Reporting Services :: Sort Report By Totals Column
Jan 4, 2012
I've created an SSRS report in Report builder and I'm displaying it in SharePoint 2010. What I would need to do is to sort according to my totals -column. My report structure is as follows:
The first and column second columns are the ID and the name of a customer. There are over 35.000 consolidated customers in the database.
The third column is the column which I would like my report to be sorted upon. It gives the sum (Amount_EUR) of all different productlines sold to the customer.
The fourth column in this report design model is the product groups sold to that customer. There over twenty of product groups visible when Running the report.
This is what my report looks like when finished (you'd have to scroll a lot to the right if I took the whole of the report so I cut only a part of it to be visible):
I tried to add a sorting option from the reports Tablix properties and adding this code as the sorting function:
=SUM(Fields!Amount_EUR.Value)
But I'm getting an error: "A sort expression for the tablix 'Tablix1' includes an aggregate function. Aggregate functions cannot be used in data row sort expressions."
Ok, so no aggregate functions aren't allowed to the sort.
If I just put:
=Fields!Amount_EUR.Value and sort by that from Z to A(biggest to largest) it doesn't have any effect. The report is still sorted alphabetically by the ParentID.
I've also tried some other code bits, but they all seem to be saying that I couldn't put an aggregate function into the sort expression....but my Total -column is already calculated with a Sum -function....
Is it possible sort my report based on that Total -column? If yes, how? I'm using SSRS 2008
I have a report builder drill down report. I have row groups with totals. It looks like the attached. The problem is when the report is not expanded the Grand Totals column is not accurate... it is displaying the totals of one of the rows when expanded.The expression in the Total Show text box is
I have a table with a row group "Sales Area" that lists customers per sales area. There is one column with the sales per customer and another column with the planned sales per customer.A third column "Under Plan" is a simple calculation that compares the two Report Items of the sales to the plan and puts a 1 there if plan is higher. My issue is how to get the total of the group "Sales Area", to display the group total of all customers that are under plan. SSRS doesn't let me use aggregate functions on group totals;Unfortunately I cannot pre-calculate the "Under Plan" figure in the query, since this example is a simplified overview (the customers is a distinct count for example...)
I have some data grouped in a table by a certain criteria, and for each group it is computed a subtotal for the group. Of the values from each of the group, I want to create a grand total on the report by adding every subtotal from each group.
Example: ... .... Group1 Value 10 20 Sub Total 1: 30
Group2 Value 15 25 Sub Total 2: 40
Now, I would like to be able to add subtotal 1 (30) to subtotal 2 (40) and my grand total would be 70. Can I accomplish this task in SSRS?
Hi, I have a report with fiive columns, I have implemented interactive column sorting on the report. I have added a group to the report based on Column 2 and there is a page break by group. Now if I am on the second page ( page break by column 2 ) and sort on column 3(there is no grouping on column 3), the sorting happens but after the sort, the first page is displayed.IS there any way to remain on the same page while sorting? Thanks in Advance.
I have a requirement where i have to display some data in the form of multi column but the main report should be in a standard one.I have tried by using sub report as multi column and used that in my main report but when i preview the report it is considering it as a normal report.Do we have any feature in SSRS to have both multi & standard report layouts in one report.
I am creating a report in SSRS which has the following criteria:
- Row 1 (parent) is 'Product'
- Row 2 (child) is 'Feed'
- Columns are date. I have 5 dates showing at any one time across the top. The date field is set up as a parameter so depending on the date the user selects, the report will show that date on the end column and then the 4 days prior to that in the other columns.
- Data is the number of records.
I have a sub total on the Product and the report is collapsed on Product as default.
What i'm stuck on is trying to insert a column at the very end that will show the variance between the last two dates. So the difference between the date the user selected (@date parameter) and the day before that.
i just clicked on Advanced mode in Column Group, and then in Row Group Side i set Fixed Data=true for first top static. I'm using local report not server report and i'm displaying that local report in Reportviewer. Now also its not working....
Will the width property of a column be able to be set at run-time (i.e. ability to set the width of a column to an expression) in SQL Reporting Services 2008? One problem I have seen is the inability to set the width of columns in a report when you you have several columns whose order is determined based on parameters.
Lets say I have 2 columns in a report and two fields from the database which will populate those columns: 1 field that is varchar(5) and one which is varchar(50). If I do not know which column each field will go to until runtime how am I supposed to adjust the column width? Letting the column width be set by an expression would solve everything as I could pass the width in to the report. As it stands now, I would have to set each column's width to accomodate a field of type varchar(50) in order to avoid wrapping of data.
You could say just create 2 reports, one for each case, but what if I had 15 fields? 20?how to dynamically set the width of a column? Will the width of a column be able to be set at run-time in SQL Server Reporting Services 2008 via expression or some other means?
I am creating a Matrix report using SSRS/Visual Studio 2008 as below:
Jan Feb March April May June July Aug Sept Oct
A & B are customers. The values represent sales for each month.I have got most parts in place except the Month are displayed in random order (1,10,2,3,4,5,6 and so on).I have tried the option to create a calculated column with month numbers and change group properties but that did not work.how to get it to sort display as 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10.
I see a Rank function on SQL Server 2005 and this is exactly what I want. I am writing a Reporting Services report on Sql Server 2000 and the Rank function is not available on either software. The following is my data and what I want...
Name Value Rank
A 5 2
B 5 2
C 6 1
D 4 4
E 2 5
F 1 6Any ideas on how to code a rank function on SS 2000 or Reporting Services?
I have a field on my report that uses the following expression to determine the commission amount for each order line. It works correctly to get the commission amount for each line, however, I need to get a total of the commission amount for each Salesperson.
My report is grouped in the following manner:
Salesperson, Type of Sale, Invoice Number, then the detail invoice line items (where the formula below reside). How can I get the totals for the Salesperson and the Type of Sale?
=IIF(Fields!PartIsSerialized.Value=True, (Sum(Fields!OrderLineSubtotal.Value)/Fields!Quantity.Value),Sum(Fields!OrderLineSubtotal.Value)) * IIF( Fields!TransactionType.Value Like "*USED*", (Parameters!CommissionRateUsed.Value*.01),
I have table which has 5 columns(col1,col2,col3,col4,col5) very simple and some data .
I would like to create a tabular report datasets on the report like shown below with grouping on col1
like col1 some static text and dynamic text ------------------------ col1 col2 col3 col4 data data data data ------------------------ col1 some static & dynamic text ------------------------ col1 col2 col3 col4 data data data data ------------------------
Note I need to keep all the tables on the same page and when exported in excel they should come on same page sheet.
In Report Builder 1.0 you could drag a column to a filter and see the data before select the values for the filter.I can't find a way to do that in report builder 3.0. is it possible to see the data of a column in Report builder or SSRS?
I have to display three months name as column name in ssrs reports. These month column will be dynamically. So i have to display the column dynamically.
I have a matrix table with row groups of a date and addresses and also a column group which produces 3 columns and values with in these column.I have a "Total" column based on a Count of the column groups which gives a number.How do you hide all rows where the "Total" column is less then 1? There will be results which still needs the date and addresses groups.
My problem is specific to the ReportViewer control. The report displays correctly in every other way (ssrs server viewer, visual studio preview, visual studio 'Run', etc)The aspx page hosting the control has two controls, the reportviewer control (assembly 10.0.0.0), and a scriptmanager control asyncrendering = 'true' and processingmode = 'remote'.So the columns are not 'always visible' with the reportviewer but they are with every other renderer that i've tried.
The report i'm testing is just a simple table with a couple groupings (built using the wizard). To enable the fixed headers I went to the groupings view and changed the "FixedData" property of the first Static member to true per instructions.
For my report I am trying to display images that are pulled from a database. Images are from separate records. I have the records I need in a dataset and now I want to set a Table Cell value to the field corresponding to the image. However, the next images/(records) are displayed on the next row (as expected i guess). How do I set the the records/values to be displayed across a single row?
I developed a SSRS report, the problem is i dont have data in DEV server. So i dont know how to adjust the column lengths in ssrs report. is there any property so that the column length can be adjusted dynamically based on the data length whenever data is available in production.
I am getting extra column while exporting SSRS report into excel but those columns not in my report. How to avoid these columns please find the attached screen shot with red circle.
I've created a Report Builder Column chart with months as the x-axis (category) and revenue as the y-axis (value). This correctly displays the revenue for each month, but I'd like to display a running total of the revenue for the year.
I'm currently displaying: Jan $2 Feb $1 Mar $4
I want to display: Jan $2 Feb $3 Mar $7
I know this is possibly using the RunningTotal formula in Reporting Services, but I'd like to do this in Report Builder so the users can change and create their own graphs with running totals. Is there a way to do this in Report Builder?
My report has two data sets that hold inventory from two different departments.
ds_DeptA and ds_DeptB
I have a table, that pulls the DeptB status of DeptA record and displays it. This returns empty when the lookup fails to make a match, which is fine. Typically means DeptB does not have the record yet. I need to count these empty (null) feilds and populate it in a Text box outside of the table.
I just can't figure out the syntax with multiple datasets. I can't use the lookup expression as part of the count expression since the count expression is not contained in a table that has a dataset.
table: ds_DeptA fields: ID Name date_set_to_DeptB <<Expr>> =Lookup(Fields!ID.Value,Fields!DeptA_ID.Value,Fields!DeptB_Status.Value, "ds_DeptB")
I am displaying the red line in the beginning of the current week column in the matrix table. But for few resources the red line is missing. For Example in below screenshot, refer the 'Adrian Larkin' resource. Here is the SSRS report border expression which is comparing the [TimeByDay] with the current Week First Monday Date to display the red bar -
Here is the dataset result set. If you refer the column [TimeByDay], it has no record for the date 11/05/2015 for the Adrian resource as he has no assignment for the date 11-05-2015.display the red missing line red bar using the expression or any other solution.
Hello Everyone I've created a report with a simple dataset that is similar to this
City , RequestID, Request Amount, ClaimID, ClaimAmount El Monte 791 52,982.00 2157 41,143.75 El Monte 3691 11,838.00 3140 8,231.14 El Monte 3691 11,838.00 3141 990.00 El Monte 3691 11,838.00 3142 2,615.00
So I group by City, RequestID. On the first group I specified the expression to be City and in the header I list the city and in the footer I list the sum of Request amount. On the second group I specified the group by Request so in the header I placed requestID and on the footer I placed Request Amount. I set request information to hide the duplicates and I even add =Sum(Fields!RequestApprovedGrandTotal.Value,"GroupByRequestID") the scope of the group. But this is what I get:
For requestID = 3691 for Request Amount is 35,514.00 not 11,838.00. All the claim sums are correct and they are located on the detail row.
I've read that a work around is to create multiple dataset but I honestly believe that something as simple as this should work on the reporting server 2000. So I've come to the conclusion that I must be doing something wrong. Can someone give me a hand on this. Thanks.
I have a simple matrix with a row group that is basically a name. I want to sort a list of 10 or so names based on a count. I also have a column grouping -basically 1 years worth of month end dates. I want to sort on the count on the most recent date, so I set the expression to:
Version 2.2.32.7 1.0.0.0 2.0.0.0 1.2.0.0 2.1.8.8 1.4.11.0
I want to sort this field interactively.I have already sorted other fields, but as this field is text but has decimal data, its not sorting properly. How do I do this correctly? Once sorted ascending, report should show
Version 1.0.0.0 1.2.0.0 1.4.11.0 2.0.0.0 2.1.8.8 2.2.32.7
ID Name Date 1 A null 2 B 01/01/2012 3 C 01/02/2013
Also, I have a sort parameter @sort and values are (Name, ID, Date)
I want to apply page break whenever @sort=Name. There should be no page break when user selects @sort = ID or Date. Page break should happen only when @sort value = Name
it should be like this...
Page 1: ID Name Date 1 A null Page 2: ID Name Date 2 B 01/01/2012 Page 3: ID Name Date 3 C 01/02/2013
