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...

SSRS Reports - How to Create Static Rows in a Matrix in SSRS?

Today one of my team members asked me about how to create a matrix in which the rows will remain static/constant and the column group will grow as per the data available. SQL Server Reporting Services 1. Create a data set to get the required data for the matrix. 2. Drag a matrix object on the report body. 3. Add the number of required rows to outside the row group  (This is the main trick for creating the static rows in the matrix) 4. Delete the row group detail row from the matrix 5. Add the labels to the row lines headers, add the column group values and data values in the matrix 6. Run the Report and your Matrix is ready with Static Rows! Happy learning!!!
