When working with Microsoft’s Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDs) and Dynamics CRM Online and large datasets you may often come across the following error when trying to preview reports through BIDs (Dataset being Dynamics Online):

This is caused by paging issues within BIDs and can simply be solved by uploading and running the report through Dynamics online itself.

A ‘quick’ workaround is to parameterise your report and filter the dataset then build your report and get a smaller version working, then remove the parameter for the full version. Once that works, upload and test again.

Cheers,

Jason.
