Make Subtotal Column Widths Bigger Than Normal Columns?
Feb 12, 2007
The reason I say this is because a subtotal of a dollar amount will take up more space than other values. Right now, I'm forced to make all columns the same larger width because it appears to be all wrapped into 1 column width setting. I can try to change the value of the subtotal column, "matrixcolumn4", but it reverts to the other value after I press enter to apply the changes.
Is it possible to fix the max width of the columns ?? Sometime the report only generates 1 or 2 columns and it looks a bit odd as they're stretched to the width of the page.
Also, when we have a large number of culumns, say 20 odd, the legend text get's real squashed up and un readable, are there any tips/tricks so i can have more flexibility over what's displayed ?
True story. Thanks. Dont think that fixed or ragged is going to work for me though. File does not seem to be structured.
I have what appears to be a fixed length file that I would like to import using SSIS. However it does not look loike the spacing between fields is constant. Is there a way to say from character 1 to 10 is X, and 11 to 15 is Y, etc etc? Below is a couple of rows that all pertain to the same record.

What do you reckon is the best option? SUBSTRING in a Dervied Column? Below is an example of the text.
I am able to get reports going with tables sized properly. They look fine on the ReportServer website and I adjust the column widths so that the headings and data look nice. When I set up a subscription to be delivered by "Report Server E-Mail," though, the table formattings get completely distorted.
In particular, I have two tables, with some column headers being two short words (e.g. Max Height). When rendering on the site, I adjust the columns so the full column header is visible on one line. When I receive the email and read it in Outlook, the header row is now about twice as tall and everything is scrunched together. Both the headings and the data in the fields do not format the same as on the website.
The two tables tend to actually have the exact same width in the email version, although occasionally they are a little different (in the web version one is about half as wide as the other). I have tried just making the columns bigger and that has not worked. I've tried making the font sizes smaller, which didn't work. If I do that, leaving the columns the same width, the email version just gets scrunched into a smaller area with the same text-wrapping problems.
If I open the email in a browser (in a web mail interface) the report renders perfectly as on the site.
I have almost all the default settings, and haven't been messing around with page sizes and things like this (except after, to see if that would fix the problem).
Any ideas, similar experiences, or suggestions? If there is a book I should read or any reference you could point me to in order to figure this out would be helpful. I haven't been able to understand this either using web searches or the two SQL reporting services books I have.

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 ?
Hello Friends, I have created a report using SSRS and in that report I am using group rows in one of the matrix. When I tried to display the subtotal of that group row by using the SSRS in-built feature the subtotal column is coming at the last of the matrix columns but the subtotal its showing is wrong . Its just giving the value of the first columns value.
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?
When I view the report on the web, everything is fine until I exported the report to Excel. Additional column and row without heading appear in the exported Excel report. I have no idea, where do these row and column come from as I don't have these additional row and column in the designer. These additional row and column contain the subtotal.
How do I get rid of these additional row and column?
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 have a matrix report that calculates data and provides a subtotal at the end. The calculated value is displayed to one decimal place.
My problem is that when the subtotal appears, it appears to one decimal place also, and although it is the correct value, it is not actually a sum of the values above it.
Here's what I mean:
Client Formatted Data Unformatted Data
A 1.6 1.578947368
B 0.8 0.789473684
C 0.8 0.789473684
D -0.8 -0.789473684
E 1.6 1.578947368
Total 3.9 3.947368421
The formatted data row is what I have on my matrix report - the Users are looking at this and complaining that the Total row = 3.9, but the sum of the values above it is 4.0. If you look at the raw data I have included (this is not shown on the report), 3.9 is actually the correct value, but you can understand where they are coming from when they can't see this.
It seems that the Subtotal is aggregated before any formatting applies, so its not actually a subtotal of the visible data in the cells in its group, but a subtotal of the raw data in the cells in its group.

I 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?
This works correctly in the Business Intelligence Dev Studio tool and on one of our servers, but fails on the other two servers. The two servers that do not work are current on their patches.
When a matrix has multiple rows and multiple columns, the highest level column subtotal is in the wrong scope. Say we have three row groups (r1, r2, and r3) and two column groups (c1, c2). All five groups have subtotals enabled. We can check the scope of every cell by setting the expression of our Detail/Value textbox like so:
When run, the lowest level "detail" boxes should be in the scope of all groups: "r1, r2, r3, c1, c2,". The subtotal of r3 is in scope for everything except for itself (r1, r2, c1, c2,), and so on (see "Good server" screenshot).
This is how it should work, and it does work this way in the design tool and our one (development) server. The other two servers (which are, unfortunately, the Test and Production servers) have a problem: the subtotal of c1 (the column running furthest along the right) is ONLY r1. Always. Which results in some ridiculously large subtotals for detail rows.
We've tested this with various combinations of 2 - 5 column groups and 2 - 5 row groups and found no difference; the problem still hits the furthest right column in the exact same way. We've changed everything we can think of, and tried multiple reports built from scratch and using different data sources, but the results are still consistent.
Any ideas, explanations, or suggestions would be much appreciated.

Campaign and Area are all selectable by parameters, so the actual number of rows is dynamic. What I would like to do is an additional aggregates other then sum for the total - things like average, percent to goal, etc.
And this is where, either I'm completely missing something, or SSRS and I have a huge communication breakdown . I absolutely cannot seem to do this. I tried adding additional columns, but they are grouped under area, not after it - in the above example, it would result in three new columns, one for each area type, not 1. Confusing to describe, but looks something like:
Area1 Area2 Area3 Total Sum Avg Sum Avg Sum Avg CampaignType1 1 xx CampaignType2 2 yy CampaignType3 3 zz Total
I hope that conveys the idea w/o having to fill it all in.
I'm lost as to how to get this accomplished. All I can think of is adding a union dummy row into the actual stored proc to make a different area type (say, AreaAverage) just to add in an additional column and that make sure it sorts at the end. That screams hack to me. Any help????
My report has two groups, company and error type for each company. Company1
Functional Error Data Error Other Error My goal is to show the subtotals for each error types when I show Company's subtotal/total; in the group 1 footer area. Total for Functional Error: Total for Data Error: Total for Company1:
as per my client requirement we need subtotal of 'Amount' group by 'OrderNo'. column so am writing a select statement with WHERE condition and I would like to have another column called SUBTOTAL in the result set (select statement result) with subtotals for that order Number as below
I have a requirement where i have to display some data in the form of multi column but the main report should be in a standard one.I have tried by using sub report as multi column and used that in my main report but when i preview the report  it is considering it as a normal report.Do we have any feature in SSRS to have both multi & standard report layouts in one report.
I'm trying to export some tables in fixed width format for a client that needs it this way. The first time I did this, using Import/Export in Enterprise Manager, integer fields were 12 chars long. However, when I saved this as a DTS and ran it again later, it made integers 4 chars in the text file (which matches the lengths of the datatypes you see in enterprise manager.)
Why is this difference there? What do I need to do differently? Also, is there a list of how wide each data type is when exported as fixed delimited text?
hi when I try to export data to a fixed width txt file I get the following error:
Error 0xc02020a1: Data Flow Task: Data conversion failed. The data conversion for column "postcode" returned status value 4 and status text "Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page.".
even though my sql for postcode is LEFT(postcode,8) and the field length is 8 ! do you now why ?
Not just like this "SELECT Firstname,Lasename FROM rndnames ORDER BY NewID()"
but more like this but this code dont work becouse i dont know how to put it into the code: "SELECT Firstname FROM rndnames ORDER BY NewID()" "SELECT Lasename FROM rndnames ORDER BY NewID()"
As you see i want both columns to be random placed..

Hi(SQL Server 2000)I have an existing table (t) with a column that is NOT an identity column(t.ID), but it has manually inserted "row numbers". I want to make thiscolumn become an identity column. This column is a key field to othertables, so I want to keep the row numbers that are allready inserted.From the Query Analyzer, how do I do this?Thanks in advance!Regards,Gunnar VøyenliEDB-konsulent asNORWAY
In a SSIS Data flow task, whatever you are doing with the input columns that come from a Data source like a Flat File Source, these columns are always visible and available as input columns for all Transformation and Destination components in the Data flow.
Our Custom Component is a column mapping component that transforms many input columns into many oputput columns and we would like that the used input columns are not available anymore to the downstream components...
Is that possible?
I saw that with the Unpivot component it is possible to make some input columns unavailable to downstream components...So I think there is a way to do the same in a custom component...
I am writing a report in SQL server 2005 Reporting service. The report has two parts: first part shows basic information about the client; the second part lists all the softwares the client has. My question is how to make the softwares listed in two columns as shown below?
SELECT DISTINCT Anvendelseskoder.[Usage Code] AS [Building Code], Anvendelseskoder.[Usage Code Value] AS [Building Description], HeleDanmark_DAWA.KVHx FROM Anvendelseskoder RIGHT JOIN HeleDanmark_DAWA

It gives me the following error: Msg 4104, Level 16, State 1, Line 26 The multi-part identifier "aa.KVHx" could not be bound.
When clicked, it marks the first time i call "aa.KVHx"Â Which I do in: "WHERE S2.Nr=2 AND s2.KVHx=aa.KVHx) AS Kode2,"
I have a simple script where I want to pull GLAcct, GLDesc and Amounts by Period. I want my results to look like attached snip.
I tried playing around with the dates; however, I'm receiving errors. Just to note that when I ran for 07/01/14 - 07/31/14 with the transaction date in where clause I was able to retrieve the correct results. Now I want to expand to get a view set up for the whole year....automation!
select gl_account.id as GLAcct, gl_account.descr as GLDesc, sum(gl_ledger.amount_n) as Net from gl_account
