Parameter Setup: One Label Multiple Values --- Can This Be Done?
Mar 12, 2008
I reviewed many threads and looked through many pages in my book, I cannot find my answer.
I have a report in need of carrying multiple values per parameter label. Here is the report parameter and how it is used;
Our IS system considers A-Active, L-On Leave, P-Paid Leave to be "Active"
Our IS system considers T-Terminated, D-Deceased to be "Termed"
Instead of having to have the user click upon three options (A, L, P), I would like to group these and have the Label appear as "Active", while the two options for "Termed" (D, T), would appear as the second parameter option.
Does anyone know how I would get this correctly setup in the Report Parameters... module?
I have a parameter "country" that currently has something like 50 labels (each with a different value) for different countries. I want to be able to design this so that I can select US, Canada and World. This requires me to put multiple values under the "World" label.
Is it possible to have a parameter with one label but multiple values. For example:
Label Value ---------------------------------------------
Machinist (100,200,300)
Is it possible to set up an expression that when the user selects this label it will look for the job codes 100, 200 and 300 and return all employees in those codes?
If I have a Select statement like this in my C# code: Select * From foods Where foodgroup In (@foodgroup) And I want @foodgroup to have these values ... "meat", "dairy", fruit", what is the correct way to add the parameter? I tried meat, dairy, fruit 'meat', 'dairy', 'fruit' but neither worked. Is this possible?
I have some 5 parameters which I've specified as multi-valued and my report uses a stored procedure. When I select all values in my dropdown (parameters) within my reports nothing shows up. How can I pass multiple values of a parameter into my stored procedure such that it works?
I need to somehow set up a third parameter which allows me to control the tag quantity type either by ALL - % , IS NULL, or IS NOT NULL.
I tried TAG_QUANTITY LIKE :Tags but this would only work if I had the % option select and not the IS NULL or IS NOT NULL
Any thoughts on how to format the select statement?
SELECT ORGANIZATION_ID, TAG_ID, PHYSICAL_INVENTORY_ID, TAG_NUMBER, CREATION_DATE, VOID_FLAG, TAG_QUANTITY, TAG_UOM, SUBINVENTORY, LOCATOR_ID, COUNTED_BY_EMPLOYEE_ID FROM INV.MTL_PHYSICAL_INVENTORY_TAGS WHERE (ORGANIZATION_ID = ite) AND (PHYSICAL_INVENTORY_ID = :InventoryID) AND (VOID_FLAG = 2) AND TAG_QUANTITY IS NULL ORDER BY TAG_NUMBER
I am trying to select some values as default for a parameter, I add my data set,add my parameter then I  select the values in the default pane, when I run the report I get :
'the default value expression for the query parameter contains an error[BC30451] name is not declared.
When I look at the expression of the default parameter (in the report data pane under the specify values) it appears like
=new Object() {[Sty].[ST].&[1], [Sty].[ST]..&[15]} with a red scrible under the ()Â
I am using RS2005. i have a requirement in which i need to pass more than 1 value to a parameter. this parameter is used in a dataset for filtering.
Eg: if i have a parameter as @years, i want to assign values 2005, 2006 to it and use it in the dataset to filter like select.... where year in (@years).
I need to write SP where user select SUN to MON check boxes. If user select Class A with sun,mon and wed check boxes then i need to insert data as below
Attempting to build a report were you can place a specific code in the parameter field and it will return all row values based on that particular code. I have a similar report that works great, but the specific code is just in 1 column, the one I'm trying to create has the potential to have that code in up to 20 different spots. I have the report built, but the issue I'm facing is linking the parameter. Is there a way to link 1 parameter to multiple column options?
Here's an example:
Docflo Distribution Group Queue Status Pend1 Pend 2 Pend 3 Pend 4 Pend 5 ABC ABC1 Catch All NEW 123 126 125 621 129 ABC ABC1 Various PENDED 621 123 872 542 630
Right now if I were to link the parameter to the Pend1 field, I would get every line I wanted that had Pend "123", but it would not include any of the lines where Pend "123" was in Pend 2, Pend 3, Pend 4, so on.
How would I link the parameter to more than 1 column so it would return all rows with a specific code no matter which Pend column it was in?
ALTER PROC [dbo].[sp_GetInvitationStatusTest] ( @invited_by NVARCHAR (50) ) AS BEGIN -- SELECT * FROM dbo.Merck_Acronym_Invitations WHERE invited_by=@invited_by select distinct t1.invited_isid as 'ISID', t1.invited_name as 'NAME',t1.invitation_status as 'STATUS',
[Code] ....
If you look at the where clause i have invited by , i get the desired output if i just provide 1 name in the execution such as exec [dbo].[sp_GetInvitationStatusTest] 'marfilj' But my requirement is to make the procedure work with more than one input variable such as exec [dbo].[sp_GetInvitationStatusTest] 'marfilj','sujith' now i should get the output for 2 people but if i run this i receive the following error Procedure or function sp_GetInvitationStatusTest has too many arguments specified.
how to make my procedure work with more than 1 input variable?
Below is the stored procedure i have it works fine if i have 1 value passed to @invited_by but i want to modify but i want this code to be working for multiple inputs .Lets say if i do
exec [dbo].[sp_GetInvitationStatusTest] 'Test1 . I get the desired output but i want this procedure to work for exec [dbo].[sp_GetInvitationStatusTest] 'Test1,Test2'. USE [merck_acronyms] GO
I have a stored procedure that accepts one parameter called @SemesterParam. I can pass one string value such as €˜Fall2007€™ but what if I have multiple values separated by a comma such as 'Fall2007','Fall2006','Fall2005'. I still would like to include those multiple values in the @SemesterParam parameter. I would be curious to hear from some more experienced developers how to deal with this since I am sure someone had to that before.
I am using SSRS 2008 R2 Report Builder 3.0 (10.50.4276.0) . I have simple set of data which has a persons Title and Name e.g. Mr Smith, Miss Jones, Doctor Foster
The report has a parameter where the user can select which records to show based on the matching titles (Mr, Miss, Doctor)
The Query for the report uses Title in (@Title) where @Title is the only parameter which can take multiple values. The report works correctly for any 1 value selected, but as soon as 2 or more values are ticked in the drop down, it fails.
I believe the parameter value is being passed into the query with a comma separating the values e.g. Mr,Miss which causes the IN statement to give an error, as the statement would be where Title IN ('Mr,Miss') which does not match any of the data values.
The parameter value passed needs to be 'Mr','Miss' for the IN statement to work. What statement do I have to put in the report query to get it to select any of the data rows where the title matches any 1 of the selected values?
I am creating a SSRS report using a SSAS cube as it data source. The user would like to select multiple values from a reporting parameter that is then used as a filter on the MDX statement. I am bale to have the report work successfully when only one value is selected but not when multiple values are selected; the report uses only the first value from the reporting parameter when it contains multiple values. How do I filter an MDX query using a SSRS report parameter with multiple values?
Hello. I have a multi value parameter in my report. I want to know how can I display all of the selected values in this parameter in a text box. Whan I try to use this parameter in a textBox it automaticly take the value: Parameter.param.Value(0) Whice take only the first select value.
We have some reports that allow null values for parameters and I find the "Null" label next the parameters in the report viewer to be completly the wrong thing i want to show to business users.
Has anyone worked out a way to change this label to something more meaningful?
I want it to either display the label (All) or the name of the month. I get an error when All is the parameter selected but not when any month is selected. If I removed the MonthName() function, I don't get an error but I also don't get the month name.
we can  assign one parameter value for each excecution of  [SSISDB].[catalog].[set_object_parameter_value] by calling this catalog procedure..
Example: If I have 5 parameters in SSIS package ,to assign a value to those 5 parameters at run time should I call this [SSISDB].[catalog].[set_object_parameter_value] procedure 5 times ? or is there a way we can pass all the 5 parameters at 1 time .
1. Wondering if there is a way to pass multiple parameters in a single execution (for instance to pass XML string values ??) 2.What are the options to pass multiple parameter values to ssis package through stored procedure.?
I am new to reporting services and I'm really stuck on a design problem. Can someone please help me?
I would like to design my own print function. When a user clicks on the print icon (preferably the one that came with reporting services), the report is automatically printed twice, once with "For Person A" and the second time with "For Person B" on it. It doesn't matter where these two labels are placed on the page. These two reports need to be printed on letter-size paper regardless of user's selection. How do I do this with minimum amount of code?
I have parameters in my report. The user can choose the year, month and date (3 parameters). Now I want to set default vaules for the parameters , so that the user sees the report for example for the current day without selecting the parameters. I tried to set the type of the parameters to DateTime and the default value for example for the year to "=Today().Year" . But when I execute the report an error occures . Something like : no validValue for this parameter.
My Attributes for the year month and date are from an Analyis Services Cube from a Server Time dimension . Does somebody know how to make it possible to set default values for this parameters?
Other question :
Does somebody know how I can reduce the values for a parameter. For Example I have a parameter "year" from a server time dimension from a cube. The values which are available are "Year 2004", "Year 2005", "Year 2006", "Year 2007". But I want that the user only can choose "Year 2006" or "Year 2007" ant not every Year or "All". Or Other Example: The User should only choose a Date that is int the past or Today but not a Date in the future.
Is it possible to fill a parameter list with values based on another parameter value? Here's what I have so far (which hasn't worked)... I'd like to generate a report listing information for a student. The report viewer would first select a school from the first drop-down menu, and then the second drop-down menu would populate with the list of students at that school. I have a dataset that calls a sp which returns a list of schools (SchoolID and SchoolName fields from the database table). I have another dataset that calls a sp (with SchoolID as the parameter) which returns a list of students for that school. Both datasets return the appropriate data when tested individually, but when I set up the Report Parameters and build the report, these errors come up... The value expression for the query parameter '@SchoolID' refers to a non-existing report parameter 'SchoolID'. The report parameter 'Student' has a DefaultValue or a ValidValue that depends on the report parameter "SchoolID". Forward dependencies are not valid. ...Is it possible for the reoprt to generate a list of available parameter values based on the value selected for another parameter? Any help you can give me would be great!! Thank you
I have my stored procedure set to Territory_code IN (@Territory)
, now , how do i enter in more then one value. When i select the multi value check box, it gives me more spaces. But then doesnt recognize the values when i put in more then one. am i doing something wrong?
I have a parameter (hidden) that gets its value using an expression base on another parameter. When in the designer, the first time when the designer loads I can select the Parameter that controls the child parameter (expression lies in the default value section). The value changes.
When I change the parent parameter again, the value of the child parameter does not seem to change.
How can I make this parameter change automatically when the parent is changed ?
I am SSRS user, We have a .net UI from where we want to pass multi select values, but these values are comma separated in the database. how can I write a sql query such that when I select multi values on my UI, the comma separated values are take care of.
I am trying to create a report using Reporting Services.
My problem right now is that the way the table is constructed, I am trying to pull 3 seperate values i.e. One is the number of Hours, One is the type of work, and the 3rd is the Grade, out of one column and place them in 3 seperate columns in the report.
I can currently get one value but how to get the information I need to be able to use in my reports.
So far what I've been working with SQL Reporting Services 2005 I love it and have made several reports, but this one has got me stumped.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
I might not have made my problem quite clear enough. My table has one column labeled value. The value in that table is linked through an ID field to another table where the ID's are broken down to one ID =Number of Hours, One ID = Grade and One ID= type of work.
What I'm trying to do is when using these ID's and seperate the value related to those ID's into 3 seperate columns in a query for using in Reporting Services to create the report
As you can see, I'm attempting to change the name of the same column 3 times to reflect the correct information and then link them all to the person, where one person might have several entries in the other fields.
As you can see I can change the names individually in queries and pull the information seperately, it's when roll them altogether is where I'm running into my problem
Thanks for the suggestions that were made, I apoligize for not making the problem clearer.
Here is a copy of what I'm attempting to accomplish. I didn't have it with me last night when posting.
--Pulls the Service Opportunity
SELECT cs.value AS "Service Opportunity"
FROM Cstudent cs
INNER JOIN cattribute ca ON ca.attributeid = cs.attributeid
WHERE ca.name = 'Service Opportunity'
--Pulls the Number of Hours
SELECT cs.value AS 'Number of Hours'
FROM Cstudent cs
INNER JOIN cattribute ca ON ca.attributeid =cs.attributeid
WHERE ca.name ='Num of Hours'
--Pulls the Person Grade Level
SELECT cs.value AS 'Grade'
FROM Cstudent cs
INNER JOIN cattribute ca ON ca.attributeid =cs.attributeid
WHERE ca.name ='Grade'
--Pulls the Person Number, First and Last Name and Grade Level
SELECT s.personnumber, s.lastname, s.firstname, cs.value as "Grade"
FROM student s
INNER JOIN cperson cs ON cs.personid = s.personid
INNER JOIN cattribute ca ON ca.attributeid = cs.attributeid
WHERE cs.value =(SELECT cs.value AS 'Grade'
WHERE ca.attributeid = cs.attributeid AND ca.name='Grade')
I have created a single FULLTEXT on col2 & col3. suppose i want to search col2='engine' and col3='toyota' i write query as
SELECT
TBL.col2,TBL.col3 FROM
TBL INNER JOIN
CONTAINSTABLE(TBL,col2,'engine') TBL1 ON
TBL.col1=TBL1.[key] INNER JOIN
CONTAINSTABLE(TBL,col3,'toyota') TBL2 ON
TBL.col1=TBL2.[key]
Every thing works well if database is small. But now i have 20 million records in my database. Taking an exmaple there are 5million record with col2='engine' and only 1 record with col3='toyota', it take substantial time to find 1 record.
I was thinking this i can address this issue if i merge both columns in a Single column, but i cannot figure out what format i save it in single column that i can use query to extract correct information. for e.g.; i was thinking to concatinate both fields like col4= ABengineBA + ABBToyotaBBA and in search i use SELECT
TBL.col4 FROM
TBL INNER JOIN
CONTAINSTABLE(TBL,col4,' "ABengineBA" AND "ABBToyotaBBA"') TBL1 ON
TBL.col1=TBL1.[key] Result = 1 row
But it don't work in following scenario col4= ABengineBA + ABBCorola ToyotaBBA
SELECT
TBL.col4 FROM
TBL INNER JOIN
CONTAINSTABLE(TBL,col4,' "ABengineBA" AND "ABB*ToyotaBBA"') TBL1 ON
TBL.col1=TBL1.[key]
Result=0 Row Any idea how i can write second query to get result?
Please be easy on me...I haven't touched SQL for a year. Why given;
