SSRS Report. The Problem is I already have a very established report with tons of Expressions and Calculations. I need to group the highlighted area into it's own row group. How can i do this after the fact?
You will need to create create the new group, add rows to it and then copy and paste everything down. If you have code that won't copy (e.g. custom code =code.function()), comment it out with ', copy, paste and then uncomment it.

I need to create a SSRS report with changes in UI. Previous my report format was like this:
This is new RDL format I created but grouping is creating issue:
I created this format in report design but data is not coming the way I want. My data is grouping by prospect and wellname.
Here is new format in excel sheet.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1lozF8pdnsWNC-bXqR2gyNyn8O_nGPze1/view?usp=sharing
also here is snapshot of new format:
and data is coming in this format from SQL server
This is a fairly straight forward report.
Add a tablix
Add a parent group on the tablix (Prospectname)
The tablix will add a column in the far left.
Right click on this column and delete it.. it will ask you if you want to delete the column as well as the group. Delete only the column, NOT the group.
Now right click on the DETAIL row and click insert row -> OUTSIDE group. Notice the brackets on the left.. anything outside the bracket is not inside the group.
Now place your header information inside the new row and your details inside your details.
You can add another header row... merge the rows and type.. "No data found".. set the hidden properties for this row based on countrows("nameofprospectgroup").
Do the same for a blank line at end of each group.. rightclick and insert a line below the detailed row but inside the group..
You can do the same with your summary row.
Play around a bit.. you will figure it out. Good luck
After doing all the things, I tried to make report by following this post
http://www.sqlcircuit.com/2012/03/ssrs-how-to-show-tablix-inside-tablix.html
it helped and worked for me.
I need to create student certificate using SSRS. I created new .rdl file did designed and associated with data source.
It works for single student as expected. But it does not creates report with multiple certificate while my data source returns multiple student details.
I am new for SSRS, please help me out to achieve this.
If you want to generate a certificate for each row of your dataset in the same report, you can do this with a tablix:
Add a Tablix to you your report that lists your dataset data
Drag a Rectangle into one of the Details row cells
Make the cell you dragged the Rectangle into large enough to hold all your
certificate report items
Select all your certificate items and move them into the Rectangle
Update any references to your dataset to not include a 'scope'
ie: Change =sum(Fields!ColName.Value, "Your Dataset") to =sum(Fields!ColName.Value)
Run the report
You should now have a certificate for each row in your dataset.
If you want to export multiple separate certificates, you will need to set up a data driven subscription on your report, that runs it once for each row of a returned dataset. Obviously you will need to adjust your report to be able to receive which student to generate the certificate for as a parameter.
Another way is.. if your data set is returning one row per student, then all you need to do you on your tablix is to add a parent row group.. group on StudentID.. or something unique per record.. go to group properties and add a page break at end of group. This should generate one certificate page per student..
You may need to adjust group headings and footer and things like that appear.. You will figure it out... alternatively.. watch a youtube video on how to do a basic ssrs report.
I have a subreport call StudentSub.rdl. This is linked with DataSet (stored procedure) Sp_GetStudentName(#ClassNo int). This works fine it gives always only one certificate.
Since I wanted to generate class wise certifiacte, in that case I wanted to get muliple report page wise in one PDF file. Followed below steps:
Created new RDL file called StudentReports.rdl
Linked with same data set stored procedure Sp_GetStudentName.
Drag a table from tool box to design body.
Set visibility False for table Header and some columns except one td.
Right clicked in that box (td) and inserted sub report
Right clicked sub report properties selected StudentSub subreport.
In the sub report properties added parameter ClassNo then clicked Ok.
Now When I am previewing this StudentReports by passing class no. I am getting correct number of pages.
Hope this will help others.
Thanks!
I have a subreport I am trying to link into my main report. The main report pulls back information from one database and the subreport pulls from another. I could use lookup, but I lose the ability to format so I was hoping to achieve this with a subreport.
I enter a date range via my parameters, and let's say I get 30 client/matter codes back. It page breaks at the end of each row, so the data for each client/matter ends up on its own report. The goal is for me to output a large number of reports based on date ranges. The subreport pulls in folder names, and just like the other information, the folders for only that client/matter should be on that report.
What's currently happening is on each report, it just lists ALL of the folders for ALL of the client matters on each and every report.
I've tried making the subreport an adjacent group (which you can see in the screenshot) and grouping on Client code and then matter code. I've tried making the client code and matter codes internal parameters in both reports in the hope that it help filtered. I also tried just inserting the subreport into a cell inside the matter_code group but not as a group itself.
I apologize in advance if my explanation doesn't make sense. I'm having a hard time trying to put this into words.
From your explanation I would assume that you have a subreport in a group but you are not passing anything through to it. Have you tried passing through parameters to the subreport that uniquely define the customer and the customer folders?
I've created many SSRS reports with multiple tabs, and am able to name the tabs at will using the page break/page name section of the properties window for a given tablix.
What I'm trying to solve for now, and can't find any good answers on the web for, is to create new tabs based on the result of my dataset.
The simplest example of which would be a new tab for each year of data, so now that we are in 2017 I would expect the report to add in a new tab for 2017 data (this is just a hypothetical example).
Is this possible in SSRS-2014, or do I have to settle for manual updates/additions every time I want a new tab?
You can do this. What you need to do is put the controls in the body of your report into a List control. In the Details group properties of that List control, group by year and set it up to page break between each group.
The basic steps are in the answer here below.
Create a new report with an empty body.
Add the Data Source(s), Parameter(s), and Dataset(s) that are needed. Make sure to include Year in your main dataset.
Add a List object to the body. Drag and drop it into the body from the Toolbox.
Set the Dataset for the list to the main data that has the year in it.
In the Row Groups pane of the Visual Studio report designer, right click on the Details row, and choose Group Properties. On the General page, click the Add button under Group expressions, choose Year from the Group on dropdown. This assumes you are getting this in the data.
While in the same dialog, go to the Page Breaks page and check the Between each instance of a group option. Click OK.
Add a Tablix inside the List. This is what will show your data.
Add some fields to the Tablix.
Run the report.
If your data returned information across more than one year, upon export to Excel, you will have one sheet for each year.
To set the sheet labels, you set the PageName property on the List detail properties pane.
Click the List control
In the Row Groups pane of the Visual Studio report designer, click on the Details row
Find the Page Name property in the Properties Pane, and set the expression to the Year value from the dataset =Fields!Year.Value
Now the sheets should be labeled with the year.
Per alejandro zuleta's comment, Set the desired group properties to page break between each instance of the group, when the report renders to excel it should interpret this as a sheet break.
If your group is dynamic, so too will the number of sheets.
You may also consider having a nested table (one table inside the other) where the "parent" table has no header and a single group (and cell) that controls your pagination. for instance; in your hypothetical, you could set the grouping to be something like =YEAR(fields!date.Value). then the "child" table contains the headers and groups that make up the report.
I've created a table and want to put exactly the same table right next to it (but with the other dataset's data, i.e. previous years sales).
I would love to just be able to copy and paste the current tablix and then just change the name of the dataset that the tablix uses, but I cannot find a Copy function anywhere.
Does anyone know if it is possible to copy and paste an entire tablix in a report?
Please correct me if I am taking it too simple.
Right Click on the are pointed and you should have a copy button there. Paste it anywhere you feel like, change the dataset name from the tablix properties and make sure the columns in the
second dataset are present in this tablix.
