I am currently trying to figure out how to change the background colour of a cell when that row happens to be a subtotal
I have included a screen shot of my report design below:
(The link to the image is http://diagnostic.iipuk.co.uk/images/RS_Questions.JPG should the image not be displayed)
When the cell that is circled is on a subtotal row (i.e. is the subtotal of either the first subtotal (which I have called RegionTot) or the second subtotal (which I have called QCTotal) I want the background colour to change to black). This is so the user cannot see the subtotal for that column on the screen.
I have tried using the following expression in the background colour property for that cell (without success!):
The error that comes up states that report item expressions can only refer to other report items within the same grouping scope or a containing grouping scope.
I have searched help and haven€™t managed to find anything!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

I have 2 higher level column groupings of month name and year above my actual date groups. It looks a little weird aligning them left but there is no guarantee that centering them will even allow them to show until I've scrolled right to the middle of the cell width that they occupy.
Is there a feature that comes with, or a well known trick for making them center in the area that is being viewed instead of the potentially very wide cell that they occupy?
I have a problem about my subtotal.I cannot change the background color based on my conditions.But what makes me think is that the font of my subtotal changes, the same as when my cell data meets my condition,without changing the subtotal's property.
What could be the reason why my subtotal wont change?I have a condition in my background =iif(Fields!IsHold.Value = True,"Red","White")
Now, it's easy enough to make the values clickable so that somebody can drill down to a report that shows detail about the people. I have also discovered how to turn off clickability on the totals. However, what I really want is for the totals to be clickable so that, for example, if I click on the 63, I see a report that shows all men. Likewise, If I click on the 48, I want to see a report that shows all Full Professors. What currently happens when the totals are clickable is that if I click on the 63, I get all men who are full professors (36 records instead of 63). If I click on the 48, I get all Full Professors who are men. (36 records instead of 48).
Is there any way to send different parameters (or even no parameters) to the secondary report if the subtotals are clicked instead of the regular results?
I have a matrix with both row and column subtotaling. The matrix also has alternating row coloring, which is done using a hidden static row group.
In addition to the alternating row coloing, I'm trying to color the subtotal cells. Using the InScope function I can determine whether the cell is in the Row Group or the Column group or neither.
The problem I'm having is with the coloring of the cells in the Row subtotals. My function correctly determines the appropriate color for each cell in the row total, but the column total cell coloring seems to supercede the color I'm setting on the row total.
Included is the RDL for the AdventureWorks CompanySales report, which I've modified to demonstrate my problem. I've added columns which basically indicate the current scope and the color I'm trying to set for each item in the matrix.
If anyone knows what I'm missing and how to correct this, I'd appreciate the help.

I have this problem that I do not now how to solve it:
I have a report (matrix) where in the lines I have an order status, while in the columns I have the number of orders, the number of lines and the average time of delivery (calculated measure on as 2005 cube).
If put the subtotals the system will add the number of orders, the number of lines but instead of doing the average time of delivery, it will sum all the average of each order status.
Nr. Of Orders Nr. of Lines Average Delivery Time
Open Order 10 20 3.2
Closed Order 15 30 5
Total 25 50 8.2 (it should be, for example, 4.5)
Is there a way in which I can tell the system to not calculate the total for the third column?
If I use excel there is no problem because it will use the server formatting of AS2005 while Reporting Services is not doing it.
I am using the matrix element. in the data part i m using the aggregate function CountDistinct. and when i m taking the subtotal for this value across rows the total is coming wrong. while in the same matrix i have other data values also which uses functions SUM, for these the Subtotal is coming correct.
Can somebody tell me why this is happening with CountDistinct function.
Hi, I have simple report with RS 2005. I use matrix component. I€™ve added €śSubtotal€? element to the row and It works perfect. But I would like to make some modification to it and I€™m looking for expression of it, but I can€™t find it - there's just "TOTAL". Also On layout page I see text box €śTOTAL€? and that€™s all. Where can I find it? Thank you Tomasz
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?
I am having a matrix as follows Survey1 survey2 Survey 3 Company1 2 3 Company2 1 2 Company3 2 4 Company4 6 7 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total 2 3 3

Like that it should display instead of it is showin sum value in the total. Is there any function/customecode to do that
I have data in a matrix that shows a percent, and that is fine, but when it shows the subtotal it just sums all the percents instead of getting an average of all the data in that row. I'm looking for help here for what seems would be easy but it's been hours and I haven't figured out yet how to do this. All the rest of the data is fine because it does what it should (sum) but it's this one row that is giving me a headache.
I had a matrix which retrieves value from a database.When i put "Fields!availability.Value" in the detail cell,it shows warning about aggregate.And i am using 'subtotal'.But my problem is when i use "Sum(Fields!availability.Value)",the value itself that was displayed is different from the actual value in the database.And when i use "First!availability.Value",the subtotal only get the first value from the above rows to which to get the subtotal.Uhm can there be anyway to solve this?? Thanks in advance.
I am trying to get a percent of a group on a row level. I want 62.77% or = sum(totaldeals, "Status") / sum(totaldeals, "Product"). It seems real easy but I have not been able to come up with a solution for it.
Any one have any ideas?
Product is a group, status is a group, total deals is a sum. The reason for a matrix is because I have fiscal year, fiscal quarter, fiscal month, and additional product lines coming on board. Matrix is the way to go for sum but I can't seem to get the % by product.
I was able to get the % on the row level but based on the report total with the following code: =IIF(Sum(Fields!GrossSales.Value,"matrix1_Product")=0,0,Sum(Fields!GrossSales.Value)/IIF(Sum(Fields!GrossSales.Value,"matrix1_FianceStatus")=0,1,Sum(Fields!GrossSales.Value,"matrix1_FinanceStatus")))
This is the concept of what I am trying to do but I want it based on the on the product level sum not the matrix level sum. I tried changing the scopes of the above expression with no luck. I have tried adding inscope("") with no luck.
Product Status Total Deals Total Dollar Amount % of Total Dollars
I'm currently working on a report which contains a number of matrix' with subtotals. Each matrix calculates a STDEVP which works just fine and the total shows the values I want.
However, I would like to change the font color of each cell based on the value compared to the total.
For example:
A 4.5 B 7.8 C 3.9 D 5.2 Total 5.7
With the values of A and C being less than the Total, I want to change their color to "Green" and the others to "Red".
I was hopeing I would be able to do something like this. =Iif(ReportItems!matrix1_std.value < xxxxxxxxx,"Green","Red")
Where ReportItems!matrix1_std.value is the values of A-D and xxxxxxxxx would be the "Total"
Is this in some way possible??
I found many expamples for changing the color etc of the totals cell but nothing which tells me how to change the layout of a cell based on the total value.
I have a matrix which looks as follows: ----- Actuals | Budget ItemA 20 | 50 ItemB 45 | 30 ItemC 20 | 15
I would like to add a column with the difference between actuals and budget. Actuals/budget is 1 group in the matrix being the dimensionname. How can I calculate the difference (subtract actuals and budget), because if I just use the subtotal function it adds both totals together and I need to have the difference between them?
I want detailed subtotals but I don't want the "Amount" and "Amount Class." values in the details of my Matrix.
I've not found other way to show the "amount" and "amount class." in the subtotal without adding those values in the details are of the matrix. But when I select "Hide" in the properties those values are hidden in the subtotal as well. Is there any way to hide a value in the details area but not in the subtotals ?
I have a matrix like this. Here A,B,C are row groups and D,E are the column groups. Subtotals are used both at row level and at column level too. I need to provide drill through capability on the data fields. I am using the INSCOPE function while passing the parameters. INSCOPE function is working fine for the row totals. That is. I m getting the desired result when I click on 80,75,75,35,265(in bold big) but when I click on 50,85 or 75,55(in cyan) I get the result of 265. Means INSCOPE is working correctly for row totals but not for column totals. Can anybody tell me what I m doing wrong here and what is the correct approach.
Hi, It looks like by default the subtotal number inherits the number format from the main column. Is there a way to override it? In my case I am displaying percents with a decimal point in a column and sometimes the total comes out to 99.9% instead of 100%. I just want to round of the total to alway show 100%. Is there a way to do it?
I have a Matrix and in the total on the last row i want use conditions for the color on the background , i'm usign the option Subtotal but i cna't read the value for the subtotal for create my conditions , some body now how i will aprecciate thanks
I have a matrix with the rows consisting of customers and the columns consisting of different revenue streams. The revenue streams are totalled using the matrix subtotal feature. I would like to sort, either interactively or statically (if that is the only option) by the subtotal column. I've read through everything I can find online and even the solutions that appear to be appropriate do not work. Can anyone give me a suggestion?
hi, we need to export a matrix that has subtotals to excel, but to download it without the subtotal groups so we can analyze the data in excel (pivot it, add graphs, etc.). how can we control the way the excel is being created?
What 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.
Just want to gathr some ideas.I have a matrix where i retrieve Fields!Amount.I used the subtotal property to get the total amount per quarter.But how can i get the average of the 3 months.I tried using the Avg(Fields!Amount.Value) but it's results is unexpected or wrong. ________________________ | Avg(Fields!Amount.value) | | Jan | Feb | March | ------------------------------------------- | 0.1 | 0.2 | 0.2 | | 0.3 | 0.1 | 0.5 | SubTotal | 0.4 | 0.3 | 0.7 |
That is the design of my matrix.And other thing,it is dynamic,for example,There is a possibility that Feb could be absent.SO i cannot make Sum(Fields!Amount.Value) / 3. Dont know what to do for that.Why could Avg be wrong, correct me if im wrong,but as for what i know,i think the formula for Avg in my matrix is :
I have a matrix that will pull out the current quarters sales figures. I want to change the color of the subtotal font ONLY when we are in the current period. I have a boolean field in the matrix report that is true when it is the current month.
For example, at the end of last month it displays January, February and March figures. I want the sub total to display the totals for January and February in white, whilst the totals for March are Yellow.
I have a Matrix in my report where on each each cell i have a drill down to another report. The Matrix also has SubTotal Column getting generated.
But the Problem is the drill down report gets carried on the SubTotal column also and the user gets vage results as proper information is not passed to another report.
Is there a way through which if its a subTotal cell then i can hide the drill down. some IIF() condition is there is
I appreciate if somebody can help me address this problem.
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 ...
