report designer don`t find all fields

hi,

i`m using report designer to create reports on my self-created work-items. but i did not find all fields and types in the selection in the report designer.

i create a new report project. connect to the ms sql server 2005 analysis service. use the following conneciton properties:

server-name: atvie-tfs01
database-name: TFSWarehouse

i tested the connection and the connection is ok.

in the query builder i choose the "team system" cube.

and then i get the first problem. i added work item - System.WorkItemType to a filter with "Add to filter".

in the filter i want to choose in the filter expression one of my newly created work-items. one is called ReleaseItem. but it is not available in the drop-down! but i imported already this work-item to the tfs and i already created a project which uses this work-item. so i have expected that it would be in the data-cube.

furthermore i have updated the data-cube with the controller service web-service:
http://localhost:8080/Warehouse/v1.0/WarehouseController.asmx

another problem is i did not find all fields that i have defined in my work-items. for example i did not find the following type:

<FIELD name="Typ" refname="pweb.pm.typ" type="String" reportable="dimension">
<REQUIRED/>
<ALLOWEDVALUES>
<GLOBALLIST name="ReqTypeListe" />
</ALLOWEDVALUES>
</FIELD>

i hope you understand what i mean and can help me!

and furthermore i looked into the sql server management studio. browsed there the data-cube Team System and searched for some data. and i don`t find there data about a project which i created yesterday. it is called test1-pweb. no specific work-items show up. for example i created new work-items called ReleaseItem, Run or ChangeRequest. But they are not shown up in the drop-down of Work Item.Work Item Type. but i see "old" work-items that i have created. for example Runv01. But not the newly created Work-Item "Run".

so what can i do?

and if i run the "related work-items" report, the report doesnt show any results. but the warehouse is up to date and i related work-items with the links section.

furthermore when i view the related work items report there is a drop down labeled with "Work Item Type". In this drop-down i can`t choose the work-items of my project. but the import of the process template works fine and i`m able to create work-items and save them.

queries work without problem. so the problem is the data is not transfered to the cube. but what can be the problem if the process template with the work-items is uploaded successfully and creating work-items is no problem!?

some hints? we want to use tfs in a first productive test-cycle. but without reports it is not a good idea!

Hi Thomas

It looks like you've tried a bunch of things already. Let's first see if the work item field that you have created has made it to the warehouse.

1) My understanding is that you modified the process template to create a work item type called "Run" (this is analogous to "Bug" or "Task" that TFS ships with). In "Run" you have a work item field called "Typ" . Then you created a team project that uses this work item type. And you created "Run" work items. Is my understanding correct?

2) It sounds like if my undesrtanding in (1) is correct, then if the warehouse has processed and picked up your changes, then your work items should be showing up in the cube. Please check the event log on the Application Tier to see if there are any warnings/errors from the source TfsWarehouse.

3) On the application tier, process the warehouse. Navigate to http://localhost:8080/Warehouse/v1.0/warehousecontroller.asmx and choose "Run". Click "Invoke".

4) When processing is finished, check the event log again. You can check if processing is finished by navigating to http://localhost:8080/Warehouse/v1.0/warehousecontroller.asmx and choosing "GetWarehouseStatus". Click "Invoke". It should return "Idle" when it's done.

5) if there are no warnings/errors, then using Sql Server Management Studio, browse the relational warehouse to see if this item is there: [TfsWarehouse].[dbo].[Work Item].[pweb.pm.typ] <- this is your new work item field

Browse the cube to see if these items are there:

[Team System].[Work Item].Work Item.Typ

[Team System].[Related Work Item].Work Item.Typ

Please let me know how that goes.

hi mauli,

your assumptions are almost correct. i created a process template with 5 new work-items. and i created a project based on the new process template.

i executed the steps 3 +4 and checked the application error logs. and there i found a lot of errors :-) error d) happened before executing steps 3+4

so i hope you can help me. i don`t know what i can do!

i dont know if it is the root of all evil ;-) but i know that i have to change the AdminConnection\TCP protocol in the SQL instance SQLEXPRESS. the warning explained above tells me that they are not correct.

the settings in the sql server configuration manager are like the following:

-shared memory: enabled
- named pipes: enabled
- tcp/ ip : enabled
- via: disabled

i tried to change these settings but it doesn`t help and i do get the warning message in the logs.

you have to install work-station components of the sql server 2005. then you can call report designer in visual studio with creating a new 'business intelligence project" project
