I have created a report using SQL and SSRS and i have come to upload it to CRM.
It is an enhancement of a previous report and includes a new parameter. For some reason I can't delete the old report as it is in a managed solution (though it is marked as customisable) so I simply tried to upload it as a new report with a different name. My new parameter is not showing, I know I am uploading the right file and I can see the parameter when I run in VS but CRM will not show my new parameter.
Any ideas?

Here I have a question that is it possible to create an interactive report.
I have a requirement like I have to approve bulk data in Maximo side with birt, in birt report I will keep check boxes who else will run that report they will select that checkboxes if they select the checkbox in the report, the same checkbox need to update in Maximo record. In Maximo also records contain checkboxes.
Two examples of how Maximo does this in the out of the box reports would be the Inventory ROP Analysis and Inventory EOQ Analysis reports - both come with the option on the last page to update Maximo with the suggested Economic Order Quantity or Re Order Point data. That's where I'd start.
The BIRT update reports are interesting. There are several actually. The update report is called directly from the runtime report, as #JohnHartin states. They are not registered directly to the Application. This is for security reasons.
The update report when executed will take the same input parameters you entered into the runtime report and essentially re-execute the report , except the update report has SQL which writes back to the DB. As mentioned as and example: the ROP Analysis. You will find the ".rptdesign" file in the {Maximo_home}/reports/birt/reports/INVENTOR folder on your Maximo build machine. (The report subfolder is the repository you import into BIRT tool to modify your reports.)
From your BIRT workstation navigate to the INVENTOR folder in your project browser and you can then see it in BIRT. Next, you will be able to open up the design file, (note the update reports have "update" as part of the design file name so real easy to identify.) Then you can examine the SQL in the Initialize method of the report.
Since this report works in conjunction with the Analysis report what happens when you touch the update button on the analysis report, is the data generated in the analysis report is parsed and sent as multiple update SQL transactions back to Maximo DB. It is incumbent upon you to be very careful making any modifications to the Analysis AND update reports together.
Hope this helps.
I have created a page with master detail report on Oracle Apex version 18.1. I am trying to download the reports through actions menu but I am only able to download the master report. If I click download for the detailed report, its generating an empty file even when data is present. I have also tried creating a manual download button but that is also generating an empty file. Can someone please suggest a solution?
I have uploaded one SSRS report with a description and another one without a description. When I change/add the description on both reports, for some reason the report that already has a description does not have its description updated. The one without the description however, gets its description updated just fine.
So what I had to do is delete the report from the server and reupload it. This will allow the descriptions to be shown properly.
Why is this happening and is there a configuration setting that I am missing?
Issue re-deploying updated default parameters in SSRS report
Please see the above link and answer from Dining Philanderer (https://stackoverflow.com/users/30934/dining-philanderer)
I am trying to start with odoo. One of the most import thing for us would be to generate different layout for sale orders.
I've started with this document: https://github.com/odoo/odoodays-2014/blob/master/v8_reporting_engine/index.rst
It is from the "odoodays 2014" and shows how to customize an existing report. This works fine. I don't understand the points under "Generic / particular report".
Now I'm lost trying to add a new report (starting with a copy of the exisiting report) with a custom template.
I've tried to add a new item in the report view in settings, but I can't add any linked qweb views (I've added a new one, but it didn't get a new ID).
I've tried to create a copy in the views directory of the addon but it didn't help.
Is there any tutorial for this ?
Is there somebody who can give me some pointers how to add a new report ?
After searching around I've come to this solution. I've translated all the menu headers from German, because I'm using Odoo in German.
reports are listed in Settings / Reporting / Reports
you can click one of the reports
if you edit one of the reports you can click on "Search for linked QWeb Views" - you can click and change these views. They are in HTML and are used for the data in the reports
New reports are typically added with a plugin.
If you would like to change the report with the website editor you can install the website builder. If you change one of the reports from PDF to HTML (in Settings / Reporting / Reports) you get a popup when you're generating the report.
In this popup you can change the report template. With this you can change the template with the website builder tools.
These reports are saved in the database in the table ir_ui_view. If you change to another database they still have the original reports (this was my big fear - that changing the reports changes them for all databases).
Header and footer are still changed in the company settings with RDL.
So basically everything from the odoodays-2014 document is working like they've showed on this website - it was just pretty hard to find out how these things worked.
I'm opening an SSRS2008 report using the http://server/reportserver/... syntax, outputting directly a PDF copy. This report has several parameters.
The problem is that, despite making changes to the report, and clearing the browser's temporary files cache.. if I request the same report (i.e. same parameters) - the old report is returned.
In the report execution properties, I have "Always run this report with the most recent data" and "Do not cache temporary copies of this report" selected.
It's not just a case of caching data, but the entire report (including formatting, e.g. I deleted a page from the report yet it was still being shown...) and as I haven't specifically chosen to perform any caching I'm a little concerned and clearly don't fully understand what's going on!
Any tips?
Even if you change the report SSRS caches the data and does not reload it unless the parameters change.
If you have a time sensitive report, or during development you can add a parameter to force the reload and set the default value to =TimeOfDay().
This way SSRS always sees it as a new request.
You probably want to verify that you've properly deployed the modified report to the server.
Are you able to see the differences exporting to PDF vs. viewing it in the web SSRS Report Manager?
