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'm trying to write an expression for the "Hidden" property of a column in a table. The column is only populated with data if the group on my table is open. If the group is collapsed, then the column is empty. I'd like to make the column hidden if the group is collapsed. So I'm thinking it would be something like this:
But I can't find anyone who has written this anywhere.
I'm basically trying to make this report do the same thing a matrix does, but the matrix doesn't let me label the columns. I put textboxes above the matrix in line with the columns, but when I deploy the report to ReportManager, the textboxes get thrown all over the place and don't line up with the columns anymore.
So I guess if you can't answer the first question, an alternate question I have is how are you supposed to label the columns (row groups) in your matrix? They don't have headers, if I try to line textboxes up with them they get all messed up during deployment. They have that textbox up there in the top left corner that runs across the top of all of the row group columns, but if I put labels separated spaces in that textbox, the spaces get removed in rendering so the text is pushed all to the left and doesn't line up anymore.
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 need to toggle visibility of group of columns in reporting services report, just like we can do for rows. I know that individual fields can be hidden, but i need to hide/show complete column.
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.
Hi, Running visual studio 2005 on win XP with 2GB ram.
Reporting server Windows 2003, SQL 2005 Enterprise
I have a SSRS 2005 report that runs just fine when all fields are expanded. All the groups are there, and all is right with the world.
I now right click the detail line, edit group, choose visibility, select "visibility can be toggled by another report item", leaving "initial visibility" as "Visible" and again, the report runs in about 10 seconds and works fine.
I go back into the report and choose visibility and set the initial visibility to "hidden" and the report runs for a little longer (not much) but fails with a "system.outofmemoryexception" error. this happens when the "devenv.exe" process hits about 840MB.
Has anyone found a work around to this issue? The report is returning about 28,000 records of about 23 fields, so it isn't as if it is a massive data set that it is working with.
There are a lot of small groups, but even if I turn off the togge option, with the group having an initial visibility of hidden, the memory usage goes through the roof until the PC runs out of memory.
Curiously, when I publish the report to the same PC and run it in IE, it runs with no problems (albeit take a long time to retunr rows - even though the query runs in under a second).
It appears to be the rendering that is causing the memory balloon. Is there any way to reduce the memory usage of the rendering engine?
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.
I'm trying to show a column only if a certain parameter contains a certain string of characters. So far I've got it working if the parameter is equal to the string of characters by doing =IIF (Parameters!Param1.Value = "String1", False, True) but I would like it to work if the Param1.Value contains "String1" ... I tried =IIF (Parameters!Param1.Value like "%String1%", False, True) but it doesn't work. Any suggestions?
I have one column group and three static columns. I'd like to control static column visibility property depending on a field value. I.e. Hidden: =Fields!GroupId<>5.
But I'm not able to find visibility property in column object. Neither in properties explorer nor RDL documentation. I'm only able to set hidden property in textbox objects.
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 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.
Hi, currently I am using a matrix of the below format:
Column Grouping a) Months (From dataset) b) Amt | Cnt | Ave (Static)
Desired Collapsed View Jan Feb Mar Ave Ave Ave Figures 10 20 30
Current Collapsed View Jan Feb Mar Ave Ave Ave Figures 10 20 30
Expanded View Jan Feb Mar Amt Cnt Ave Amt Cnt Ave Amt Cnt Ave Figures 100 10 10 200 10 20 300 10 30
Issue Faced When viewing the RS report online, the months cell do not "shrink" even though Amt & Cnt columns were hidden in the Collapsed View. When the report was exported to excel, the desired collapsed view was showed where the months cell were "resized" when the drilling is collapsed.
Question Is there any setting required to enable the months cell to "auto shrink" when Amt & Cnt columns are hidden?
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 have a stacked column with 2 series("phones", "no phones") on the categories, What I am trying to do is to show only one of the series in each category,I used the visibility option in the series properties, and chose show or hide based on an expression using the expression below if(Fields!PENETRATIONSERIES. Value="no phone",FALSE,TRUE) i get no graph , But when I switch the true and false value, the graph show with the two series there.
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.
