Interesting Dynamics CRM 3.0 Reporting Issue

Posted on March 1st, 2006 mitch  Print No comments

So this afternoon, as we're going our customer a demo of their system ( of course ), we noticed that two of our reports had magically disconnected themselves from their data sources.

I have no idea how this happened, but when you ran the report, you got an SRS error mentioning an invalid the data source or something.

Editing the reports via http://crm/reports (report, properties, data sources ) allowed me to reconnect the report to a pre-defined, shared system datasource and things were back to normal.

What I find alarming is the fact that these two reports have not been touched since Feb 23rd and we've made no configuration changes regarding reporting services or anything.

Anyway, if this happens to you, just go reset the data source connection and you should be back in business.

Oh, this is SRS 2000.

Later, Mitch
