Conditional Color In Matrix Subtotal Column
Jun 6, 2006I am using matrix in my report with calculated fields, for example I have 3 columns : Actual amount, Budget and Variance. Variance should be in Red if it is negative. I can set up an expression to change the color on the row level, but not in Subtotal ot Total row. I cannot use sum of Fields! values, because Budget amount is also calculated field based on the "Category" value which is columns group on the matrix.
So anyway, if I am trying to reference ReportItems!Variance.Value in Subtotal Level, it gives me an error about group scope.
How can I access the cells values in subtotal and total group levels? If anybody knows any tricks for this fairly simple task?
Thanks for your help.

Problem W/ Conditional Subtotal Color On Matrix - Bug Or Feature?
Mar 26, 2008I've been having a problem getting the font-color right on a matrix subtotal. I searched around but could not find anything else describing the issue I'm having. Basically, the problem is stated as such:
IF a matrix subtotal row has conditional coloring based on the data, THEN changes to the subtotal format via "the green arrow" like bordercolor, backgroundcolor, fontstyle, etc, override the conditional formatting.
This only happens when the report is deployed and viewed in a browser. In Visual Studio, the formatting appears as one would expect.
It also only happens when the color is determined conditionally. If the color is explicitly stated, the subtotal format behaves.
Heres a better example:
I was making a matrix with a subtotal that has the classic "red color when the revenue amount is negative" situation:
COLOR:
=iif(Sum(Fields!rev.value) < 0, "red", "black")
All data cells, whether in subtotal or datasection, would be red if the revenue amount was less then zero. At this point, the matrix was almost newly created and this was the *only* formatting applied so far.
Next, I changed the subtotal formating with the green arrow, giving the total and subtotal cells a grey background.
At this point, the report looks fine in the Visual Studio Preview. A negative subtotal is still red. But, when deployed and accessed via IE, the subtotals are black (default) no matter what.
Is this a known issue?? It seems like a bug to me, not a feauture, for at least a couple reasons:
It only happens in a deployed browser, not the designer.
It only happens w/ conditional formatingThe version I'm using is 9.00.3215.00. I also checked on another box w/ version 9.00.3054.00 and it looks like the same problem.
For now, I'm working around it by keeping the subtotal formatting absolutely clean. All formating done in the subtotal is done through =IIF( INSCOPE("...") , , ) checks. This is annoying because the matrix I'm working on isn't anywhere near as simple as the example above, it has crazy row and column groupings with numerous subtotals and pre-existing conditional border/background/color formats. Any ideas?
Is There A Way To Identify The Subtotal Field In A Matrix?
Aug 20, 2007What I need to do is to calculate the Average time in the subtotals of a matrix containing max-time values.
Amount
last sold at
Item A
5
18:00
Item B
10
19:00
Total
15
18:30
In my understandig I have to create a function that counts all max-time values and calculates their average.
The return value would depend on the filed-type. If it´s a normal field, the max-time value would be returned,
else the calculated average. My first problem is to figure out, if the actual filed is a normal or a subtotal field.
Does anybody know a way to solve that?

Matrix Report 4th Row Group Subtotal Row Color
Oct 18, 2007I'm dealing w/ SSRS 2005.
I have my main matrix report which has five row groups.
What I'd like to do is have the subtotal at the 4th level have a coloring for the whole row at run-time....so the user can follow from left to right what the 4th level subtotal actually is (the report can get fairly wide).
At design time, you don't even see the rows to the right of the subtotal, you just see the subtotal box.
Thanks!
Background Color For Subtotal In Report Matrix
Jan 31, 2008Hi All,
I have a Matrix report in SSRS and have added the subtotal in the report. Now I would like to change the color of the subtotal to a different color than the matrix report cells. However when I change the color, only the subtotal cell changes color and not the whole row which includes the summarised total. Is it possible to color the entire row in the matrix report?
Thanks & Regards,

Conditional Format Within Matrix, Depending On Subtotal?
Feb 26, 2007Hi there,
I'm having trouble inserting a conditional format to a specific column.
e.g.: Matrix within the rows the "weeks" (1, 2, 3, ... , 52), and in the column a "lastyear revenu", "thisyear revenue" and a difference between them, "delta %", in percent grouped by the stores.
I added a subtotal to it so I get in the latest column the "total lastyear revenue", the "total thisyear revenue" and a difference between them in percent for all stores, "total delta %", for a specific week.
Problem: I want to colour the "delta %" column green when it is greater then the "total delta %" value.
I thougt this would be quite easy, but it really is a pain in the *** because, in the background expression dialog box, I can't refer to the subtotal cells ...

How To Add The Subtotal For Data In A Matrix
Mar 27, 2008Hi,
I'm having a problem to sum up the subtotal for the diff value in a datacell, group in the same rowgroup.
for eg:-
LOCATION (columngroup)
ITEM (rowgroup) AGING (rowgroup) Alaska NewYork Indianapolis -(datacell in qty)
ABC 10 5
8 8
2 10 - subtotal = 23
DEF 5 6 - subtotal = 6
GHI 9 4 4 - subtotal = 8
grand = 37
I need to know how to add in the subtotal and the grandtotal. Im using a matrix and SSRS 2000.
Besides that, is that a way to add in the header name for the ROW group in a matrix? Im currently using a normal table, aligned to the same size as the matrix, above the matrix and display the header. Is there a better way?
Thanks for the help.

Total On A Conditional Field
Mar 7, 2007I have to 2 texboxes in the detail line of a table
TextBoxA = IIF( Fields!Total_Amount.Value >0, Fields!Total_Amount.Value,0)
TextBoxB =IIF( Fields!Total_Amount.Value <0, Fields!Total_Amount.Value,0)
I would like to total thoses textboxes in the group footer (Loan_Group1)
I tried this for
=Sum(IIF( Fields!Total_Amount.Value > 0, Fields!Total_Amount.Value,0))
Or
=RunningValue(
IIF( Fields!Total_Amount.Value >0, Fields!Total_Amount.Value,0) ,sum,"Loan_Group1")
for both I get this error:
The value expression for the textbox €˜textbox190€™ uses an aggregate function on data of varying data types. Aggregate functions other than First, Last, Previous, Count, and CountDistinct can only aggregate data of a single data type.

View 1 Replies View RelatedConditional Split On Field In Csv File
Jun 21, 2007I know this should be simple but I can't figure it out. I am reading in a csv file to a conditional split task, all I want to do is split the file based on a field. Some values in field will have a suffix say ABCD while others wont. So my conditional split says Right(FieldA,4)=="ABCD" which then splits file in two directions or at least it's meant to. Problem is that it does not work. I think it has something to do with the field type in the csv file although I have tried using a Data Conversion task but to no avail all the field values with ABCD suffix are ignored by my conditional split and head off the same way as other values. Funny thing is is that if I manually add a value to the file with a suffix of ABCD and run task again then the conditional split works on the manually added row and all rows with suffix of ABCD. It's like it does not recognise previous values as string until one is added manually.

Conditional Execution With Null Checking For DateTime Field
Mar 11, 2008There was a similar question to mine a few time ago about conditional execution, but I'm having some problems with it to which I couldn't find any answer, could anyone help?
My condition is checking if a DateTime from a DB table is null. I use the Execute SQL Task to retrieve the record (SELECT TOP 1 * FROM myTable WHERE conditions = TRUE), then I map 2 fields to their respective global variables.
Then I created the green arrow connector and used a precedence expression based on sucess. I used the expression IsNull(@variable). For some reason, even if the @variable comes as null - I checked the info in the DB - it still comes out as '1999-11-30'
I've looked around and the IsNull method can be used to also change the value in the event of it being null, could it be changing my variables value to this even if I didn't pass that value as a parameter to the function? If so, how else can I test it for null? I've tried "== null", "= null" and even ".equals(null)" - which I know is absurd, but I'm running out of options here...
Could you enlighten me, please???
Thanks in advance!
