I'm trying to figure out how to count the total entries that contain a specific value among multiple values. So, for example, the field contains one or more codes (i.e. I, A, B, P) and I'm trying to find all the entries that contain a code of I regardless of any other codes also in there. The expression I tried is =Sum(IIf([Risk] Like "I",1,0)), but it will only show the total number of entries that ONLY contain I. It will not add in those fields that contain multiple codes such as I / A / P. Is there a way to modify this expression to include all entries that have a code of I regardless of any other codes mixed in?
An example of my current report results would be:
I
I
I / A
I / A / B
I
I / B
=Sum(IIf([Risk] Like "I",1,0)) will return a total value of 3 entries instead of the proper 6 entries

I am just starting out in SSRS and have a dataset that looks like the below.
I have built this in a matrix table like so
I want to show what percentage each of the rows total is of the grand total, so for the attached image I would want to show what percentage 35 (counselling calls) is of 47 (total) and what percentage Legal calls (12) is of total (47)
I have tried =Fields!Calls.Value/sum(Fields!Calls.Value) but that just gives me 100% for both?
Would appreciate any help
You need to specify the scope of your SUM() expressions.
I'll briefly explain how scopes work and then get to the answer.
SSRS always evaluates an expression based on it's scope which is usually defined by the physical location of the expression within table/matrix. As you can see from your design all 4 textboxes show the same expression, [SUM(Calls}] which in fact is actually =SUM(Fields!Calls.Value). However they give different results because the scope of each is different. The first is in the category rowgroup and the month column group for example, the second one is in the category row group but in the total month group, and so on...
OK, now to the answer !
Assumming
your rowgroup is called 'CategoryGroup` (you will see the name in the rowgroup panel under the main designer)
your dataset is called DataSet1
You expression should be
=SUM(Fields!Calls.Value, "CategoryGroup") / SUM(Fields!Calls.Value, "DataSet1")
This basically reads..
Take the sum of the call column for all rows that are within the current CategoryRowgroup and divide by the sum of the call column across the whole dataset.
Notes
The scope names must be enclosed in quote and are case sensitive
The scope names must match either a row or column group, or a dataset name exactly.
the , "CategoryGroup" scope argument can probably be omitted as this should be the scope of the textbox anyway.
I've researched previous answers, nothing seems relevant to this question.
I have a simple matrix, showing data from "Dataset A" - counts in the rows and month/years in the columns.
I have a second matrix, showing data from "Dataset B" with the same layout.
I wish to create a third matrix, or add a total line to the second matrix, showing the sum of each month's figures. See screenshot;
Image showing dataset A (orange header) and dataset B (blue header) and items I wish to sum
I have tried adding a new row to the dataset B matrix and using the following formula -
=SUM(Fields!Counts.Value) + Sum(Fields!Counts.Value, DatasetA")
However this fails to take into account the month groupings from Dataset A, and instead sums the correct number from Dataset B with the total number from Dataset A - not just the figure for the appropriate month.
How can I make this sum work, ensuring that only the relevant months are summed across both datasets?
Thanks!
Update: Using the LOOKUP function I have made a little progress but still have been unable to sum the two numbers (See image, below). I tried the following lookup expression to build the total;
=Sum(Fields!Counts.Value) + LOOKUP(Fields!ReceivedMonth.Value, Fields!ReceivedMonth.Value, Fields!Counts.Value, "DatasetA")
But it appears that I'm unable to SUM the Fields!Counts.Value, "DatasetA" inside the lookup (it throws a syntax error), so the total result is displaying at the total from DatasetB plus 1.
Image showing result of LOOKUP - not quite correct
I have a tablix that I have filtered by two codes and this returns two lines each with the code and the relevant value associated with them.
I would like to write an expression that allows me to divide each value with each other and display just one line with the result.
Expected result:
Is this possible to do?
If your two values are not in the detail section you can use the following expresseion as your Gorss Profit:
=ReportItems!TextboxName500.Value / ReportItems!TextboxName250.Value
Where TextboxName500 is the name of the textbox which holds the value 500.
I am working on a report in Access 2013 I need to seperate the first 20 records in a column that contain a value and assign a name to them. Such as at 1-20 I need it to insert Lot 1 at 21-40 need to assign Lot 2 etc... The report needs to be separated by lots of 20. I can also just insert a line when it reaches sets of 20 without a name if that makes it easier. Just need something to show a break at sets of 20.
Example: As you can see the report is separated by welder stencil. When the count in the VT column reaches 20 I need to enter a line or some type of divider to separate data. What our client is asking for is we separate the VT in sets of 20. I don't know whats the easiest way to accomplish this. I have researched it but haven't found anything.
Example Report with Divisions
Update the report's RecordSource query by adding "Lot" values for each row. There are multiple ways of doing this, but the easiest will be if your records already have a sequential, continuous numerical key. If they do not have such a key, you can research generating such sequential numbers for your query, but it is beyond the scope of this question and no details about the actual data schema were supplied in the question.
Let's imagine that you have such a key column [Seq]. You use the modulo (mod) and/or integer division operators (\ - backslash) to determine values that are exactly divisible by 20, e.g. ([Seq] - 1) mod 20 == 0.
Generate a lot value for each row. An example SQL snippet: SELECT ("Lot " & (([Seq] - 1) \ 20)) As LotNumber ...
Utilize Access report sorting and grouping features --grouping on the new Lot field-- to print a line and/or label at the start of each group. You can also have the report start a new page at the beginning or end of such a group.
The details about grouping can be found elsewhere in tutorials and Access documentation and are beyond the scope of this question.
I've been struggling with an IIF error when trying to create a variable aggregate.
I'm using Report Builder 3.0
I have a report where users determine what fields are in a report. These fields are passed as a multivalue parameter. I use a lookup from a different dataset to determine its placement in the report, and using the same order dataset to determine if the field is numeric or not (meaning I want to sum the value based on row-level grouping). The headers pull in using the same field lookup, which works fine. At the row level I'm trying to return either the sum of the field value based on row grouping, or if non-numeric, return the value. Based on similar posts I understand that both the true and false parts are processed. I attempted to offset this error by nesting another IIF. If I remove the sum function the data returns non-numeric data fine. However if I include the sum function numeric data is processed fine however non-numeric data returns #error.
What am I missing?
Here is a definition of the data I'm referencing below:
lookupvalue: returns the fields selected by the user based on predefined order in a stored procedure.
Fieldisnumeric: indicates if the field selected is numeric or not, 0 is false, 1 is true
Fielditem: the field item in the tablix being referenced
dtsselectedfields: the dataset I'm looking up the column order and numeric properties of a field.
The number 1 indicates the first position in the variable count of fields selected by the user. Additional fields are hidden based on the count of fields passed in the parameter and are incremental (e.g 1-n).
=iif(Lookup(1, Fields!LookupValue.Value,
Fields!FieldIsNumeric.Value,"dtsSelectedFields")=0,
Fields(Lookup(1, Fields!LookupValue.Value, Fields!FieldItem.Value,
"dtsSelectedFields")).Value,iif(Lookup(1, Fields!LookupValue.Value,
Fields!FieldIsNumeric.Value, "dtsSelectedFields")=0,
Fields!MV.Value,sum(Fields(Lookup(1, Fields!LookupValue.Value,
Fields!FieldItem.Value, "dtsSelectedFields")).Value)))
****edit 12/1/2015****
For additional clarity, I'm providing additional details. Below is 'dtsSelectedFields' dataset.
FieldItem_____LookupValue_____FieldIsNumeric
Item1Desc__________1__________________0
Item1Total__________2__________________1
Item2Desc__________3__________________0
Item2Total__________4__________________1
Let's say I have one column of data, and this column would first look for a LookupValue of 1. This would return the FieldItem, 'Item1Desc'. Because this field is not numeric, I would want to return the value of Item1Desc. However let's assume my first selection was actually 'Item1Total' and I don't want to return the non-numeric Item1Desc field. In this case, because 'FieldIsNumeric'=1 indicating a numeric field, I want to take the sum of this field.
Is it possible to nest an aggregating function in an IIF statement on only one part of an IIF statement? I.e. the true part or false part?
And if so, what am I doing wrong?
An example of the tablix:
sample layout
Column 1 Header____________Column 2 Header___________Column 3 Header
Column 1 Data______________Column 2 Data_____________Column 3 Data
Sample data
Product___________________Country of Origin_________________Units
ABC Envelopes___________________China______________________15
LMN Packets_____________________India_______________________30
In the example above, user selects 3 columns, 'Product', 'Country of Origin', and 'Units'. There are other fields available that would cause multiple rows if I grouped by them in the stored procedure (for example acquisition price). Based on the lookup I return the column description as a header. The row-level detail is described as above (e.g. Return the product name and country of origin, but sum up the units).
As a workaround for my issue above, I found an (ugly?) solution.
As mentioned above, a user can select any number of columns and the report organizes them in columns based on a predefined order according to a stored procedure. (E.g. a product description would come before the sum of the units if those two columns were chosen, but a product ID may come before the product description, but only if the ID was chosen.)
For every possible number of columns a user can select, I added two columns in the report (i.e. two for each field).
The first two columns will reference the lookupvalue=1. I then set the expression of each field in the detail to 1) a sum of the value, or 2) the value itself. I then set the column visibility to the results of the 'FieldIsNumeric' column. So the summed numeric column which would return an error for non-numeric data would be hidden when FieldIsNumeric=0, and the non-numeric column referencing the lookup value =1 would be shown, and vice versa.
Needless to say additional columns would follow the same logic in sets of two, each referencing the sequential lookup value (e.g. columns 3 and 4 would reference lookupvalue=2, columns 5 and 6 would reference lookupvalue=3, and so forth. Each column within the matching pair would be displayed or hidden based on the returned value of FieldIsNumeric in the same lookup dataset.
I'm definitely open to suggestions, but thought I'd post this as a workaround solution.
