Hi,

No You can't use both SQL and OLAP data for the same report. Since for a report you will use only one dataset and we cannot combine 2 sources for a single dataset.

The best way you can do is to bring your SQL data into OLAP and use only OLAP as source for the dataset.

Hi ,
Can we create a single report adding some columns from a table and some columns from OLAP cube in SSRS ?Please help.

Yes, you can query a SSAS cube through T-SQL using the OpenQuery.

Take a look at: http://sqlblogcasts.com/blogs/drjohn/archive/2008/09/27/mdx-and-sql-combining-relational-and-multi-dimensional-data-into-one-query-result-set.aspx
