SSRS Reports - What Happens when we create a Subscription for a SSRS Report?

I have created a report subscription for a Report. after that I was thinking how does it works automaticaly and sends the file to the define format.

I found that when we create a report subscription then it creates a Job in the SQL Server Agent with the details which we have set in the report scheduling for the subscription.

So whenever the perticular schedule criteria meets, this job gets executed which triggers the report to run and delivers the report out put in the defined format and to the define location or users.

so in the job agent also we can change the schedule for the Report subscription if required.

Happy Learning!

SSRS Reports - Space/Gap issue between the objects in SSRS Reports

In Reports where some objects are set to be shown/hide based on some expression/filter condition etc. There Could be some white space issue between the objects on the report( i.e. when few objects are hidden in the report, the white space between the objects will accumulate and displayed as a big gap between the objects on the report). Following are few ways using which we can handle this kind of issue: 1. Remove the Gap between the objects in the report layout. 2. Or put a text box and make the border the same as the background color and apply the same show/hide action on it. 3. If you are using a table/matrix then instead of putting the space between objects, just add one static row above the column header for the table/matrix and make the border color the same background color. below is one approach: The report before any space handling: -----------------------------------------------------------------------------  Report Preview when all the o...

How to do Error Handling for Transaction using Try Catch Block

Issue : Some time we get requirements where we have to use transaction to do some DML operations to make sure the unit of work should be done completely. But there could be error while doing this. So, how we can cope up with errors to achieving this? Solution: We can use Transaction in the Try Catch block to make sure that the transaction either successful or rollback if there is any error. Below is an example for this: BEGIN TRY --Start the Try Block.. BEGIN TRANSACTION -- Start the transaction.. UPDATE [dbo] . [Table] SET salary = salary * 1.1 WHERE MID = 6 --DML operations to be done in the transaction COMMIT TRAN -- Transaction Success! END TRY --End of the Try Block BEGIN CATCH --Start the Catch Block IF @@TRANCOUNT > 0 --check the error count for the errors ROLLBACK TRAN --RollBack in case of Error --to raise the error message when there is an issue. Declare the variables and se the values for them DECLARE @Er...
