Reporting Services :: How To Create Multi-valued Parameter For Only One Specific Condition
Jul 21, 2015
I have report where i should create a report which is multivalued parametr report,but here my condition is i want to see only one county name in my output that is Ex: Asia Specific (CountryName),I dnt want to see the other Country names,So how should we create for this condition .
I have researched this question and so far have found very different opinions as to how or if it is possible.I have created 2 Data-driven subscriptions in SSRS. 1 for our sales persons and another for our managers reports. For the salespersons report, the solution works brilliantly as expected and I can appreciated the increased simplicitly for having 1 subscription to drive reports to a sales staff of over 100 folks.One the other hand, I can't seem to grasp the significance of this type of solution for the Sales managers when they have multiple salespersons that report to them.
Apparently, SSRS 2008 has provided no practical solution for this scenario that would be easily implemented in a Data driven subscription.Since I can't find a way to pass in muliple integer values that represent each of the salesreps for a single manager, I am stuck with potentially sending multiple reports for each of the Sales Reps residing under a single manager. Not very elegant or useful as I'd hoped for using Data driven subscriptions. I have even changed the parameter datatype to string and used something like:
paramSalesPeople = substring((SELECT ( ', ' + CAST(territoryid AS VARCHAR(2000))) FROM Reports..SalesForce t2 WHERE t1.SalesManagerID = t2.SalesManagerID ORDER BY SalesManagerID FOR XML PATH( '' )), 3, 1000 )
To create a comma-delimited list of values for the parameters in effort of generating 1 (ONE) record per Manager. But the Data Driven Subscription fails miserably.So the question, Is it or is it not possible to have multiple values passed as a single parameter to a data driven subscription to consolidate the number of required reports into one. If not, it would seem that it should be possible since it can be done from the reports parameters drop-down menu.I have read someones recommendation to script the multi-valued parameter which seems to defeat the intent of the term "Data Driven' Subscription if I have to hard-code this logic into a script.
we are using SSRS 2012.Oracle 9i as back end database. Select A,B,C from view where A in (Param1) in above query when I am passing 1 value getting output in 30 sec. when I passed two values getting time out error in SSRS. how to pass multiple values in Oracle 9i in SSRS report.
I have two report , first is main report which is matrix and have one parameter User_ids which is multi value selection and my second report is basic chart of user_wise performance.
Now, my main report (matrix ) works fine for Multiple selection of users and i have putted one textbox on main report chart which has action properties set for chart report, when user click on chart button it must goes to chart with user selected in main report. Now , i have used expression for parameter to send it like ..
=join(parameter!user_id!value,",") which pass selected value to chart
And when I am selecting single user it passing that value to chart parameter list but , when it is more than one user it errors with conversion failed when converting the nvarchar value '121,128' to data type int. But my chart also works when passing 121,128 in user parameter in preview of report .
So this is my first time posting on MSDN but I am running into an issue I don't know how to circumvent. This issue isn't causing my report not to run but it makes it very confusing for end users. I am building a report for a user and he was cascading parameters. The parameters are Department (the Parent), Site (the Child) and Vehicle Class (the grandchild).
Here is my issue: If I select 2 Departments named Dept1 and Dept2, the Site parameter populates. If Dept1 and Dept2 have sites named the same, example fleet, Fleet shows up in the site parameter twice.
Then the Vehicle Class parameter populates. Now if at those sites they have the same vehicle class, lets say 1/2 ton pickup, 1/2 ton pickup is in the vehicle class parameter twice.
All three of these parameters are populated by a query and all of the queries are using SELECT DISTINCT. I know I could manually input values for the parameters but there are to many departments and sites and they all vary to much depending on the department.
Is there a way to to only have distinct values populate the parameter even if the parents have the same child?
I have an SSRS 2005 report that I want to enable for multi value. However, I always run into the issue with the way it passes multiple values. How exactly do I get a multi-value parameter setup and working on both the report AND SQL side?I used the MS example of checking the multi checkbox for the parameter and then using a WHERE Column IN (@MultiParam), but this doesn't work. When you select one item, or is it multiple I can't remember, it fails.
I am forced to use a Sp in teh first place as my query is too long for the text dataset. I have a parameter Time_Period which ia a multivalued one but it is not allowing me to use this in the SP. using RS 2005.
Result (While I am selecting 'Yes' in dropdown) ---------------------------------------------- incident_id usr_id item_id 10059926 191 61006 10054444 222 3232
SELECT incident.incident_id,incident.usr_id,incident.item_id FROM incident where exists (How i can write query here to check the act_type_sc=ADD_ATTCHMNTS is exists)
I have a Multivalue parameter with 4 available values and have 4 columns in the report that correspond to each of these values.I apply column visibility to each of the 4 columns with the following expression (the number changes for each column
What I want to do is that if I select a KPI and the Column value is NULL then to hide the row.Obviously if you select multiple KPIs and only 1 of the columns has null value then I wouldn't want the Row hidden.
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.
Hello, I am attempting to create a cascading parameter. Parameter's 1 & 2 are multi-valued. Datasets 1 & 2 supply Parameter's 1 & 2. The values for Parameter 1 as derived from Dataset 1 are 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D' and 'E'. The potential values for Parameter 2 will only be created if value 'C' is amongst the multiple values selected for Parameter 1. Thus I need to write my query for Dataset 2 so that it can check the values of Parameter 1 for the existence of 'C' otherwise it returns nothing. What is the best practice for a dataset referencing the values of a multi-valued parameter in order to generate it's resultset?
I want to set defaults for my multi-valued report parameter MONTH so that when the report starts, it automatically selects all the months prior to the current month (effectively creates a YTD report). However, using RS2005, I can't seem to figure out how to do this. I can create an IIF expression in 12 different value entries in the report parameters that returns the month based on the system date, but the first time I pass blanks, null or anything except a valid parameter, it clears the entire parameter list when the report displays.
Does anyone have any suggestions for auto-populating multiple values in a parameter at runtime where one or more of the parameter values may be empty? Checking "Allow Null" or "Allow Blank" doesn't fix this problem.
I tried to pass all the values in a single value entry on the report parameters page, but can't find the syntax that will allow this. I'm not sure if it will let you do that anyway...
Hi, I am creating a data set for a ROLAP report which executes a dynamic SQL using EXEC. I am finding problems parameterizing multi-valued report parameters in the SQL being executed through EXEC. To consider a sample code:
EXEC('select * from country where country_key in ('+@country+')')
where @country is a multi-valued report parameter.
I have a multi-valued parameter that I want to pass to a subreport. The values are 11, 12, 13, and 14.
So here's what I've done:
1. For the properties of the clickable field of the first report, I have gone to the Navigation tab and chosen the subreport in the "jump to report" pulldown.
2. Then I clicked on the Parameters button and added a parameter name for the multi-valued parameter I am trying to send. For the Parameter value, I have tried 11,12,13,14. I have also tried =Split(11,12,13,14)
3. On the subreport, I create a report parameter with the same name, data type is string, multi-value is checked, and the available values pulldown is populated by a query.
So I run the first report and click on the link that brings me to the subreport, but all the subreport shows is the results for 11, not 12, 13, and 14.
How can I get the second report to understand that I want it to show all the records related to 11, 12, 13, and 14? If I bypass the first report and simply use the drop-down to choose 11, 12, 13, and 14 in the subreport, it works fine. I just can't seem to figure out how to correctly have the first report tell the subreport that it wants 11, 12, 13, and 14.
I have a problem with multi-value parameter in ReportingServices2005, hope to find a solution here.
if I use ordinary parameter in a report(multi-value checkbox is not selected), after deployment I can click on drop down list and type possible value of that parameter using keyboard(it will be selected from what i typed).
if I use multi-value parameter somewhy it doesn't respond to anything i type from my keyboard.
Why is that? What should i do to make that multi-value parameter select possible result from what i type?
I'm using SSRS 2005 which connects to SQL Server 2005. I need to pass Multi valus for single parameter...
E.g. Command type : Text SELECT * FROM COUNTRY where CountryId IN ( @CountryID)
If i tried to preview using single parameter, it shows the record without any problem. However when i tried to put multi values, it gives error message?? I read somewhere which says, need to set to multivalue. But, i could not find the place to set the multi value option...
How to solve it?? Your suggestion/recommendations greatly appreciated.
I need to create a function which takes a multi-value parameter. When I select more than one item, I get the error that I have too many arguments. Does anybody have a solution?
Or can I create a view and then do a "SELECT * FROM viewName WHERE columnName IN (@param)"?
Hello Everyone, I am trying to expand the multi-valued parameter menu object so I can display the selection list in a more user-friendly format since the text is fairly long. If left at the default setting then I have to scroll to the right to see the complete string(s). For a single-select parameter I can just CAST the string to CHAR(100) and the menu object will expand. However, it seems that this approach is not working for multi-valued parameter menu objects. Is this a bug in SSRS, and is there another way to accomplish this. Please let me know.
I have a Multi-valued parameter that is a string type and it freaks out when a do a select all from my drop down list. I suspect it has something to do with size as it works great if a pick a reasonable amount of items. My parameter list is populated by 1463 items of 12 characters each. Is there a threshold I should have to worry about?
I have an SSRS report with several variables, some of which are multi-valued. The main query that feeds the report uses some table value functions. For example, the query looks something like this:
select tv1.a, tv1.b, tv2.x, tv2.y, tbl.m, tbl.n from tableValueFunction1(@MultiValueParam) as tv1 inner join tableValueFunction2(@MultiValueParam) as tv2 on tv1.xxx = tv2.xxx inner join regularTable as tbl on tv1.xxx = tbl.xxx
where tbl.abc in (@MultiValueParam).When I try to run this, I get an error saying that I'm feeding the wrong number of parameters into the table value functions. I've fed multi-valued parameters to stored procedures before and used a splitter function to split out the comma separated values, so I was planning to do the same thing in this scenario. However, this is different. When I look at the query in SQL Profiler, it shows discrete values for the multi value parameter. For example, the same query above looks like this when viewed through the profiler (using 1,2,3 as my multi-value selection):
select tv1.a, tv1.b, tv2.x, tv3.y, tbl.m, tbl.n from tableValueFunction1(1,2,3) as tv1 inner join tableValueFunction2(1,2,3) as tv2 on tv1.xxx = tv2.xxx inner join regularTable as tbl on tv1.xxx = tbl.xxx where tbl.abc in (1,2,3)
In other words, SSRS isn't converting the multi-value parameter to a comma separated string, like it normally does.
I am trying to get a null value to pass to a multi-select parameter in SSRS 2005. The multi-select box is getting its possible values from the following query:
SELECT NULL CMP_ID, '<all companies>' COMPANY UNION SELECT DISTINCT T1.CMP_ID, T1.COMPANY FROM VIEWCOMPANYLIST T1 WHERE T1.DIV_ID = 2 ORDER BY 1
This query is pre-pending a row with NULL as the first ID. The resulting data set is exactly what you would expect - Row 1 has a null in column CMP_ID, and <all companies> in column COMPANY. All the rest of the rows have proper data. My multi-select parameter box is of type Multi-value Int, with possible values populated by this query and a default of NULL. However, when I preview the report, the <all companies> row disappears.
It's not even in the list, and it's not getting selected by the default selector. So, of course, when I try to View Report without selecting anything, I get prompted to select a company. Why the prepended row in my dataset is getting dropped from the multi-select box at display time? And yes, I have to be able to pass a null value because the stored procedure on which the report is based expects this parameter to be optional.
DECLARE @ServerCIName varchar(5000) SELECT * FROM dbo.INC WHERE Status in ('Assigned','In Progress','Pending') and Description like '%' + (Select * from SplitDelimiterString(@ServerName,',')) + '%' and (select DATEADD(dd, DATEDIFF(dd, 0, (Submit_Date)), 0)) = (select DATEADD(dd, DATEDIFF(dd, 0, getdate()), 0)) In place of "and Description like '%' + (Select * from SplitDelimiterString(@ServerName,',')) + '%' ", if I use "and Description like '%' + @ServerName + '%' " and pass a single value, it works.
But @ServerName contains multiple values and it is dynamic (not constant).
I have a report that includes two multi-valued parameters. In the Default Values section, I choose 'from query' and select dataset and value field. In the Available Values section, I choose 'from query' select the same dataset and value field, and in the label field I select the relevant label field. When I run the report my multi-valued parameters look like I selected the option 'select all' (all options are selected). How can I keep the multi-valued parameters cleared from selections until the user select his choice? Thanks in advance.
There is a multi value parameter called "include" in the report where "Allow Multiple Values" is checked and it has 4 Available values as shown in the attached screen shots and preview of the report is also shown .There is no data set for this parameter and the values will get displayed on the report based on the visibility condition set in the report.Example : If first value is selected then 1 is passed and based on the visibility condition set in the report - the report output is displayed.None is default value and has value 4 and when the report is run with this option i.e. "None" then rest three parameter values are not applicable .
Requirement : -When the end user selects (Select All) Check box then (None) -check box must be disabled or must not appear for selection for the end user -When the end user selects check boxes either of the first three except None then also None check box must be disabled or must not appear for -selection for the end user -when the end user selects a combination of first three then also None check box must be disabled or must not appear for selection for the end user -The None is set as default with a value as 4 and is applicable only when the user does not select either of the first three values and the report will run.
where uidate is a calculated field in my dataset that always has the value of 05/29/2012 (using formatdatetime("05/29/2012",dateformat.ShortDate))
Everything else is set to Auto, with stripwidth=0
I'm trying to display a single vertical line at the x-axis value of 05/29/2012
I have previously tried setting the interval offset to "05/29/2012" but that didn't work. I've also tried setting the value of a hidden text box on the report to "05/29/2012" and setting the interval offset to the value of that text box, but that gave me a "text box not declared" error.
How I can simply display a vertical stripline on my line graph at the x-axis value of 05/29/2012 ?
I am trying to write an visibility function to have message shown based on two different IIF conditions:
If behavior is to Add a customer ( if message =NAME ALREADY EXISTS, return " NAME ALREADY EXISTS", otherwize return " NAME CREATED")If behavior is to Delete a customer (( if message =NAME DOES NOT EXIST, return "NAME DOES NOT EXIST", otherwize return "NAME SUCCESSFULLY DELETED") I tried the following which doesn't work: =IIF((UCase(First(Fields!Message.Value, "DataSetName")) = "NAME ALREADY EXISTS"), "WARNING: NAME ALREADY EXIST", "NAME CREATED"), IIF((UCase(First(Fields!Message.Value, "DataSetName")) = " NAME DOES NOT EXIST"), "WARNING: NAME DOES NOT EXIST", " NAME DELETED")
When i open any reports getting the below error message.An error occurred within the report server database. This may be due to a connection failure, timeout or low disk condition within the database.
(rsReportServerDatabaseError)Procedure or function 'CreateSession' expects parameter '@SiteZone', which was not supplied.
