How can I set pentaho report update frequency? - reporting

With pentaho reporting software, I create report based on MYSQL query. It took much time to generate my report. Then I want to publish it to pentaho bi-server.
How can I set update frequency for my report, instead of generate every time I open it?

You can schedule a report to run on a repeated basis on the bi server. Once you've published the report, right click and select "Schedule...".

SQL Server Migration- SSRS Reports don't match old server

I am looking for some direction on how to solve this SSRS problem. Basically, I am migrating a 2012 sql server to a 2016 server. I am on the last leg which was to ensure the SSRS reports being sent out match the old prod reports.
Two of the three reports being sent out are inaccurate. One report shows up completely missing all numerical data, aside from the layout of the report. The second report has all the data in the correct locations, however it is doubling the data in one of its 3 columns. They are connected to an internal data source.
I transferred these reports by downloading (rdl) them from the Old Prod SSRS and simply uploading them to the new Prod SSRS. I have tried tinkering with the report builder/visual studio but I'm not sure what to look for.
Can you please point me in the right direction of where to look or if there is an easier way to migrate said reports?

Few words missing in the automated pdf export from jasperserver report

I need to schedule report exporting for a particular department which needs to run daily. And each day the list of employees for that department changes.

I am using Jasperserver 6.3
Talend ETL community 6.01
and tjasperserverexec component to trigger pdf export.
Can any one pls suggest how to fix this words missing in the automated export of reports. Thanks in advance.
as it was missing the last line i just concatenated with \n\r for the column and it fixed the issue..

Sub report is taking a lot of time for rendering

I am working on SSRS using SQL 2008 r2. I have created master report with sub reports using report viewer.
Issue: For each run .rdlc report is taking almost 5-10 min time to generate report in Win form. I am using VS 2010 and VB.Net. I believe the sub report is taking a lot of time rendering.
The main SP and sub report SP is getting executed in an instant.
The report however is running fine in BIDS environment but when loading in report viewer is taking a lot of time rendering
I have tried searching many options regarding this Issue but couldn't find enough help. I am sorry If my question is not enough clear to you all.
(P.S.= I am using embedded report for Winform for VS 2010 as .rdlc and not a Web report or .rdl (2008))
The standard "gotcha" in this scenario is that BIDS is using dataset cache files and not going back to SQL and re-running your query.
To avoid this you can either alter your parameters on each execution (invalidating the cache) or use this feature from the geniuses behind BIDS Helper:
http://bidshelper.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Delete%20Dataset%20Cache%20Files&referringTitle=Documentation
If this is the case, the real issue is that your datasets queries are taking a long time to run. This is usually a SQL or database design issue, not SSRS.

Change the SQL request of report

I'm creating a report using the Crystal Report for Visual Studio 2010 but I dont know how to change the SQL request.
Thanks.
I don't think you can directly change any SQL that Crystal Reports generates.
If you want to control the query yourself, you can perform your own query first and pass in your DataSet to Crystal Reports.
good
I tried to change the sql request but we can not change it after the creation of the report by cons at the time of creation using the wizzard we can selects new command, and at this level we introduce our request.
Thanks again.

Crystal Reports - Browse Data Shows Nothing

I just created a new table and filled it with data. When I run a simple select query, I can see all the data.
But when I try to build a report in Crystal with this table, I get no data. It doesn't matter if I have other tables included or not, so it isn't a linking issue.
If I right click a field and choose "browse data", I get nothing, which tells me that somehow Crystal can't read the data at all.
I created the table with the same user name/password that I used when connecting to the database from Crystal Reports.
Any ideas?
(If it matters, I'm using Oracle 10g Release 1 and Crystal Reports XI Release 2. We use a direct Oracle connection, not an ODBC.)
I found the problem. I hadn't yet committed the data on the database.
This taught me something about Oracle. I rarely use the "commit" command - but when I have created tables and filled them with data it's been via a "select" statement. Those tables have always worked. This time I did it via the insert all command. I needed to commit for that to work!
