I wanted to remove duplicate records from SSRS report. I set the "Hide Duplicates" to True. It is now working, But i am getting the space between the two records, which i want to get rid of. How to get rid of extra spaces between two records ( Please find the details below).
View 5 RepliesWe imported approximately 2.9 million records from our mainframe server
into our SQL Server but have run into a problem. The data in a
few of the fields contains both leading and trailing spaces. An
example of the data would be like this, using periods to represent
spaces:
What we have:
..1A02938.....
What we need:
1A02938 (no spaces)
Is there some sort of algorithm I can run on the data to remove
those spaces? The problem is coming up when trying to perform a
SELECT query. We try something like:
SELECT * FROM PCPIPT0 WHERE PANO20 = "1A02938" but we get zero
results because of the spaces in the database. The datatype of
the filed is char(20) because we need some flexibility on the size of
the data stored.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
In Sql server reporting service the blank spaces or white spaces are coming in between the subreports, when we place the subreports in the main reports.
If any one know how to remove the blank spaces between the subreports, please reply me. Its very urgent.
Hi,
Need to remove the duplicated rows from a table which has text/ntext/image type columns. The table does not have any PK/Unique column. (I accept its a bad data model). But currently changing the data model is not possible. Hence doing changes in application.
I couldn't do 'SELECT DISTINCT * from table', since the table has text columns. Though there is no PK constraint, If I know that col1 and col2 are join PKs in the table, Is that possible to select the distinct rows from such a table.
Please advise,
Thanks,

How do i eliminate records which has spaces
i tried with
select * from table
where col1 !='' or
col1 is not null
which doesn't work.. any help.
Is there any way to hide duplicated rows in SSRS except this formula iif(Fields!YourField.Value = Previous(Fields!YourField.Value), True, False) because doesn't work here.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have 5 Parameters created in my report.
1, 2 and 3 parameter are text inputs. 4th is multi-value parameter and 5th is again a text input. I need to Pass a blank parameter to my 5th parameter.
1) I tried the below Expression in the "UploadedEnt" DataSet Properties and not in the "Main" DataSet.
=IIF(Parameters!UploadedEntiParam.Value ="",Nothing,Parameters!UploadedEntParam.Value)
I have taken the actual sql query (file) and I have just placed the select statement.
DataSet Name: UploadedEntselect distinct UploadEnt

SELECT DISTINCT col1, col2...
....) Ent
Order by 1OR logic has been applied in the Tablix Properties Filters as an expression.=Fields!value1.Value like Parameters!value1Param.Value Or Fields!value2.Value like Parameters!value2Param.Value Or Fields!value3.Value like Parameters!value3Param.Value Or Fields!value4.Value = Parameters!value4Param.Value(0) Or Fields!UploadEnt.Value = Parameters!UploadedEntParam.ValueFilter: Expression = TRUE2) I tried applying NULL check box which works perfectly but I do not want to apply that here.How to Pass a Blank Parameter?
Have a report that has this as the query:
SELECT SOURCE, TRANSDATE, LOCATION, DESCRIPTION, MOACTIVETIMESTAMP, MOINACTIVETIMESTAMP
FROM CTS_Missing_Data_Report_VW
WHERE LOCATION = @Location AND SOURCE = @Source AND (TRANSDATE BETWEEN @StartDate AND @EndDate)
ORDER BY Transdate desc, Location
So the user can enter a value for Location and Source and select the date range.BUT I also want the user to be able to put in nothing for the Location and Source so the query would return everything for that date range.
So if they did this the query would be
SELECT SOURCE, TRANSDATE, LOCATION, DESCRIPTION, MOACTIVETIMESTAMP, MOINACTIVETIMESTAMP
FROM CTS_Missing_Data_Report_VW
WHERE (TRANSDATE BETWEEN @StartDate AND @EndDate)
ORDER BY Transdate desc, Location
I have set the parameters @Location and @Source to "Allow blank value" in the datasets for the location and source I have :
SELECT NULL AS Source
UNION
SELECT DISTINCT RTRIM(LTRIM(SOURCE))AS Source
FROM CTS_OPS_SOURCE_LOCATION_TBL_VW
ORDER BY SOURCE
So a blank will show on the drop down and when I run the query for the Query Designer in the Dataset Properties the results does show a blank record for the first record.BUT when I Run the report there are no blanks in the drop downs for the location or source. And there is no '<blank>' selection in the drop down either. And the drop down insist the user selects a value from both of the drop downs.
What am I doing wrong?

I'm getting a blank Report Manager Page or a recurring username popup for users from another domain added to Reporting Services. Adding the users to the Local Administrators group on the Reporting Services server solves the problem but for security reasons this obviously is not ideal.
I've tried adding a Global Group from the other domain to a local group on the RS server and adding the local group to RS as a role.

I have a report which shows up as below,
Product Type - A
Product Name - 1
Product Price - 1
Product Name - 2
Product Price - 2
Product Type - B
Product Name - 1.1
Product Price - 1.1
Product Name - 2.1
Product Price - 2.1
Product Name - 3.1
Product Price - 3.1
Similarly i have different Product types and product names and its prices underneath each product type. As you can see, there might be varied number of products under the product type so i am grouping it on Product type. The issue is when i export the report to pdf or word, when ever we have a big group of Product Type( example: Product Type X and it has 10 different Products under it) along with few other smaller groups, the big group tends to jump on to the next page of word or pdf and leaves a big empty space in the previous page. Any way i can break those big groups and fit as many as we can on the page and the rest should follow onto the next page rather than leaving the previous page with blank space.
Since migrating Reporting Services from SQL 2005 to SQL 2008, the Last Run date, visible on the Details view of reports in a folder under Report Manager, has been blank. I would hope that this is supposed to be populated and equivalent to the "When Run" date visible in the 2005 version of Report Manager. Any setting that needs to be configured in order for this to show, or if this has been reported as a bug?
View 17 Replies View RelatedI have the multiple pages with in the report. For Example,
1. Dashboard Page
2. Risk Summary Page
3. Issues Summary Page
4. Key Summary Page
I am using the rectangle for the physical page break and set the page break option as "Add a page break after" for each rectangle except for the last key summary page in the RDL
Other Report details
Report Paper Size is A4, Landscape, Width = 29.7cm, Height = 21cm
Report Margins - Left=0.2cm, Right=0.2cm, Top=0.25cm, Bottom=0.25cm
Rectangle size in the report body in each page as
Width=28.7cm, Height=17.5cm,
Header Height= 2cm
Footer Height = 1cm
Now, the issue is when I add the Tablix with the rectangle to display the details data, it also adds the blank page after the page and when I remove the Tablix and only keep the graphs within the rectangle then blank page issue get fixed.
I have a Multivalue parameter with 4 available values and have 4 columns in the report that correspond to each of these values.I apply column visibility to each of the 4 columns with the following expression (the number changes for each column
=IIF(InStr("," & Join(Parameters!KPINAME.Value,",")& ",",",1,")>0),False,True)
What I want to do is that if I select a KPI and the Column value is NULL then to hide the row.Obviously if you select multiple KPIs and only 1 of the columns has null value then I wouldn't want the Row hidden.
I wrote a report today containing one grouping. Everything appears all right in the report preview, except that every other page is "blank", i.e., shows only the page header and page footer; all grouping and detail information is missing.
The data on the page following the blank page seems to pick up where the previous non-blank page left off, so all information seems to be present within the report.The report width and height properties are typical portrait-style -- 8.5 x 11 inches. The columns do not "run off the edge" of the report page boundary. I haven't selected any page break for the grouping, as the grouping detail is typically only a few rows long, and would otherwise result in a very large number of pages.
When I hide a table based on an expression it leaves a blank space. How do you get rid of the blank space?

We are using SSRS 2005.We designed one report.This report contains Table and chart controls .When Table is hidden,chart only is visible, this chart is going to show only on last page.There is a white space in top of the chart while hiding the table control.
Consider for an Example Report one tables and one chart . We want to show only chart,So we made Table's visible property is false.Total Number of pages is five and table has only four pages and chart has only one page that is in last page. Now the report showing Four pages are empty with header and footer and last page have a chart with header and footer.
Any suggestions how to avoid the empty pages?
I tried to Filter property to filter the table.Same empty page with header and footer is only visible
Thanks In Advance

I am trying to load a field in my DB and it is defined as varchar(11) but when I populate it, it still adds spaces at the end. When I try to use it in an If statement, it doesn't match and executes the else instead. The wierd part is it seems to make it 10 characters long and not 11 or the the actual length. I think I had originally set it up for char(10) then changed it afterward but I even deleted the field and reentered it as varchar(11).Thanks,Eric

View 5 Replies View RelatedHi. In our database, we have a Social Security Number field. We've made application upgrades and we can no longer have the dashes ( - ) between the numbers. So, I ran this update on our database to remove all the dashes. it did remove all the dashes except it put spaces in its spot:
UPDATE DefendantCase SET SSN = REPLACE(SSN, '-','')
so, i tried this query and it does nothing.
UPDATE DefendantCase SET SSN = REPLACE(SSN, ' ','')
does anybody have any ideas? Thanks!
Hi there,
I have a text box with the following expression:
="OEM Part Code" + " " + "Part Code" +" " + "Part Description"
As you can see, there is a lot of spaces in here. The reportviewer removes these spaces. so that it look like
OEM Part Code Part Code Part Description"
Instead of
OEM Part Code Part Code Part Description
Why is it doing this?
Can I stop it from doing this?

I guess there is no built in functions to do this but I have a function that replaces anything that is not A-Z with a space and returns @data. What I additionally need the function to do is scrunch up @data (remove all blanks betwwen each word so that 'I ran very fast' would be 'Iranveryfast').
What I need help in doing is the "Scrunch" part. Is there a way I could move the @Data to something like @DataHold and inspect each character, if it is not a blank, move that character back to @Data?
This was pretty easy for me to do in C# with a while loop, but I do not know how to get it done in SQL Server 2005.
Thanks for any help!

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a set of SSRS reports published on the server. It can be accessed through a web application or through SharePoint. Most of the reports work fine through both - web app and SharePoint. However, one of the report, which returns large amount of data has some problem:
1. It generates fine from web app
2. It generates fine from SharePoint; only if one or two values selected from Filter dropdown
3. However, if all items (about 20 items) selected from Filter dropdown... and click on View Report, it processes for a while and then shows nothing. The page remains blank.
Did some research and felt the problem is with Distributed Cache Service.
Tried restarting it; tried changing SPDistributedCacheClientSetting settings - requestTimeout, channelOpenTimeout... but didn't work.
I checked Event Viewer logs, SharePoint logs and SSRS logs but couldn't find any relevant error messages.
