I have data returned like this from the query. basically Actual_Volume column is giving me individual items and Nomination column is giving total corresponding values for Actual_Volume. I want total of Actual_Volume column and distinct value of Nominations.
Nominations Actual_Volume
830800 65073.3885
830800 111853.9392
830800 139085.3661
830800 287052.0938
830800 311772.7324
830800 914837.52
I want Nomination should show as 830800 and Actual Volume as 914837.52. How can we do that in SSRS?
One of the strengths of SSRS is the grouping features. This allows you to aggregate numbers at different scopes in a pivot. In this case, it sounds like you're looking for a pretty simple layout, but these principles can be applied if you want to drill in to see a finer granularity.
Using the Table Wizard, group by Nominations on the rows and use the volume on values. (You can also do this without the wizard, but it's a little easier to start with.)
Do not choose to include subtotals if prompted.
The table design should look like this:
If you look at the group properties for the group in this table you will see that it is grouped by Nominations. This means that the results will have one row per distinct Nomination value. And the volume will be summed to that scope.
Here are the results:

I believe my problem has to do with the grouping structure.
This is my original report structure where there are detail rows and then a subtotal row:
I need to move the subtotals to columns Hdr Qty. Ordered, Hdr Qty. Remaining, etc. but because it's in the same groupings as the rest of the data it simply repeats that data although I put them into sum functions. I also need to show the details rows still which will end up duplicating the subtotals but that's what I need.
Delete the "table1_Details_Group" group. Make sure you select "Delete group only" so that it doesn't delete the whole row. You want that row to be grouped by Vendor, not by details. Then the sum function in each row will be able to aggregate the values at the vendor level.
EDIT:
If you still want to see the details, you could specify the scope for the aggregate. Like this:
=Sum(Fields!QTYORDERED.Value, "VENDNAME")
If you're still not getting what you expected, you may want to consider a subquery to get the aggregates at that scope.
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.
I swear this shouldn't be that hard, but it's been a real struggle.
I have a query that returns a site name, an event date, and the count of events. I use it in a very nice chart to show events by day.
I now want a Tablix to show the sum of those count of events by site. That is, ignore the date and just sum the counts.
I know I can write another query to accomplish this, but I'd rather minimize the number of queries in this report. How can I use the existing query to create the Tablix that I want?
in the tablix, create your group/groups that you want to sum by, then add the sum of the field you're summing. If you exlude the date in the groups then it'll just sum by whatever you group by.
I've created a table with a group filter so some values stay hidden.
However, the row that shows the sum() of the above values, still counts the filtered values.
Usually I would apply the filter to the query, but I'm also using this same dataset in other tables on the same report so that's not an option.
Am I missing something here, or is this a flaw in MS Reporting Services?
This appears to be a "feature" of SSRS, apparently because it calculates values in table headers and footers before rendering the detail section of a data table.
One way around this would be to add a derived Boolean column to your dataset (assuming your data source is SQL Server, using a CASE statement or similar) showing whether the row should be excluded from the table where the filter is required.
You can then change your table filter to check the indicator, and use a expression to carry out a conditional sum to aggregate the correct total. Something like
=SUM(Iif(Fields!ExcludeRow.Value = True,0,Fields!ValueToSum.Value))
It's more of a question than answer...
How to resolve this issue if you know whether the row is hidden or not ONLY at the Row Group level?
i.e. if you're filtering on the totals by this Row Group, i.e. you cannot have a field indicating if Row is excluded or not in a dataset.
ex: I have AR Aging report which has totals per months, patients. I need to filter out negative totals per patients (Patient row group), but I have column groups as well - per month, so my dataset cannot be per-patient granularity and therefore, the only place SSRS can decide whether to hide or show the row is on the Row Group level...
I had the same issue but I had too many column totals where to enter the Iif().
I resolved it by removing the filter from the group and putting the filter into the Tablix Properties dialog box (Select Tablix, Right-click the top left corner grey box and choose Tablixc Properties).
