I've created a horizontal report using a matrix according to the quite useful article Horizontal Tables, but there's one thing I'm trying to do that I'm not having any luck figuring out how to do, and that is creating a footer column for a column group that contains a sum of the values in some of its columns.
In other words, here's how I would like to have it look...

The fields in the dataset are Month, Tier1, Tier2, Year and Quarter. I've created a group on Year & Quarter, tried right clicking and selecting Subtotal, but that seems to add a subtotal column after every month, not at the end of the quarter group as I want.
Any ideas on what I need to do? Is this even possible?
I want to have two lines of column headers.( with 7 columns in parent columns header)
and 7 columns in child column header.
The first column header will show a parent record.
And after the parent record i want to show the next child related horizontal column headers and will show all child record related to the above parent record.
its a one to many: 1 parent record and below all child records for that parent record.
can i use subreports controls to show all child records of the parent.
I have a report that has three levels of grouping including headers (containing titles) and footers (containing summary values). I would like to programatically show/hide these header/footer sections based on a Show/Hide paramter. Is that possible? Currently I work around the problem by just having two physical reports (one with the header/footers, one without)
I have an image stored in a dataset that I would like to place in the page header and footer. Unfortunately dataset fields can not be placed in headers/footers.
Embedded pics in the project and/or report are NOT an option as the report must pull the image from the database. UNLESS there is a way to embed it FROM the dataset.
Normally I use =ReportItems!FieldName, but this doesn't seem to work when dealing with images.
I put the image in the header row the table holding the report information, but there are some pitfalls. Consider the following: put the Image in the top left cell of the header rows (A1) , put my Report Title in Cell (A2) and finally put =Now() in cell (B2).
When the report renders Cell (A1) has grown to accomodate the size of the image, Cell (A2) is fine, but cell (A3 - the date-) is pushed down...as expected (boooo!)
I used the following function =Fields!ReportTitle.Value & chr(10) & chr(13) & Fields!ReportDate.Value in (A2) a slick solution, but the padding is different and I need different font sizes and weights. (...almost)
I moved the image in (a1) and the rest of the fields following respecfully (B1, C1, D1...) but with parameters the header is now practically half the page (...ok so that was a bit of an stretch)
I tried the RepeatsWith property and couldn't get it to work???? Am I using it correctly? I have a table in the body of a report (table1). Above it, I place the image. In the image properties, I choose RepeatWith and select table1, I expect to see the image repeat on each page, but that is not the case. I'm probably missing a simple explanation.
I even tried to pass the image as a parameter. URRRNT! At least with my experience.
Have I exhausted all possibilities without extensive code?
All I'm trying to do is line up the Image with the report Title/date/parameter values in the HEADER making the report look pretty.
I have designed some reports and kept these reports in the report server.
My question is: I want to change report header and footer values dynamically and save the new values in the report template, when the user enters new velues in ASP.NET GUI.
Next time if the user opens the same file the report should display the recent values.
Please help me in passing the parameters from ASP.NET app to SQL Reports and saving the parameters in the report template.
I have developed a report in ssrs 2005. While exporting the report to excel 2007, i have a problem in displaying the footer values in spreadsheet. Moreover, in the page footer of the report, i have added a few condtions so as to display one of the textbox's values in the last page alone and the rest in all of the pages! But when i look in to the page layout in excel, i get in all of the pages rather than having it in the last page.
Added to that a cell doesnt hold more than 255 characters in excel.
Is there a report viewer property that needs to be set to enable the horizontal scroll bar. My reports are being cut off at the end of the iframe. I have several other reports that do show the horizontal scroll bar, but for some reason all my reports in the newly created project do not allow horizontal scrolling. Vertical scrolling is still available.
We are generating RDL file on the fly using a XSLT. We are trying to implement an auto width to all the columns dislpayed in the Report. Is Automatic horizontal width for column supported in RDL? If so how? If not is there is any workaround for it?
We tried using CanGrow and CanShrink tags, but those are for only vertical.
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 am working on complex invoice document that handles various types of invoicing, credit, and progress bill customer facing documents. Â I am faced with same problem I see many SSRS devs posting on. Â And that is extra blank pages, being generated because the report width exceeds the width of the page.
My problem is I cannot shrink the horizontal width of the tablix and therefore the report width either...
While I would have done things differently if developing from scratch, the tablix in question has only one column and objects contained in rectangles are placed in the row/column cell.....The link to the image below shows the row I am currently working on. Â Essentially all the client wants a columnar report with column lines, closed footers, etc... Â so rather redoing the whole tablix, which I still might do, I am using rectangles with the column then lining them up. Â Anyway, that is a whole 'nuther post. Â My specific questions are: Â
Invoice in Report Builder
1. In the image I have selected the parent rectangle. Â The children are other rectangles and the data is with grandchildren textboxes that exist within those rectangles. Â I clearly have a bit of right side white space in the main parent rectangle, but there is no sizing tool on a hover... just move tool. Â And if I change the rectangle size in the prop form it just snaps back to the cell width. Â How do I size the parent rectangle and keep if from expanding.
Here I am guessing that to actually reduce the horizontal width of tablix and then the report, I have to first decrease the parent width of the rectangles that occur in each row?
How to insert a row number for a zone wise(ie group by zone column) in ssrs report in zone column  i should get zone1 only once (should not get Zone1,zone1, zone1 -3 times)

I'm having a fight with Reporting Services at the minute when trying to compute an average at the row group level for a value summed in a column group.I have the following column groups:
Year Month Date
And the following row groups:
Region Product SubType (hidden, data at the date level is summed to Product)
At the moment I'm computing the average for SubType for each Date at the Product level (giving a decimal value), so for each day I end up with a nice average, that works. However I am unable to average that average over the whole Year for a Product. The issue being that I'm trying to combine Row Groups (Product) and Column Groups (Date/Year)
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
= Switch (                                    MID(Fields!protocol_id.Value,1,7)="THERAPY",                                Sum(IIF(Fields!status.Value = "CO", CDbl(Fields!TX_CO.Value),      Nothing)),  MID(Fields!protocol_id.Value,1,7) = "GENERAL" and                          MID(Fields!program_id.Value,1,6) = "INTAKE",                             Sum(IIF(Fields!status.Value = "CO",
[code]...
Is there any way to not display the expression in the Total columns unless the report is expanded?
i dont't know how to select row with max column value group by another column. I have T-SQL
CREATE PROC GET_USER AS BEGIN SELECT T.USER_ID ,MAX(T.START_DATE) AS [Max First Start Date] , MAX(T.[Second Start Date]) AS [Max Second Start Date], T.PC_GRADE,T.FULL_NAME,T.COST_CENTER,T.TYPE_PERSON_NAME,T.TRANSACTION_NAME,T.DEPARTMENT_NAME ,T.BU_NAME,T.BRANCH_NAME,T.POSITION_NAME FROM (
I am having a big issue trying to resolve this problem. Hope to layout it out well enough to understand.
I have a dataset like this.
Name Sales$ Quota Month ----------------------------------------------- John Doe 10 10 1/1/2006 John Doe 20 10 1/1/2006 John Doe 15 10 1/1/2006 John Doe 18 10 1/1/2006 ----------------------------------------------- Jane Doe 12 5 1/1/2006 Jane Doe 6 5 1/1/2006 ----------------------------------------------- Jack Black 18 15 1/1/2006 Jack Black 22 15 1/1/2006 Jack Black 14 15 1/1/2006 -----------------------------------------------
The issue I am having is quota is truely only the one value, not a sum of the quota. So John Doe should have a quota of 10, not 40. In the report layout, I simply do a max or first to get the names quota. The issue is doing a grand total in a table footer. When you do a sum, you of course get a sum of each value, not a sum of the distinct values for each name (which is the grouping of the report).
If you add all the total quota up we get 95. If I take a count of quota you get 9. Divide 95 by 9 you do not get the correct quota total. I need to get a total of 30 for quota. If I take a count of each name, and divide the total quota for that group by the count...I get the correct number.
Example: John Doe would total to 40 for quota...divide by 4 you get 10...which is correct
I would then need to total all these grouping totals up for a grand total in a Table footer (not a group footer, but a table footer).
I have tried runningvalue to no avail. Tried using reportitems! but cannot do a sum in a report footer for reportitems!.
Any thoughts? I was hoping I could use reportitems! to reference the cell name, but as I have seen in many posts this is not possible in a table footer.
Any help or push in the right direction would be wonderful. If this needs further clarification, please let me know.
Hi All. I am building an SSIS job that will export some data to a csv then ftp it to a remote site. I have been able to create the csv alright, but I need to add header and footer lines to the csv.
The header must be:
Filename+ crlf (will not change) File type+ crlf (will not change)
Create date+ crlf (obviously changes) -- format is mmddyyyy as text
And the footer is:
Filename+ crlf (will not change) File type+ crlf (will not change)
Create date+ crlf (obviously changes) -- format is mmddyyyy as text
Total rows+ crlf (obviously changes)
So I need to first open the file, count the number of rows, then add the header and footer lines.
I would like to do this as a step in ssis, as a function (not by calling a compiled assembly or anything like that). I have no experience with vb.net, and haven't been able to find any snippets on the web that seem to work. Can anybody lend a hand? thx. David
I have to import flat files with headers and footers. I found how not to import headers but still have issues with footers. Is there a quick way to do that?
I am creating a report in SSRS and the data is obtained through a stored procedure. One of the parameters is Begin_Date. This is simply a date field. I need to have it on the Page Header section. However, when I placed it there and ran the report, I received the following error -
Error2[rsFieldInPageSectionExpression] The Value expression for the textbox ‘begindate’ refers to a field. Fields cannot be used in page headers or footers.
Is there a way around? I have never faced such a problem when I created reports in Crystal or ActiveReports. Please let me know whether I am missing anything.
Is there a way to have the data rows begin on the same row as the group fields. For example if I have a student with multiple tests/scores, I want the tests/score to begin on the same line as the students name.
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 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....
If I group by ColA with the select statement as follows:
SELECT ColA, MAX(ColB), FROM Tabl1 GROUP BY ColA If for example for a1 the MAX(ColB) is b2, THEN I would like to include ColC in the select statement such that for a1 the resulting row would be:
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. Â I have 5 dates showing at any one time across the top. Â 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. Â Â
 - 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. Â So the difference between the date the user selected (@date parameter) and the day before that.Â
I am trying to create a TSQL statement or stored procedure that cantell me what users belong to what group and what groups have access towhat files. Can anyone help? Can I pull out a list of names fromActive Directory to use as my user list?
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.
