As a user utilizing the Report Server product, I need to use a single instance of it to serve two or more completely separated divisions/clients so that they do not have access to each other's assets, so that I do not have to make two different deployments of the server and support them. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multitenancy

Add per hour scheduling with filters for hours and days on which to execute.

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....

In order to provide better data-driven subscriptions implementation, the subscribers of a Scheduled Task or Data Alert should be modified dynamically. Currently they are a static list of emails, which is not convenient when a report must be sent to a whole group of users in an organization, because the group members can constantly fluctuate.
Report Server should provide the option to declare an external data retrieval service in the ST/DA subscribers list. This service could be a REST API endpoint or a file path that will return the list with the subscriber emails.

I extensively use sub reports with drill-down, drill-through actions and to fetch data, into the main report, extracted from different datasets based on a set of certain parameters.

When I upload these reports to the server, I assign main and sub reports to two separate categories 'Main' and 'SubR' so that I can manage reports and users' permissions accordingly.

Currently, it is not possible to 'hide' the reports under 'SubR' category for a user so that all the sub reports are hidden from view, leaving visibility of main reports only for that user.

I tried by restricting user's access to the category 'SubR' so that sub reports are not visible in the list and avoid confusion from user's perspective. But when I restrict user's access to the category 'SubR', all the main reports that contain sub reports do not run correctly and start displaying 'unable to access subreport1...' error. The same error comes up if I have included a report in the main report, accessible by drill-through action.

I would like to request for a functionality to 'Hide / Display' reports in conjunction with 'Read' access to the reports. This will provide further granularity to the way the reports can be made accessible and still be hidden from view.

Some of my reports with large data take long time to run, and so we are considering scheduling these in the Telerik Server. How do we retrieve the output of these scheduled reports. I want to display the scheduled reports in my angular application. Will the reports be run and the outputs in pdf/excel be stored on the server from where they can be pickedpicked up and shown to the viewer?

As a developer integrating the the Report Server with my solution, I would like to be able to apply a fully customizable Kendo theme to the Report Server server app so that it can blend fully with my applications.

Currently, the only way to integrate with Active Directory is to use Federation Services. We do not have a Federation Server nor do we require one. It would be great to add the LDAP information and be able to authenticate with AD. 

While larger organizations use ADFS and its required for Azure, for small networks and organizations, ADFS is overkill for trying to achieve SSO.

Ability for multiple reports to share the same web services data source?

Currently, the Reports view is loading slowly when hundreds of reports are viewed. Optimize the Reports view for servers that manage enormous lists of reports.

Greetings,

How can I reduce the number of report revisions?

I see that there is an API for this but I was hoping that this could be done via the Report Server UI or the Report Designer UI.

Regards,
Rob Miller

After changing the culture settings on the server machine to EN-GB (which should display the date in dd/MM/yyyy format), the Preview of the report parameters still shows the date format as default, in US format (MM/dd/yyyy).

However, I would not expect to have modified the code to fix this, it should be a configurable option and/or take local server formatting.

Functionality for capturing user activity like executing reports from viewers or through the Report Server Web API.

It would be very helpful if there is a log file an administrator could examine to see the internal workings of the system instead of having to install additional software and go through many steps. For example, if sending an email for a scheduled task failed, the log file should say the reason for this: Could the server be reached? Were the credentials invalid? Was there some sort of internal error?

The ability to render a report based on the subscriber that will be receiving the report. The ability to use a subscriber e-mail address (or ether data item) as a parameter in the report so that the subscriber receives a customized report without having to create a new subscription and hard code parameters for each recipient.

Reports with resources for different languages should be rendered with the language resources and client culture.

• Preview - render the reports according to the browser settings/language;
• Scheduled Reports and Data Alerts - language/culture option is needed for every recipient;
• Server API - have to accept device info or language/culture option;

 

Background: 
Our report server database undergoes maintenance every weekend. As part of this, the report server DB is taken down without stopping the Telerik service. When the DB comes back online the reporting service doesn't recognize the re-instated DB and doesn't send out reports. 

Reply from Telerik Support:
My assumption is that the Report Server has hanged due to an error when the Storage was not available. The service has probably remained in this undefined state even after re-starting the database. Note that the Storage is a required resource, hence the service cannot work without it.
We have logged the current behavior of Report Server with respect to its Storage database for improvement in our system.

Feature request:
It would be nice to get an alert/email to the Report server admins that the Report Server DB/Storage is unavailable. 

Currently, the Report Server is installed with binding only to HTTP-type sites. This may break a Report Server site bound to an HTTPS site after upgrading to a new version. It is necessary to add the binding to HTTPS manually after each upgrade.

It would be great if there is an option for binding to HTTPS with the installation and if all the bindings can be preserved after upgrading.

Gives the users ability to set all the Telerik Report Viewer options in the Configuration page. At the moment only a few options are exposed.
