Conditional Format For Clls In Matrix For Values Not Exist In The Db
Nov 29, 2007
Hi,
I'm calculating matrix including totals in the database.
I would like to set a background color for all total cells.
For total cells with now dat in database I fail to put codiotional formating.
I use the following code:
=iif(Fields!Col1Desc.Value="Total", "#60759b", "Transparent")
For cells under "Total" columns that do not got any db value I got color "Transparent" and not "#60759b"
How do I recognize to which column or row a cell belong in a matrix even if it not a value that come from db but empty one?
for example, note the background color of the cell of Male, Total and 2006
I'm having trouble inserting a conditional format to a specific column.
e.g.: Matrix within the rows the "weeks" (1, 2, 3, ... , 52), and in the column a "lastyear revenu", "thisyear revenue" and a difference between them, "delta %", in percent grouped by the stores. I added a subtotal to it so I get in the latest column the "total lastyear revenue", the "total thisyear revenue" and a difference between them in percent for all stores, "total delta %", for a specific week.
Problem: I want to colour the "delta %" column green when it is greater then the "total delta %" value.
I thougt this would be quite easy, but it really is a pain in the *** because, in the background expression dialog box, I can't refer to the subtotal cells ...
I'll try to make this simple. I'm on SSRS 2005 and I have a report with a matrix object that has one row group and one column group. I need to switch the number format only for values where the column group has a specific value.
For example, here are the records in the table: Customer, Type, Amount Customer1, Revenue, -100 Customer2, Cost, 60 Customer1, Revenue, -200 Customer2, Cost, 125
By default the matrix object shows the following (the total comes from the standard subtotal on the column group): Revenue Cost Total Customer1 -100 60 -40 Customer2 -200 125 -75
But the users need the report to look like this, with all positives (why, oh why?! ): Revenue Cost Total Customer1 100 60 40 Customer2 200 125 75
I was able to use the inscope function to switch the signs of the Total numbers. But now I need to switch the signs of the Revenue column from negative to positive (and vice versa), without affecting the signs of the Cost column. It's strange to me because I CAN switch the signs for a specific row group (changing Customer1's number format, without affecting Customer2's format) using something like this:
But a similar expression specifying a column group value does not work, because the report seemingly doesn't recognize the value of the column group at all no matter what I do:
The other reason why this is strange is that I've done drill-through reports off of matrix objects where specific column group values (the ones clicked on) can be passed into the drill-through report parameters. So it recognizes the column group values upon drill-through, but not for formatting?
How else can I do this? I must be missing something here. Thanks.
Let's say I have raw data that looks something like this
Fruit_name status count apples Fresh 5 apples rotten 3 pears Fresh 3 pears rotten 2
and I was to matrix it and group on fruit_name and add a subtotal to count. In that subtotal, without changing what was displayed in the details number, could I conditionaly only show a sum of fresh fruit? Example below
I am creating a report that the requirements need different background colors based on the row or column as shown below:

Rolling 12 Month Average 477 2.9 3.3' I can get the row colors to work great with an expression, but when I try to add the gray column with conditional formatting for the Resident's Overall Satisfaction Rating question, it clobbers my row formatting. I am thinking that I will have to do some gnarly expression in each of the rows and columns using the InScope function. Does that sound about right, or is there an easier way?
I am using matrix in my report with calculated fields, for example I have 3 columns : Actual amount, Budget and Variance. Variance should be in Red if it is negative. I can set up an expression to change the color on the row level, but not in Subtotal ot Total row. I cannot use sum of Fields! values, because Budget amount is also calculated field based on the "Category" value which is columns group on the matrix.
So anyway, if I am trying to reference ReportItems!Variance.Value in Subtotal Level, it gives me an error about group scope.
How can I access the cells values in subtotal and total group levels? If anybody knows any tricks for this fairly simple task?
How to count the number of values that exist in a row based on the values from an array of numbers. Basically the the array of numbers I want to look for are in row 1 of table [test 1] and I want to search for them and count the "out of" in table [test 2]. Excuse me for not using the easiest way to convey my question below. I guess in short I have 10 numbers and like to find how many of those numbers exist in each row. short example:
I've been having a problem getting the font-color right on a matrix subtotal. I searched around but could not find anything else describing the issue I'm having. Basically, the problem is stated as such:
IF a matrix subtotal row has conditional coloring based on the data, THEN changes to the subtotal format via "the green arrow" like bordercolor, backgroundcolor, fontstyle, etc, override the conditional formatting.
This only happens when the report is deployed and viewed in a browser. In Visual Studio, the formatting appears as one would expect.
It also only happens when the color is determined conditionally. If the color is explicitly stated, the subtotal format behaves.
Heres a better example:
I was making a matrix with a subtotal that has the classic "red color when the revenue amount is negative" situation:
All data cells, whether in subtotal or datasection, would be red if the revenue amount was less then zero. At this point, the matrix was almost newly created and this was the *only* formatting applied so far.
Next, I changed the subtotal formating with the green arrow, giving the total and subtotal cells a grey background.
At this point, the report looks fine in the Visual Studio Preview. A negative subtotal is still red. But, when deployed and accessed via IE, the subtotals are black (default) no matter what.
Is this a known issue?? It seems like a bug to me, not a feauture, for at least a couple reasons:
It only happens in a deployed browser, not the designer. It only happens w/ conditional formatingThe version I'm using is 9.00.3215.00. I also checked on another box w/ version 9.00.3054.00 and it looks like the same problem.
For now, I'm working around it by keeping the subtotal formatting absolutely clean. All formating done in the subtotal is done through =IIF( INSCOPE("...") , , ) checks. This is annoying because the matrix I'm working on isn't anywhere near as simple as the example above, it has crazy row and column groupings with numerous subtotals and pre-existing conditional border/background/color formats. Any ideas?
I have a report that has a Parameter called "LevelOfDetail" This has 2 possible values "Summary, Detail, or Combined".
The report has a Summary Section and a subreport that holds the details. WIthin the summary section is a Matrix (a list of all properties and some values)
If they choose to see the details, the matrix in the details section will show a break out of all this information summarized in the summary section.
The Details Matrix is set to have a page break at the beginning and end of the top level group.
I have a list control on the summary page that contains the details subreport and passes the appropriate parameter.
Everything works the way I want until I try to set visibility on sub report.
Once I set the conditional visibility of the report objects (based on the Level of Detail parameter) the page breaks are not recognized.
This is important as the user will never print the report, but will be downloading to Excel.
If the page breaks work correctly, each page is assigned a different worksheet in their downloaded workbook.
I have a matrix report with 2 column SaleAmount and ProfitAmounts by Month like
Sale Profit Dealer 5/1/2007 6/1/2007 7/1/2007 5/1/2007 6/1/2007 7/1/2007 A 100 200 300 20 25 15 B 200 250 50 30 45 19
how can i do following 3 things
1)Add Total column for Sale and Average column for Profit 2)Sort report by lastMonth of Sale (here 7/1/2007) High to low 3)if last month of sale(here 7/1/2007) is less than second last month here (6/1/2007) whole row should be red

Hi, It looks like by default the subtotal number inherits the number format from the main column. Is there a way to override it? In my case I am displaying percents with a decimal point in a column and sometimes the total comes out to 99.9% instead of 100%. I just want to round of the total to alway show 100%. Is there a way to do it?
I am sure I'm being dumb here but I am trying to deploy an assembly with external_access.
I have signed the assembly using the <new> option in the project properties.
When I then try and create the Key I get the above error using the code below.

I am using a matrix control in a report containing 2 subreports. The matrix control is present in one of the subreports. When I export the full report into the PDF,if the matrix are rendered in a single page, the report is fine and there are no blank pages. But when the number of columns exceeds the first page and moves into the second page then there are 3 blank pages in the report for every page with content. The number of blank pages after each page with content is equal to the number of times the matrix would scroll into a new page.
This problem occurs only when I try to generate the whole report in PDF. No blank pages appear when I render subreports into PDFs individually.
I have a matrix that will pull out the current quarters sales figures. I want to change the color of the subtotal font ONLY when we are in the current period. I have a boolean field in the matrix report that is true when it is the current month.
For example, at the end of last month it displays January, February and March figures. I want the sub total to display the totals for January and February in white, whilst the totals for March are Yellow.
Hello, I am attempting to modify an existing matrix report into something a bit more diverse and aesthetically appealing to our users. The problem is changing the size of columns, rows, border types, etc. So far I have not yet been able to locate any custom code samples that refer to ways of changing the overall appearance and properties of the matrix. I am not concerned with the data but in some cases a column's width will need to be larger or smaller based on the size of the data inside it. The strings can range from 3 characters to 15 or more and the number of columns can be just as dynamic in number. If that happens I need to shrink or expand a column to match.
I am familiar with using custom code just not in using it to access the matrix properties.
My colleague is working on bulk insert task from SSIS and since the data file does not contain any valid delimeter one of the suggestion he got is to use a file format to address the issue. Thus a bcp command is used to generate the format file, as per below.
The file file format was generated, from the data flow we added the BULK INSERT task and set the properties accordingly including the File Format and location of the file. Upon running the task itself we encountered the error as per below.
[Bulk Insert Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Cannot bulk load. The file "C:HFISTAT.fmt" does not exist.".
Progress: The Bulk Insert task is completed. - 100 percent complete
Task Bulk Insert Task failed
Have checked the file and it is in C: drive and it is not protected or read-only. Validated the output file and it is as per expected. Any help would be appreciated very much.
I have a matrix report and as per the requirement, I must format the row colors. First row must be no color and second row must be light blue. This color formatting would repeat for remaining rows in the matrix. I tried to select the entire row in the matrix, selected "Background Color" option and in "Expression" window, I entered "=IIf(RowNumber(nothing) MOD 2, "White","LightBlue")".This resulted in the color formatting of columns in the matrix report.
I have a data flow task and trying to transform datas OLTP to STG db and i have lookup tables.
I do lookuping like this
first a lookup that lookup my table with connected input column parameter
second a derived column is connected to lookup's error output for when lookup can't find the value and this derived column returned "0" or "-1" this means that lookuped value can't find and insert this value to my table
third a union that union lookup and derived column
i want to ask this is there any different solution for doing this, because if i more than 5 or 6 lookup in my ssis package i add all of them derived columns and unions and when i change something i have to change or correct the unions step by step.
I am somewhat new to SRS. I am creatnig a report containing a Matrix. I did this because there are one or more columns included in the data set. I would like to add totals to both the rows and columns.
Here is data samples of the matrix: Columns: C1, C2, C3... Rows: R1, R2, R3, ... There is a total making up the data section and looks like this (I will just use Valx for the value in the data section):
C1 C2 C3 .... R1 Val1 Val2 Val3
R2 Val4 Val5 Val6 R3 Val7... .... . . .
I would like to total each column and have a summary at the bottom (for the C1 this would contain Val1+Val4+Val7) and also like to have an extra column containing totals for each row (for the R1 this would contain Val1+Val2+Val3...).
Is there a way to do this? Am I missing something obvious?
Thank you for any help, it is very apprecaited. Eric
I have an issue in a group for a Matrix report I have created. Currently if a field in a table has null values in it, the grouping does not show in the matrix. Is there a way to force a group to show if there are Null values? I figure there must be a property to toggle on/off that would take care of this but I cannot seem to find it.
I have a matrix report, which has one row group and one column group. The value is a Count of some field coming from the dataset. So the difficulties that I'm having is that when I click on zero(i.e. 0) values from the main report, the detail report doesn't ran and it through an error message : The 'X' parameter is missing a value. When the value is positive(other than zero) then the detail report works fine.
I need to get all distinct values from 10 different tables that exist in the field [favoritesport] And each table holds close to 50K records so I am looking at 500,000 records to get distinct values for. Would the fastest, less intrusive way of achieving this be to just create a UNION ALL so run
Select Distinct([favoritesport]) from table1 Union Select Distinct([favoritesport]) from table2 Union Select Distinct([favoritesport]) from table3 etc etc etc
I have a matrix which looks as follows: ----- Actuals | Budget ItemA 20 | 50 ItemB 45 | 30 ItemC 20 | 15
I would like to add a column with the difference between actuals and budget. Actuals/budget is 1 group in the matrix being the dimensionname. How can I calculate the difference (subtract actuals and budget), because if I just use the subtotal function it adds both totals together and I need to have the difference between them?
