Hi All,
I'm having trouoble with changing my report name when I swtich to different parameter values.
I use the following expression.
IIf(Parameters!GroupVar1.Label = "CBank", "CBank", IIf(Parameters!GroupVar1.Value ="DTC","DTC","Total"))
This works fine when I clear Mutli-Value box in paramter properties. but when I use multi-value, this does not work.
Is there any solution for this?
Thanks
Hi All,
I'm unable to run the report the report with multi-valued parameter using the below StoredProcedure as dataset:
CREATE PROCEDURE spprodsales
@productid int
AS
select SalesOrderID,OrderQty,UnitPrice,ProductID
FROM Sales.SalesOrderDetail
Where ProductID IN (@productid)
RETURN
And when I'm replacing this dataset to a query as below I'm able to run the report with multiple values selected for productid parameter :
select SalesOrderID,OrderQty,UnitPrice,ProductID
FROM Sales.SalesOrderDetail
Where ProductID IN (@productid)
So, can anyone please help me out possibly using the same stored procedure as above.
Thanks,
Kripa
I am currently working with 3 multi-valued parameters whose data sources are queries. The first 2 are required to have entries, 100% of the time, but the third one may or may not require selecting a value. Parm3's data source is filtered by the selections of Parm1 & Parm2. The data source for my report references Parm3 in a derived table that is then LEFT OUTER JOINed.
In the cases where the report does not require any selection from Parm3 I am still required to pick at least 1 entry. Can anyone shed some light on this, or provide a solution so I am not forced to pick any if I don't want?
Thanks in advance,
Michael
Hello,
I am forced to use a Sp in teh first place as my query is too long for the text dataset. I have a parameter Time_Period which ia a multivalued one but it is not allowing me to use this in the SP. using RS 2005.
Any help appereciated.
Thanks
I have a report parameter named "Schools" which display a list of schools. For example, Alo elementary school, Balo middle school and Calo high school.
When "Alo elementary" is selected the report only display students from that school along with other assessments data fields. same goes for other schools too. But I want to display different data fields for "Calo high school" when it is selected. It is not currently possilbe becasue I am using the same template for all types of schools. There some fields only should be displayed for "Calo high school" but not for any other type of schools.
I can accomplish this by creating two separate report, one for "Calo high school" and the other for other schools. But I want to accomplish this just by creating one report. So when "Alo elementary school" is selected it displays report with certain fields and when "Calo high school" is selected then it displays same fields as "Alo elementary school" but as well as some other fields too in the report. Is this possible? Need help.
Hello,
I am attempting to create a cascading parameter.
Parameter's 1 & 2 are multi-valued.
Datasets 1 & 2 supply Parameter's 1 & 2.
The values for Parameter 1 as derived from Dataset 1 are 'A', 'B', 'C', 'D' and 'E'.
The potential values for Parameter 2 will only be created if value 'C' is amongst the multiple values selected for Parameter 1.
Thus I need to write my query for Dataset 2 so that it can check the values of Parameter 1 for the existence of 'C' otherwise it returns nothing.
What is the best practice for a dataset referencing the values of a multi-valued parameter in order to generate it's resultset?
Any help is appreciated.
I want to set defaults for my multi-valued report parameter MONTH so that when the report starts, it automatically selects all the months prior to the current month (effectively creates a YTD report). However, using RS2005, I can't seem to figure out how to do this. I can create an IIF expression in 12 different value entries in the report parameters that returns the month based on the system date, but the first time I pass blanks, null or anything except a valid parameter, it clears the entire parameter list when the report displays.
Does anyone have any suggestions for auto-populating multiple values in a parameter at runtime where one or more of the parameter values may be empty? Checking "Allow Null" or "Allow Blank" doesn't fix this problem.
I tried to pass all the values in a single value entry on the report parameters page, but can't find the syntax that will allow this. I'm not sure if it will let you do that anyway...

Hi,
I am creating a data set for a ROLAP report which executes a dynamic SQL using EXEC. I am finding problems parameterizing multi-valued report parameters in the SQL being executed through EXEC.
To consider a sample code:
EXEC('select * from country where country_key in ('+@country+')')
where @country is a multi-valued report parameter.

I have a multi-valued parameter that I want to pass to a subreport. The values are 11, 12, 13, and 14.
So here's what I've done:
1. For the properties of the clickable field of the first report, I have gone to the Navigation tab and chosen the subreport in the "jump to report" pulldown.
2. Then I clicked on the Parameters button and added a parameter name for the multi-valued parameter I am trying to send. For the Parameter value, I have tried 11,12,13,14. I have also tried =Split(11,12,13,14)
3. On the subreport, I create a report parameter with the same name, data type is string, multi-value is checked, and the available values pulldown is populated by a query.
So I run the first report and click on the link that brings me to the subreport, but all the subreport shows is the results for 11, not 12, 13, and 14.
How can I get the second report to understand that I want it to show all the records related to 11, 12, 13, and 14? If I bypass the first report and simply use the drop-down to choose 11, 12, 13, and 14 in the subreport, it works fine. I just can't seem to figure out how to correctly have the first report tell the subreport that it wants 11, 12, 13, and 14.
Thanks in advance for any advice!

Hello everybody,
I need to create a function which takes a multi-value parameter. When I select more than one item, I get the error that I have too many arguments. Does anybody have a solution?
Or can I create a view and then do a "SELECT * FROM viewName WHERE columnName IN (@param)"?
Thanks in advance for your answers.
Hello Everyone,
I am trying to expand the multi-valued parameter menu object so I can display the selection list in a more user-friendly format since the text is fairly long. If left at the default setting then I have to scroll to the right to see the complete string(s). For a single-select parameter I can just CAST the string to CHAR(100) and the menu object will expand. However, it seems that this approach is not working for multi-valued parameter menu objects.
Is this a bug in SSRS, and is there another way to accomplish this. Please let me know.
Thank You!!!
How does one return all selected values in a multi-valued parameter? Right now i have a filter on the dataset where
(Expression)
=Fields!LOCATION_ID.Value
(Operator)
=
(Value)
=Parameters!Loc.Value(0)
This is just giving me data from the first value that is selected in the multi-valued dropdown. I need all returned from the parameter. Any ideas.
Hi There.
I have a Multi-valued parameter that is a string type and it freaks out when a do a select all from my drop down list. I suspect it has something to do with size as it works great if a pick a reasonable amount of items. My parameter list is populated by 1463 items of 12 characters each. Is there a threshold I should have to worry about?
Thanks, Mike
I have a sp where query is as below.
DECLARE @ServerCIName varchar(5000)
SELECT * FROM dbo.INC
WHERE Status in ('Assigned','In Progress','Pending')
and Description like '%' + (Select * from SplitDelimiterString(@ServerName,',')) + '%'
and (select DATEADD(dd, DATEDIFF(dd, 0, (Submit_Date)), 0)) = (select DATEADD(dd, DATEDIFF(dd, 0, getdate()), 0))
In place of "and Description like '%' + (Select * from SplitDelimiterString(@ServerName,',')) + '%' ", if I use "and Description like '%' + @ServerName + '%' " and pass a single value, it works.
But @ServerName contains multiple values and it is dynamic (not constant).
How do I query the data?
I have report where i should create a report which is multivalued parametr report,but here my condition is i want to see only one county name in my output that is Ex: Asia Specific (CountryName),I dnt want to see the other Country names,So how should we create for this condition .
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a report that includes two multi-valued parameters.
In the Default Values section, I choose 'from query' and select dataset and value field.
In the Available Values section, I choose 'from query' select the same dataset and value field, and in the label field I select the relevant label field.
When I run the report my multi-valued parameters look like I selected the option 'select all' (all options are selected).
How can I keep the multi-valued parameters cleared from selections until the user select his choice? Thanks in advance.
Can someone please explain how i would define a multi-valued default parameter within the report Properties -> Parameters. I have an OLAP based report with multi-value parameters. I do not want to set the default values from within BIDS. Instead, I'd like to do this from the ReportServer (after report deployment). I have no problem when i enter a single value as a 'default value', for example:
ReportParm1 String [Deal Dim].[Shelf].&[AAM]
But, how would i define it with multiple values as a 'default value' ?, for example:
ReportParm1 String [Deal Dim].[Shelf].&[ABC] , [Deal Dim].[Shelf].&[DEF]
NOTE: It appears that you cannot use expressions, such as the 'split' function in the 'default value' space.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thank you.
I downloaded the sample reports for report execution from http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms161561.aspx
to display reporting services report execution data which worked fine until I'd written a report with multi-valued parameters. As soon as this was designed and more importantly run by an user the package used to create the reports crashed.
I've found out why it's breaking mainly through digging around in the script task where the package crashes and also through surfing the net and finding this
https://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=967081&SiteID=1
thread. I've tried their fix but it still crashes unfortunately.
It seems like the issue is populating an array indexes in the script component in the update parameters data flow task. I think this was written to deal with minimal parameter requests, however I've recently written a multi-valued parameter report and it's made the string containing the parameter details has now hit the maximum length for the string. Changing the WSTR 4000 to a different size doesn't seem to have an effect, and the forum entry above doesn't hint at what the problem is apart from the script not being able to deal with the length.
The error I now get is as follows:
at MyComponent1.ScriptMain.Input0_ProcessInputRow(Input0Buffer Row) in dts://Scripts/MyComponent1/ScriptMain:line 35
at MyComponent1.UserComponent.Input0_ProcessInput(Input0Buffer Buffer) in dts://Scripts/MyComponent1/ComponentWrapper:line 68

at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.ScriptComponentHost.ProcessInput(Int32 inputID, PipelineBuffer buffer)
Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
I would like to be able to adjust the multi-value property of a parameter based on the value of another parameter in my report. The controlling paramter would be binary with two options for Single or Multiple selection. I would like my parameter to default to multi-value, which I can do on the screen selection. I have tried to add an IIF statement to the XML code, with no success. Any ideas would be helpful.
Thanks
Hi all,
I have a report running with both a db and Analysis services data source..When I change any of the multi-valued parameters a post-back is done and then the page is re-loaded all good. However. When I change one of the single value parameters a post-back occurs however the page said "Report parameter values must be specified before the report can be displayed. Choose parameter values in the parameters area and click the Apply button." If I THEN press APPLY the report loads perfectly with the selected option.
I have un-hidden ALL my parameters and they all seem to get values.. Does anyone have any clue what could be going wrong ?
Thanks.
Here's tricky one.
I have a fairly complex report that was given to me that was hard coded for single parameters. There is a dropdown for each market (created from a query in SSRS). The users have to run for each market each week.
Is there a way to use this report as a Sub-report inside a list of a master report and then use a mult-value parameter?
I want this multi-value parameter to build the values for the list and then run the "sub-report" for each value.
Essentially, I want to create a for each loop.
Any ideas?
Hi All,
I have a question, How to user the Multi value in Visual Studio Report Designer.
My dataset contains the following
Select empno,empname,basicpay,deptcd from employee where deptcd in (substring(@gdept,1,4))
Here variable gdept is the report parameter. I am passing the value.
it works fine with single value.
( the source of gdept is a another dataset to list the deparment code+name,
Example
DEP1 - COMPUTER
DEP2 - ADMIN
DEP3 - FINANCE
)
when I preview, i have a combo box to select the department.
If I choose one deparment, it works fine.
If I choose more than one department or select all I have error message
"substring function requires 3 aruguments."
what is wrong is the query
Please advise.
Cheers,
Saleem
I am using report builder 3.0.
I have a report parameter called para1 which is a drop-down list and what I want to do is display another report parameter based on the para1 selection.
So for example, para1 contains a, b, c choices. if a user selects b, I would like para2 to display but if the user selects a or c, I don't want the para2 to display.
HI there.
I have been working on this for quite some time and I can not figure out what I am doing wrong.
I have a report filter called ItemFilter and I have declared as a report parameter where the multi value checkbox is checked. The values from this filter are coming from the item table.
SO the users drilldown on the filter when they run the report an select the Items that they would like to display info for. I had the following code before in the where
where
([CRONUS International Ltd_$Item].No_ = @itemfilter). This only worked if they selected on item from the list.
I want them to be able to select multiple Items or all. The code above did not work because there were commas separating one item from the other and I was getting an error.
I changed to
whrere
([CRONUS International Ltd_$Item].No_ IN (@itemfilter)).
Now this only returns the first item that I enter on my Itemfilter parameter.
Does anyone have any clue in regards to this ?? I am sure I am using the wrong syntax, but I do not know what to change it too.
Thanks

Hi all
Basically I had 2 paramater which ComputerName and MemberName.
The membername was set as Multi-Value as sets as follow:
Label: Value:
Exclude Domain Admins Domain Admins
Exclude Local Install Local Install
And the query is:
SELECT id,
ComputerName,
GroupName,
MemberName,
ScanDate
FROM GROUPMEMBERS WITH (NOLOCK)
WHERE ComputerCN LIKE '%' + @ComputerName + '%'
AND MemberName NOT IN (@MemberName)
ORDER BY ComputerName ASC
The prompt is like this:
Computer Name [ ] Excluded by [ ]
The issue is in the second prompt I have to select
"something" which is I don't want to. I want the user to have this parameter as an optional.
Any ideas?
Thanks
I am working on reports in SSRS 2008 (not R2)... There are some reports with parameters that are hidden when the report is accessed through normal URL using ReportViewer.asx..The thing is that these hidden parameters need to be visible when the report is accessed using SSRS Report Manager.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI know this is the code to add a single valued report parameter to a report via asp.net
Dim paramList As New Generic.List(Of ReportParameter)
paramList.Add(New ReportParameter("MyParameter", "MyValue", False))
Me.ReportViewer1.ServerReport.SetParameters(paramList)
But how do I go about adding a multi valued parameter?
I am trying to figure out a way to toggle the visibility of attribute data based on a parameter. Specifically, I have a report that has many columns that an end-user may not want to see, depending on what they are using the report for. I know you can toggle visibilities on individual columns easily enough, however I want the user to be able to select which fields (at the attribute level) they want visible on the report up in the parameters, via a multi-value prompt.
Is this possible with reporting services 2005?
Thanks.
Hi All,
I have a report parameter which i multivalue. I want to display the selected value in a text box. I have written the following code :
=Switch(Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Count = 1,Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Value(0),
Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Count = 2,(Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Value(0) & ", " & Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Value(1)))
Which suggests that if only one of the two multivalue parameter id is selected display the same (Parameters!ServiceAttribute.Value(0)).
This works fine when i select both the attributes but throws an exception "Index was outside the bounds of the array" when i select only one of the parameters. Can anyone help me with that?
Also i want this report parameter to allow null i.e. if a user does not select anything he should still be able to view the report.
In case of regular dropdowns i have added a <Null> value to the existing values and set the default to null. But in case of multi-value, it does not give an option of adding <Null>
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.
I'm building a report and I want to have a parameter that has multiple integer values (not text).I can get it to work just fine if I create a value for each and every numeric value, but I want the user to only see two choices in the dropdown menu (plus the "Select All" that gets automatically created when I tick the box for "Allow multiple values"). How can I make this work?
For example, for my TYPE parameter I'd like something like this:
Label: Tigers
Value: 2
Label: Lions Bears Oh My
Value: 1,3,4,5,6
But I can't seem to set a multiple Value for an integer. And I can't seem to wrap the value with quotes and use Text as the Data Type because it says an error occured during processing (I assume because the field I'm going against is of the Integer format).My query would look something like this (the real one is a lot more complex):
SELECT
v_R_System.Netbios_Name0
,v_GS_COMPUTER_SYSTEM_EXT.PCSystemType0
FROM
v_R_System
INNER JOIN v_GS_COMPUTER_SYSTEM_EXT
ON v_R_System.ResourceID = v_GS_COMPUTER_SYSTEM_EXT.ResourceID
WHERE
v_GS_COMPUTER_SYSTEM_EXT.PCSystemType0 IN (@TYPE)
I've tried different Expressions, filters, options, syntax, and what-not, but I think I'm missing something basic.
Hi All
New user here. I've got a report with a couple of multi-value parameters and I'm displaying the selected values on the report using = Join(Parameters!ReportingGroup.Value, ", "). This works properly.
The users now want the report to display "All" if "Select All" is chosen, rather than showing the whole list.
Can anybody help me with this? I'm thinking of using an IIF statement in my expression, but have no idea how to define the condition?
Thanks in advance
