SSRS line chart category group label not working - reporting-services

I want to group my X axis on the month number but display the month name. I have this accomplished in my category group but it only displays as month number no matter what I put in the label property of the category group. I tried to follow up with this post but didn't have enough reputation.
Label expression works on the series groups, but not on category groups

Just in case anybody ends up here, I found my problem. I had the axis type set as scalar instead of category. I guess when scalar is selected the label field isn't used.

SSRS chart, how to prevent horizontal axis categories displaying when value is 0

I've placed a simple bar chart into an SSRS report which is designed to display a series of Consultant Names (along the x axis), with a corresponding count of patients who are flagged as being in the category ">18 Weeks" (on the y axis), based on the following expression:
=SUM(IIF(Fields!RTTWaitGroup.Value=">18 Weeks",1,0))
The chart renders fine. However, a number of the Consultants listed in the chart have a zero count, and therefore are listed across the x axis but with no vertical bar displayed, as you'd expect.
I'd like to configure the chart so that it only displays those consultants that have a count of 1 or more patients.
I'm not overly familiar with the syntax, but I've tried using the following expression in both the Series Properties and Chart Properties 'Visibility' options, to try and suppress x axis categories that are zero, but it doesn't have any effect on the chart:
=iif(Fields!LastConsultant.Value ="",True,False)
Please can anyone advise on correct syntax and appropriate expression field to enter it?
Presumably your consultant names will be in the category group, if so right mouse click and select category group properties.Select Filters, in the expression enter count(fields!patients.value)... for example. Change type to integer , operator to greater than and the value to 0.

SSRS: Collect Small Slices on a Pie Chart

What i want is the behaviour described here.
Basically i want to group small slices into a larger one. My problem is that the link does this based on what percentage the slices represent in the pie; I want to do this based in values of the series.
In the image below
I want to show all BizDevs as just one bizdev. can any one point me ot the right direction?
If you want to group certain categories together, you need to group on an expression that does this and not the base field.
Say I have simplified data like:
Which gives a chart as you'd expect:
In the category group we need to update the Group on value and the Label value:
Set the expression to:
=IIf(Fields!MyGroup.Value Like "BizDev*", "BizDev", Fields!MyGroup.Value)
i.e. if the group name starts with BizDev, put these in the same group.
These will now be grouped together:

ssrs 2008 R2 show/hide not working on expression

I have this problem, which I have already googled,searched on stack overflow and tried every possible solution that I could found on the internet.
I have a table like this:
When the table is initally loaded the value are not visible and have to be toggled by Filter
After I click on the value, the dataset is filtered, and the Filter group will contain only 1 Value (the one that was selected) after the report reloads.
With an expression I made the left side look orange like the following, if only 1 value in a group exists :
Now I would like to also show the value on the right, but it does not work with all expressions i tried on text box level and/or group level :
=IIF(Fields!filter.BackgroundColor = "Orange" ,false,true)
=IIF(Fields!filter.BackgroundColor <> "Orange" ,true,false)
Can someone help Please ?
After days of trying in different ways, the only working solution was to add an extra column to my dataset called "hidden". If a filter value is the only value counted (grouped by filter) then put a 0 in the hidden field ,else 1 which results in something like :
Filter Value Hidden
A B 1
A C 1
B A 0
After that, on the text field Hidden Value i used expression
=CBool(Fields!hidden.value)
This Worked Great!

SSRS - Replace the Chart

I have a question, want some assistance.
Q) My question is that i have a chart in which analyst assigned for many incidents and some analyst have 1 or two incident assigned. just because of this the bar chart looks ugly some time. So thats why i used a new chart to represent Min incident count. But i want there some creativeness, for which i want there a radio button or OnClick event ( I do not know how to use both these. When report runs by default it`ll show Max incidents count chart and when we used radio button it will show Min incidents count chart, on the same chart area no need of new area or on new page.
Kindly help me or refer me some links and with ideas. As i have searched many blogs but i didn`t get any big achievement.
Below is my Simplified query;
SELECT
Count(IncidentDimvw.Id)
,UserDimvw.FirstName AS Analyst
FROM
IncidentDimvw
FULL JOIN WorkItemDimvw
ON IncidentDimvw.EntityDimKey = WorkItemDimvw.EntityDimKey
JOIN WorkItemAssignedToUserFactvw
ON WorkItemDimvw.WorkItemDimKey = WorkItemAssignedToUserFactvw.WorkItemDimKey
JOIN UserDimvw
ON WorkItemAssignedToUserFactvw.WorkItemAssignedToUser_UserDimKey = UserDimvw.UserDimKey
WHERE
WorkItemAssignedToUserFactvw.DeletedDate IS NULL
GROUP BY
UserDimvw.FirstName
Having (Count(IncidentDimvw.Id) = (#Count))
Having Clause is right or wrong, i donot know.
I used the following expresion in series as you suggested.
=iif(Parameters!Count.Value, Max(Sum(Fields!ID.Value)), Min(Sum(Fields!ID.Value)))
Sample data is as folows;

I can think of a couple of ways to approach this:
Dynamic expressions based on parameter
Say you have a simple DataSet like:
And also a boolean parameter called showMax.
We can create a simple bar graph based on this:
The most important thing to note is that Series value is expression-based:
In the above example the expression is:
=IIf(Parameters!showMax.Value
, Max(Fields!value.Value)
, Min(Fields!value.Value))
i.e. when showMax is true, report the Max values, otherwise report the min values.
In this case I've also updated the Axis title, Chart title, and Custom legend text to be expression-based:
Axis Title: =IIf(Parameters!showMax.Value, "Max", "Min")
Chart Title: =IIf(Parameters!showMax.Value, "Max per group", "Min per group")
Custom legend text: =IIf(Parameters!showMax.Value, "Max value", "Min value")
The chart behaviour changes based on what parameter is selected as required:
Set Visibility based on parameter
Another option is simply to have to charts and hide one depending on parameter selection.
For example, for the Max chart the Hidden property can be set to:
=Not(Parameters!showMax.Value)
Setting this property correctly for each report will mean only one is ever displayed to the user, i.e. it will look dynamic.
Either of these options should work; the first keeps the layout simple in the designer makes the chart more complex, the second makes the layout more complex but keeps the charts simple.
Hopefully one option will work for you.

How to get the max of a sum?

Can anyone tell me how do I get the Max of a calculated field? Below is an image of my situation:
Note that Flag is of type int.
I want to write the expression in the image , but when I use it, it kinda does:
Sum(Sum(Fields!Flag.value))
Can anyone help me out on this. I think I need to add scope for the Sum(Flag) but when I add the group scope as EMPID as:
=iif(SUM(Fields!Flag.value,"Fields!EmpID.Value")>2,"RED",nothing)
It throws me an error saying something about the scope.
EDIT:
I need attendance of each employees. FLAG is basically 1 if absent and 0 if anything else.
The bottom row(Flag,Date,Status,Comment). Now I have an alert There:
=iif(Fields!Flag.Value=1,"RED",Nothing)
Beside the Textbox(Textbox62) in middle row(EmpID,EmpName) I did Expression:SUM(Flag) and in the Fill section in Text Box Properties i have done:
=iif(SUM(Fields!Flag.value,"Fields!EmpID.Value")>2,"RED",nothing)
So the above expression creates an alert if employee is absent more than 3 days.
The top most row(Department,Manager) can be drilled down for to see more detailed view of the report. Now my problem is, in the column (FLAG) i need to create a Background color change if any employee in a particular department is absent more than 3 days.so that we do not have to drill down all the departments in order see if any employee is absent or not.
So my approach was to see the Max(Sum(Flag))>2 then create color change. I tried:
=iif(MAX(Sum(Fields!Flag.Value))>2,"Red",Nothing)
It does not work at the Department level as it basically considers (SUM(Sum(Flag))).
Thanks................
If you don't specify the scope of an aggregate, it is assumed that you are using the current scope. For example, when you say
Sum(Fields!Flag.value)
It is interpreted as something like
Sum(Fields!Flag.value, "EmpID")
The scope is the name of the Group, not the name of a dataset field.
Depending on where it is in the table. When you want to say something like
Sum(Sum(Fields!Flag.value))
You need to specify the scope for each one that isn't going to be the current default.
In your case you should use something like this:
=iif(MAX(SUM(Fields!Flag.value, "EmpID"), "Department")>2,"RED",nothing)
Again, pay attention to which group each aggregate is referring to and where the expression is on the table.
Also, this expression in a textbox will just make the word "RED" appear in the box. If you want it to change the color, you have to put it in the "Fill color" expression in the properties.
