I have a new SQL 2005 (SP2) Reporting Services server to which I've just upgraded and deployed some SSRS 2000 reports.
I have a subreport that contains a matrix with two groups. The report data seems to be inexplicably repeating the data for the first row in the group for all rows in the group. Example:
ID1 ID2 DisplayData
1 1 A
1 2 B
1 3 C
2 1 A
2 2 B
2 3 C
Parent group is on ID1, child group is on ID2, report would show:
1 1 A
2 A
3 A
2 1 A
2 A
3 A
Is this a matrix bug in 2005 SP2, or do I need to do something differently? I can no longer pull a comparison version from an SSRS 2000 server to verify, but I believe it was working as expected before...
I've got a simple report. In the header of the report I have some Informations and I want them to repeat.
In the ReportBody I have a matrix with a lot of colums - so the expand horizontically. The rows of the matrix fit on one page, they dont cause a page break.
The Problem is, the report doesnt repeat the headers.
I tried to solve this : putting the matrix in a rectangle putting the rectangle in a table using the table header for repetition
The problem now is, the free space between the outer side of the matrix an the right side of the rectangle (report is in landscape format) causes every second page an empty page.
Is it possible to repeat the row labels for matrix reports where there are multiple groups. So if the matrix report rows are department,division,employee then have all three labels show up on each row not just at the breaks. Cannot seem to find a way to do this. thanks
I've got this little problem. I need to insert data from a table to another table. The scenario looks as follows: I've got 'Company' table (no duplicated records there) and 'Contacts' table (one to many relation: for one company there can be more than one contact). The following statement retrieves the data but it shows me everything, including all contacts and therefore I get duplicating values, e.g. company name. Is there any way of changing the following query so it works?
Pulled all my hair out now, can someone please offer some help before I go totally mad...
I have no page header, this is all in the body. I have a List with account number and job number in it at the top, called list1. In list1 I have list2, with the job details, basically a list of people who attended the job. The fields in list2 are textboxes, they're not in a table.
EG: Acc No: 12345 Job No: 54321
Name Fred Bloggs Joe Bloggs Etc
When my list2 of names goes over 1 page, I want to repeat the account number and job number on each subsequent page. In my real report I actually have 10 fields I want to repeat.
I then want to be able to export this report to a PDF.
I can't put the header in the page header and RepeatWith doesn't work when exporting to PDF, or at all depending on what mood it's in.
I have run into a strange issue that I believe is a SQL Reporting Services issue.
I have a report laid out in landscape setting that has 4 columns of text. Two of the columns are sub-reports (due to the complexity and size, we did not flatten out the data in the stored procedure) and two of the columns are regular fields.
The 2 columns of regular fields are smaller, and normally only grow to about 1/2 the height of he page. One of the two sub-reports contains large amounts of text, and at time grows larger than the height of the page.
When the sub-report grows larger than the current page, it correctly starts up on the next page. But the 2 fields of data from the main dataset (not the sub-report columns) repeat themselves on the next page as well.
What is even more strange is the 2 fields of data from the main dataset only repeat data to grow vertically as far as the sub-report needs to grow. So if there is more data in either of these 2 fields than is needed for the sub-report to grow on the 2nd page, it will cut off the data in both of these fields.
I have tried placing the information in a group header. Turned the "Repeat on new page" both True and False, Took away the table header and footer, forced a page break after each group, tried using the "Hide Duplicates" property on the field within the details section, and nothing has seemed to fix the issue.
If anyone has run into this and found a work around, let me know.
Can someone tell me why my stored procedure is repeating the Name in the same column? Here's my stored procedure and output: select distinct libraryrequest.loanrequestID, titles.title, requestors.fname + ' ' + requestors.lname as [Name], Cast(DATEPART(m, libraryrequest.requestDate) as Varchar(5)) + '/' + Cast(DATEPART(d, libraryrequest.requestDate) as Varchar(5)) + '/' + Cast(DATEPART(yy, libraryrequest.RequestDate) as Varchar(5)) as RequestDate, Cast(DATEPART(m, libraryrequest.shipdate) as Varchar(5)) + '/' + Cast(DATEPART(d, libraryrequest.shipdate) as Varchar(5)) + '/' + Cast(DATEPART(yy, libraryrequest.shipdate) as Varchar(5)) as ShipDate from LibraryRequest join requestors on requestors.requestorid=libraryrequest.requestoridjoin titles on titles.titleid = requestors.titleidwhere shipdate is not null Output: ID Title Name Request Date Ship Date 29 Heads, You Win Brenda Smith 1/18/2008 1/18/200835 Still More Games Brenda Smith 1/22/2008 1/22/200851 The Key to..

I am querying several tables and piping the output to an Excel spreadsheet. Several (not all) columns contain repeating data that I'd prefer not to include on the output. I only want the first row in the set to have that data. Is there a way in the query to do this under SQL 2005?
As an example, my query results are as follows (soory if it does not show correctly): OWNERBARN ROUTE DESCVEHDIST CASE BARBAR TRACKING #70328VEH 32832869.941393 BARBAR TRACKING #70328VEH 32832869.941393 BARBAR TRACKING #70328VEH 32832869.941393 DAXDAX TRACKING #9398VEH 39839834.942471 DAXDAX TRACKING #9398VEH 39839834.942471 DAXDAX TRACKING #9398VEH 39839834.942471 TAXTAX TRACKING #2407 40754.391002 TAXTAX TRACKING #2407 40754.391002 TAXTAX TRACKING #2407 40754.391002
I only want the output to be: OWNERBARN ROUTE DESCVEHDIST CASE BARBAR TRACKING #70328VEH 32832869.941393
Hopefully this makes sense, not sure what to even begin researching...
I'm trying to optimize all facets of this process, as it will take over the resources on my server if not done efficiently.
I have CSV files containing INTs that I need to upsert (match to an existing/earlier imported array or create a new record set) millions of times a day. To be clear, this data is a small subset of the actual import, this arrays contents are not the main data of the process, and the value of the entire array is meant to be related to higher level tables.
The contents of the CSV array are 99.9+% repeating, meaning they will very often share the exact same contents as a a previously imported array. A rough guess is there are 20k combinations existing, and less than 1k new per month, and will range from 6 cols x 15 rows to 6 cols x 50 rows.
So current plan is to use a MD5 hash during the (not SQL related) export process to identify the contents of this CSV file, and export only the md5 (32 digit hex) as a lookup to identify the contents. If the SQL import process finds a new (unknown) MD5 it will request the actual contents, otherwise it will simply use the MD5 as a key/id/code for the actual array contents that are already stored.
There's probably a certain terminology I'm not familiar with for this type of thing.. I've never heard of something like this. I realize collision is a threat, but I'm unsure how much I should be worried about it with this type of data (similar size/contents, but a relatively small amount of possibilities). I think up to even 0.1% collision would be acceptable which is probably way more than enough.
Does this sound like a bad idea to anyone? Are there certain hash functions I should use for this type of thing? Anyone have suggestions of where to look next?
I'm using RS2000 SP2 and am getting an issue when exporting to PDF. If I have a table that spans more than one page and I set the RepeatHeaderOnNewPage to True, then on occasion the table header will be displayed on top of the first few rows of data. It does not happen on all the pages or all the time and I can not find any information on this issue. Has anyone come across this before and solved it?
Is it possible to create Expand/Collapse functionality for the grouped data in Table and Matrix data regions? Essentially, the idea is for the user to be able to see the group/subgroup data if she wishes to by clicking on (+/-) symbols, as is usually the case in Tree View style data grid control in web apps. Any ideas how to accomplish the same in reporting services?
But while I use matrix to build this report, I got the result like:
M1
M2
Project1
Info1
Info3
Project2
Info4
Info5
Project3
Info6
The report will not show the multiple records on the row group "Project" like item "Info2".
After I referred to the similar problem mentioned on this forums, I tried to use "RowNumber("Matrix1_Project")" to resolve it. But still I got the result like:
M1
M2
Project1
RowNumer
Info1
RowNumer
Info1
RowNumer
Info3
Project2
RowNumer
Info4
RowNumer
Info5
Project3
RowNumer
Info6
It would be much appreciated if anyone could give me some hints to complete the report I need.
I have a stored procedure that give the (sample) data as below.
Country Category State/Province Year Month quantity Canada cat1 AB 2008 1 10 Canada cat2 BC 2008 2 10 Canada cat3 AB 2008 3 10 Canada cat4 SK 2008 1 10 US cat1 BB 2008 1 20 US cat3 GJ 2008 2 15 US cat4 CO 2008 2 15
When I configure the matrix I EXPECT TO SEE THE FOLLOWING:
AB BC SK 2008 2008 2008 1 3 2 1 ________________________________________________________________________
Canada cat1 10 cat2 10 cat3 10
cat4 10
BB GJ CO 2008 2008 2008 1 2 2 ________________________________________________________________________
US cat1 20 cat3 15 cat4 15
BUT I AM GETTING THE FOLLOWING RESULT:
AB BC SK BB GJ CO 2008 2008 2008 2008 2008 2008 1 3 2 1 1 2 ________________________________________________________________________

In Crystal it automatically displays as above. How do I do this in SRS? Matrix is not showing the state relevant to the country properly. It is showing all the states.
I need to know how to add in the subtotal and the grandtotal. Im using a matrix and SSRS 2000.
Besides that, is that a way to add in the header name for the ROW group in a matrix? Im currently using a normal table, aligned to the same size as the matrix, above the matrix and display the header. Is there a better way?
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.
I have a Matrix table that expands to the right when choosing an amount of months to be shown. Under this matrix I have to Charts. The two charts are situated together, that is no space between them, and to the left of the report.
Now, if I choose a lot of months, say three years the matrix diagram will be huge to the right. The problem I have is that the second diagram, the one on the right, moves to the right depending on how big the report gets, and this is not good at all. The two charts are supposed to be all the way to the left.
I am developing a SQL database to cover operations that were previouslyhandled in a spreadsheet, and need to create a view or procedure thatpresents data into a matrix format similar to what the users are currentlyworking with. There must be a way I can create this using Transact SQL butI cant figure it at this point. What the users want is for data to bepresented in 7 continuous columns where each column shows records for 1 dayof a week and each record is presented as a 'block'. Any tips or hints frompeople who have achieved something similar would be gratefully accepted.A sample of the format appears below. (Set with tabs. Hope thistranslates)1/2/2004 2/2/2004 3/2/2004 4/2/2004 5/2/20046/2/2004 7/2/2004Person Smith Jones GreenRoom 1A 2B 3cStart 9:00AM 8:00AM 8:00AMEnd 5:00 PM 5:00 PM 5:00 PMPerson Brown WhiteRoom 1D 1DStart 9:00AM 9:00AMEnd 5:00 PM 5:00 PMPerson GreenRoom 1MStart 9:00AMEnd 5:00 PMNotes1. As the diagram shows, there is likely to be a different number of recordsfor each day.2. It is not necessary to have the field headings appear on the left of theview.
I have a matrix which lets you drill-down by company divisions and then branches within those divisions, and the data columns show how many employees are required for each divisionranch, and how many they actually have. For example, Division 1 might have 9 / 9 for Actual / Required, but when you drill it down to Branches A and B, they may have 5 / 4 and 4 / 5 respectively. Therefore Branch A has surplus employees and Branch B has a shortfall, but at the Divisional level it looks like there are the correct number of employees.
Naturaly my customer is a bit concerned that this could be misleading data. Is there any way that I can check at the Divisional level (i.e. collapsed) whether a Branch at the expanded level has a surplus or shortage of employees? I'm not sure whether this could be resolved by redesigning the report or if it's even possible. Any ideas would be great!
I have a matrix within a list and would like to display a field value in the page footer on each page. In the page footer, if I reference a textbox from the matrix the value is always blank? I realize this is most likely a scoping issue but how can I accomplish this?
My Report consists of a matrix and table . I Kept the matrix inside the table because i need to calculate subgroups total as well as Grand Total using the group i provided inside the table . The issue when i tried to render the report to Excel it shows "Data Regions within table/matrix cells are ignored." I dont know how to solve it . When i google it . It says that its a Microsoft SSRS limitation . Anyway i could solve it any help will be appreciated

Is it possible to Group data in a Matrix exactly similar to Table Control. For example, my table control would group data as follows:
Region Country City $ales
North America
USA
Chicago 4 MM
LA 10 MM
NYK 6 MM
Canada
Toronto 4 MM
while the matrix would display as:
North America USA Chicago 4MM
LA
NYK
Canada Toronto ...
Do you see the problem? The matrix is starting the subgroup at the same level as the parent group. How do I make a sub group start at the row below the parent group row in matrix just like in the table above?

I have used two matrix in one of my reports. One matrix is right above other. Both matrix's columns are allocated for month name. I.e there are 12 columns for each month of the year for each matrix. column name of the second matrix was hidden. so end user can see only first matrix column name and corresponding data in each matrix. But the problem is now, when there is no data for perticular month in first matrix, thats month's column does not appear at all. Lets say there is no data for November in first matrix. so Novem column is missing in first mtrix now. but still Novem column is shown on the second matrix as it has some data, although column name is not shown. I wonder how I can show all the columns of both matrix regardless of population of data.
In my report, I have a Matrix control placed next to a table. It renders properly and displays data aligned in two controls in Visual Studio Preview. However, when I deploy to production, it wraps the matrix control below the table, in fact puts the entire matrix control underneath the table. Why such strange behavior and not in the Preview of the report but only in Production? Any ideas how to fix this?
