Using SQL Reporting Services in a Custom Sharepoint Dashboard For CRM

I've been playing with making custom dashboard home pages for Microsoft CRM and thought I'd share some useful links. First, here's a document on how to customize the SiteMap to use a Sharepoint page as the default home page in CRM.

Next, take a look at using SQL Reporting Services webparts in SharePoint.

You will need SQL RS SP2.

Hi,

I have installed Microsoft CRM 3.0 in Small Business Server 2003 with SQL Server 2005 for the database. I have encountered the following error when I accessed or clicked on Reports : Reports.config has invalid schema, and could not be loaded.

Also, when I click on Service Calendar, I was prompted with this error message: An unexpected error. An error has occured. For more information, contact your system administrator.

I would appreciate for your feedback and assistance. Thanks in advance.

I'm in the same possition as the person above. I have SQL 2K insted of 2K5, but with the exact same problem. The server reports that the "reportserver Service has been activated". my schema looks like this
"
xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"
viewers
viewer extension="xyz" handler="/Specialviewer.aspx" name="Special Report Type"

viewer extension="abc" name="Client Rendered Report"
viewers
"
except for the Brackets around that tags.
I meen what could be wrong with this.
Regards

A quick update. I cracked the scheduling problem I changed the mscrm site in IIS from ASP.net v 2.0 to 1.1 that solved my problem. Now i just hav to work on the reports issue.
