Scheduling a Report Builder Report

  • I have users set up to create and save reports through report builder but they cannot schedule these reports to users via email. There is an error that says.

    "Subscriptions cannot be created because the credentials used to run the report are not stored, or if a linked report, the link is no longer valid"

    The reports are all using a shared data source that has the credentials stored though.

    Any help would be appreciated!

  • If the reports are using share data source I think an admin or content manager needs to create the schedule for your users because these users maybe using viewer permissions which is too low to do anything but viewing reports.

  • I am the admin though and I can't schedule these reports either. I am able to schedule any reports I build in .Net though no problem

  • I have found the reason you cannot schedule the reports in Report Builder it comes with Clickonce deployment option which means you can deploy to all users in your network so it is redundant to allow subscription. But I could be wrong however in 2.0 the Clickonce can also be integrated to Sharepoint so you could look into it. Report Builder 2.0 require SQL Server 2008 license.
