Unable to create new subscription in Management Studio


Unable to create new subscription in Management Studio forty6and2 NO[at]SPAM hotmail.co.uk

sql server reporting services: Hi

I have a strange problem with creating subscriptions for my reports. I
can create them in Report Manager, but when I right click the
subscriptions folder in the report in Mangement Studio, "New
Subscription" is greyed out. The data source uses stored credentials.
To further add to the confusion, one report DOES allow me to create
subscriptions in Management Studio, and this uses the same data source
as the others which don't allow subscriptions.

Any ideas what could be causing this?

Just guessing but could it be the account you are signing into Mangement
Studio vs the account you are using accessing the web site (Report Manager).

That was the only thing that I had no clue on.

One other thing, I do not think that the data source has anything to do with
the creation of the subscription.

Compare who the anonymous account (Maybe: IUSR_COMPUTERNAME) rights to you
login into Management Studio.

This is what we thought too, since we are using an anonymoust account
to connect to the Reports Server and in Management Studio we connect
to the Server using Windows Authentication. However, this doesn't
explain why for one report we are able to create subscriptions in
SSMS, and for others we cannot, even though they are using the same
data source.

Thanks for the help Reeves. We discovered what the problem was. We had
a field on the reports displaying the name of the user who ran the
report (from the the global variable User). This was preventing us
from creating a subscription to the reports. Once we removed it, we
could create subscriptions to them.

Also, check the credentials on the datasource : if these are using integrated windows security, I have found that the new subscription and new data driven subscription options are greyed out. Using stored credentials works fine.
