I am creating a report using SSRS which contains pages separated by individual account holders. Each page represents one account and I am using a textbox label in the header to display the name of the account; however, I am having trouble getting the textbox label to show different name as I navigate through pages.
So for example, on page 1 the account label in the header would show Account A, and on page 2 it should show Account B. However, right now it always shows Account A regardless of the page it is on. The expression of the label looks like this : =(Fields!Account_Name.Value)
Do I need to create a grouping or some sort in order to have the account change depending on the grouping of account name? If so how do I go about doing this? Thanks!
You will have to display the group field in the page header.
The expression would be something like this:
=ReportItems!Account_Name.Value

In my SSRS report, I have more than 500 pages. In the header section, I have used an textbox with expression First (Productname), where the productname is one of the column in my report.
How to display the First row productname of each page on that control? Now it will always display the first row productname of first page on all the pages.
You need to use the ReportItems collection. Get the name of the cell that contains the text you want by clicking it and looking at the properties, assuming the name is myColumnCell then the expression in you header cell would be
=First(ReportItems!myColumnCell.Value)
Look here for more details if required.

I am working on ssrs can someone tell me How to display group by(department) value outside the table in ssrs when page break is set on groups ?
Actually i want to show the department name on top of S.no,Computer etc row which is set to Repeat on new Page:
in image i want to display PROJECT MANAGEMENT on top of table and that name should be changed accordingly(department vice) when navigate to next page.
Make sure the department name is in your table somewhere, you can hide it if you don't want to see it in the output. Make a note of the TextBox name by looking at it's properties (let's say it's called DeptName)
Then in the page header, add a textbox and set it's expression to reference the textbox in the main part of the report using it's name (in our case DeptName) like this.
=ReportItems!DeptName.Value
try something like this
Insert your table in List component then set list GROUP BY "Project Management" Column
Set Tablix Use GROUP BY "Project Management" Column
See image below
But I'm not sure Project Management column are repeat on other page
Hope it Help.
I have tabbed my report in SSRS 2012 by having my page breaks based upon grouping classname and it works great. How do I change the tab names when exporting to Excel? I tried having an expression for page name =Fields!classname.Value. In doing so, it makes all 4 of my tabs equal the first page break of Sales Division.
My tabs are based upon the grouping of classname, which in returns gives me the 4 tabs: Sales Division, VRS, ClearCaptions, and IP-relay.
You need to set the PageName of the Tablix Member (group), NOT the PageName of the Tablix itselfs.
If you got the right object, if will say "Tablix Member" (Tablix-Element in German) in the title box of the properties grid. If it's the wrong object, it will say only "table/tablix" (without member).
Also, be advised to set the sort order of the group expression, so the tabs are alphabetically sorted.
If you get the tablix instead of the tablix member, it will put the same tab name in every tab, followed by a (tabNum). That is exactly your current problem.
This solution was not working for me.
I had to add group break page.

I have a report with one group (Office Name) which page breaks between each group - so the data for only one Office can appear on a given page. How do I get that Office Name to appear in the page header?
I tried creating a hidden textbox in the details section of the report which has the Office Name value and then referencing that in the Page Header, but I get the last Office Name value on page 1 and then it is blank on every other page.
Today, at last I found another way to do this.
On the group that you specified the page break, in the properties window, expand the Group section.
See Pagination in Reporting Services (Report Builder and SSRS)
You can set the BreakLocation property in the Tablix Properties,
Rectangle Properties, or Group Properties dialog boxes, but you must
set the Disabled, ResetPageNumber, and PageName properties in the
Report Builder Properties pane.
You should see a PageName field. This field can be set to that of one of the field data values from the dataset used by the tablix.
Once you have set the PageName field, you can add a textbox to the Page Header/Footer and set the expression to use the PageName field. Built-in Globals and Users References (Report Builder and SSRS)
=Globals!PageName
This should then change on each group change, and be visible on each page.
I have realy struggled finding a good solution for this, so if I need to clear up the answer, please feel free to suggest this.
I got it to work and I'll post the answer in case someone else runs across this issue.
For some reason referencing the text box did not work, but when I put a hidden column in the table with the same value, I could then reference that in the Page Header.
I am actually doing this in the footer and it worked! Thanks! Just wanted to add if you have multiple values you are trying to display in the header or footer, you can string them together with a delimiter in the pagename expression like
=Fields!FIELD1.Value + "|" + Fields!FIELD2.Value + "|" + Fields!FIELD3.Value + "|" + Fields!FIELD4.Value
Then you can create new fields (one for each value) and parse out each field like
=(Split(Globals!PageName, "|")).GetValue(0)
=(Split(Globals!PageName, "|")).GetValue(1)
=(Split(Globals!PageName, "|")).GetValue(2)
=(Split(Globals!PageName, "|")).GetValue(3)
This question was very helpful, however I have a list control in my report, and when the report grows over 1 page, data in the header only shows up on the last page of the report.
Apparently, hidden textboxes have to be on every page of the report for header to function properly. How do I do that? The only control I have in the list is a textbox with bunch of text that grows way over 1 page.
Although SSRS does not allow us to use DataSet fields in page headers, it allows us to refer to report items. So we could place a textbox (that takes its value from a DataSet field) anywhere in our report's body and set its Hidden property to true.
Then, we could easily refer to that textbox in the page header with an expression like: =ReportItems!TextBox1.Value and we are done. Note that the textbox that is being referred should be present on every page, or otherwise the header will print an empty value.

All I needed to do is to use Report Parameters with queried values from my dataset; and then reference =Parameters!Name.Value in the textbox in the header of the report.
Select Report Parameters, Add new parameter and check hidden, allow null and allow blank value.
If you are retrieving the values from database:
Under Available Values:
check "from query" radio button and provide dataset,value field and label fields.
Under Default Values:
check "from query" radio button and provide dataset,value fields.
Now provide the value for text box in the footer/header as =Parameters!Footer.Value (Footer is the parameter name).
the hidden text boxes can be placed within a rectangle that was a repeatwith property set to be your list item.
