Overview
This course is all about creating reports in SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS). No prior knowledge is needed, but some knowledge of T-SQL would be useful.
We will download a version of SQL Server which includes SSRS – for free. We’ll also download a database called AdventureWorks, which we will use in our reports.
By the end of this course, you should be confident in creating your own reports in SSRS.
Completing this course will help you:
- Select report components (matrix, table, chart and other data visualisation component),
- Identify the data source and parameters,
- Format colours, dates and numbers;
- Implement headers and footers, matrices, tables, chart, images, indicators, maps and groupings in reports
- Create drilldown reports and drillthrough reports
- Add interactive sorting
- Investigate parameters, including multi-value parameters, and create dynamic reports
- Add actions (jump to report and URL);
Who is the course for?
This course is for you if you want to know how to create reports in SSRS.
No prior experience with T-SQL is required, although the more knowledge you have it, the better.
Learning Path
The basics presented are: how to install SQL Server, and how to create and drop tables.
We then try to create a more advanced table, but find that we need to know more about data types – so we go into some detail about data types and data functions, the foundation of T-SQL.
