I have a report that consists of three nested group levels. Each level can be expanded/collapsed. I wanted to have at each level the summed values:
e.g.
+ Group Header 1 Sum1 Sum2 etc..
+ Group Header 2 Sum1 Sum2 etc..
+ Group Header 3 Sum1 Sum2 etc..
Rather I have had to output the aggregated values like so ..
+ Group Header 1
+ Group Header 2
+ Group Header 3
Total Group Footer Sum1 Sum2 etc..
Total Group Footer Sum1 Sum2 etc..
Total Group Footer Sum1 Sum2 etc..
Is there a way to display the aggregated values at the header level of the grouping. I thought this could be possible if I could hide the Group Footer and directly reference the footer sum total values in the header. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have an SSRS 2012 table report with groups; each group is broken ie. one group for one page, and there are multiple groups in multiple pages.
'GroupName' column has multiple values - X,Y,Z,......
I need to group 'GroupName' with X,Y,Z,..... ie value X in page 1,value Y in page 2, value Z in page 3...
Now, I need to display another column (ABC) in this table report (outside the group column 'GroupName'); this outside column itself is another column header (not a group header) in the table (report) and it derives its name partly from the 'GroupName' Â values:
Example:
Value X for GroupName in page 1 will mean, in page 1, column Name of ABC column must be ABC-X Value Y for GroupName in page 2 will mean, in page 2, column Name of ABC column must be ABC-Y Value Z for GroupName in page 3 will mean, in page 3, column Name of ABC column must be ABC-Z
ie the column name of ABC (Clm ABC) Â must be dynamic as per the GroupName values (X,Y,Z....)
Page1:
GroupName          Clm ABC-X
X
Page2:
GroupName          Clm ABC-Y
Y
Page3:
GroupName          Clm ABC-Z
Z
I have been able to use First(ReportItems!GroupName.Value) in the Page Header to get GroupNames displayed in each page; I get X in page 1, Y in page 2, Z in page 3.....
However, when I use ReportItems (that refers to a group name) in the Report Body outside the group,
I get the following error:
Report item expressions can only refer to other report items within the same grouping scope or a containing grouping scope
I need to get the X, Y, Z ... in each page for the column ABC.
I have been able to use this - First(Fields!GroupName.Value); however, I get ABC-X, ABC-X, ABC-X in each of the pages for the ABC column, instead of ABC-X in page 1, ABC-Y in page 2, ABC-Z in page 3, ...
I have a need to show a row inside a table group to simulate a header row for the data rows inside the group. The table will not have a real header or footer. Thanks for the help.
I have a matrix with two row groups and one column group with about 6 items in it. I have about 2100 rows at the lowewst row group level. This report was built solely for excel export. The first row group has about 20 items and controls the visibility of the other group. When I toggle the visibility of the second row group, how can I make the the header of the first row group copy down for each row of the other row group? The first row group is the Section and the second is Mnemonic.
I need to add a group header to my report. What the heck am I doing wrong, when I add new row above/below my group it adds another group row. How do I make a header within a group?
*Notes = Table and Group2 footers are hidden and contains nothing. The last column is detailing what level each line is and not actually part of the table.
I believe my issue is with the SUM function and how or where to place it. In the Payment field, the SUM function is adding correctly, but for the Fee and Value field, the SUM fuction is adding as if every line item in the payment field had the fee and value amount, hence the huge amount.
How can make the Fee field total to $235 (45+85+105) instead of $705 (45+45+45+85+85+85+105+105+105); the same goes for the Value field of $135 (23+47+65) instead of $405 (23+23+23+47+47+47+65+65+65).
Below are the expressions I have in place at the Group1 Footer for the Claim, Fee, Value, and Payment fields respectively:
=CountDistinct(Fields!ClaimNumber.Value
=Sum(Fields!dAmount.Value)
=Sum(Fields!Value.Value)
=Sum(Fields!cAmount.Value)
I've tried playing with the scope, but to no avail. Any ideas or maybe I'm doing it all wrong? It's almost as if I need a SumDistinct if such a thing exist.
In the meantime, I'm doing some serious researching. Thanks!
I have a table with a group. I have one row of the group that is the header for the detail section. How can I suppress the row header in the group if there is no data in the detail section for a group value? I was thinking something along the line of setting the visibilty of the row header to an expression based on the existence of data in the detail, but don't know how to go about this.
How can I alter the visibility of the group headers when they don't have access into the scope of the groups themselves ? At startup, I only want to show group1's header. If I expand an item in group 1, then I only want to show headers for group 1 and 2, etc ...
I have a report that is being called via stored proc, and i want to group by contract. when report gets generated i get multiple contracts info. but will be grouped/sorted by contract.
please how can i have a group header and also a group footer to show a summary of each contract information with some calculated fields in it.
i may get 100 records related to 10 contracts , 10 rows for each contract.
as soon as the first contract info is shown on the report it has to show a summary related to the first contract in the group footer, and then continue populating the second contract info and so on.
Please i am totally new to reporting and help would be appreciated. thank you all.
I am new to SSRS 2005 and so far the only way I can figure out how to edit groups in a table is to right click on the group header or footer and select Edit Group. But how would you edit the group if you chose to not have a header or footer? And how would you delete the group for that matter? I'm looking for something like the Crystal Reports Group Expert.
Need to export a report into csv. The report contains a table with one group, the group header contains infomation that needs to be shown once at the start of the csv. Currently the group header repeats for every record in the detail. How can I stop the group header from repeating.
I am using the fixed header functionality in reporting services (SS2005) to keep the 3 left-hand-most columns of a table always visible as my report scrolls to the right. To do this I set the "fixed header" value for those columns to true.
My problem is that some of the group headers resize as I scroll to the right - everything looks normal before I start scrolling, but immediately as I move the scrollbar, some of my group headers grow (row height increases), throwing the headers out of line with the data row in the columns that aren't fixed.
It seems it's only certain headers that grow - they alternate between growing and normal size. I can't find any differences in the properties of the textboxes between those whose height increases and those that don't.
I have tried setting the CanGrow property in the relevant textboxes to false, to cater for the possibility that something might be trying to wrap - that didn't make any difference (which is what I expected, seeing as the text is never wider than the textbox width).
Does anyone have any ideas as to what the problem might be?
Hi, I am currently trying to create a report the dynamicaly groups from parameters. The grouping part works fine but I need to show the parameter label name or the field referenced by a parameter.
This is the expression I have written to do this. The problem seems to be is with the true part of the iif statement. The false displays fine in the group header. The Parameters!Param2.Label also displays if used on its own.
This is the error that is fires back when I run the report.
The Value expression for the textbox €˜textbox4€™ contains an error: The expression referenced a non-existing field in the fields collection.
I accidentally unclicked the check-boxes for group-header and group footer - I meant to leave the group header in. Now, I can't get to the group to edit it! Is there any way I can get back to it?
I have a need to show a "header" row inside a table group. The row will look like a header but the table has no true Header or Footer. The table will group by the a person's name and inside each group will be a set of rows. If I put a row between the group row and the inside data row, it will show for each row inside the group. I only want this "header" row to show once for each group and before any of the actual data rows in the group.
I have several row groups in a tablix. I want to keep header visible through scrolling.and i also want the first row group to visible, only the first.
So I set the first row group's properties fixedData to TRUE and keep other row groups to FALSE then when running the report i got error "FixedData is not allowed in row TablixMember,unless it is also set on the first row TablixMember"
Now I think this is not possible. or is there anyway to make it works?
I have a report with two groups and a detail row (subtotals & totals to follow). When I add the child (detail row) it pushes out to the right of the parent column. Is there any way to start the detail row all the way back to the left hand side of the page? I lose a lot or real estate with the group descriptions.
I need some help. I am writing a report in SSRS 2005 that I then need to export to Excel. When I put a report header I would expect the header to not display in the Excel spreadsheet until the Print Preview or the Print. The report footer works just fine I put some text in the footer, and it shows up in the footer. The header though, shows up as a row in the Excel spreadsheet that then causes columns to merge. How do I get the report header to act like a page header?
I am making a book-like report, I am using a report that has a header and calling a sub-report that has it's own header. However the sub-report header is not showing on the parent report. Parent report header is prevailing over the sub-report. Is it possible to have both headers displaying?
I have a report that I created and the report was working until I added some fields to a group footer row in a table.
My table has 5 group levels. I had information displaying in the 5th level header group and detail. It was working fine. Then I added some fields to the 4th level group footer. Now it displays only the Page header, Table header, and the 4th level group footer data.
What happened to the rest of the data?
All the cells and rows I want to display have the Visibility Hidden set to false. I tried removing the objects I added (to the 4th level group footer) and it still does not work. Is this a bug or did I set something that is hiding the data.
There is a one header in the report, when I publish and hit the report in IE(internet explor) the header appears fine on first page when I go to next page this header does not appear.
But in mozilla the header is visible on every page of the report. so it is working fine in mozilla.
I need to create a report that totals all EarnedHours broken down by category for a student for a date range. However, courses can be taken multiple times, but should not count more than once during the date range (the highest EarnedHours should be used in the report preferably).
Currently, I've approached this with an SP that creates a #temp table with CourseID, CourseArea, and MAX(EarnedHours) GROUP BY CourseID for the date range and student specified, then I'm selecting SUM(EarnedHours) GROUP BY CourseArea from that.
Somehow, my current solution seems inelegant, but I haven't been able to figure out a good way around it. It seems a real waste to create a temp table, especially since this is a high-use SP and the actual average subset of records involved is really low (under 50). I'm probably missing something I should already know... any ideas?
Hi, I have a SQL issue which I know can be solved ( reasonably simply ) but I can't seem to figure it out ( sometimes hard to think in sets ). Basically I have a table:
I am trying to do a count but only if the sum of a value is greater/less than 0.
The error I get is:
The value expression for the textbox 'textbox146' contains an aggregate function (or RunningValue or RowNumber functions) in the argument to another aggregate function (or RunningValue). Aggregate functions cannot be nested inside other aggregate functions.
I've been researching a likely common problem with reporting services: the inability to get an aggregate of an aggregate. One particular discussion thread comes close to solving my specific problem:
Here's my problem. I have a table that groups data per month based on Count(). I'd like to get the max(count()) -- i.e., which month has the highest count?
For example:
JAN 30 FEB 20 MAR 25
I'd like to identify the month that has the max count. In this case, I'd like to capture the aggregate value "30" as being the max value of the three months displayed.
My goal is to embed a horizontal stacked-bar chart into the table (to the left of the count() values). Various types of medical services are being counted per month: Inpatient Stay, Outpatient Service, PCP visit. The key to displaying the horizontal stacked-bar charts is to make sure the maximum value of the chart is the same for all charts -- i.e., I need to know which month has the highest count and then set that value as the max limit on the chart.
Robert Bruckner's technical article on "Get More out of SQL Server Reporting Services Charts" briefly touches on the topic of embedded charts in a table, but doesn't go into the level of detail I'm considering.
I've also come across related information from SSW Rules to Better Reporting Services. Similar to Robert's article, SSW doesn't address scaling an in-line chart based on data that is aggregated, but rather scaling the in-line chart based on the values found in a specified data field.
Ultimately, I'd like to create an in-line bar chart that appropriate shows the month of JAN as having the longest horizontal bar, and FEB/MAR having appropriately scaled smaller bars.
So I already no this can't be done... but I need a suitable alternative (if one exists) so I don't have to competely re-write this already too huge query. Anyways, in my select I have something like this: sum( case when code in (1,2,3,4) then 0 else 1 end ) as total which has now increase from four static values to a more dynamic format, that being a table with 47 values which may shrink or grow over time. Attempting the following fails: sum( case when code in (select code_id from ExcludedCodes) then 0 else 1 end ) as total because apparently you can't use selects or aggregates within an aggregate. So any ideas on how I can get this working... is there no Array or List type variable I could just substitute in? I've already tried using a Table Variable, but that failed as well. Please keep in mind, this is one line of a very large select containing many other fields and aggregates (on a fair amount of joins) which is used in at least four differerent reporting queries. If there is no quick and easy replacement trick I can do just let me know so I can start re-writing all of them (which is seriously going to make my head hurt).
