Displaying All On A Report When Select All Is Chosen From A Multi-value Parameter

Sep 28, 2007

Hi All

New user here. I've got a report with a couple of multi-value parameters and I'm displaying the selected values on the report using = Join(Parameters!ReportingGroup.Value, ", "). This works properly.

The users now want the report to display "All" if "Select All" is chosen, rather than showing the whole list.

Can anybody help me with this? I'm thinking of using an IIF statement in my expression, but have no idea how to define the condition?

Thanks in advance

Is There A Way To Select What Fields To Display On A Report From A Multi-value Parameter?

Feb 19, 2008

I am trying to figure out a way to toggle the visibility of attribute data based on a parameter. Specifically, I have a report that has many columns that an end-user may not want to see, depending on what they are using the report for. I know you can toggle visibilities on individual columns easily enough, however I want the user to be able to select which fields (at the attribute level) they want visible on the report up in the parameters, via a multi-value prompt.

Is this possible with reporting services 2005?

Thanks.

Multi-Select String Parameter Values Are Converted To N'Value1', N'Value2' In Clause When Report Is Run

Apr 14, 2008



I understand that Multi-Select Parameters are converted behind the scenes to an In Clause when a report is executed. The problem that I have is that my multi-select string parameter is turned into an in claused filled with nvarchar/unicode expressions like:


Where columnName in (N'Value1', N'Value2', N'Value3'...)

This nvarchar / unicode expression takes what is already a fairly slow-performing construct and just drives it into the ground. When I capture my query with Profiler (so I can see the In Clause that is being built), I can run it in Management Studio and see the execution plan. Using N'Values' instead of just 'Value1', 'Value2','Value3' causes the query performance to drop from 40 seconds to two minutes and 40 seconds. It's horrible. How can I make it stop!!!?

Is there any way to force the query-rewriting process in Reporting Services to just use plain-old, varchar text values instead of forcing each value in the list to be converted on the fly to an Nvarchar value like this? The column from which I am pulling values for the parameter and the column that I am filtering are both just plain varchar.

Thanks,

TC

Displaying Values For Multi-value Parameter

Dec 15, 2007

At the top of my report, if I want to display the selected value for a given
parameter, I can put this expression in a text box:

="The xyz param's value is: " & Parameters!paramXYZ.Label(0).ToString

How do I go about displaying all the selected values for a multi-value
parameter (one that has mulitple checkboxes in the drop-down list)? Is it
possible to do a for loop and iterate through the values of the param within
an expression? Something like

for i = 0 to Parameters!paramXYZ.Count - 1
mystring = mystring & ", " & Parameters!paramXYZ.Label(i).ToString

And then display mystring in the textbox? Or can I use a list control on the
report?


Thank you,

Reporting Services :: Displaying Report Parameter Based On Another Parameter

Aug 10, 2015

I am using report builder 3.0.

I have a report parameter called para1 which is a drop-down list and what I want to do is display another report parameter based on the para1 selection.

So for example, para1 contains a, b, c choices.  if a user selects b, I would like para2 to display but if the user selects a or c, I don't want the para2 to display.

Multi-value Parameter In Master Report Passing To Single Param Sub-report In A List.

Aug 20, 2007

Here's tricky one.

I have a fairly complex report that was given to me that was hard coded for single parameters. There is a dropdown for each market (created from a query in SSRS). The users have to run for each market each week.

Is there a way to use this report as a Sub-report inside a list of a master report and then use a mult-value parameter?

I want this multi-value parameter to build the values for the list and then run the "sub-report" for each value.

Essentially, I want to create a for each loop.

Any ideas?

Multi Value In Report Parameter Using MSVS Report Designer.

Aug 14, 2006

Hi All,

I have a question, How to user the Multi value in Visual Studio Report Designer.

My dataset contains the following

Select empno,empname,basicpay,deptcd from employee where deptcd in (substring(@gdept,1,4))

Here variable gdept is the report parameter. I am passing the value.
it works fine with single value.

( the source of gdept is a another dataset to list the deparment code+name,

Example

DEP1 - COMPUTER

DEP2 - ADMIN

DEP3 - FINANCE

)

when I preview, i have a combo box to select the department.

If I choose one deparment, it works fine.

If I choose more than one department or select all I have error message

"substring function requires 3 aruguments."

what is wrong is the query

Please advise.

 

Cheers,

Saleem

Multi Select Parameter From Function - Select All?

Sep 6, 2007



I am using RS 2000. I have a multi select parameter where I can select multiple states by separating with a comma. I am trying to figure out how to incorporate an "All" parameter.

Query:

Select [name], city, state, zipcode
From Golf inner join charlist_to_table(@State,Default)f on State = f.str

Function:

CREATE FUNCTION charlist_to_table
(@list ntext,
@delimiter nchar(1) = N',')
RETURNS @tbl Table (listpos int IDENTITY(1, 1) NOT NULL,
str varchar(4000),
nstr nvarchar(2000)) AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @pos int,
@textpos int,
@chunklen smallint,
@tmpstr nvarchar(4000),
@leftover nvarchar(4000),
@tmpval nvarchar(4000)
SET @textpos = 1
SET @leftover = ''
WHILE @textpos <= datalength(@list) / 2
BEGIN
SET @chunklen = 4000 - datalength(@leftover) / 2
SET @tmpstr = @leftover + substring(@list, @textpos, @chunklen)
SET @textpos = @textpos + @chunklen
SET @pos = charindex(@delimiter, @tmpstr)
WHILE @pos > 0
BEGIN
SET @tmpval = ltrim(rtrim(left(@tmpstr, @pos - 1)))
INSERT @tbl (str, nstr) VALUES(@tmpval, @tmpval)
SET @tmpstr = substring(@tmpstr, @pos + 1, len(@tmpstr))
SET @pos = charindex(@delimiter, @tmpstr)
END
SET @leftover = @tmpstr
END
INSERT @tbl(str, nstr) VALUES (ltrim(rtrim(@leftover)),
ltrim(rtrim(@leftover)))
RETURN

GO


Anyone have any ideas?

Multi Value Report Parameter

Feb 1, 2007

HI there.

I have been working on this for quite some time and I can not figure out what I am doing wrong.
I have a report filter called ItemFilter and I have declared as a report parameter where the multi value checkbox is checked. The values from this filter are coming from the item table.
SO the users drilldown on the filter when they run the report an select the Items that they would like to display info for. I had the following code before in the where

where
([CRONUS International Ltd_$Item].No_ = @itemfilter). This only worked if they selected on item from the list.

I want them to be able to select multiple Items or all. The code above did not work because there were commas separating one item from the other and I was getting an error.

I changed to

whrere

([CRONUS International Ltd_$Item].No_ IN (@itemfilter)).

Now this only returns the first item that I enter on my Itemfilter parameter.

Does anyone have any clue in regards to this ?? I am sure I am using the wrong syntax, but I do not know what to change it too.



Thanks

Multi Select Type-in Parameter

Nov 22, 2006

Hi All

Can anyone tell me whether or not it is
possible to multi select when you have a parameter
that is set as non-querried in order for it to be
typed instead of selected.

My users prefer typing the values and selecting
more than one. But at the moment I cant give them both..

I'm using SSRS with SSAS cube all in BI all 2005

Please help. I suspect that if it's possible it may just be a
syntax thing but I am yet to find it.

Thanks in advance

Multi Select Parameter Problem

May 17, 2007

I have a multi-select parameter for a report, but If I select more than one value the report does not return any data. However, if only one value is selected data for that value is returned. I am using the IN option for the SP parameter.



SELECT Code,Description FROM Product

WHERE Code > 0 AND Description IN (@Description)
I am using SP2 on SQL2005, also I do not have the option of Select-All which I expected to be present.
Any help would be most appreiated.

Select All As Default For A Multi-value Parameter

Feb 22, 2007

Hi!

I have the following problem:

In my report I have -among others- a multi-value parameter, populated by a query (so I cannot a priori know the content of the list).

I would like my report to start without any user choice, through default parameters, so what I need is the "select all" choice selected by default. How can I achieve this?

[The only default value I am able to pass to the multi-value parameter is one of the elements populating the list, statically writing it in the "Non-queried" section of "Default values": "From query" option seems not to work for multi-valued]

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Multi-Select Parameter Issues - DataType Also?

Jan 9, 2007

I've tried several things to get my multi-select parameter to take more than one value but it seems to only take the 1st one I input. I've been working on this for days and been trying alternate methods but nothing seems to work. I think my first question is if I'm planning on using a parameter as a multi-select parameter what is the data type I should call that parameter. In my case here, the evt_key is unique and will always be 36 characters. I cant imagine in my lifetime that I'm going to have any more than 20 items in the multiselect. Am I looking over something or any other suggestions? I also attached my sp at the bottom.

Thanks

Expression Problem Using A Multi-Select Parameter

Apr 24, 2007

I have a rectangle region in a report that contains a graph and a table. I want to display that list region only when the user selects a "Select All" from a multi-select report parameter. This rectangle region is used only to display summary data for All Agencies.



My report also contains a list region with graphs and tables, where I display data for each agency (my detail group), and page-break on each agency.



The problem I am experiencing occurs when using the Expression Builder for the Visibility property for my rectangle and list regions. Since a multi-select parameter is an array, I am forced to select an element in my paramater such as =Parameters!Agency.Value(0). When the user chooses "(Select All)", the first element is the first agency in the list. I don't want that.



How can I get Reporting Services to display a rectangle or list region when "Select All" is chosen, and to hide that rectangle or list region when one or more agencies are chosen from a multi-select parameter?



I have tried using Agency.Label and I've tried other expressions such as Parameters!Agency.Count = Count(Agency.Value), etc, without success.

Text Field To Display Date Parameter Chosen

Mar 26, 2008

Hi,

I'm attempting to use the following code to display either 'All' or the date value selected by the user from a Report parameter;

=iif(Parameters!FromCheckOutDateDate.Value.ToString = "[Check Out Date].[Date].[All]", "All", "From Date: " + Parameters!FromCheckOutDateDate.Value.ToString.Substring(26,10))

This is throwing an error ('#Error').

I can use the following code with no error, though its not as useful;

=iif(Parameters!FromCheckOutDateDate.Value.ToString = "[Check Out Date].[Date].[All]", "All", "Not all")

I can even use this to display the selected value (i.e. 2007-01-01);

Parameters!FromCheckOutDateDate.Value.ToString.Substring(26,10)

Why can't I use them both in my iif statement?

Can someone please help?

How To Display The Selected Multi-value Report Parameter/s In A Text Box?

Mar 19, 2008



Hi All,

I have a report parameter which i multivalue. I want to display the selected value in a text box. I have written the following code :


=Switch(Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Count = 1,Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Value(0),

Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Count = 2,(Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Value(0) & ", " & Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Value(1)))



Which suggests that if only one of the two multivalue parameter id is selected display the same (Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Value(0)).

This works fine when i select both the attributes but throws an exception "Index was outside the bounds of the array" when i select only one of the parameters. Can anyone help me with that?

Also i want this report parameter to allow null i.e. if a user does not select anything he should still be able to view the report.
In case of regular dropdowns i have added a <Null> value to the existing values and set the default to null. But in case of multi-value, it does not give an option of adding <Null>

Multi-value, Non-queried, Report Parameter Expression Problem

Nov 30, 2007

I need to use a non-queried report parameter to filter a dataset for a report.

The dataset column I'm filtering is numeric. The dataset is not a sproc, it's a table in SQL Server that I am querying.

The Non-queried parameter values (Multi-value) are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, >=6.

Selecting the >=6 throws the error: "Error converting data type nvarchar to numeric."

Which sucks.

Because...when I go straight into my dataset I can filter my numeric column with the exact same values (=1 or =3 or >=6) and everything works fine. The error is only raised when I use the @Parameter in the dataset.

I've tried eveything, researched everywhere online and I can't find any guidance anywhere.

Reporting Services :: Multi Value Integer Parameter For A Report

Jul 2, 2015

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.

Keep A Multi-valued Parameter Cleared From Selections Until The User Select His Choice

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.

Reporting Services :: Null Value Not Appearing In SSRS Multi-Select Parameter List

Apr 16, 2009

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.
