I have a problem with SSRS 2012
I have to split this string 201706 (that means year and month) in two columns to show only month (06) and year (2017).
Can someone help me?
**i return this column by a dataset that i can't modify
If the field IS a string then you can use LEFT and MID for this.
Just set the expression for the columns to be
=LEFT(Fields!myFieldName.Value, 4)
this just gets the left 4 characters and
=MID(Fields!myFieldName.Value, 5,2)
this just gets the part of the string that starts at position 5 and is 2 characters long.
If you field is not a string then you can convert it to a sting first using CStr so replace Fields!myFieldName.Value with CStr(Fields!myFieldName.Value)

I am trying to find max invoice:
SELECT IFNULL(MAX(SUBSTRING_INDEX(invoice,'I', -1)) + 1, 1) AS invoice
FROM sales
SQL Fiddle
When I run this SQL query, it can not count more than 10.
invoice
20221026P1I1
20221026P1I2
20221026P1I3
20221026P1I4
20221026P1I5
20221026P1I6
20221026P1I7
20221026P1I8
20221026P1I9
20221026P1I10
20221026P1I11
20221026P1I12
I am trying to find max invoice 12 + 1 = 13
Your use of SUBSTRING_INDEX() is correct, however you should cast the string value to a bona fide integer:
SELECT COALESCE(MAX(CAST(SUBSTRING_INDEX(invoice, 'I', -1) AS UNSIGNED)), 1) AS invoice
FROM sales;
The problem with trying to find the max of the text substrings themselves is that text numbers sort lexicographically, e.g.
1
10
11
2
23
But this isn't the behavior you want, you want the numeric maximum. Hence we should cast these substrings and then compare.
Side note: You could have avoided this problem entirely by maintaining a pure numeric invoice number column. You may want to change your table design to include such a column.
I have a dataset, returned from a SQL query, that has the following data:
TYPE_CODE
YEAR
The data set spans the years 2014 through 2019. The TYPE_CODE has 6 different values.
How do I setup an SSRS matrix to provide the following layout and data:
So far I have a matrix setup (see the pic below) that has a row group (TYPE_CODE1) for the TYPE_CODE data, and two column groups (YEAR_PREV and YEAR_CURRENT) that are filtered as follows:
- The second column in the matrix is the YEAR_PREV group, and is filtered to not show 2019 data (YEAR <> 2019)
- The 4th column in the matrix is the YEAR_CURRENT group, and is filtered to only show 2019 data (YEAR = 2019)
This method correctly splits my data, with the green highlighted columns in the pic below representing what is correct:
What is not correct is the average column, as I cannot figure out how to setup that column to only average the columns to the left (the previous years - 2015-2018) and not include the column to the right (2019).
I have tried several different expressions to no avail, primarily trying to limit the count function to only the YEAR_PREV group, like so:
=count(Fields!TYPE_CODE.Value, "PREV_YEAR")/4
This throws an error telling me that something along the lines of "group cannot be used in aggregate function...".
How do I calculate the average column correctly?
You need to have 2 column groups with filters applied, first one where year equals 2015-2018 and the second one equals only 2019.
In between each of these columns you need insert your average column that will reflect years 2015-2018.
I'm stuck at this point, I get my data from a stored procedure with the date format as MM/YY, but SSRS sorted my date in a wrong way: 01/2019, 02/2019,..., 12/2019;01/2018, 02/2018,...
So I'd like to do to have my data in the right order.
Since your date is converted to MM/YYYY format, the data is text and not numerical so it's sorted one character at a time rather than by the value.
If you want to sort by year and then by month, you would need a separate SORT option for each that parses the text into separate month and year values.
=RIGHT(Fields!DOB.Value, 4)
This gets the 4 characters from the right of the text which is the year in the data.
=LEFT(Fields!DOB.Value, 2)
LEFT , 2 gets the first two characters of the string - the month in the field.
Create a new column in the query where you convert the string date to a date data-type and sort on that e.g.
select
convert(date, '01/'+ MyDateStringColumn) MyDateColumn
from MyTable
order by MyDateColumn
I have a SSRS 2008 report that generated columns of the months along with other data based on year halves. I have the tablix column group and sort set for [Mon] and the first half of the year generated just fine but when I run the report for the second half it does not display in order :
MonthNumber 10 11 12 7 8 9
MonthName October Movember December July August September
The SQL code that is used generated the following rows which appear in order of month number.
Mon
7
8
9
10
11
12
I would say that Mon is being treated as a string value, for whatever reason, i.e. from the query or in the dataset definition, as you can see that in your example the columns are being sorted as strings, i.e. 10 will be before 7 when sorted as text and not numeric values.
You have two options:
First is to sort by an expression like: =CInt(Fields!Mon.Value), i.e. explicitly sorting as an integer, which solve the issue if Mon is being treated as text.
The other option is to make sure that Mon is being treated as an integer at the dataset level - either way should be fine.
I am having flat file which contain bad date like [02/02/0200].I want export data into sql table.I am using Condition split or derived column transformation for date column.
I want that correct date goes to main table and errors rows go to error table.
Could you please let me know what expression i have to used for date column .
Thanks,

When you convert your date [02/02/0200] it's gonna be 200 Year 02 Month 02 Day.
So you need to eliminate nonsenses dates. This gonna eliminate dates which are lower than 2000 Years.
(DT_DATE)([YourDate]) > (DT_DATE)(2000 - 01 - 01)
OK so new derived column statement (bccPostDate - data type is "unicode string" ) :
((DT_I4)(SUBSTRING(bccPostDate,1,2))) > 12 || ((DT_I4)(SUBSTRING(bccPostDate,4,2))) > 31 || ((DT_I4)(SUBSTRING(bccPostDate,7,4))) < 1900 ? "" : bccPostDate
IS working I have tried with Years and this statement returning column with "Unicode string" data type.
