    Hi everyone,

     

    when my team is trying to upload one of the reports we created but we are geting this error

    "The Value expression for the textbox ‘Severity’ refers to the field ‘Microsoft_VSTS_Common_Severity’. Report item expressions can only refer to fields within the current data set scope or, if inside an aggregate, the specified data set scope. (rsFieldReference) Get Online Help "

     

    any idea how to solve this problem?

    thanks

     Answer

    Is the datasource that the report points to deployed?

    You can view the data source configured for the report from:

      http://<Report Server>/Reports
      Select folder with project name
      Select report
      Properties Tab -> Select Data Sources from menu on left

    The out-of-box data sources are TfsReportDS (Warehouse) and TfsOlapReportDS (cube).

  • The report server cannot process the report. The data source connection information has been deleted. (rsInvalidDataSourceReference) "

    I just worked through this particular error myself. (rsInvalidDataSourceReference) I went into the report, Clicked the Properties tab, then the Data Sources row and there was a message on the page that said my Data Source associated with that report had been deleted. Press the Browse button and locate the data source you want to use and select it. Apply the cdhanges and then click the View tab. You shouldn't get the data source error now.
