Reporting Services :: Writing SSRS Expression Using Scope Or Variable?
May 21, 2015
I have created a heat map and it is working pretty well. The only issue I am having is that the expression for the fill is using "DataSet1"
=Code.GetHeatmapColor(sum(Fields!AnnualPremium.Value),Min(Fields!AnnualPremium.Value,"DataSet1",Recursive),
Max(Fields!AnnualPremium.Value,"DataSet1",Recursive))
This is making the heatmap look at the whole dataset instead of just what I am grouping by. Within the Dataset there are Regions and Credit Unions. Since the Dataset is looking at an entire region, the heatmap is coloring based on all data for the region. I need to heatmap to color based on the Credit Unions in that region. The Credit Unions are a group. I need the group to be the value it is referencing in the heat map and not "DataSet1". I have been told to use scope or a variable but cannot get it to work correctly.

I'm trying to sum a column in a report. in Most columns I can just wrap the row level expression with "Sum()" and it works. However, I have run into a few that give the following error. The Value expression for the text box ‘Textbox241’ specifies a scope that is not valid for a nested aggregate.  The scope must be the same name of the scope specified by the outer aggregate or the name of a group or data region that is contained in the scope specified by the outer aggregate.Here is my row level expression that works.
=Code.Divide(sum(Fields!WeeklyUnits.Value),sum(Fields!EstUnits.Value))
*
(Code.Divide(sum(Fields!EstHours.Value),sum(Fields!EstHours.Value,"Job")))
Here is my attempt to Sum the row level for the footer area.
=Sum(Code.Divide(sum(Fields!WeeklyUnits.Value),sum(Fields!EstUnits.Value))
*
(Code.Divide(sum(Fields!EstHours.Value),sum(Fields!EstHours.Value,"Job"))))

I am trying to create a column chart that calculates the percentage of computers in our IT environment that are Actively communicating to our SCCM Server.
I have two datasets:
1. Total_Count_Of_AD_PC DataSet.
2. PC_With_Active_SCCM_Clients dataset.
Basically i wan to calculate the percentage for each Region (i.e. AP for Asia Pacific, EMEA, Americas).
Below is the Total_Count_Of_AD_PC  Dataset screenshot.
Below is the PC_With_Active_SCCM_Clients dataset.
Below is the expression that i used that is causing the error.
=CountDistinct(IIf(Fields!Region.Value="AP", "PC_With_Active_SCCM_Clients"),(Fields!Name.Value, "PC_With_Active_SCCM_Clients"),Nothing)/CountDistinct(IIf(Fields!Region.Value="AP", "Total_Count_Of_AD_PC"),(Fields!name.Value,
"Total_Count_Of_AD_PC"),Nothing)
Below is the error message....
The Y expression for the chart ‘Chart2’ has a scope parameter that is not valid for an aggregate function. The scope parameter must be set to a string constant that is equal to either the name of a containing group, the name of a containing data region, or the name of a dataset.

I have created 1 report with 2 datasets. This report is attached to the 1st dataset.For example,1st one is "Smallappliances", 2nd is "Largeappliances".
I created a tablix and, the 1st column extracts Total sales per Sales person between 2 dates from 1st dataset (Small appliances). I used running values expression and it works fine.
Now, I would like to add another column that extracts Total sales per sales person between 2 dates from 2nd dataset (Large appliances). I am aware that I need to use Lookup expression and it is giving me the single sales value rather than the total sales values. So, I wanted to use RunningValue expression within lookup table to get total sales for large appliances.
This is the lookup expression that I added for the 2nd column.
=Lookup(Fields!salesperson.Value,Fields!sales_person.Value,RunningValue(Fields!sales_amount.Value,
sum, " sales_person"),
"Largeappliances").
I get this error when I preview the report.An error occurred during local report processing.The definition of the report is invalid.An unexpected error occurred in report processing.
(processing): (SortExpression ++ m_context.ExpressionType)

When I use an SSAS cube in Excel the command text is just the name of the cube itself and does not require an MDX query. Â Is it possible in SSRS to avoid writing an MDX query?

I would like to suppress the entire row in tablix if no data despite multiple expresions used in a text box.
If data the it will show per the DB data else it should not show anythig or leave it as blank row
The issue is where I have appended ";" and "'" in the expressions but still comes in the report output because it is appended even if no data.

Is there any way to default to the first day of the month in a SSRS expression. I'm looking to do the reverse of the EOMONTH() function.The date value is coming from a parameter @BegDate and formatted YYYY-MM-DD. So if the parameter is set to 2015-08-31 it would show 2015-08-01

I have a data field in a SSRS Report that contains the requestor's User Id. Their ID is prefixed with "PRIV"...And I'm assuming that is the direct result of the network domain. I need to create a SSRS expression to determine if the User ID is prefixed with "PRIV" and then parse that out and use what's behind the "" as their true User Id.
example...."PRIVID123456" should appear as "ID123456" in the report data line.

I am using the following expression to place the month in the heading of a column.
=MonthName(Month(DateAdd("M",-1,Now)))
The expression above gives me the previous month, but I need to have it as "Jan", not "January".
expression that will give me the three character month name instead of the full month. Â I've tried substituting the "M" with "MMM", but get an error. Â I've also tried "Mon", but again, I
get an error.

The TMDTOP column is the decimal data type with date records in yyyyMMdd format.
My return parameter is the following:
=IIf(IsNothing(Parameters!SystemDate.Value),Fields!TMDTSY.Value,CDec(Format(Parameters!SystemDate.Value,"yyyyMMdd")))Â
When I try to run the report I get the following error:

We are using SSRS 2012. We have a report that conditionally formats a background color for some cells. The report renders properly in a browser and in Excel 2003 format. In Excel format all cells after the first one that meets the condition are highlighted, even if only one cell should.
The sample expression that triggers this condition looks like this:
=IIF(Fields!VIOL_NOTE.Value="Internal","Green","No Color")
All cells after the first one that meets the condition Fields!VIOL_NOTE.Value="Internal" have a green background.
Excel 2003 (proper) results:

I'm sure I'm not the only one frustrated trying to figure out which log file SSRS writes to when an error occurs. Does anybody know a sure way to tell? It doesn't change the date/time of the date modified, so you can't sort by date in windows explorer. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to which file it writes to. For example, I had to go through 6 log files to find which one was being written to. I had thought (hoped) that it would always write to the log files with the latest embedded date/time stamp as part of the file name. It does not.
I'm tempted to start using a file system spy, or resort to other tactics. Does anyone have a sure fired way to see which log file is written to when an error occurs? I'm not talking about SQL Dump files - just "normal" errors when processing reports.
Thanks,
WillyDog

I have taken three dtsx files and re written them into one each in its own container. I use the XML Task task alot which the File connection is set by a variable and the variable value is evaluated by expression (the expression makes up the path/filename from other variable values). All the variables that make up the connection are at the container scope. The package will not run now because it is saying that the source (created by variables) for the file connection do not exist.
It seems the answer is that file connections exist at the package level therefore the variable has to be at the package level. This seems to be alot of variables i now have to move to package level to generate the XML source connection. Which in essence makes it confusing as to which variables operate in which container.
My question is can we easily move variable scope (Not ideal as we have alot of variables at package level) Or Can we do the same for connection managers as we do for variables and have them only used in a scope? (this will be ideal as some connections only need to be at a container scope)

I have tried with this thing for hours and I can't get it to parse.
Trying to get last year so the expression should evaluate today as of "12/31/2014"
I looked all over on Google and couldn't find an expression to copy so I've been playing with it.
Here is what it is in SQL Server:
SELECT DATEADD(dd,-1,DATEADD(yy, DATEDIFF(yy,0,GETDATE()),0))
Absolutely could not get it to parse..even with DT tags, etc...

I have a scenario where I would like to use the 'OR' statement in SSRS expression.
I have the following fields:
GLnumber, ProgramControl, GLAmount & EscrowDepositAndWithdrawal.
What I would like to do is as follow:
If GLnumber is 12200.22162 then I would like to take EscrowDepositAndWithdrawal
OR
If ProgramControl is 'escrow' then I would like to take EscrowDepositAndWithdrawal
OTHERWISE I would like my expression to take GLAmount My expression looks something like this:
=IIf(Fields!GLNumber.Value = "12200.221620" OR Fields!ProgramControl.Value = "ESCROW",Fields!EscrowDepositAndWithdrawal.Value,Fields!GLAmount.Value)
It appears only the first IF statement is true. It does not appear that the OR statement never be true.
I am not sure why the OR statement never satisfied. I know I have a record with ProgramControl = "ESCROW".

I have a program where I have to do a weekly data upload of approx 1,500 records. I've written the sql, but need to know how I can add static header text to the SQL statement.the text I need in the header is Reportname(Static string) + #rows (Rowcount of the sql, int) + department (String static) I'm planning on writing it and saving it as a package, then schedule it to run every Friday at 5:00. But I have been reading a little on Reporting Services and wonder if people think it' might be the way to go? Is it a whole new area of security issues? Or is it worth installing and learning? I will have more and more reports I need to write that will increase in complexity, and want to know if I want to keep writing querys by hand, or use reporting services. Thanks in advance! Dan

I have a ssrs report R1 having a button B1 and a another report R2. On the click of B1 i want to download R2 in excel format.I have used action->Go to url property on B1 and have used the below expression to fetch the url for downloading R2 in excel format.
Â
=Globals!ReportServerUrl &"?" & Globals!ReportFolder & "/" & "ReportName" &
"¶m1=" & Parameters!param1.Value &
"¶m2=" & join(Parameters!param2.Value,",") &
"&rs:Format=excel"
The above expression is working.But if the parameter values contain "&" then i need to handle it in the url so i used the below expression.
=Globals!ReportServerUrl &"?" & Globals!ReportFolder & "/" & "ReportName" &
"¶m1=" & Replace(Parameters!param1.Value,"&","' + escape('&') + '") &
"¶m2=" &Replace(join(Parameters!param2.Value,","),"&","' + escape('&') + '") &
"&rs:Format=excel"
but it is not working and giving the below error.The path of the item ' ' is not valid. The full path must be less than 260 characters long; other restrictions apply. If the report server is in native mode, the path must start with slash. (rsInvalidItemPath).
How to handle the "&" in the expression?

I have a report with an expression to give a calculated field value (VoidDays)Â as follows:=DateDiff("d",Fields!Void_Start.Value, IIf(Fields!Void_End.Value is nothing, today, Fields!Void_End.Value))I have a number of different codes in the output such as VLOSS, VMAINT, VHOUS etc.When I run my report my days total for VLOSS is always correct but all other values are one day short. In the example shown in image below VMAINT should be 6 days and VHOUS should be 20 days which would then both add up to the VLOSS of 26 days
Â
I cant currently fix these days at source for a number of reasons hence I need to fix these on the report output.How can I add one day onto each of my Void Days Total for every code except VLOSS which is always correct.
