How do you custom name only the last page in a report? in a way where it overrides any page names already generated from any groupings.
There are at least two ways to do this.
The easiest is if you can change the last group name in your dataset to be whatever you want. However, I guess this is might not be suitable.
The second way
There are a few assumptions here as you have given almost no information in your question.
Assumes your group is sorting alphabetically.
Let's assume your groups are department names.
Accounts
Client Service
Sales
Warehouse
Your page name expression would be something like
=IIF(Fields!GroupColumn.Value = MAX(Fields!GroupColumn.Value, "myDataSet"), "The Last Page", Fields!GroupColumn.Value)
Basically we are just checking to see if the group name is the same as the last (Maximum) group name in the entire dataset, if so, use a literal value, if not just use the group name.

I want to create a single rectangle on a report that displays red if there are more then 2 distinct projects being worked on within that week (see image below):
http://imgur.com/dPHW1TT
I'd need to write some kind of expression like IIF(CountDistinct(Fields!Project_Name.Value)> 1, "Red","White") but the issue is that I need the projects to be aggregated per user.
As you can see in the above report I have it grouped on User >> Project, and thats what I'd need to captcher in this single expression.
Is there any way to specify a group in an expression?
I've actually managed to do what I wanted via filtering on the tables group, and then hiding all the cells bar one in the table.

Although if anyone knows a way to group within an expression I would still be interested in knowing.
Thanks
I have an SSRS report that is currently pulling a single dataset. This dataset contains records of inventory we have. Each record is a separate asset.
I want my report to group by a certain field, and then subgroup by certain criteria that are determined with a couple different fields. Basically there is one parent group, and three adjacent subgroups. My grouping functionality is working correctly, however I am finding it difficult to add totals to each of the adjacent subgroups. When I add a total, it is totaling the specific field within the scope of the entire dataset, instead of limiting the total to just that subgroup.
How can I add totals per field within subgroup?
EDIT: Added sample data and explanation:
You can ignore the function code field, that is what I am using to group on the parent group.
asset number,description,first year,acquisition cost,function code
190,random asset,2008,5000,100
193,random asset45,2008,56000,100
197,random asset26,2014,3000,100
191,random asset27,2014,7000,100
192,random asset36,2013,15000,100
I can't seem to attach screenshots, so here goes..
In the report you can see three subgroups; Assets, AssetAdditions, AssetDeletions. In the tablix, you can see where these groups are positioned. You can also see a row directly beneath the group that is supposed to total the subgroup at the end. However, for some reason the scope is only taking into account the entire dataset. I have tried to modify the expression in the Sum function [Sum(acq_cost), "Assets"], adding in the scope parameter but then it does not allow me to even run the report. It yells at me saying that "Assets" is an invalid scope.
The easiest way I have done this in 2012 VS is to have it return as part of the data set and have it sum up the value.
For instance if you have a quantity for inventory, and you have a subset where you only want the total quantity for that set, you add another column to your dataset called TotalSetQuantity and the subtotal field will have the expression =SUM(Fields!TotalSetQuantity.Value) rather than =SUM(Fields!Quantity.Value).
You can try iif statements within your report like =sum(iif(Fields!ColA.Value=1,Fields!Quantity.Value,0) but I had some troubles getting that to work.
Hope that helps, I ran into this issue this past week and the first option worked like a charm for me.
I'm converting some reports from Access to Oracle. Within Access you can use multiple headers but within SSRS you cannot.
I need to place (within the header of SSRS) a field which takes its value from the value of the current row group.
I know it's unnecessary however, those are the requirements I have been given within the spec.
Any idea how I would achieve this?
If I understand the requirements correctly, you can do something similar in SSRS. Some similar data to yours:
And a table based on this:
There is a group based on DepartmentName. This is set to page break for each group member.
Note that I have three group header rows: one to display the Department Name at the top of the page, one for the columns headers and one for spacing.
Since this is in the Group scope, it will always display the correct name:
I am using SSRS 2008. I have 3 different groups above my report details that are calculated sums. I am trying to color the limit red if any of the invoice sums(A) in a child group is above the limit(B).
I am currently using this expression, but it is only looking at the first or last invoice amount. The limit report item is in a parent group just above the invoice's group.
=IIF(ReportItems!Invoice_DueDate.Value>ReportItems!Limit.Value,"Red","Black")
My Solution: I decided to use SQL to get the sum of the invoice amount grouped by due date. I then called that field in the parent group.
If I understand your question correctly, then I think you can use
=IIF(MAX(ReportItems!Invoice_DueDate.Value) > ReportItems!Limit.Value,"Red","Black")
You need some sort of aggregate function, such as MAX() to tell SSRS what the scope and operation of what should be done. (For example if you wanted to make sure the total didn't exceed the limit, you would use SUM(...)
You can reference parent groups from a child group using aggregate expressions specifying the parent group Scope.
For example, say we have some simple data:
And a simple table based on this, with a group based on grp.
Here the BackgroundColor property for the value textbox in the detail row is set as:
=IIf(Fields!value.Value > Min(Fields!limit.Value, "Group1")
, "Red"
, Nothing)
This checks all rows in the parent group of the current row, not just the current row. This works as expected:
Without knowing your data it's impossible to say if this will work in your case, but hopefully it gives you something to consider.
Edit after comments
OK, based on further comments it seems like you need aggregate on aggregate functionality.
This is available via SSRS expressions in 2008R2 and above only, so this won't help in your case.
For older versions, your best option might be to add an extra field to your Dataset that supplies the maximum Invoice value for each group, and then you can use this value without issues in the parent group.
There are some workarounds around that suggest using custom code to do this, such as this post, but I've never used this suggested solution and would only even consider it if you don't have any control over the report Dataset.
I have a SQL Server Reporting Services report that shows customer order data, but it's grouped as follows:
Store
Customer
Customer Order Items
So, each report is a grouping of stores, with a subgroup of customers per store, and then the items per customer. I'm trying to show aggregate sale and other information at each header record of the appropriate group in the report. Most of this is working well, but for each store header record, I want to show a count of the customers. I'm trying to use some variation and\or combination of RowCount, CountDistinct and other aggregate functions, but to no avail.
Can anyone help me determine how I essentially can get a "count" of customer groups to show at the Store level header? TIA!
CountDistinct on Customer should work fine - no need to specify scope if it's in the Store group header row.
I put a simple test together.
Data:
Report in designer:
Most important thing to note is the CountDistinct on Customer in the Store header row; this is just the expression used:
=CountDistinct(Fields!customer.Value)
End result, showing correct values:
Please let me know if I'm missing something.
Edit after comment:
Apologies in advance for how long this is getting.
The previous report did have row groups for Store and Customer, but I've modified this to make it more clear, hopefully. Still based on the same DataSet:
You can see there are three row groups, and each row in the report is actually a group header row belonging to one of those groups.
In the Store group header row I've kept that same CountDistinct expression. I've also added a CountRows() expression to show how many actual rows are available in each of the different groups.
Here you can see for Store1, CountRows is returning 4, i.e. there are four rows that we are aggregating in this scope, which is what we expect looking at the DataSet.
Similarly, when we apply =CountDistinct(Fields!customer.Value) in the Store scope we are considering these same 4 rows, and we see two distinct customers for Store1, which seems correct to me.
For Store2 we are considering 6 rows in total, which have three distinct customers. Again, just by applying =CountDistinct(Fields!customer.Value) we get correct value.
Hopefully this rejigged report helps clear things up. If I'm still not getting your requirements, can you please explain what numbers are wrong in my sample report based on my sample DataSet? That way I can adjust things easily on my side.
