RDL Insert In Report Server

Hi Support Team,
Q 1) Why did whenever i add to create new report on my report server .. when chose to select RDL to be uploaded into the report server, the server request me to select another Data Source from the same Report Server before it save my new report into the Server but i already declare my Data Source is from shared Data Source which is referring to same server. At the end every reports of mine will have redundant Data Source Names.
Q 2) How could i create New Dataset directly from Report Server without asking to uploading RSD format file.
Thank You Very Much,
Best Regards,

Hi Hidzir,   
  
Thanks for contacting Syncfusion Support.   
  
Please find the responses for your queries below.

At the end every reports of mine will have redundant Data Source Names.   
Syncfusion Report Server runs both reports, created from Syncfusion Report Designer(WPF) and SSRS. These reports might contain data sources obtained from any one of them. So, when a user uploads a report to the Report Server, it ask for the data source which the user can create at that time itself or select from the already hosted one.   
  
This process will not add any new data sources to the Report Server and thus does not bring any redundancy. Report Server only links the reports with the data sources.   
Q 2) How could i create New Dataset directly from Report Server without asking to uploading RSD format file.   
Report Server does not have a support to create Dataset and only have support to create Data Sources.   
  
Datasets can be created in the Report Designer alone for now. However, to bridge the gap between the Server and Client applications, we are working in the Syncfusion Web Report Designer which will be shipped along with the Report Server and is web based.   
  
Datasets can be created in the Syncfusion Web Report Designer and it is currently in plan to release soon.
