How to set up reporting services to have up-to-date cube data whenever report opened


How to set up reporting services to have up-to-date cube data whenever report opened j.murray

sql server reporting services:
Hi, at work I have set up reporting services with analysis services
providing cube data. I have created a cube and deployed it to reporting
services. What I want to know is how do i guarantee that when an executive
opens up the report, they will get the latest data from the SQL database? I
have installed/created everything with defaults, including the reports and
their deployment via visual studio to reporting services.

Here I am guessing that when a report is opened that reporting services
connects to analysis services (which interacts with sql server whatever way)
to get the latest update of data within the report? I am just a little
concerned because I had a previous report set up and no matter how i tried
to get it to update data, it just couldnt. I had to redeploy the solution
from VS to reporting services.

Any help most appreciated!
cheers

The default deployment will always get you the latest data... However if you
make a change to the report onthe reporting server, that change will NOT be
overridden by redeploying...

Perhaps you set the cache time on the report in Report Manager... That means
that data will be re-used without re-querying for 60 minutes... Redeploying
the report will NOT change this and many other settings... You would have to
either delete and redeploy or change the setting in Report Manager..

However, for the standard default deploy of a new report, no caching is used..
