Error while setting server report parameters. Error message: The permissions granted to user 'Domain\User' are insufficient for performing this operation. (rsAccessDenied)

Solution : This is nothing but the Permission issue which we have to assign to the user.

Open the Report Manager website for the Reporting Services instance. By default, the URL is http://[SSRSServerName]:80/Reports

For SSRS server name go to : System administration > Setup > business intelligence > Reporting services > Report Server > 

in reporting server information Tab you will get the server name

Step 1 : Click on Dynamics ax folder 

Step 2 : Click on Folder Settings.

Step 3 :  Click on Security.

Step 4 :  Click on New Role Assignment.

Step 5 : Enter the Active Directory user name or group to assign to the DynamicsAXBrowser role.

Step 6  : Select the DynamicsAXBrowser role.

I hope Now you can access ssrs reports. 

SSRS – Create child group in same column below parent

A few months ago I was developing a report and wanted a child group in the same column below its parent.  I did tried quite a few combinations of inserting and deleting of groups, rows and columns until I finally found the right way to do it.

This week I wanted a similar report and decided to write down the steps to accomplish that, otherwise simple task.  The example was made in SQL Server Reporting Services 2008 R2.

We start by creating the parent group:

Then we create the child group:

In the parent insert row inside the group above:

This is how it will look like after creating the row inside above group:

Drag and drop to move the parent group field above the child field in the next column:

Delete the, now empty, column where the parent field previously was:

You’re done!  The child group is now below its parent:

The contoso demo data for Dynamics Ax 2012 R3 is different from previous version.we used .dat file to load demo data in previous versions. Demo data is available in .exe file.
i.e DynamicsAX2012R3DemoData.exe available in partner Resource.

 https://mbs.microsoft.com/partnersource/northamerica/deployment/downloads/product-releases/MSDYAX2012R3Release#DownloadProductandRelatedTools

To import this demo data we need  Test Data transfer Tool is available on partner resource.

Go on following link

https://informationsource.dynamics.com//RFPServicesOnline/Rfpservicesonline.aspx?ToolDocName=Microsoft+Dynamics+AX+2012+Test+Data+Transfer+Tool+(Beta)%7cQJ4JEM76642V-8-1465

OR

Download the demo data and Test Data Transfer Tool (beta)

1. Download the AX 2012 R3 demo data from the Release Page on PartnerSource.
2. Extract the demo data from the package to the database server that hosts the AX 2012 R3 business database for your environment.
3. Download the Test Data Transfer Tool (beta) tool installer from the Downloadable tools section of Microsoft Dynamics Lifecycle Services, and install it on the database server that hosts the AX 2012 R3 business database for your environment.
4. Verify that you have appropriate permissions to import data. You must have read access to the location where the demo data is stored, and in SQL Server Management Studio, permission to execute SELECT statements and BULK INSERT statements. For more information, see Install the Test Data Transfer Tool (beta) for Microsoft Dynamics AX.

To import demo data we need to do the following steps.

Step 1:

• Extract the demo data files from DynamicsAX2012R3DemoData.exe to a specific location.

• The output folder will contain the files of following extension types:

1. .OUT—– data file that contains metadata for AX transactional database
2. .OutModel —- data file that contain metadata for AX model database
3. .XML —- data file that contains AX table data.

Step 2:

 Run the Test Data Transfer Tool.Exe file to install the utility.

• After successful installation, the folder will look like as shown below:

Step 3 :

• Open AX client and import the .XPO named (MetaDataXMLGenerator.Xpo)

• On successful import a job will be created as shown below:

Step 4:

• Run the job <MetadataXMLGenerator(usr)>, a  meta data file will be generated and the path will be displayed in the infolog as shown in the snapshot below:

Step 5:

Copy the metadata file from the above path and paste it in [lists] folder (where Test Data Transfer Tool has been extracted). If the file already exists, then overwrite the file.

Step 6 :

Stop MS Dynamics AX service.

Step 7 :

Open command prompt using administrator and navigate to the path where the Test Data Transfer Tool is extracted).

Step 8:

• Run the following command:

Dp.exe Import “C:\R3DemoData\DynamicsAXR3DemoData” DynamicsAXR3

C:\R3DemoData\DynamicsAXR3DemoData—— update the path (Demo Data extraced path)

DynamicsAXR3—— provide the actual database name.(Ax DB Name)

Step 9 : you need to install Test data transfer tool on SQL server and run DP command on same server. 

in case of standalone you will get the following screen.

If we enter ‘Y’, then following screen will open up describing the count for importing the table data and Error (if they come up)

• The process may take hours depending upon machine configuration.
• On successful import, start ax services again , Open AX client and data will show up.
