Hi,

To open the Report :-

• We need report GUID and report associated entity record GUID
• Get report GUID by using ‘Report Name’ using ‘retrieveMultiple’ function
• Prepare URl and open new window

Below are the functions

function openReport (reportName) {

var oDataSetName = “ReportSet”;

var columns = “ReportId”;

var filter = “Name eq ‘” + reportName + “‘”;

retrieveMultiple(oDataSetName, columns, filter, onSuccess);

currReportName = reportName;

}

var currReportName;

function onSuccess (data, textStatus, XmlHttpRequest) {

var serverUrl = Xrm.Page.context.getServerUrl();

if (data && data.length > 0) {

var serverUrl = Xrm.Page.context.getServerUrl();

var id = Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId();

var etc = Xrm.Page.context.getQueryStringParameters().etc;

var callReportId = id.replace(‘{‘, ”).replace(‘}’, ”);

var reportId = data[0].ReportId.replace(‘{‘, ”).replace(‘}’, ”);

var url = serverUrl + “/crmreports/viewer/viewer.aspx?action=run&context=records&helpID=” + currReportName + “.rdl&id=%7b” + reportId + “%7d&records=%7b” + callReportId + “%7d&recordstype=” + etc;

window.open(url, “reportwindow”, “resizable=1,width=950,height=700”);

}

}

function retrieveMultiple(odataSetName, select, filter, successCallback) {

var serverUrl = Xrm.Page.context.getServerUrl();

var ODATA_ENDPOINT = “/XRMServices/2011/OrganizationData.svc”;

var odataUri = serverUrl + ODATA_ENDPOINT + “/” + odataSetName + “?”;

if (select) {

odataUri += “$select=” + select + “&”;

}

if (filter) {

odataUri += “$filter=” + filter;

}

$.ajax({

type: “GET”,

contentType: “application/json; charset=utf-8”,

datatype: “json”,

url: odataUri,

beforeSend: function (XMLHttpRequest) {

XMLHttpRequest.setRequestHeader(“Accept”, “application/json”);

},

success: function (data, textStatus, XmlHttpRequest) {

if (successCallback) {

if (data && data.d && data.d.results) {

successCallback(data.d.results, textStatus, XmlHttpRequest);

}

else if (data && data.d) {

successCallback(data.d, textStatus, XmlHttpRequest);

}

else {

successCallback(data, textStatus, XmlHttpRequest);

}

}

},

error: function (XmlHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown) {

if (XmlHttpRequest && XmlHttpRequest.responseText) {

alert(“Error while retrieval ; Error – ” + XmlHttpRequest.responseText);

}

}

});

}

• Create a new .Jscript  file and copy above functions
• Replace double quotes & single quote symbols with keyboard symbols
• Add the .jscript as web resource
• Add “json” & “jquery” helper scripts as web resources

How Do I call these methods :-

• Assume you have a report named “My Account Report” associated (i.e., Related Record Types) to “Account” entity
• Place a ribbon button on account entity form
• Call openReport(“My Account Report”) function from ribbon button (How to call function from ribbon button)

Hope it helps 🙂
