SSRS Pivot Creating Extra Rows - reporting-services

I have a report and need to pivot on SLOC (storage location). It all works great except it creates extra rows due to the storage bins being different even though I'm not grouping on them. The first image shows what I have. The second image shows what I want. How do I 'push up' the rows?
Rows Grouped on "Part Kit" then "Material"
Columns Grouped on "SLOC"
Currently Looks Like this
I want it to look like this

You can achieve the desired format by adding a row number to group on. This will tell the report where to position things. In this case I added a row number like this:
ROW_NUMBER()OVER(PARTITION BY SLOK, PartMaterial ORDER BY StorageBin) as RN
Here is a sample of how it looked before:
And here it is after I grouped the rows by the row number:
Of course, you can hide the row number, but this shows why and how it works. In this case, I added a child row group after the part material and grouped and sorted it by the row number.

SSRS - How to create a sum (total) of an expression column?

After plenty of research, it seemd I can't find a well-explained solution to my problem. I'll join some screenshots of my Tablix, group rows, and group columns to help you to understand.
First of all, here's my tablix. It's linked to a SharePoint List.
The expressions are all like this :
=Count(Fields!ID.Value, "NameOfTheGroup")
It counts the number of elements that are filtered by one of the group chosen in the expression, and it works perfectly fine at this point.
Now, here's my groups :
They all contains filters tomanage the count precisely to the need.
What I want to do : In the last row, I want to display the sum of each column that is in a group row. But theses rows aren't datasets fields, they are just only expressions, and I can't find a way to create a proper total of each column. I heard of Running Value but the few solutions I found about it didn't work.
Thanks for the future help.
EDIT: Actually, the problem seems to be much more complex: any rows I create under my group rows are invisible : if I create a new row under the "Classification", outside the "Classification" row group, the expression I insert in the "CDI", "CDD", etc... columns stay blank. I tried with various expression or just values like "Hello World".

SSRS - Merging cells of specific columns

I am developing a complex report in SSRS which should like below
Screenshot 1
output returned by stored proc have multiple rows of one User ID and based on that columns "Successful Orders -- Online - Total Orders", "Successful Orders -- Online - Total Amount" & likewise Retail - Total, Other - Total columns cells should be merged based on respective User Id.
I have used tablix control and tried adding grouping over columns which needs to be merged but it is not working as expected. in order to group I am setting Sum of returned Value in cell but yet no luck.
Can you please provide me some pointers in order to achieve whats expected. please let me know if you need more information

also, distorted output with inner tablix. borders are causing issues

Try placing a tablix in the cells containing the multiple rows to display them. Basically, you need to switch your approach from "How do I merge these cells?" to "How do I split these cells." Set up your grouping at the level you want your totals and then in each of the columns where you want the details displayed, add a tablix to display the details. You'll need to play with the grouping a bit to get it display correctly.
More details:
The sample you provided above should be one group level row, not multiple detail level rows. Add your group to that Tablix and the summaries you want for your Total columns. Then Merge each of the "Mode" and "Count" column pairs and insert a Tablix into that merged cell with the same grouping as the row with the Totals, but with only the Details row displayed (don't add group header or footer and delete the blank row and summary column that automatically gets added). Now just set your field values for Mode and Count and adjust your column widths to match the headings.
Here's a REALLY simple report that displays a Plant and the employees associated with that plant. This is the top level where you Totals group would go. The next image is the "inner" part, where you would add in another Tablix with the same group(s), but only the details displayed.
This is super simple example and you may need to include additional levels of grouping to match your report, but the fundamentals still the same - an "outer" Tablix with an "inner" Tablix with matching group(s).
There's a lot you can do with this approach by manipulating the groups, hiding/displaying different groups or even hiding the details and displaying subtotals.

SSRS Report Custom Sorting rows

I have report which shows data of site and some values of each calender week. There is 1 row which contains values for whole group. I want group row on top and other sites alphabetically. I tried to sort but group row does not come on top. I cannot manually sort it 1 by 1 as sites column is random as sites may vary every week, is it possible somehow to have GROUP row on top always and other sites below?
I want sorting like given in screenshot
You need to "add total - before" to row groups.
You could right click "Details" in Row Group to "add total->before". In addition, if you want to sort column, you also could refer to this post
and this post for details.

SSRS: Group Totals need to be displayed together

I've a report which is Grouped by Book ABC and then grouped by State to display the total of Qty.
Is it possible to display the Group totals all together at the bottom of the report ? Something like below:
Here is my Report Design:
It is a table within a table.
Thanks in advance.
I would do this with an Adjacent Group.
With data similar to yours (adding an extra Book):
I have a simple table, grouped by Book, which looks and acts like you'd expect:
Now, in the designer I will add an Adjacent Group, adjacent to the existing Details group, grouped on State:
Which looks like:
Now, within each Book I have two repeating groups, one that shows each detail row, then one that shows each State in that Book scope:
This seems pretty close to your requirement.

Interactive sorting in tablix with column and row groupings

I'm trying to define interactive sorting in a tablix. The sorting should affect the row order.
Attaching image of the tablix in order to explain what I'm trying to get:
I already tried to define the column header with interactive sorting and get SubjectParentID to be sorted by expression (the same expression as described bellow). The final setting I made is to apply the sorting to all groups in the tablix -
Attaching image:
The result wasn't current and the data got messed up in the cells.
Additional information: The columns are grouped by SubjectParentID. The rows are grouped by Username as parent and UserID as a child group.
The values are result of the following expression :
=iif(isNothing(Fields!ResReqCertID1.Value),
-99,
Sum(iif(Fields!CertStatusID.Value = 3
Or Fields!CertStatusID.Value = 4
Or Fields!CertStatusID.Value = 5,
1,
0)) - Fields!ResReqCertID1.Value)
In the Text Box Properties / Interactive Sorting window, change the Groups selection to the UserID group (assuming that is the most-detailed group providing the rows in your example).
This can't be done, interactive sorting cannot sort row groups by column values calculated within that group.
If you have 4 static columns you could hard code them. Then having no need for column groups interactive sorting should work as expected.
You could also define a static number, say 10, of dynamic columns, and use pivoting in the thebsql query to get columns 1-10 and their labels. Then set up 10 columns with interactive sorting on the Value_1 fields, and hide them if no data exist for that column. You could then also have an 11th column which also does column grouping but doesn't do sort if there's any chance you'll ever exc3ed the 10 columns.
You could also do this: https://www.c-sharpcorner.com/article/ssrs-interactive-sorting-on-matrix-column-group/ which is somehow even more complicated than my two solutions.
But yeah, you basically can't do this. SSRS cannot be told to sort row groups on values calculated from within the context of the column group that contained the copy of text box in which the sort button was clicked.
