I want to do is display the sum of textboxes in a group so I can have a subtotal for every group.
I tried these things:
Sum(ReportItems!txtbudget.Value).
I can't use Fields collection because the textbox value is from custom code so there are no Fields.
I searched for options on this and one option was supposed to be adding a field to the dataset. I tried this and I get "An error occured on the report server" when building the report before I even reference the field in the report.
I even wrote code to do the sum and passed in the ReportItem. I then get the error about the grouping scope.
I want the payroll sum to be the subtotal of each column. The budget values along with some other columns are from custom code that makes database calls (which was a workaround for another problem).
Object
Object Title
Budget
Current Spent
YTD Spent
I can add two reportitem controls, ie reportitems!begbal.value + reportitems!deposits.value, without a problem. However, when I add the 3rd reportitem control to the expression, ie + reportitems!withdrawals.value, some really funky arithmetic occurs. All of these controls I am referring to are in the same group footer.
I am having a problem viewing my footer on all pages of my report. I have created a page footer that reads ="The " & ReportItems("textbox213").Value I am getting the value on the first page only and then only getting "The" on the rest. My "PrintOnFirstPage" and "PrintOnLastPage" are both marked True in the Page Footer properties. I am completely confused. This is not the only textbox in my footer I have two others both which print on all pages, but neither of them use the ReportItems.
I've added a hidden field to my report so I can show the value in the page header using ReportItems. However it only works for the first page - the value is blank on subsequent pages. Does the hidden field need to appear on all pages of the report? Would I need to make it a hidden field in a repeated list or table?
I am trying to create a report which uses a table. I have typed manually each cell.
In the subtotal lines, on rows, I have used ReportItems expression. On rows it is working. However, on column, the similar ReportItems expression, instead of adding the values, it is concatenating. Could you please help?
I followed the instructions and the textbox named Color did indeed display alternate colors on the odd rows. However, when I tried to propogate the color to the whole row using the expression =ReportItems!color.Value for the value of the backgroundcolor property, it was ignored.
So I tried some custom code: Public Function GetColor() Dim retValue as String retValue = Me.ReportItems!Color.Value return retValue End Function
The syntax parser didn't like ReportItems either. I first tried it without the Me object and I got a message about requiring an object so I tried Me.
May I know how can I make a simple calculation in reporting services using below formula:-
Column B C D E
Row Group January February
Amt Calc Amt Calc
3 a 100 =B3/B3 50 =D3/D3
4 b 200 =B4/B3 10 =D4/D3
5 c 100 =B5/B3 30 =D5/D3
6 d 150 =B6/B3 80 =D6/D3
I have build above table in reporting services. Row a, b, c, d are all belong to the same reportitems. However, I need to make a division using B3 as a based, where group = a.
I tried to make an expression with logic but it doesn't work:
Calc = reportitems!Amt.value / reportitems!Amt.value where reportitems!Group.Value='a'
I have a sum on a reportitems cell in my header: =Sum(ReportItems!textbox1.Value)
When I run the report, it looks excellent. My issue is when I export it. When I export to Excel, it looks just like it did. When I export to PDF, it gives me a total per page, not for the report.
Does ReportItem behave differently when rendered between excel and PDF? Or is it because I am putting a SUM on a ReportItems cell?
I'm trying to get a data value to appear in the report footer on each page of my report. Using the technique described in various text books etc. I have placed a hidden text box in the report body, and the footer references this text box value.
The report is 4 pages long when I print preview it. The hidden field was initially placed near the top of the report body, so it is there on page 1 in print preview and the footer works on page 1. Pages 2,3,4 (where the hidden field ain't) just gets #Error in the footer.
If I simply move the hidden field further down in the report body so that now its on page 2 in print preview, then guess what - the footer now works on page 2 but errors everywhere else!
Why are ReportItems not known across the whole report? This is maddening. Does anyone know how to make a simple hidden text box value, that is referenced by the page footer, work so that every instance of the page footer shows the correct value?
A report I maintain has an extensive footer that appears on each page, populated with information I've stashed into invisible cells in the table's header. This works great, except in rare circumstances where the report includes a page that doesn't display the table at all--in which case the report errors when it attempts to print ("Object reference not set to an instance of an object").
Due to the requirements of the report, I cannot guarantee that the table will appear on every page, every time. Is there a way I can safely refer to the reportItems collection, in case of Nulls? I'll be okay with blank values in the footer in the cases where the page has no reportItems to work with, but I can't have the report blow up when printing.
I have two RDL files, one is main.rdl, the other one is sub.rdl.
In the body of main.rdl, I threw in a subreport that links to sub.rdl. Follow by the subreport is a table, in which has a textbox called mytitle. In the page footer, I added one text box that references to mytitle by using ReportItems!mytitle.Value.
When this report rendered in HTML or PDF format, it worked fine. However, when exporting to excel format, it failed. I figured it is because there isn't a ReportItem in the subreport called mytitle. I tried adding a dummy textbox into the subreport and called it mytitle, but again, no luck.
Did anyone ever encounter the same problem? Is there a work around way?
Im currently writing a report in SSRS which requires to take data in the fields, manipulate and perform functions on it then display it within its own textbox. For example the field Cost is manipulated so that a column will show the cost depreciated after 5 years.
Cost Final Cost
500 250
1000 634
700 500
Footer: Totals 1384
My problem is that within each group (as the data is grouped by its type) I need to have a sum of the Final Cost data. As this is NOT a field I cannot use =Sum(Fields!FinalCost.Value, "group_1") but rather I need to use =Sum(ReportItems!FinalCost.Value, "group_1"). I know that SSRS does not allow this, but after trying to find an answer going extensively through google and many forums, I am not able to find a solution on how to sum up the Final Cost column.
If anyone has any ideas on how to resolve this issue I will be greatly thankful,
