Report parameter controls

  • [アーティクル]

Nearly any report requires you to fill some parameters before you run it. Most commonly you are asked to provide a date range, objects you are interested in and maybe some other parameters that drive report content.

"Report parameters block" is the place where all these parameters are entered. Report parameters block consist of a set of report parameter controls. Each parameter control defines a visual representation for one or more underlying report parameters.

Report parameter controls used for a particular report are defined in the RPDL file.
Here is the schema for them:

<xs:element name="Control" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>

            <xs:element name="ReportParameters" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="ReportParameter" 
                                           minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="Prompt" type="xs:string"
minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" />
</xs:sequence>
<xs:attribute name="name" type="xs:token" use="required" />
<xs:attribute name="binding" type="xs:token" use="optional" />
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>

            <xs:element name="Properties" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="Property"
minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:sequence>
<xs:element name="Value" type="xs:string"
minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="1" />
</xs:sequence>
<xs:attribute name="name" type="xs:token" use="required" />
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>

        </xs:sequence>
<xs:attribute name="type" type="xs:token" use="optional" />
<xs:attribute name="columnSpan" type="xs:unsignedByte" use="optional" />
<xs:attribute name="rowSpan" type="xs:unsignedByte" use="optional" />
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>

As you can see from the schema parameter control has a list of underlying report parameters it uses. The way it uses them is defined by "binding" attribute. Binding are defined by specific control code. You cannot change the way it is handled but you can set which report parameter is used for it. "Empty" or default binding is usually used for a report parameter the control sets value for but this is not a strict rule.

Next section is parameter control properties. It's a name multi-value collection. These properties changes control behavior or visual appearance. An example of a property could be control maximum width or background color.

All "out of the box" report parameter controls are defined in Microsoft.SystemCenter.DataWarehouse.Report.Library management pack. Here are some most commonly used ones:

Microsoft.SystemCenter.DataWarehouse.Report.ParameterControl.

EndDate_OffsetValue (end date offset value)

Parameters

MaxWidth (control maximum width in pixels)

Microsoft.SystemCenter.DataWarehouse.Report.ParameterControl.
BusinessRelativeDateTimePicker

    Hi Eugene, I'm just finalizing a security mp and now it's reporting time. I'm just wondering what I need to install on my dev machine to edit SCOM 2007 reports. I need to start from standard reports and being able to modify them to get what I want (you know it's easier than to start from scratch), I see you're using third party chart controls and custom assemblies... Can you help? Thanks

    Hi Daniele, Visual Studio is the primary authoring tool for custom reports. You should be able to take SCOM 2007 reports open and modify them. To make reports compile in Visual Studio you would need to copy Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.Reporting.Code.dll and MicrosoftRSChart.dll from SSRS bin directory (Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.NReporting ServicesReportServerbin) to VS private assemblies directory (Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEPrivateAssemblies). Unfortunately as of now you would not be able to use designer for Microsoft Enterprise Chart control. This limitation should go away in the next service pack. Eugene.

    Is it possible to create custom "Availability" report and use there 2/3/n time frames for "Bussines Hours" ? As I understand correcly is it Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.Reporting.ParameterProcessor and Microsoft.SystemCenter.DataWarehouse.Report.ParameterControl. BusinessRelativeDateTimePicker

    Business hours got filtered inside the report logic after all the data is fetched from the SQL Server. In custom report you can certainly replace this logic (filter condition) with your own and make it as complex as you need. N time frames is not something this is currently supported by the business hours control however, so if you want to use more frames for business hours you would need to pass these hour intervals in a separate parameter.

    Hi KITS, Can you please post the exact error message you are getting?
    How exactly do you modify the standard reports? Do you use RPDL?

    Are there <hidden> controls for displaying the StartDate_BaseValue of Microsoft.SystemCenter.DataWarehouse.Report.ParameterControl. BusinessRelativeDateTimePicker ? The default is hidden=true and it is not apparent how to get them to display.  I notice that in the Report Manager > Properties tab > Parameters subtab, I can control an individual report's display settings for different fields, but are they controlable via the RPDL?

    Report parameter visibility is defined in RDL. MP does not control it. If you want to provide a custom set of parameters to a standard report you could author a new report that will call existing one as a sub-report. That way you can define any set of parameters you need and put “translation” logic of these parameters in the new report code and then just call the standard report passing the parameters in there.
