Fixed Row With Grouping in Mind? - reporting-services

I have this data which i want to create a report using a SSRS
The document column is grouped by customer column.
However there's conditions for the report
- Every 10 Rows the report should trigger a page break.
- If the record less than 10, then empty row will be generated until 10 rows then page break trigger.
- If the record more than 10, then only first 10 will be displayed then the rest is on next page.
Here's the sample of result for page 1, page 2, and page 3:
Is there a way to do this ?

Add a new row group "Parent" , click on the group properties, and on the group expressions enter the expression: =Floor((RowNumber(Nothing)-1) / 10)
go to the next tab down, page breaks and click on between each instance of a group.

row labels are missing on new page RDLC reports

I have RDLC report on which I have multiple rows for every employee, I hides employee names after 1st row, right!
Now I have a issue when same employee's rows goes to next page it shows widowed records (without employee name).
To hide employee name on next rows I am using this code:
=IIF(Fields!Name.Value <> Previous(Fields!Name.Value), Fields!Name.Value, nothing)
I also tried adding new group, and got rank from stored procedure, but nothing helps.
Is there any way to get that if the row is 1st row of page?
Or any other way to achieve the same?
Thanks in advance
Finally I Resolved this issue by 1st adding group on top level with this formula
=CEILING(RowNumber(Nothing)/50)
and in the text box this group returns me row number according to each page, So,I updated my formula for text box to:
=IIF(Fields!Name.Value <> Previous(Fields!Name.Value) OR RowNumber("PageRowGroup")=1, Fields!Name.Value, nothing)

SSRS report to print labels from a roll

Does anyone have any experience of creating a report that will print labels that are on a roll?
I can see plenty of examples for a sheet of labels, but nothing with any great detail regarding a roll.
Would the best method be to set the report page up to have 1 column and then adjust the size of the page to be the size of the label?
There will be different info on each label, and a varying number of labels per print.
So basically set up the report to mirror the label size and then repeat pages depending on how many labels need printing?
You should just be able to set your report to have the same page size as your label then design the report as normal.
As for producing multiple labels, you can either
have a single dataset containing all the info you need for all labels and group by whatever makes each label unique (e.g. a label number). Then add a page break on the row group property to put a break between each, or ..
you could create a subreport that just handles a single label and then have a master report that with a table control with a single 'cell' and the subreport inside that cell. You would then pass the parameters to the subreport from the main dataset. I think you've seen a similar answer I posted about printing sheets of labels, if you follow that then it should get you most of the way there.
Option 1 is probably the simplest method...
Step-by-Step for option 1
In this example I've used the Microsoft sample database WideWorldImporters, just so I could get some names and addresses.
Step 1: Write your query to get your data. In my example I used the following..
SELECT top 10 o.OrderID, c.CustomerName, c.DeliveryAddressLine1, c.DeliveryAddressLine2, cty.CityName, c.DeliveryPostalCode
FROM [Sales].[Orders] o
JOIN Sales.Customers c on o.CustomerID = c.CustomerID
JOIN Application.Cities cty on c.DeliveryCityID = cty.CityID
ORDER BY OrderID
This just gives me the order number, company name and address.
Step 2: Create a new report. I'm using Visual Studio but the process is almost identical in Report Builder if you use that.
Create a new, blank report
Add a datasource and dataset containing your query from step 1
Select the 'body' and set the size property to your label size. I used 100mm, 40mm
Select the 'report' and set the PageSize property to the same values as above and the margins to 0
Step 3: Add a table to contain the data
Add the new table
Delete the header row
Delete the last column (I have a two column label in my example but obviously up to you)
Select the table (tablix) using the grey table handle (top left of the table) and then set the dataset property to the name of the dataset you created earlier
Add enough rows to contain all your data, in my case 6 in total
In the RowGroups panel under the main report design, right-click the details rowgroup and choose Add Group => Parent Group. Select OrderID as the field to group on and click OK
Remove the newly added column and if prompted choose 'remove column only'
Right-Click the (OrderID) Row group and go to Group properties, click Page Break and choose 'between'
Set each row to contain your data until you end up with something like....
Clean up the formatting and that should be it. One label per page and each page set to your label size.
You may need to adjust the layout slightly to adjust for margins etc but this should give you a good start.

SSRS rows in tablix outside group goes to next page

I have a SSRS report that looks like the following:
Report Header:
Page X of Total Page Y (based on change of Customer ID)
Customer ID (Referring to ReportItem!CustomerID)
Report Body:
A tablix page break by change of group Customer ID
Tablix Header: Date | Price | Quantities | Description | Hidden Column Customer ID
Tablix Details: YYYY-MM-DD | 1.00 | 500 | Blah Blah | Customer ID (used for page header referring)
Row outside group: Empty
Row outside Group: Sum of Price
Row outside Group: Sum of Quantities
Row outside group: Empty
Row outside group: *** END OF RECORDS ***
Report Footer:
Company address
Occasionally, the Row outside group will go to next page if the report body for the tablix details are full, which causing in the next page, only some of the rows outside group will be displayed (e.g. * END OF RECORDS *).
Then, in the report header, the Customer ID field cannot get the value of ReportItem!CustomerID which leave it blank.
Is there anyway to solve the blank issue? Or make the row outside group must attach to the tablix details in the same page? For some reason, I cannot limit the number of rows display per page. Thanks.
Maybe you can try throwing in another hidden copy of the final "Customer ID" somewhere on the "END OF RECORDS" group row and then use an IIF to call that one if the original hidden "Customer ID" you have isn't present on the final page.
You can control when the page breaks occur and keep the elements together, but it's not very intuitive. First, don't use actual Headers and Footers. Just use textboxes that will appear at the beginning and end of each Customer's data. Second, you need to wrap everything in a grouped rectangle. This will be grouped by customer with page breaks set to happen between instances.
See my answer here for more details on how to do this.
If I was going to display "Body" object values in the report header, I would create a hidden expression text object somewhere in the "Body" that uses a Code call ( Report Properties, Code ) to put the value into a shared variable. Then, that gives you a set variable, get variable, type of situation. The variable is updated as the "Body" object appears throughout the report, and the variable 'sticks' across pages where the object does not necessarily occur.

SSRS: Subtotal on filtered row

I've a custom Invoice that I'm building and it's divided up into four sections. I have built the data set so that it has the following data:
Code, Earnings, Rate, Cost, Total, Section
My stored procedure attaches a section based on criteria in within.
I placed a table on the report and added the first 4 data elements and then put a row visibility constraint on it based on section <> 1. Then I added three more tables to the report, each instead having the row visibility constraint <> 2,3,4.
All this displays properly.
Now in each table, i want to subtotal only the rows that are visible based on the filter. But when I try to do a sum, I get the "grand total" of all rows(unfiltered).
In the sample picture below you can see the 4 sections and the red circles show where =SUM(Fields!Total.Value) display the "grand total". The values should be:
17,887.55
0
32.48
22.86
Ideas?
Thanks,
PS It won't let me display the image of my report, so i have it here on my Microsoft Exchange OneDrive: http://1drv.ms/1HPXdgO
It seems like you have a row group on “wc code/Description”. You just need to pass scope (name of the row group) in your sum method. So your method will look like:
=SUM(Fields!Total.Value,””)
Here is what I did to solve the problem though it's a work around rather than actually doing what I wanted SSRS to do.
I added four more records to my stored procedure each one grouping by section and forcing a section 101, 102, 103, and 104 to correspond to sections 1, 2, 3, and 4. Then a fifth record is added to correspond to the grand total record and section 1000 is used to denote this.
Then I added 4 more tables(each having only one row) to the report each filtering on 101, 102, 103, and 104 respectively and the grand total table filtering on 1000.
This makes the report function as per my requirements. If anyone knows how to do it in the report designer, please reply and i'll mark as solution.

Display data in SSRS

I have two tables on the SSRS report which displays data depending on the results returned by a single dataset.
The second table displays a subset of data which is displayed on the first depending on some parameters.Now I would like to implement a functionality which displays "no rows" in the second table if the countrows=0 (subset returned from first table) and display the data(subset of data in the first table) if the countrows>0
How can I implement this?
There is a property on the table called "NoRows" that allows you to enter any text you want to show if there are no rows returned.
you can also use this solution:
for your dataset2 click the tablix and at the bottom you shall have Row groups. Click on each of the row groups. So if you have 1 child and 1 parent you will have to do this on both.
1) Right click group_child->group properties->filters and put the following expression "=IsNothing(Fields!Group_Child.Value)="True"" "; set it as boolean expression and 'value'='False' and you will have to do same for Group_parent1 thru n.
This will display NO rows if you have NO data for bottom dataset. If this is the same thing you want to do with Tablix 1 go for it.
