Do you plan to support sub-reports?
If yes, take in-considration passing its reports via server interface, scheduled jobs, or by aspnet/mvc/winforms/wpf viewers.

Add a "Shared resources" directory to contain images and logos used by hosted reports.

I'm using Crystal Enterprise for a longtime, and would like to replace it with that tool.
 On of the most useful feature is scheduling (for time-hungry reports, that takes more than 20 minutes to be generated).

It will be a plus if you add:
* The ability to choose the Execution start time, and frequancy; and to enable or disable the schedule job without lossing it.
* Add a menu item called "Schedule Jobs", to view all schedule jobs of any accessible report (per profile; Admin can see all categories by profiles).
* The ability to execute on-demond (execute disabled or enabled schedules for prepared parameters).
* The ability to sign the generated PDF.
* The ability to send generated PDF to mail (one or more), and to set the mail subject and body.
* nerated PDF to folder (local, remote with auth) or FTP.The ability to save the ge
* The ability to view schedule execution history, and view its result; and Add option to clear old results.
* No "time out" for longer generation process.
* Schedule jobs queued per user profiles;
* Admin can set priority to user profiles (to execute queued jobs), and can cancel jobs.

> Ability to build directories for storing reports; and allow assigning user permissions per user.
> So, Application A, will have its reports in Directory A; Application B, will have its reports in Directory B.
> It will be a plus if you support a hierarchy or sub-directories.
> It will be a plus if you add user group, to be assign by group.

I could not see the feature "Fast loading of reports" anywhere in the Report Server as like in SSRS Processing Options.

How is that working in the Telerik Report Server ?

No matter what I try, I get this error when previewing a report:

An error has occurred while processing Report 'SomeReport': Unable to establish a connection to the database. Please, verify that your connection string is valid. In case you use a named connection string from the application configuration file, make sure the name is correct and the connection string settings are present in the configuration file of your application. ------------- InnerException ------------- Format of the initialization string does not conform to specification starting at index 0.

However, everything works great while in the designer.

Any info would help.

Thanks,

We use the Kendo MVC controls in our website that is hosted on Microsoft Azure. We would like to do reporting but cannot with the Telerik reporting functionality - as far as I am aware. Cloud based websites are increasing in number....

One of the biggest draw backs I am having while pitching the Telerik reporting products is the amount of work that would be involved in converting our existing report libraries to the Telerik reporting format. You all have some conversion capability built into the Telerik Reporting Designer, but it is so limited that we rarely find a report that we can use it with. I know you all have a disclaimer stating that as the case. However when I am trying to persuade my peers to take a look at your reporting products that single scenario is the one that I can never win and rightfully so.

I would really love to either see operability within your reporting server to be able to schedule and distribute a multitude of report formats such as SRSS, Active Reports, and Crystal or a much more reliable and feature rich converter. 

The current version of reporting service seems to have issues with the newer servicestack libraries. The only way I could get the ServiceStack Service implementation to work is to use the following dependencies (attached). What is the official supported version of ServiceStack and when will newer version be supported?

Import sql server reporting (rdl) files

Have the ability for reports to be generated at defined intervals and delivered to one or more defined destinations - together. For example, a monthly report pack (consisting of a number of reports) can be sent to a client with all reports attached to the single email or compressed into a single zip file, or merged into a single Excel workbook, or PDF file before delivery.

We are disappointed with the lack of SSRS improvements over the last 8 years.  We use data driven reports extensively.  For example, every day at 10am we run some report that emails everyone a list of items in their inbox from a custom application that routes them a task they need to act on.  

The problem we experience is that there is no way to flag an item as "emailed" successfully. So we end up either writing our queries to only select the previous 24 hours worth of data, or we write the select of the data inside an SP that also updates the data to mark them as "emailed" even though if there is a problem rendering the report or a problem contacting the email server, the emails won't actually go out.

Basically if we could have a data driven subscription, and while the server is looping through the data, sending off emailed reports, we could get a hook to update status for the item that was just emailed, or just errored during report rendering.

Hi,
   You guys give the tool,but not release it's value enough;Will there are a method to localize the desinger or compile the designer from source by myself?

Our company has many different profit and loss groups which act as mini-companies that share customers, vendors & transport companies. Each group doesn't want the other groups to view reports relating to their contracts, shipments & invoices.

This has been one of the failing of the Microsoft Report Server. I would have to pass in the query string the groupid. Any group could manipulate the query string to see other groups reports. So all reports are built in the web app with the groupid setup in their profile.

A solution to our type of business reporting needs would be helpful. Otherwise we will just roll our own reports in the next version also.

Following the ReportServerManual.pdf I meet the system requirements, using Visual Studio 2013 and have followed the installation guide but I am getting the following error when running the report server web application;

"A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 50 - Local Database Runtime error occurred. Cannot create an automatic instance. See the Windows Application event log for error details.
)"

I have checked the application pool identity has permission to the files.
Please advise.  Kind regards, Scott.

In many cases one can't simply ask users to download an installed report builder. The reports should be buildable in a web based tool.

Much needed. :)

It would be great if users didn't need to authenticate with two different web applications.

I would use the report server integrated with my current ASP.net website. It would be great if it authenticated and authorized users based on the same roles also.
