SSRS Report from Constituent Report menu

I have a SSRS (Post type) report that is currently run via the Report/Utility screen,  and it is working great. I would like to run it via the Constituent Report sub-menu and pass through the constituent id to the report. (The report takes the constituent id as a parameter). I was following the instructions in the "Custom Report Setup" document,  page 47-48, and have added the report name to the menu,  but all I get is a blank page. 

Is it possible to run an SSRS-post type report through the constituent report menu?  Or must the report be a SSRS-url type report?   The docs werent entirely clear, but I suspect that may be the case.

Thanks,

Dave

  • SSRS reports are only accessible through URL Access on custom screens and constituent reports, not using the SSRS Proxy (via SSRS Post type).

  • Thanks Ryan!  Unfortunately still having a problem,  due to my inexperience working on Tessitura.  I've attempted to create an SSRS-URL report,  and definiting it in t_constituent_report,  but all I'm getting is a blank screen. 

    Does the report get defined still in the report setup app,  or just specify the url in t_constituent_report 'D Object' column?

    Also, on the SSRS report,  how should I be specifying the constituent id parameter?

    Thanks...

  • Hi David,

    Did you ever get this working?

    I'm trying to get the new v11 'Constituent Profile' (which is SSRS) report to run from the Constituent report menu.

     

    thanks,

    Just wanted to bump this thread.  I would like to add an SSRS report to the Constituent menu.  I know I need to enter a URL in T_CONSTITUENT_REPORT, but I'm not sure how ti construct the URL.  I don't believe it would be the same as the one used to run the report from the Web.  Am I wrong about this?

    Thanks!

    We've done this successfully in v11.0.4 using the following format:

    <<URL>>?[REPORT_PATH_AND_NAME]&rs:Command=Render&customer_no=<<key>>&UserGroup=<<ug>>&UserId=<<user>> &CompanyName=<<companyname>>

    Replace [REPORT_PATH_AND_NAME] with the same path and name as you would use it in the Report Setup application. (don't use brackets!)

    I remember there being a rendering issue when we first went to v11, but there was either a hotfix or something in the 11.0.4 upgrade that fixed that.

    Hope that helps!
