Matrix Dynamic Column Problem HELP!
Jun 20, 2007
Ill start off by saying that I am an ASP.NET developer and I am self-taught in using SSRS2005. (quite poorly I might add) That being said I am having a problem with a report im building. This report has 10-12 different metrics I am reporting on and I have each of them displayed in their own matrix. The first matrix was created by the report wizard that launches when you add a new report.
To give you an overview of how I am setting up these reports I will describe the structure I am using on nearly all of the matrices. I am reporting on classes that are managed by my company and held at 3rd party locations. My matrix has the 3rd party location in the rows and the quarter the class was held is the column. Matrix setup looks like this:
________|_______Quarter____________
|MetricA|MetricB|MetricC|etc...
LocationA|
LocationB|
LocationC|
The problem Im having is this. All matrices that weren't created by the wizard don't grow dynamically. Say I have 2 quarters of data I am reporting on, Instead of having a column for quarter1 and quarter 2, the report generates separate matrices for each quarter. This is true for each matrix that I created using a matrix control from the toolbox. The matrix that was created by the wizard however, has dynamic columns that grow to the right as expected.
I am populating my datasets using Stored Procedures and the matrix that behaves normally uses a different dataset than the 4 others I have completed thus far which share a dataset.
I have looked everywhere I can think of for a checkbox or a property I need to adjust and I cant find one. Anyone have any ideas??

I have a report that has a matrix. That matrix can have from 2 to 16 columns dependinging on the dataset result. Right now I am forced to place this matrix on the left side of the report and make a column layout pretty narrow. When dataset has more than 13 or so columns it looks OK, but when dataset has only two or three columns it looks weird with a matrix sitting in the left corner with two or three narrow columns and a lot of empty space to the right.
Is it possible programmatically change the width of the columns depending on their number in the dataset?
Is it possible to move the location of the matrix (horizontally) depending on the number of columns in the dataset?
Thank you,
Simon.

I got the following code to add a column in a matrix with a variance:
IIF(IsNothing(Previous(Sum(Fields!Amount.Value))) or Fields!year.Value=First(Fields!year.Value,"Category") or Previous(Sum(Fields!Amount.Value))=0,nothing,
(
(Fields!Amount.Value)
/Previous(sum(Fields!Amount.Value))
)
)
This code works fine, except that the first row of the matrix shows an #error
This happens with each matrix where I use this expression. A warning emerges:
rsruntimeerrorinexpression the value expression for the textrun Textbox43.Paragraphs[0].TextRuns[0]' contains an error.
Attempted to divide by zero.
The strange thing is that the part
Fields!year.Value=First(Fields!year.Value,"Category")
should prevent an error and I expect it to show 'nothing'
An screenshot of the table. (each color is a different category. Each row stands for 2013, 2014, 2015)
As you can see, all other 2013 rows show a blank cell, except the first row.

Hi All !
I want to show row groups as hierarchy levels and need the
sub total values belongs to each group and sub group levels. But the
most important point is that my top next top group (from child to
parent ) is not static its dynamic.i.e for a diffrent senario my under
displayed example can have Universe--->Earth as parent for Australia and USA.
eg:
1.Australia
|-------sydney
|-------Melbourne
2.USA
|------North US
|------North US(1)
|------North US(2)
|------South US
|------South US(1)
|------South US(2)
Can I get some help from anybody for making a dynamic row groups in the matrix.
Waiting for a kind help.
Regards,

I need to display 12 months dynamically in columns of a matrix report, starting with the current MMM, yy - 3 in the first column, current MMM, yy and incrementing by 1 month in columns 2-12.
For example a report that would run on today's MM, yy (5/2007) would look something like this:
MAR-07, APR-07, MAY-07, JUN-07, JUL-07, AUG-07, AUG-07, SEP-07, OCT-07, NOV-07, DEC-07, JAN-08, FEB-08
(Col 1 - Col 12 separated by commas)
How do I do this in a matrix report column?

Hi Craig/Kamal,
I got your email address from your web cast. I really enjoyed the web cast and found it to be
very informative.
Our company is planning to use SSIS (VS 2005 / SQL Server 2005). I have a quick question
regarding the product. I have looked for the information on the web, but was not able to find
relevant information.
We are getting Source data from two of our client in the form of Excel Sheet. These Excel sheets
Are generated using reporting services. On examining the excel sheet, I found out that the name
Of the columns contain data itself, so the names are not static such as Jan 2007 Sales, Feb 2007 Sales etc etc.
And even the number of columns are not static. It depends upon the range of date selected by the user.
I wanted to know, if there is a way to import Excel sheet using Integration Services by defining the position
Of column, instead of column name and I am not sure if there is a way for me to import excel with dynamic
Number of columns.
Your help in this respect is highly appreciated!
Thanks,
Hi Anthony, I am glad the Web cast was helpful.
Kamal and I have both moved on to other teams in MSFT and I am a little rusty in that area, though in general dynamic numbers of columns in any format is always tricky. I am just assuming its not feasible for you to try and get the source for SSIS a little closer to home, e.g. rather than using Excel output from Reporting Services, use the same/some form of the query/data source that RS is using.
I suggest you post a question on the SSIS forum on MSDN and you should get some good answers.

Hi every one,
Could you please anyone tell me how to have static and dynamic columns in a matrix?
We can add static columns by right clicking detail text box and add column. But it will repeat for each column group. I need static columns in the dynamic columns level itself.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
We have a matrix report which displays columns in a default sorting order. This report columns vary dynamically depending on the user input.
e.g. If user wants to see the report for column Alfa, Beta , Gama then a report will be genarted with column Alfa, Beta , Gama sorted in alphabetical order.
Site
%Risk
Alfa
Beta
Gama
X
2
1
2
3
Y
10
4
5
6
However the users want the Columns to be sorted in the order which they provide the inputs e.g. if the user entered Gama, Alfa, Beta the report should display the columns in the same order instead of applying the default sorting order.
Site
%Risk
Gama
Alfa
Beta
X
2
3
1
2
Y
10
6
4
5
Any thoughts on ways to achieve this in SSRS matrix report would really help.
Cheers,
Viv

I have the following result set that I am putting into a SSRS 2012 Matrix:
RowNum RowLabel Val Title
1.00 Advance 10000.0000 TestTitle1
4.00 List Price 18.0000 TestTitle1
5.00 Units Shipped 20000 TestTitle1
6.00 Return Units -8125 TestTitle1
7.00 Net Sales Units 11875 TestTitle1
8.00 Return % 45.0%/10.0% TestTitle1
*Note: The data in Val for 'Return %' is a text field - informational only and necessary.
When setting it up such that the Columns are Title, and the Rows are RowLabel, I get the following:
TestTitle1

another aggregate function for subtotaling, so for the cell value i m
wirting sum(column) / A. how to write A that points to sum of all cells
on the column.

Hi there,
I am a new member of this site and I am not very much aware of T-sql's working.
My question is what if I need to get one column's data to be the heading of another column.
To be very exact I have a school's database. The table I am talking about is of the results of students. The table contains Student ID, Subject ID, Total marks of the subject, Marks obtained in the subject. Now I want to print a report by generating data from this table. Right now the data is something like this
StuID - - - SubID - - - -Tot - - -Obt
1 - - - - - - -1 - - - - - - -50 - - - 38
1 - - - - - - -2 - - - - - - -50 - - - 41
1 - - - - - - -3 - - - - - - -50 - - - 42
1 - - - - - - -4 - - - - - - -50 - - - 40
2 - - - - - - -1 - - - - - - -50 - - - 35
2 - - - - - - -2 - - - - - - -50 - - - 40
2 - - - - - - -3 - - - - - - -50 - - - 42
2 - - - - - - -4 - - - - - - -50 - - - 41
StudentID and SubjectID fields are related to other tables so I can get the names from there but when I need the report I need the data in the form of
StuID - Sub 1 - - - Sub 2 - - - Sub 3 - - - -Sub4
1 - - - - 38 - - - - - - 41 - - - - - - 42 - - - - - - 40
2 - - - - 35 - - - - - - 40 - - - - - - 42 - - - - - - 41
The Subjects can be different for different students so the query should be dynamic instead of hard coding the names of the subjects. I hope I am clear with my question. The subjectIDs or their names will become the headings and they will contain the obtained marks for that subjects in their columns just for the reports. I have also checked the PIVOT function but was not able to do what I wanted.
Thanks.

I have a matrix that has the following columns:Date Shift Equipment1 Equipment2 Equipment3 etcBased on a parameter, i want to show/hide the Shift column. If the Shift column is hidden, i want to move the equipment columns over so there is no gap in the columns.I know you can do this in a table by hidding the whole column, but how do you do this in a matrix? when i try to hide the column the visibility option is not there, and when i hide the field, it leaves a gap in the report.Thanks for your help.

Quick question for you pro's...
Within a report matrix, I want to be able to have different aggregations for totals. One column would be a Sum of the data in that column, the next column would be an Average of the data. Is this possible, or is this not supported in SSR2005?
Thanks in advance for your help,

Hi,
I would like to generate following table with reporting service matrix.
But if I use the expression : percentage coulmn=sum(field!qty.value) / sum(field!qty.value, "region_group")
It will become a percentage of a row total, instead of a group total (store group). Please see the second table.
Any ideas?
Thank you!
(Correct!)
store1 store2 level1 level2 level3 sub total level1 level2 subtotal category region qty % qty % qty % qty % qty % qty % qty % C1 APAC 10 10% 20 20% 70 70% 100 100% 25 50% 25 50% 50 100% EURP C2 CHINA
(Wrong) store1 store2 level1 level2 level3 sub total level1 level2 subtotal category region qty % qty % qty % qty % qty % qty % qty % C1 APAC 10 6% 20 13% 70 46% 100 25 16% 25 16% 50 EURP C2 CHINA

Hello,
I have one column group and three static columns. I'd like to control static column visibility property depending on a field value. I.e. Hidden: =Fields!GroupId<>5.
But I'm not able to find visibility property in column object. Neither in properties explorer nor RDL documentation. I'm only able to set hidden property in textbox objects.
I have RS 2005.
Thank you for any idea.

Hi,
I have a requirement from my users to be able to drill down for a single column in a matrix. I've been able to implement drilldown for all of the measures (all columns grouped at the same time) in my matrix but they now want to be able to group different columns independently of each other. In other words they want to be able to group the data in different columns by different things.
An example might make my question clearer, the report would need to look like this:
Client Name
Sales -
Costs +
Revenue -
Client A +
Europe +
Middle East +
Asia Pacific +
$12,000,000
Products +
Investments +
$12,000,000
$8,000,000
$4,000,000
$10,000,000
$22,000,000
Client B +
$77,000,000
$16,000,000
$9,000,000
$22,000,000
$8,000,000
$32,000,000
As you an see, the Sales measure has been expanded so it's grouped by region so the sales figures can be seen for all clients and the 3 regions. The revenue column has also been expanded/grouped so that you can see revenue figures for products and investments for all clients. Costs is not expanded but it could be by clicking on the '+' which would group the data in that column by something else. They have asked for more than 1 level of drilldown, so clicking on "Europe" above would allow another level for the sales measure which might be country. There will also be regular measure columns that are not drilldown/groupable columns.
Is it possible to implement this with SSRS 2005?
Thanks,
Lachlan

Hello,
I'm trying to make a report with the following layout:
Car Sales 2004 2005 Var %
Total 10 20 50%
Green 7 14 50%
Red 3 6 50%
I'm using a matrix and the data is coming from a cube. One dimension called 'Years' is used to fill the matrix columns and the data corresponding to the car sales is filled by a measure called 'Sales'.
I've built part of the example but I can't add the final column ( the VAR% column).
If I try to add a static column in the end it apears only one year.
The behavior that I would like to have is simillar to the situation when we add the Subtotal column. Although, instead the sum() made by subtotal I would like to calculate the variation percentage between years.
Is there any way to add a final column into a matrix avoiding the problem that I'm having or maybe change the behavior of Subtotal column?
Thanks and best regards.

Hi All
I have a matrigx report that groups by months in the columns. The reason for using a matrix style report is due to not knowing which months are going to exist in the database for the current year.
I do however need to have a static column appended to the matrix, using the same row groupings... I did think of placing a table next to the matrix with that column although im worried the row groupings and alignment may be off of each record.
Is it possible to have a static column inside a matrix that is not grouped by any of the columns just the rows.
What would be the best way to achieve this requirement. I also need to provide the options to hide the months columns and display only the static one and vice-versa...
Any help would be appreciated..
Regards,
Neil
