report is required to show the salary levels of employees within the company sorted by department.
first page shows overall company details
rest of report is to show a chart and a matrix for each department -
initally did this as a top level report and a subreport - the sub-report was put inside a table - the table grouped on department - so each time the department changed, a different sub-report was generated
this worked fine - chart and matrix generated ok - but it was slow as the sub-report was calling the stored proc each time to get the same data
decided to re-do by putting the chart and the matrix into the top-level report table (instead of the sub-report)
this is alot faster (takes < 10% of time)
but
the matrix is causing the pagination to go wrong
the table has three equal size columns in it and is the width of the report (apart from margins)
if i make the matrix the width of one column (same width as it was in the subreport), it overflows when the matrix has > 5 columns
this was not happening in the sub-report
think the problem is that the matrix is expanding, it only expands the width of the column it is in - and so the table still has to draw the other two columns - which it does overflowing onto a new page
I am trying to come up with a Matrix report using RS 2005 that looks like this one below. I have row data: question, columns data: Ethnicity and Gender, detail data: Gender average response and Ethnicity average reponse. I utlilized Report Wizard to create a report in a Matrix format , however I wasn't able to have Gender and Ethnicity column on the same line. The report wizard groups columns so Gender is a subset of Ethnicity or Ethnicity is a subset of Gender. How can is solve this issuee so that Gender and Ethnicity data is presented in a Matrix format and Gender and Ethnicity are not part of each other.
Thank you!

Hello Friends, I have created a SSRS report in which I am using matrix. In this matrix we have one column group and three row groups.So based on column group I am hinding the data which belong to some column group field value "X". So the data is getting hidded for the column group value "X". Its coming fine in the BIDS but the problem here is its just hiding the values but the layout is still there, its not getting shrinked. Its just showing the white spaces.
When I preview my Reporting Services Report in VS2005 the report uses 2 separate pages. Even when there is very little data on Page 1 it will display something on Page 2.
I have had a lood through the forum but although folks seem to be having a lot of issues with layout I can't see a problem quite like this one.
We have a number of customer reports which need to be exported to PDF and to look quite smart. They are single page reports with things like address and customer info at the top, followed by the main report, all of which can have a variable number of rows. Then at the bottom is some supplementary information which can also vary quite substantially in size. All I want is for the main report to hug the top of the page and the supplementary one to hug the bottom of the page - and I only really care what it looks like in PDF format. The problem is that I can't seem to achieve this. As the area at the top expands the bottom section moves up and down the page. I'd be quite happy to set aside a fixed area at the bottom of the page for the supplementary report, but I can't even work out how to acheive that! You would think that the obvious answer would be to put it in to a footer, but for some reason you can't put data elements in to headers or footers (why?). Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm trying to create a report like following format. Any idea how can I design it? 'ID', 'Title', 'Answer' and 'Comment' have to span multiple rows which will list 'Response'.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ID Title Answer Response Comment ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1 | Q1 | B | A | aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa | | | B | aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa | | | C | aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa | | | D | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 | Q2 | C | A | bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb | | | B | bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb | | | C | bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb | | | D | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The user would enter the start date, in this case the 1st Jan 07 and then this would populate a table. This seems like it should be so simple but I can't work it out, can anyone help please?
I am trying to change the Page size of the layout dynamically. Does anyone know if this is possible? If so can you point me in the right direction to find resources for this.
I'm working on an invoice report, that requires borders around the whole report. I've got header, footer and body in the report. In the body section, i've got a table which shows line items for an invoice. So the table grows as per the no. of lines in the invoice. As said before I've got to have border around the report. I tried put info in ractangles with borders for header/footer and table with borders in body section. The borders appears fine for headers and footer ractangles but as the table grows/shrinks, border from body section is not continuous to the footer section. i.e. For an invoice with 2 line items the borders for table will appear for two lines only but i want it to be scratched up to the footer area regardless of no. of line items in the invoice.
I've also tried to use borders for header, footer and body sections itself rather than using ractangles. But then when i export the report to pdf and print from pdf, it looks fine but when i tried to print from report manger its missing right hand side border for page header, footer and body. I've made sure there is enough margin around report. Report body/header/footer are 19 cm wide that's mean the report still have 2 cm of space for margins. The left/right margin are 0.5 cm.
I've been trying to do various things for last 2 weeks but not getting anywhere. Can i anyone please help into this?
I'm trying to deal with a way to change the report parameter's default layout.
currently it seems to default to two columns, that's fine until you have a large screen and the "View Report" button is all the way to the right and you have a big chunk of whitespace.
For Example: Parameter 1 Parameter 2 <View Report> Parameter 3
I'd like it to show up instead as: Parameter 1 Parameter 2 Parameter 3 <View Report>
I have been trying to adjust the report regions fit into the whole report page. I could see the width and height property of the whole report page from the report property dialogue, but where can I find the width and height for the particular report region like the table? Then I could accordingly adjust the layout of both the report page and report region like table?
I am using SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services and Reporting Services with Visual studio 2005 Professional Edition. I have developed couple of reports in visual studio 2005 environment using report server project of business intelligence projects. In one of my report I am using MDX query which is created using Query Builder of Report wizard. Once I finished with report wizard a report created and shown with data, layout and preview tabs. I can preview the report. But, when I click on data tab there is no MDX query exists. After that I can't even preview the report.
I have a report that looks and works fine in the native 'screen layout' but when I select the Print Layout option, a blank page is inserted after each page. These blank pages contain the header and footer, but not the body section of the report. Has anyone else seen this sort of thing? Is there something in my report layout causing this, or is it a bug in the Print Layout rendering?
Since SP2 was installed on our SSRS server a couple of days ago, reports viewed in the client Report Viewer control (with or without VS SP1) show a black background when in Print Layout Mode. All other rendering options work fine. Anyone else seen this? Any clues how to fix?
Adding more columns in a matrix report that don€™t belong to the columns drilldown dimensions€¦
That is, for example, having the following report:
Product Family
Product
Country City Number of units sold
Then I would add some ratios, that is, Units Sold/Months (sold per month) and other that is the average for Product Family (Units Sold/Number of Product Family), for putting an example€¦ some columns should be precalculated prior to the report so do not get into it, the real problem I don€™t see how to solve is adding one or two columns for showing these calculated column that doesn€™t depend on the column groups but they do for the rows groups€¦
Any guidance on that?
The only way I am seeing by now is to set it as two different reports, and that is not what my client wants€¦
I designed a report in reporting services 2005. When i look at the view layout for the report everything is aligned correctly but if i go to print preview one matrix is shifted up or down. I have tried to put the matrix inside a rectangle but the issue is still present. Does anyone know why this is happening or any suggestions on what to do to fix it.
I developed a matrix SSRS report for a specific scenario, and the results look something like the example below. The result set is grouped by the date value, so for all records on that date in the first column I have just one value - 2/5/2007. The client would like to see a value for each cell in every row in the date column, so they can sort the results and do other manipulation in Excel. I tried to make it happen but I doesnt seem to work using the matrix. I would really appreciate if anyone has any suggestions on how to make it work. btw, it really has to be a matrix report :)
Now I want to add Approved into one row and decisioned into the next row like that. I can easily do row grouping in the matrix. but then I wont be able to add new rows inbetween those groups. I want to add some rows inbetween those groups to include calculated fields.
Is there a tutorial on how to do a matrix report with row & column tables? This is easy on by default in Crystal, but I can't figure out how to do it in RS.
I have created a Matrix report with 5 row groups (Company and ProductName, ProductEndDate), one column group (Status) and two data columns(Amount & Count).
The report works fine except that it does not sort properly. I want to sort the data by Company, ProductEndDate, ProductName.
I took the following steps -- I highlighted the matrix and in the properties dialog box, selected the groups tab. In groups I selected each row group, hit the edit button, clicked the sorting tab and Company, ProductEndDate, ProductName.
I have matrix report to display gender statistics based on hierachical geographic data e.g. Country 1 | region 1 | subregion 1 | No-of-males | no-of-females with drill through enabled
I want to have persentage near the number-of-gender as well as total population for a row, like this Country 1 | region 1 | subregion 1 | No-of-males (%-males) | no-of-females (%-females) | Total in the row
but I cannot find the way to do it.
Expression for data cell is =sum(Fields!no_of_person.Value)
I've got this data source that returns member information.. great.
I've got a function that when passed the member number and a month/ year returns days participating in the club.
I need to build a report that will output some of the columns for the member, but then report other information for 6 months for each member that all calulated based on days particpating for that month. Which 6 months will be dertimed by a single parameter passed to the report for starting month/year... basically the next 6 months.
Is a matrix report a good option for this? Or should I just have the function called 6 times in my data source? Ideally I layout the report for one month and then *somehow* join in my data source for 6 iterations where month is 1 through 6.
Right now I'm having trouble wrapping my mind around how and where to join the data? Especially if matrix and I have two data sources. I'm also not sure I can call my function from cells in the matrix or if I can even have mulitple data buckets in the matrix. I'm tempted to do this the only way I know how, but I suspect there is a better way.
I've never built a matrix report in ssrs, any information or help is appreciated.
