May I know how can I make a simple calculation in reporting services using below formula:-
Column
B
C
D
E
Row
Group
January
February
Amt
Calc
Amt
Calc
3
a
100
=B3/B3
50
=D3/D3
4
b
200
=B4/B3
10
=D4/D3
5
c
100
=B5/B3
30
=D5/D3
6
d
150
=B6/B3
80
=D6/D3
I have build above table in reporting services. Row a, b, c, d are all belong to the same reportitems. However, I need to make a division using B3 as a based, where group = a.
I tried to make an expression with logic but it doesn't work:
Calc = reportitems!Amt.value / reportitems!Amt.value where reportitems!Group.Value='a'
I don't know whether anyone has this problem, but I am definitely not using the right keywords to search for a thread.
My situation is this...
I have a dataset that has values to fill cells to multiple tables in a report. However, I only want to select specific data from the dataset to fill textboxes and others. I cannot change the stored procedure, but the sample of the data is shown below:-
I know it looks weird, but the row really represents which "row" or textbox is it to fill with the Val. The Stat Column is just a way to make sure that I am filling the right values.
so my new report would have multiple tables to denote different categories. In my first table, I tried putting the cells as follows:- (expressions are highlighted in italics and bold)
I tried putting it into the headerrows instead of DetailRows, and it ended up printing the last value. Is there anyway to do this ? print all the values out in one table ? I tried using textboxes, but I think I got my expression wrong.
and it give me an error The value expression for the textbox €˜textbox5€™ contains an error: [BC30455] Argument not specified for parameter 'FalsePart' of 'Public Function IIf(Expression As Boolean, TruePart As Object, FalsePart As Object) As Object'.
Appreciate any advice or suggestion for this scenario !
Is there a way to update a specific cell(s) in an excel? I have an excel with charts and graphs which use as data source a range of cells from another sheet within the same spreadsheet. Is there a way update a specific cell from within the sql using openrowset()... ?
Hi, I'm working with MRS and I've got a table with a lot of entries. For each value in the table I'm trying to get the text colour to be set to 'red' when the value of the cell is less than 0. Otherwise remain black.
I can do this by setting the colour property cell by cell. But I have a lot of cells in the table. Is there a way to set the statement to apply to ALL cells in the table?
Basically I'm asking if there is a way to set the property in bulk instead of going through tediously cell by cell.
HI,I HAVE AN EXCEL SHEET WITH SOME DATA, I WANT TO IMPORT THAT DATA (CELLBY CELL WITH MANIPULATION) INTO THE SQL SERVER TABLES BY USING STOREDPROCEDURE(IF POSSIBLE).IF ANYBODY HAVE DONE SIMILER TYPE OF JOB OR KNOWING ABOUT IT, PLS. LETME KNOW.THANKS IN ADV.T.S.NEGI
I want to do is display the sum of textboxes in a group so I can have a subtotal for every group.
I tried these things:
Sum(ReportItems!txtbudget.Value).
I can't use Fields collection because the textbox value is from custom code so there are no Fields.
I searched for options on this and one option was supposed to be adding a field to the dataset. I tried this and I get "An error occured on the report server" when building the report before I even reference the field in the report.
I even wrote code to do the sum and passed in the ReportItem. I then get the error about the grouping scope.
I want the payroll sum to be the subtotal of each column. The budget values along with some other columns are from custom code that makes database calls (which was a workaround for another problem).
Object Object Title Budget Current Spent YTD Spent
I can add two reportitem controls, ie reportitems!begbal.value + reportitems!deposits.value, without a problem. However, when I add the 3rd reportitem control to the expression, ie + reportitems!withdrawals.value, some really funky arithmetic occurs. All of these controls I am referring to are in the same group footer.
I am having a problem viewing my footer on all pages of my report. I have created a page footer that reads ="The " & ReportItems("textbox213").Value I am getting the value on the first page only and then only getting "The" on the rest. My "PrintOnFirstPage" and "PrintOnLastPage" are both marked True in the Page Footer properties. I am completely confused. This is not the only textbox in my footer I have two others both which print on all pages, but neither of them use the ReportItems.
I've added a hidden field to my report so I can show the value in the page header using ReportItems. However it only works for the first page - the value is blank on subsequent pages. Does the hidden field need to appear on all pages of the report? Would I need to make it a hidden field in a repeated list or table?
I am trying to create a report which uses a table. I have typed manually each cell.
In the subtotal lines, on rows, I have used ReportItems expression. On rows it is working. However, on column, the similar ReportItems expression, instead of adding the values, it is concatenating. Could you please help?
I followed the instructions and the textbox named Color did indeed display alternate colors on the odd rows. However, when I tried to propogate the color to the whole row using the expression =ReportItems!color.Value for the value of the backgroundcolor property, it was ignored.
So I tried some custom code: Public Function GetColor() Dim retValue as String retValue = Me.ReportItems!Color.Value return retValue End Function
The syntax parser didn't like ReportItems either. I first tried it without the Me object and I got a message about requiring an object so I tried Me.
I have a sum on a reportitems cell in my header: =Sum(ReportItems!textbox1.Value)
When I run the report, it looks excellent. My issue is when I export it. When I export to Excel, it looks just like it did. When I export to PDF, it gives me a total per page, not for the report.
Does ReportItem behave differently when rendered between excel and PDF? Or is it because I am putting a SUM on a ReportItems cell?
I'm trying to get a data value to appear in the report footer on each page of my report. Using the technique described in various text books etc. I have placed a hidden text box in the report body, and the footer references this text box value.
The report is 4 pages long when I print preview it. The hidden field was initially placed near the top of the report body, so it is there on page 1 in print preview and the footer works on page 1. Pages 2,3,4 (where the hidden field ain't) just gets #Error in the footer.
If I simply move the hidden field further down in the report body so that now its on page 2 in print preview, then guess what - the footer now works on page 2 but errors everywhere else!
Why are ReportItems not known across the whole report? This is maddening. Does anyone know how to make a simple hidden text box value, that is referenced by the page footer, work so that every instance of the page footer shows the correct value?
A report I maintain has an extensive footer that appears on each page, populated with information I've stashed into invisible cells in the table's header. This works great, except in rare circumstances where the report includes a page that doesn't display the table at all--in which case the report errors when it attempts to print ("Object reference not set to an instance of an object").
Due to the requirements of the report, I cannot guarantee that the table will appear on every page, every time. Is there a way I can safely refer to the reportItems collection, in case of Nulls? I'll be okay with blank values in the footer in the cases where the page has no reportItems to work with, but I can't have the report blow up when printing.
I have two RDL files, one is main.rdl, the other one is sub.rdl.
In the body of main.rdl, I threw in a subreport that links to sub.rdl. Follow by the subreport is a table, in which has a textbox called mytitle. In the page footer, I added one text box that references to mytitle by using ReportItems!mytitle.Value.
When this report rendered in HTML or PDF format, it worked fine. However, when exporting to excel format, it failed. I figured it is because there isn't a ReportItem in the subreport called mytitle. I tried adding a dummy textbox into the subreport and called it mytitle, but again, no luck.
Did anyone ever encounter the same problem? Is there a work around way?
Im currently writing a report in SSRS which requires to take data in the fields, manipulate and perform functions on it then display it within its own textbox. For example the field Cost is manipulated so that a column will show the cost depreciated after 5 years.
Cost Final Cost
500 250
1000 634
700 500
Footer: Totals 1384
My problem is that within each group (as the data is grouped by its type) I need to have a sum of the Final Cost data. As this is NOT a field I cannot use =Sum(Fields!FinalCost.Value, "group_1") but rather I need to use =Sum(ReportItems!FinalCost.Value, "group_1"). I know that SSRS does not allow this, but after trying to find an answer going extensively through google and many forums, I am not able to find a solution on how to sum up the Final Cost column.
If anyone has any ideas on how to resolve this issue I will be greatly thankful,
We have a "main" SQL 2014 server who imports XML files using SSIS in a datacenter. In remote sites (which are warehouses), there is an instance of SQL 2014 Express. A merge replication is setup, as every operations done on each site must be "forwared" to the main database, as some XML files are generated as output for an ERP system.
Now, the merge replication replicate all the data to the server on each sites. But a specific site don't need the data of every other sites, only the data relevant to itself (which is the warehouse code). Is there a way to replicate only the data relevant to each individual sites to the subscribers? Or is there a better way than replication to accomplish this?
I want to ship 500,000 aged transactions each night to an archive table and delete them from their source table in one or more logical units of work (LUW). Each row is approx 60 bytes and there is only one non clustered index on the source table presently.
I'm trying to weigh the pros and cons of 3 alternatives. One of them would basically insert the non-aged rows into tempdb, ship the aged records, truncate the table and then insert the tempdb records back into their source all in the same LUW.
For this alternative, I'd at least like to turn off logging when the records get inserted into tempdb as I dont see any value in logging that part of the activity. Is this possible?
Could you guys please help me with printing reports invoked thru command line/ URL access to print automatically to specific printers and specific trays and also is it possible to set the specific printer and tray as parameters.
I am very early on in developing a website to track issues with projects which is tied to a SQL database. I have my Projects Table, my Users Table, and am creating a third table to track issues. I'm wondering what is the best way to assign specific users to specific data/projects. The user should only be able to view & update the projects assigned to him. He should not be able to see other projects. What is the best way to assign projects/data to the users to make sure they are only viewing their data?
I have a field that divides one field by the sum of two others. However, when both of the two latter fields are 0's, I get a divide by zero error and the output halts. How do I get this so that for these records I put a NULL or UNDEFINED or something in there at least so I can see the rest of the output. Thanks.
I have this sql posted below which sometimes gets a divide by zero error. How can you get around this error please

--- Note: How can I avoid the the error message if the dividend and the divisor are both 0?
When I specify a formula between Computed Column Specification, I have twozero values, getting Divide by Zero error, any idea how can I avoid this? Istill want SQL Server to display Zero if it is 0/0, is this possible in SQLServer database?ThanksJ.
In the BI developement, in a matrix i'm trying to avoid division by zero, but even if i test the field before the division, i've got the error everytime.
I put the folowing test condition in the field, but i've got an error.
Ex : iif(Turnover <> 0, Cost/Turnover,0)
But i've got error message when the turnover is 0.
