Rollup all your tasks in SharePoint with Reporting Services!

Rollup all your tasks in SharePoint with Reporting Services!

Microsoft SQL Server Reporting services allows on to report on xml sources, which means one can report on SharePoint lists. So by creating reports based on your SharePoint lists with Report designer, you can now quickly view and drill through to important tasks or other items. The one issue in the past has been making the report designer SharePoint aware so that one can report on only tasks in your current site or those below. MacroView has now created a SharePoint aware web part that knows what site you are at so that your reports can take this site parameter and filter the information as required. One application of this is a rollup report showing all tasks in all sites for which you are assigned. You can then drill through and edit you tasks easily even though you might have many projects for which there are separate sites and tasks.
