Cause

Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online uses RDL Sandboxing that prevents reports from uploading or running if they contain code that uses disallowed methods. 

RDL Sandboxing

Reports in Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online run in sandbox mode, and to do this, RDL sandboxing is enabled in Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services. Therefore, certain features might not be available in Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online. For example, custom code in your report definition will not work. For more information, see Enabling and Disabling RDL Sandboxing.

When RDL Sandboxing is enabled, the following features are disabled:
  • Custom code in the <Code> element of a report definition
  • RDL backward compatibility mode for SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services custom report items
  • Named parameters in expressions such as DateFormat or NameSpace
