We've been creating our own reporting procedures in SSMS... finally have enough of them we decided to make the leap to creating Tessitura reports.
Unfortunately, without a lot of expertise with on staff we're having issues even getting started.
We're on RAMP running V14 and have SSDT 2015.
Found the 2 webinars Creating an InfoMaker Report in SSRS and Leveraging SSRS, but quickly realized we needed even more basic info before getting started.
Found this:
https://www.tessituranetwork.com/knowledgebase/Default.htm#RAMP/SSRS_Access_in_RAMP.htm
Tried following the steps:
Access the SSRS Project1. Click on the link for Business Intelligence Design Studio (BIDS) located on your RAMP User desktop.2. If this is the first time opening the solution, go to File>Open>Project/Solution, and then browse to:L:\User Reports\SSRS Projects\Tessitura_Custom\Tessitura_Custom.sln
and then this message came up when we tried opening the project as recommended:
One-way upgrade
Visual Studio will automatically make functional changes to the following projects in order to open them. You will not be able to open these projects in the version of Visual Studio in which they were originally created. - Tessitura_Custom, "L:\User Reports\SSRS Projects\Tessitura_Custom\Tessitura_Custom.sln"
No changes requiredThese projects can be opened in Visual Studio 2015, Visual Studio 2013, Visual Studio 2012, and Visual Studio 2010 SP1 without changing them. - Tessitura_Custom, "L:\User Reports\SSRS Projects\Tessitura_Custom\Tessitura_Custom\Tessitura_Custom.rptproj"
So we canceled and starting sobbing quietly at our desks. (Mostly kidding.)
Any help appreciated.
Thanks!
Hi Michael,
If you don't mind opening a TASK ticket, the Hosting Services team would be happy to have a look at this with you and get you on your way.
Get thee to the developer portal! https://www.tessituranetwork.com/Support/Start/Developers
I wrote a bunch of community documentation about resources for getting started with this, which grew out of a forum post from a way back — might help! https://developer.tessituranetwork.com/display/devportal/Getting+Started+with+Custom+Reports
From what you describe, it sounds like letting VS do its "one-way upgrade" should be totally fine. That would only be affecting the solution — nothing touches your report server until you deploy from the solution.
Nick Reilingh,
Has your community "getting started with custom reports" documentation moved? The URL above seems not to be working.

The old Confluence wiki was corrupted a few years ago and could not be salvaged as there were no backups. It lives on in spirit here. I didn't get around to rewriting that particular page in the new wiki, but if memory serves, it grew out of a forum post which is still accessible and maybe even still relevant:
