I am hoping to eliminate extra white space between groupings. I have a report with details that are suppressed if the GroupBy for the Property parameter is Yes. The problem is that it shows rows in between the groups.
=IIF(Parameters!GroupBy.Value="Property",True,False)
Thanks
Let's do something like Below:
Go to Row which you wish to Hide
Right click and go to Row Visibility
Then give IIF condition as visibility Criteria.
=IIF(Parameters!Property.Value="Yes",True,False)
This will Hide your extra rows when Parameter property is set as Yes.
Just for simple checking you could bydefault hide extra row without any condition and see if this works.
Then you could go step by step.

Is there any way yo hide the part of the tablix that tells you what the column names are and only shows the numbers?
So in this table, hiding the first row with all the text and only having the second row with all the numbers.
It’s pretty straightforward, as you do not have any condition to hide and show column headers you simply wish to hide them. Try below settings will help you
Right click on the row where column name is printed
2. select row visibility
3. click on 'hide row'
That’s it, it will hide column.
Below link for reference.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/reporting-services/report-builder/hide-an-item-report-builder-and-ssrs?view=sql-server-2017
Now if you wish to hide based on some condition try below settings.
Right click on the row where customer name is printed
2. select row visibility
3. click on 'show or hide based on expression'
4. click on expression button and enter your expression
=iif(count(Fields!TranNumber.Value,"Customer")=0,true,false)
Note : In the above expression, replace the "Customer" with the name of your group.
You can go to the Tablix's Properties and in the Grouping section, select Advanced. Under Row Groups, select the first Static row. The Tablix Member should be in the Properties window and set the Hidden Field to True.
I have a report containing a Tablix/table with sets of rows and columns which I am hiding conditionally using Expressions, via the Column/Row Visibility dialog.
If for example I have 3 columns which I want to all have the same Expression to determine their visibility, is there any way for me to achieve this without opening the Column Visibility dialog for each Column and entering the appropriate Expression?
I've tried selecting multiple columns, but then the right-click context menu no longer offers the Column Visibility option (it's greyed out) and I have also tried out the Hidden property of the columns (which can be amended in bulk by selecting multiple columns), but this only stops the columns from being rendered, leaving a blank space where they used to be (rather than how Column Visibility works, where columns to the right of the hidden columns are moved across to fill the gap, like hiding columns in an Excel sheet).
Is it possible to achieve what I'm after, or will I have to continue opening the Column/Row Visibility dialog for each column/row I wish to conditionally hide/show?
If the columns you want to control the visibility for are next to each other, you can create a Column Group for them and manage the visibility via the Group.
Add a new column group at the appropriate level so that only the relevant columns will be included.
If you already have Column Groups this will likely be a Child Group or an Adjacent Group.
If not, you can create an initial Column Group by dragging a Dataset field from the Report Data into the Groups pane.
Insert new columns inside the new group, and move the data from your existing relevant columns into the group.
The new group does not need to repeat, so in it's properties window set Group on: to a plain text value, e.g. "1".
Input the desired visibility settings into the Visibility page of the properties window.
For each of the individual columns inside the group set the Hidden property to False, to remove any other expressions or settings that might interfere.
Not exactly what you are looking for but perhaps a midway point - and this can apply to many things other than visibility (e.g. background colour, tooltip) - edit the RDL directly using View Code. This has the added benefit of being able to implement changes that are almost identical per column instead of identical with a minimum of mouse usage.
Typically I have set one column up the way I like it in the designer and then copy/paste under the other columns. In the case of visibility look for <TablixColumnHierarchy><TablixMemebers>. You will see a list of empty <TablixMember /> items along with the expanded <TablixMember><Visibility><Hidden>=... block where you have set up one column. Simply copy paste that block over the empty items at the position of interest (you will need to count it out unfortunately as there are no identifiers).
Bonus Tip: If you make a mistake or want to change something later, you can do a replace on all expressions at once (optional regex allowed).
Remember to backup or check in your work first because the designer may not open that report again correctly if you make a mistake :-)
Select the columns you want to conditionally hide and press F4 to see the Properties Window. Look for the Visibility node and use the Hidden property to set the conditionally expression.
The expression should evaluate to True for hiding and False for showing.
Let me know if this helps.
I have made a matrix report in SSRS with two column groups. I have added one of the column group also in the Row groups to use page break so I can have each column group on a separate page.
And you see in the following pictures the preview of what has happened with the output.
Page One
Page Two
You see that the page break has worked but it doesn’t hide the other column that shouldn’t be present.
Does somebody has a clue how to fix this?
I don't think just adding a page break will hide the column group's visibility. In SSRS, you can set visibility of a column group based on a condition. Right click on the column group, select Group Properties, Select "Visibility", and "Show and Hide Based on Expression".
You could set an expression based on a field or parameter value. For example, if a parameter value is such, the visibility is true, else false. Example:
=IIF(Parameters!"PARAMNAME".Value.Equals(value),false,true)
I would think in your case, if some a field was null or blank, hide the column group. The page break will take care of itself.
I have solved it with the list object in the toolbox.
I have put the matrix in the list and used a page break on the list.
I am using SSRS 2012 for my report. I want to hide certain columns in a report. I don't want to see spaces between columns in my report when a middle column is not visible. I have an expression that hides or make visible a certain column base on the value selected.=IIF(CBool(Parameters!Column.Value)=True,True,False)
But the issue I have with this is that I see spaces between columns in the table when the report is rendered.
In the image below, I want to be able to hide the Code column at the middle of the table without seeing any gap between columns in the table. Thanks for the help.
I'm assuming that you highlighted the Code column and then added the expression to the Hidden property in the Properties Pane?
Try right clicking on the column, selecting Column Visibility, and then entering your expression in the box under the 'Show or hide based on expression' radio button. This should collapse the column and not leave any whitespace when your parameter is set to true.
I have a report in SSRS 2008 that has the following structure:
List
Tablix
Row Group
Row1
Field
Row2
Subreport
Is it possible to completely hide the first row in the row group, based on some condition?
I can hide the row, but the empty row still takes up space, I want the empty row to take up no space at all.
Part of the answer is given in the discussion that this question links to:
Try to set the Hidden property of the Static Row Group under the Details Group, in this case the whole row will disappear instead of the content of the textboxes.If you are using Report Builder, you need to switch to Advanced Mode (make sure that the Properties and the Grouping windows are displayed, go to the upper right side of the Grouping window and press the black triangle), click on the second "Static" item under the "(Details)" group and you can set the Hidden property on the Properties window.
However, this causes an exception when trying to export the report as PDF.
you can write an expression for the visibility of row.
