Expression To Get CreatedBy, CreationDate, ModifiedBy, And ModifiedDate Properties For Report?

Jun 6, 2007

If you look at the General Properties for a report in Report Manager, there are 4 properties listed at the top:







Modified Date:

2/26/2007 6:37 PM


Modified By:

DOMAINusername1


Creation Date:

2/14/2006 5:19 PM


Created By:

DOMAINusername2



What I'm looking for is if there's a way to retrieve these properties via an expression from a textbox within a report. For instance, there's already an expression that is:



=Globals!ReportName



I know it won't be that easy for the CreatedBy, CreationDate, ModifiedBy, and ModifiedDate properties, but I thought I'd ask if there was a workaround or hack.



We're wanting to put that info into the footer of all our reports. (Actually this is for Report Builder reports, but you can still use expressions in Report Builder reports, so it should apply as it would to normal reports.)

Building Expression Like Properties In Custom SSIS Tasks

Oct 22, 2007



Ive been using SSIS for a month or two and now find I need to create some custom tasks to perform some performance logging. in the the overloaded ProviderComponentProperties section I am trying to create a property which has the same look as the Expressions properties you find elsewhere (Little + on the left and a group of sub properties when expanded).

Ive have played with creating a IDTSCustomPropertyCollection90 collection then adding my sub properties to it but I cant seem to then add my new collection to the ComponentMetaData.CustomPropertiesCollection.

Im assuming the Expressions parameter is a collection added to the properties collection but I cant figure out how. Any help would be much appreciated.

Cannot Access Expression Builder Via Variable Properties Window (no Ellipsis)

Sep 5, 2007

Has anyone encountered this before?

My colleague opens up an SSIS package with variables, many of which use expressions built with the Expression Builder. She cannot bring up the Expression Builder by clicking the ellipsis (...) in the "Expression" Property of the Property Window, regardless of whether "EvaluateAsExpression" is set to True or False.

I can open up this same package and use the Expression Builder just fine. Any ideas?

Apologies if this has been answered already, I did many searches to try to find the solution before posting here.

Thanks much!

Expression Editor On Custom Properties On Custom Data Flow Component

Aug 14, 2007

Hi,

I've created a Custom Data Flow Component and added some Custom Properties.

I want the user to set the contents using an expression. I did some research and come up with the folowing:





Code Snippet
IDTSCustomProperty90 SourceTableProperty = ComponentMetaData.CustomPropertyCollection.New();
SourceTableProperty.ExpressionType = DTSCustomPropertyExpressionType.CPET_NOTIFY;
SourceTableProperty.Name = "SourceTable";






But it doesn't work, if I enter @[System:ackageName] in the field. It comes out "@[System:ackageName]" instead of the actual package name.

I'm also unable to find how I can tell the designer to show the Expression editor. I would like to see the elipses (...) next to my field.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you

Report Textbox Properties / Formats

Feb 28, 2006

Greetings -

Am having problems setting a normal SSN xxx-xx-xxx format for a report textbox using the Textbox Properties / Format tab. The data is stored as text, and am using the "Format Code .... " option. When I choose "Custom" option, and attempt any formatting string containing the "-", the SSN is displayed without the "-". Nothing I have tried works.

What is the correct context string for this format?

Tks.

Setting Up Default Report Startup Properties

Apr 13, 2007

Hello,

Is it possible to establish a set of default report and report body properties, perhaps in an ini file of some sort so that upon creating a new project and adding a new report item the developer does not have to go through the process of setting up all the interactive sizes, margins, paper sizes, etc each and every time? We have an established header that we incorporate on all reports and while in transition to the new Reporting Services it was my hope of finding something will create the first set of default conditions to help us automate the process just a bit.



Thank you.

Can't See Function For Code Added In Report Properties

Sep 12, 2007

I put a function in the code section of Report Properties. I went to add an expression and can't find the function. I type =code. and did not see the function I created in the list.

Here's my code below:




Code Snippet
Public Function ConvertToStartDate(ByVal StartDate As String) As DateTime
Select Case StartDate
Case "Today"
Return DateTime.Today
Case "Yesterday"
Return DateTime.Today.AddDays(-1)
Case "30DaysOut"
Return DateTime.Today.AddDays(+30)
Case "2DaysPrior"
Return DateTime.Today.AddDays(-2)
' Additional cases
Case Else
Throw New ArgumentException("Unknown argument, " & StartDate, "StartDate")
End Select
End Function



I should be able to put in expression =code.ConvertToStartDate.StartDate("Today"), but that does not work. I get a red squiggly line under StartDate.

Thanks for your help,

Question On Particular Report Region Layout Properties

Hi, all experts here,

Thanks a lot for your kind attention.

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?

Hope my question is clear for your help.

With best regards,

Reporting Services :: Referencing SSRS Variables Set In Report Properties

Jun 20, 2013

I am modifying a report that sets this variable at the beginning of every dataset:

declare @current_minute int
set @current_minute = DATEPART(N, GETDATE()) % 3

My idea is to set this variable in the Report Properties instead. When I do set this variable it in a Text Box or a Dataset, I get errors such as:

The expression used for the calculated field '=Variables!report_var.Value' includes a variable reference. Variable values cannot be used in calculated field expressions.

The Variable(report_var) expression for the report ‘body’ contains an error: [BC30451] Name 'N' is not declared.

What other strategies can I use to set a variable globally, instead of at the beginning of each dataset?

SQL 2012 :: Connection Properties Versus SSMS Server Properties

Mar 16, 2015

I have an ODBC connection string that is working fine with the following properties:

Database="XXXXXXX",Network="YYYYYY"; strangely no server is specified in the string, but it is specified in the ODBC Connection file.

I am trying to do a new server registration in SSMS for this database.However, I don't understand where the network spec is placed.

Under Registered server name I've tried:

YYYYYYXXXXX

When I browse the server for the database instance list, I receive "network path was not found".

I even tried:"XXXXXXX",Network="YYYYYY" for the registered server name.Same error message.

What am I doing wrong ?

Bug In Report Builder When Using Expression

Feb 19, 2008

I ran in to a strange problem in Report Builder. I drop a few fields from my Report Model on a simple talbe report. Some of them are straight forwards attributes and some of them are expressions.



Now in the table layout of a report I have say a attribute named as "Account Number". This attribute is actually a field from a table. I change the column header to a two line column header with €œAccount€? on one line and €œNumber€? on second line. No problem, piece of cake.

Now tried the same thing on an expression type attribute, say "Principal Balance". When I split the column header on two line I get this following error.

==============================================================

Semantic query compilation failed: e MeasureNotFound One of the SubtotalMeasures.MeasureName properties of the SemanticQuery refers to the Measure Expression 'Principal
Balance', which does not exist. (SemanticQuery '').
----------------------------
An error has occurred during report processing.

==============================================================

If you read the error you will realize that the query is trying to find an expression named "Principal" (newline char) "Balance" and it fails.


This expression is nothing but a sum aggregation on a field in the underlying table. If I put the "Principal Balance" back on one line report runs like a charm. Also note that exact same report in Designer no issues at all.



FYI: I am in SQL Server 2005 with SP2. (tried it both on Standard and Enterprise versions.)

Indicating The NULL Value In Report Expression Syntax

Sep 12, 2007

Hi,

I would like to know how I can indicate a NULL value in a report expression in SSRS / Report Designer.

I am trying to code :

IIF(Value_A = 0, <NULL>, Value_A)

It may look weird but I am trying to return NULL values when Value_A is 0 (zero), in the sample scenario above.

I have tried using the keyword "NULL", but it is highlighted as a syntax error, and suggested to use System.DBNull. I tried it and then it says that components of the System collection cannot be used in an expression, so I am left drawing blanks.

Thanks.

regards,
Kenny

Multi-value, Non-queried, Report Parameter Expression Problem

Nov 30, 2007

I need to use a non-queried report parameter to filter a dataset for a report.

The dataset column I'm filtering is numeric. The dataset is not a sproc, it's a table in SQL Server that I am querying.

The Non-queried parameter values (Multi-value) are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, >=6.

Selecting the >=6 throws the error: "Error converting data type nvarchar to numeric."

Which sucks.

Because...when I go straight into my dataset I can filter my numeric column with the exact same values (=1 or =3 or >=6) and everything works fine. The error is only raised when I use the @Parameter in the dataset.

I've tried eveything, researched everywhere online and I can't find any guidance anywhere.

Edit Expression Using SQL Server 2005 Report Wizard

May 28, 2007

Hi



Bear with me I am creating my first report using sql server 2005 report wizard.



I have a query that s runs OK and returns name/addresses of companies for me to write a statement report.



My question is , how can only the 'FILLED' address column get displayed onto report and empty address fields are rejected i.e.



Address 1: 12 WoodStock Road

Address 2:

Address 3: Oxford

Address 4:

Address 5: OX10 0AB



therefore the report (page) should only display Address 1, Address 3 and Address 5



I tried to solve by trying to write an expression in 'Edit Experssion' without any joy.

Sub-report Visibility By Expression With Two Conditions Based On Parameters

May 30, 2007



Product version : SQL Reporting Service 2005 with SQL SP2



It's a report with 3 sub-reports in it, i want to display only one of the 3 sub-reports at a time depending on 1 or 2 parameters received by the parent report. These parameters are verified by an expression into the visibility tab of each sub-report. The two parameters are 2 lists with possibles values between 1 and 2 (not query based). I have verified these values and they are correctly received by report depending on the selection of each list.



Ex.: SubReport1.expression = IIf(Parameters!Regroupement.Value = 1, True, False)



SubReport2.expression =IIf(Parameters!Regroupement.Value = 2 AND Parameters!SautPage.Value = 1, True, False)



SubReport3.expression =IIf(Parameters!Regroupement.Value = 2 AND Parameters!SautPage.Value = 2, True, False)



So here are the posibilities :

when Regroupement.Value = 1 --> SubReport1 will be shown



when Regroupement.Value = 2 AND SautPage.Value = 1 --> SubReport2 will be shown



when Regroupement.Value = 2 AND SautPage.Value = 2 --> SubReport3 will be shown



Now why that doesn't work ? I always see the same report and it's not the right one displayed even i change the selection of my 2 lists for the parameters value.

Reporting Services :: Count Of Lookup Expression Column In Report With Multiple Datasets?

Sep 27, 2015

My report has two data sets that hold inventory from two different departments.    

ds_DeptA and ds_DeptB

I have a table, that pulls the DeptB status of DeptA record and displays it. This returns empty when the lookup fails to make a match, which is fine.  Typically means DeptB does not have the record yet.   I need to count these empty (null) feilds and populate it in a Text box outside of the table.
 
I just can't figure out the syntax with multiple datasets. I can't use the lookup expression as part of the count expression since the count expression is not contained in a table that has a dataset. 

table: ds_DeptA
fields:
ID
Name 
date_set_to_DeptB
<<Expr>> =Lookup(Fields!ID.Value,Fields!DeptA_ID.Value,Fields!DeptB_Status.Value, "ds_DeptB")

Reporting Services :: Running Value Expression Within Lookup Expression In SSRS?

Oct 28, 2015

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)
