Bi Publisher date format not working in RTF template - sql

I am using xdoxslt:sysdate('DD-Mon-YY') at the bottom of report in footer section.
whenever report runs - it generates around 5-8 pages as per data and in every page at the footer i want see sysdate.
At 1st page date comes fine like 15-Sep-17 but at 2nd page it is coming incorrect 12/02/7.
Did anyone faced this issue. Please help.

There's a built in word/rtf function for the date that you could use.
Ribbon -> Insert -> Date & Time
There's also a function to have a different footer on first page. Make sure you don't have that checked.
When in the footer, should show "Design" in the ribbon, and in the Options, there's a "Different First Page"

Exporting the SSRS Report in pdf format is having blank page issues

In SSRS Report 2016, I have 2 tablixes. The 2nd tablix contains only 4 columns.
When I preview the report, It comes perfectly in one page but when I export the report in PDF format or click on the Print Layout button in the report, the whole 2nd table/tablix moves to the next page.
In my case, the sum (Body Width + Left margin + Right margin) is less than the resulting page width. I set keep_together property to false but the 2nd table keeps rendering on the new page. If the 2nd table has less content then it displays below the first table on the same page and if the content is a little bit large then the whole table shifted to the next page and if the content is too big then it starts displays on the 1st page below the first table on the same page and continues on next pages with the remaining content. All the thing is happening when I am exporting report in PDF format, not on report preview.
Any solution for this?
Do you have dynamic col grouping or hidden textboxes ? in this case you need to make sure that when all the col visible on the reports it must have sum of width and margins less than the reports width.
Cross check the report width from properties window sometimes it contains white spaces because of which this happens.
Check whether you have added a page break after the tablix. If you did, and if there is nothing else to show after the tablix, then it will display blank on the next page.
Another possible reason that may bring blank page is that there exists large white space between tablix and page footer.
Please try these points once. Hope it resolve your issue.

Smartforms: form has wrong page format

SAP 730 Final Release Build 1429747 Patch Level 5
I am modifying a purchase order form; the form has a First and Next page; I added a Secondary window named 'Buyer' to both pages; before I add any elements, when I print preview the form I get the error
Form BUYER has wrong page format.
Message no. SSFCOMPOSER026
The Page Format in Form Attributes is LETTER; there is no different page format for this window.
I've read that this can be the result of some text areas containing too much text, however this window has no elements (yet).
Anyone run in to this issue before? Many thanks. I can post more info if needed.
Form TXT_CONTACT has wrong page format.
Message no. SSFCOMPOSER026
Diagnosis
Form TXT_CONTACT has a different page format than the forms output previously but has been added to the same spool request.
System Response
Form TXT_CONTACT ist not processed.
Procedure
While forms are formatted (FM SSFCOMP_OPEN to FM SSFCOMP_CLOSE), the page format must not be changed. All forms within one spool request must have the same page format.
The first page format used, in this case paper format , is applicable to all subsequent forms.

SSRS not displaying data but displays data when query runned in tsql

I have a SSRS report that do not display data in preview mode. However, when I run the same query in SQL Server 2008 R2 I can retrieve the results
What could cause this?
I also used Set FMTOnly to off because I use temptables.
if you use "SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio" not "Report Builder" then on reporting services (where is you table):
click View -> Properties Window (or just press F4)
select the tablix
on properties window find "General" and in the "DataSetName" choose your "Dataset"
On tablix fields set values from your "DataSets"
Or just do like here(from 8:50): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HM_dquiikBA
The Best solutio
Select the entire row and change the font to arial or any other font other than segoe UI
default font
default font
no display in preview
no display in preview
changed font first row
changed font first row
first row is displayed in preview

A workaround should be:
1) Select the parameters and click on View Report (you will not see nothing or some cells will display content and some not)
2) Click on Print Layout (next to the printer)
You will be able to see content. If you have expand/collapse functionality and then you will not be able to interact with the UI.
I faced similar issues. If you remove/delete the parameter, open the dataset definition and refresh the fields, the parameter should be recreated. Then run the report. It worked for me.

SSRS Report Builder - Only Show Header On First Page (With Page Numbers)

So I am running into the problem where my report header is being displayed on every page, but I only want to display it on the first page. The solution that people on this forum have given is to just put the header in the main content. The problem with this is that my header shows the page number + total pages (i.e. Page 1 of 3 pages). I cannot move my header to the body because I will lose access the page numbers. For some reason, Report Builder will only allow you to have access to the page numbers via the header. Does anyone have any solution to this problem?
Write an expression to hide the textboxes that hold the header information.
The expression would look like this:
=iif(Globals!PageNumber = 1, FALSE, TRUE)
To get to the expression property:
right-click text box >> text box properties >> visibility >> select "Show or hide based on expression" >> insert expression above
cheers
I had the same issue, where I only wanted the header to show on the first page. The solution I came up with was to stick all of my objects from the header into a rectangle, so it was now acting as a container. I then placed that container into the body. In the report properties, in the code section, I borrowed from this post Access Page number in report body In SSRS to create functions, which would allow me to pull the page numbers into the body section. Then in my rectangle/container, I set the visibility property to =code.PageNumber>1. I hope this helps!
I did this, just to make it easier the two functions you want to add to the Report that were linked above are,...
Function PageNumber() As String
Return Me.Report.Globals!PageNumber
End Function
Function TotalPages() As String
Return Me.Report.Globals!TotalPages
End Function
