In my case I want to display a chart in an Engagement Plan entity. This Engagement Plan is associated with an Account (N:1). The Account has 1:N relationships with Production History and Contract History entities that have information about commodity and tonnes produced. I want that chart to be shown on the Engagement Plan form. The parameters for this chart will be the Account Id and the Season Id located on the form.
The Steps:
- Create a custom SSRS Report to display this chart, taking @CRM_AccountId and @CRM_SeasonId as parameters.
- Insert an IFRAME on the form and give dummy Url. Also uncheck 'Restrict Cross Site Scripting' to allow cross scripting between servers.
- Create a javascript that is triggered in Form_OnLoad, Account_OnChange, and Season_OnChange:
The method for the form OnLoad is 'Form_onload'
The method for the field Onchange is 'loadChart'
Hope this helps,
Andreas

Thanks for this post it helped me to load an ssrs report into an iframe on a form.
ReplyAndreas,
ReplyIn sample above, you are building the url for the report. The id= value is a specific guid. What is guid? Wouldn't it need to be dynamically set?
var url = serverUrl + "/crmreports/viewer/viewer.aspx?action=filter&helpID=CommodityTonnes.rdl&id=%7bB135D3F7-65C1-E011-A653-005056A10003%7d";

Hi Todd,
ReplyThe guid is the Id of the report. You can find the id by opening the report record and hit F11 (then look in the address bar).
P.S:
You can also create a function to retrieve the id if you want (maybe by report name) using fetchXml. It's up to you :)

I have done all that but am using the filtered views and the reprot is asking for the user name and password. How do I get around that?

ReplyHi Julie,
Replyusing filtered views in the report should be fine and is the normal way of creating reports. The issue must be related to a different cause.
Are you able to open the report by going to the crm reportviewer url itself? i.e. "/crmreports/viewer/viewer.aspx?action=filter&helpID=..."
I noticed you used "p:[parameter]=[value]" in your url to pass a parameter into your report via url. I am looking for other commands to hide the toolbar and parameter pane.
ReplyWhere did you find out about "p:" and do you know where I can find the commands to hide the toolbar and parameter pane via URL?
Thanks!
Hey,
ReplyPretty sure I've read about the "p:" on the web as many people have been using this.
Unfortunately the viewer.aspx doesn't support parameter to hide the toolbar. You might have to create custom aspx page for this one:
