Invoice Sample

Anyone know where I can find a sample RDL that is styled like an invoice
form?
Header - contains Sold To/Ship To
Detail - Invoice Line Items
Footer - contains invoice totals
TIA
TinaTina,
Reporting Services installs sample reports. There is one particular report
you could probably use as template.
The report is called Sales Order Detail report. It resembles an invoice. You
should be able to access this report in http://<server>/ReportServer in the
SampleReports folder. You can access the design of this report in Visual
Studio .Net.

You can put the Bill To and Ship To information in the Table Header and have
it repeat.

Invalid URI: The hostname could not be parsed. Help!

I'm getting this all of a sudden on a report that previously worked for me.
I uploaded a new RDL after putting in a new graphic and adding a couple of
text boxes, but not much else that I can see. Any clues?Where is the image coming from? Is it a URL? Check Value property to make
sure the image is accessible.

Invalid character in a report

Hi!

Trying to generate a report (using WebForm ReportViewer, from dynamically created RDL report and SQL Server 2005 OLAP cube), if a database field contains control characters (code < 0x20), Reporting Services generate following message:

' ', hexadecimal value 0x02, is an invalid character. Line 1, position 2376.

Is it possible to ignore that? I don't care if browser shows an octopus, the report must work.

Thanks, Andrei.

Could you publish RDL (or e-mail it to me)?

thanks!

Lev,

I've just emailed RDL and other details to you.

I could reproduce the problem using sample AdventureWorksDW and OLAP (standard edition).

Create an OLAP table report, put e.g. Model Name in one of columns. The report works fine. Now change e.g. ModelName for one of products, to include control character(s), e.g.:

update DimProduct
set ModelName = 'Mountain-100 ' + char(31) + char(2) + ' AB'
where ProductAlternateKey = 'BK-M82S-38'

Reprocess Product dimension.

Refresh the report. Once Montain-100 model is about to be displayed on the page you should get following message:

hexadecimal value 0x1F, is an invalid character. Line 1, position 2385.

I've just noticed that after the change applied even OLAP browser of SQL Server Management Studio generates the same error if only the ModelName is about to be displayed.

So it may be Analysis Service's problem indeed.

I've tried with non-OLAP reports in Reporting Services, and they work fine, displaying square placeholders.

|||That is known AS issue. Certain control characters cannot be transmitted from server to client.
