Is There A Way To Select What Fields To Display On A Report From A Multi-value Parameter?
Feb 19, 2008
I am trying to figure out a way to toggle the visibility of attribute data based on a parameter. Specifically, I have a report that has many columns that an end-user may not want to see, depending on what they are using the report for. I know you can toggle visibilities on individual columns easily enough, however I want the user to be able to select which fields (at the attribute level) they want visible on the report up in the parameters, via a multi-value prompt.
Which suggests that if only one of the two multivalue parameter id is selected display the same (Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Value(0)).
This works fine when i select both the attributes but throws an exception "Index was outside the bounds of the array" when i select only one of the parameters. Can anyone help me with that?
Also i want this report parameter to allow null i.e. if a user does not select anything he should still be able to view the report. In case of regular dropdowns i have added a <Null> value to the existing values and set the default to null. But in case of multi-value, it does not give an option of adding <Null>
I have a report parameter named "Schools" which display a list of schools. For example, Alo elementary school, Balo middle school and Calo high school.
When "Alo elementary" is selected the report only display students from that school along with other assessments data fields. same goes for other schools too. But I want to display different data fields for "Calo high school" when it is selected. It is not currently possilbe becasue I am using the same template for all types of schools. There some fields only should be displayed for "Calo high school" but not for any other type of schools.
I can accomplish this by creating two separate report, one for "Calo high school" and the other for other schools. But I want to accomplish this just by creating one report. So when "Alo elementary school" is selected it displays report with certain fields and when "Calo high school" is selected then it displays same fields as "Alo elementary school" but as well as some other fields too in the report. Is this possible? Need help.
New user here. I've got a report with a couple of multi-value parameters and I'm displaying the selected values on the report using = Join(Parameters!ReportingGroup.Value, ", "). This works properly.
The users now want the report to display "All" if "Select All" is chosen, rather than showing the whole list.
Can anybody help me with this? I'm thinking of using an IIF statement in my expression, but have no idea how to define the condition?
I understand that Multi-Select Parameters are converted behind the scenes to an In Clause when a report is executed. The problem that I have is that my multi-select string parameter is turned into an in claused filled with nvarchar/unicode expressions like:
Where columnName in (N'Value1', N'Value2', N'Value3'...)
This nvarchar / unicode expression takes what is already a fairly slow-performing construct and just drives it into the ground. When I capture my query with Profiler (so I can see the In Clause that is being built), I can run it in Management Studio and see the execution plan. Using N'Values' instead of just 'Value1', 'Value2','Value3' causes the query performance to drop from 40 seconds to two minutes and 40 seconds. It's horrible. How can I make it stop!!!?
Is there any way to force the query-rewriting process in Reporting Services to just use plain-old, varchar text values instead of forcing each value in the list to be converted on the fly to an Nvarchar value like this? The column from which I am pulling values for the parameter and the column that I am filtering are both just plain varchar.
Hello. I have a multi value parameter in my report. I want to know how can I display all of the selected values in this parameter in a text box. Whan I try to use this parameter in a textBox it automaticly take the value: Parameter.param.Value(0) Whice take only the first select value.
How do I display multiple parameter values on report page from a multi-value report parameter. For example, I have a report parameter where users can select multiple attendance codes and I want them displayed at the top of the report after it's run.
Currently, only the first value is showing on the report.
I have a fairly complex report that was given to me that was hard coded for single parameters. There is a dropdown for each market (created from a query in SSRS). The users have to run for each market each week.
Is there a way to use this report as a Sub-report inside a list of a master report and then use a mult-value parameter?
I want this multi-value parameter to build the values for the list and then run the "sub-report" for each value.
Dear All I am trying to populate an OledbDatareader for binding to a ASP datagrid.
For this I use select statement to display combined fields in a datagrid cell. Eg. Select (Field1+ '<br/>' + Field2 + '<br/>' + Field 3) As Address .. and so on. But the problem is if any of the three field is null the combined field 'Address' returns as Null. Please help me to overcome this problem.
I am using RS 2000. I have a multi select parameter where I can select multiple states by separating with a comma. I am trying to figure out how to incorporate an "All" parameter.
Query:
Select [name], city, state, zipcode From Golf inner join charlist_to_table(@State,Default)f on State = f.str
Function:
CREATE FUNCTION charlist_to_table (@list ntext, @delimiter nchar(1) = N',') RETURNS @tbl Table (listpos int IDENTITY(1, 1) NOT NULL, str varchar(4000), nstr nvarchar(2000)) AS BEGIN DECLARE @pos int, @textpos int, @chunklen smallint, @tmpstr nvarchar(4000), @leftover nvarchar(4000), @tmpval nvarchar(4000) SET @textpos = 1 SET @leftover = '' WHILE @textpos <= datalength(@list) / 2 BEGIN SET @chunklen = 4000 - datalength(@leftover) / 2 SET @tmpstr = @leftover + substring(@list, @textpos, @chunklen) SET @textpos = @textpos + @chunklen SET @pos = charindex(@delimiter, @tmpstr) WHILE @pos > 0 BEGIN SET @tmpval = ltrim(rtrim(left(@tmpstr, @pos - 1))) INSERT @tbl (str, nstr) VALUES(@tmpval, @tmpval) SET @tmpstr = substring(@tmpstr, @pos + 1, len(@tmpstr)) SET @pos = charindex(@delimiter, @tmpstr) END SET @leftover = @tmpstr END INSERT @tbl(str, nstr) VALUES (ltrim(rtrim(@leftover)), ltrim(rtrim(@leftover))) RETURN END GO
I have been working on this for quite some time and I can not figure out what I am doing wrong. I have a report filter called ItemFilter and I have declared as a report parameter where the multi value checkbox is checked. The values from this filter are coming from the item table. SO the users drilldown on the filter when they run the report an select the Items that they would like to display info for. I had the following code before in the where
where ([CRONUS International Ltd_$Item].No_ = @itemfilter). This only worked if they selected on item from the list.
I want them to be able to select multiple Items or all. The code above did not work because there were commas separating one item from the other and I was getting an error.
I changed to
whrere
([CRONUS International Ltd_$Item].No_ IN (@itemfilter)).
Now this only returns the first item that I enter on my Itemfilter parameter.
Does anyone have any clue in regards to this ?? I am sure I am using the wrong syntax, but I do not know what to change it too.
Can anyone tell me whether or not it is possible to multi select when you have a parameter that is set as non-querried in order for it to be typed instead of selected.
My users prefer typing the values and selecting more than one. But at the moment I cant give them both..
I'm using SSRS with SSAS cube all in BI all 2005
Please help. I suspect that if it's possible it may just be a syntax thing but I am yet to find it.
Is it possible to pass values from UI to a multi-value parameter in a report and from this report, select values from this multi-value parameter to finally display data?
I have a multi-select parameter for a report, but If I select more than one value the report does not return any data. However, if only one value is selected data for that value is returned. I am using the IN option for the SP parameter.
SELECT Code,Description FROM Product
WHERE Code > 0 AND Description IN (@Description) I am using SP2 on SQL2005, also I do not have the option of Select-All which I expected to be present. Any help would be most appreiated.
In my report I have -among others- a multi-value parameter, populated by a query (so I cannot a priori know the content of the list).
I would like my report to start without any user choice, through default parameters, so what I need is the "select all" choice selected by default. How can I achieve this?
[The only default value I am able to pass to the multi-value parameter is one of the elements populating the list, statically writing it in the "Non-queried" section of "Default values": "From query" option seems not to work for multi-valued]
I have created datasets in te report and in Report parameters clicked the Multi-value Parameter option.
When I run the report, I get all the customer names, when I select one customer report returns correct data. When I select two customers in the list box, the result set is empty. Can anyone guide me on what the error could be?
Thanks

Basically I had 2 paramater which ComputerName and MemberName.
The membername was set as Multi-Value as sets as follow: Label: Value: Exclude Domain Admins Domain Admins Exclude Local Install Local Install
And the query is:
SELECT id, ComputerName, GroupName, MemberName, ScanDate FROM GROUPMEMBERS WITH (NOLOCK) WHERE ComputerCN LIKE '%' + @ComputerName + '%' AND MemberName NOT IN (@MemberName) ORDER BY ComputerName ASC
The prompt is like this: Computer Name [ ] Excluded by [ ]
The issue is in the second prompt I have to select "something" which is I don't want to. I want the user to have this parameter as an optional.
I am trying to display a report parameter value in the report body, but when I run the report it is displaying the actual dimensional value [Product].[Category]&1 instead of the value that user has selected "Bikes". The report is built on Analysis Service data mart.
Environment: SQL Server 2005 - Analysis Services & Reporting Services.
I've tried several things to get my multi-select parameter to take more than one value but it seems to only take the 1st one I input. I've been working on this for days and been trying alternate methods but nothing seems to work. I think my first question is if I'm planning on using a parameter as a multi-select parameter what is the data type I should call that parameter. In my case here, the evt_key is unique and will always be 36 characters. I cant imagine in my lifetime that I'm going to have any more than 20 items in the multiselect. Am I looking over something or any other suggestions? I also attached my sp at the bottom.

I have a rectangle region in a report that contains a graph and a table. I want to display that list region only when the user selects a "Select All" from a multi-select report parameter. This rectangle region is used only to display summary data for All Agencies.
My report also contains a list region with graphs and tables, where I display data for each agency (my detail group), and page-break on each agency.
The problem I am experiencing occurs when using the Expression Builder for the Visibility property for my rectangle and list regions. Since a multi-select parameter is an array, I am forced to select an element in my paramater such as =Parameters!Agency.Value(0). When the user chooses "(Select All)", the first element is the first agency in the list. I don't want that.
How can I get Reporting Services to display a rectangle or list region when "Select All" is chosen, and to hide that rectangle or list region when one or more agencies are chosen from a multi-select parameter?
I have tried using Agency.Label and I've tried other expressions such as Parameters!Agency.Count = Count(Agency.Value), etc, without success.
When I open a report in Report Server it opens up with the parameter area open, showing available paramater lists.
However when I call the same report from another report the parameter area is closed. I would like the default behavior to be the same - an open parameter display area.
Hi, I have report parameter and its values are static lik (ABC, DEF, GHI ) etc. I want to select all as a default for this parameter. How I can do this?
I need to use a non-queried report parameter to filter a dataset for a report.
The dataset column I'm filtering is numeric. The dataset is not a sproc, it's a table in SQL Server that I am querying.
The Non-queried parameter values (Multi-value) are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, >=6.
Selecting the >=6 throws the error: "Error converting data type nvarchar to numeric."
Which sucks.
Because...when I go straight into my dataset I can filter my numeric column with the exact same values (=1 or =3 or >=6) and everything works fine. The error is only raised when I use the @Parameter in the dataset.
I've tried eveything, researched everywhere online and I can't find any guidance anywhere.
I'm building a report and I want to have a parameter that has multiple integer values (not text).I can get it to work just fine if I create a value for each and every numeric value, but I want the user to only see two choices in the dropdown menu (plus the "Select All" that gets automatically created when I tick the box for "Allow multiple values"). How can I make this work?
For example, for my TYPE parameter I'd like something like this: Label: Tigers Value: 2 Label: Lions Bears Oh My Value: 1,3,4,5,6
But I can't seem to set a multiple Value for an integer. And I can't seem to wrap the value with quotes and use Text as the Data Type because it says an error occured during processing (I assume because the field I'm going against is of the Integer format).My query would look something like this (the real one is a lot more complex):
SELECT v_R_System.Netbios_Name0 ,v_GS_COMPUTER_SYSTEM_EXT.PCSystemType0 FROM v_R_System INNER JOIN v_GS_COMPUTER_SYSTEM_EXT ON v_R_System.ResourceID = v_GS_COMPUTER_SYSTEM_EXT.ResourceID WHERE v_GS_COMPUTER_SYSTEM_EXT.PCSystemType0 IN (@TYPE)
I've tried different Expressions, filters, options, syntax, and what-not, but I think I'm missing something basic.
I'm trying to embed a report into a CRM IFrame. So I have the report created in Business Intelligence Visual Studio 2005, but I need to display it with none of the header details SRS displays by default.
Using the following URL I included rc:toolbar=false and rcarameters=false but they don't seem to make any difference. I basically need to display the report content as if it were part of that page and not an SRS hosted page.
