset ReportHeader that calls a stored procedure that returns the date the report was last updated or another date, if the report is not on the report server. It has a parameter #ReportName assigned to the Parameter!ReportName.Value. The Dataset returns values when run on the dataset tab in the BI tool.
Set up a Parameter ReportVersion that has a default value Query From based on the dataset ReportHeader and picking the ModDate column. It is the last parameter in the report parameters list.
I assign a textbox to the parameter.
When I preview, I get "The 'ReportVersion' parameter is missing a value whether I place it in the report body or page header (which is where I want it). I have deleted and added the parameter again, toyed with the hidden and internal settings on it.
What does this error really mean, what I am missing, and can I even do this with parameters?
Thanks In Advance
Jim
If I understand what you're doing, it sounds like you want to be using a field where you're implementing a parameter...
You are returning the ModDate from the data source, correct? If you're doing this, you can simply throw a text box in there, and use something like this: =Fields!modDate.Value to display it.
Parameters are values that go in to the query, fields are what it returns.
Hope this helps...
EDIT:: OK so are you trying to retrieve the mod-date column value from the reportserver db? If that's what we're talking about, you'll need to add a few things to the report. Add a datasource to report db, a dataset containing the date (query below), a list object in the report linked to the dataset, and a textbox in said list object to display the field. If you hit the report server with a query like this:
SELECT MAX(ModifiedDate) AS ModDate FROM catalog WHERE name='myReportName'
That will return your modifieddate from the ReportSErvices Database as a field that you can use.
