I have an SSRS report with cascading parameters. I'd like the parameters to cascade down vertically:
Division
State
Office Manager
Facility
The other parameters do not cascade. Although I have the parameters cascading, because of the layout in SSRS they are not automatically cascading by default.
From the screenshot that I attached you can see that Office Manager and Facility are not populating by default. This is because the location of the Privileging Status parameter forces the user to select it before it continues down to Office Manager and Facility.
If I try to rearrange the order of parameters in the Parameters screen, it messes up the cascading order. To get all 4 cascading parameters to cascade by default they need to be ordered as: cat, state, officemngrname, entity.
Does anyone know how to get this to properly cascade vertically? I'm using SSRS 2016.

I want to produce high level reports of aggerated data with date parameters. I would like users to be able to click on a figure to open a table report of all those in the aggerated figure.
I have heard various terms (click through, drill through, linked report) I think what I want to achieve is a 'drill trough' report.
I have created a parent and child report using the same dataset. The child report is a table with all records.
The parent report has the data aggerated in various ways i.e. COUNT(CASE_ID). The parent report has two date parameters (date_from and date_to).
I am not sure what I need to pass through to the second report to correctly filter the records.
I have tried to pass through the dates in the parent parameter to a set of hidden parameters on the child report but this gives me the error "The 'Date_to' parameter is missing a value"
I have tried to pass through the CASE_ID however the filter insists on aggerating so I can only get FIRST(CASE_ID) or LAST(CASE_ID)

I have an SSRS report that requires several parameters that cascade from each other. So Dropdown list B is generated when dropdown list A value is chosen. When new values come into the report it breaks an existing user's subscription's when the report causes new values to populate in one of the dropdowns. The user is subscribed with pre-chosen values they want. How can I fix this?
This error is pretty self-explanatory. Look at the Default Values for the parameter it's referring to. You either:
A. Specified the wrong data-type.
OR
B. You specified a value that wasn't in the Available Values tab. (most likely)
I need to create student certificate using SSRS. I created new .rdl file did designed and associated with data source.
It works for single student as expected. But it does not creates report with multiple certificate while my data source returns multiple student details.
I am new for SSRS, please help me out to achieve this.
If you want to generate a certificate for each row of your dataset in the same report, you can do this with a tablix:
Add a Tablix to you your report that lists your dataset data
Drag a Rectangle into one of the Details row cells
Make the cell you dragged the Rectangle into large enough to hold all your
certificate report items
Select all your certificate items and move them into the Rectangle
Update any references to your dataset to not include a 'scope'
ie: Change =sum(Fields!ColName.Value, "Your Dataset") to =sum(Fields!ColName.Value)
Run the report
You should now have a certificate for each row in your dataset.
If you want to export multiple separate certificates, you will need to set up a data driven subscription on your report, that runs it once for each row of a returned dataset. Obviously you will need to adjust your report to be able to receive which student to generate the certificate for as a parameter.
Another way is.. if your data set is returning one row per student, then all you need to do you on your tablix is to add a parent row group.. group on StudentID.. or something unique per record.. go to group properties and add a page break at end of group. This should generate one certificate page per student..
You may need to adjust group headings and footer and things like that appear.. You will figure it out... alternatively.. watch a youtube video on how to do a basic ssrs report.
I have a subreport call StudentSub.rdl. This is linked with DataSet (stored procedure) Sp_GetStudentName(#ClassNo int). This works fine it gives always only one certificate.
Since I wanted to generate class wise certifiacte, in that case I wanted to get muliple report page wise in one PDF file. Followed below steps:
Created new RDL file called StudentReports.rdl
Linked with same data set stored procedure Sp_GetStudentName.
Drag a table from tool box to design body.
Set visibility False for table Header and some columns except one td.
Right clicked in that box (td) and inserted sub report
Right clicked sub report properties selected StudentSub subreport.
In the sub report properties added parameter ClassNo then clicked Ok.
Now When I am previewing this StudentReports by passing class no. I am getting correct number of pages.
Hope this will help others.
Thanks!
I have an ssrs report with multiple cascading paramters, there is a parameter called Items, dataset of this parameter accepts 7 parameters, but I have given default values to these seven parameters in SQL, and handled nulls as well, so it does not needs any single parameters to return results.
I also set this dataset as my parameters default value, now the behavior I want is that when the report loads, it should show data without any filtration, and as user selects values from other seven parameters, it updates itself accordingly.
I can successfully see the desired behavior in visual studio dev environment, but when I deploy same report, in report manager, it does not loads unless I select all seven levels.
I tried deleting report from report manager and deploy again, but same result.
What I could be missing ?
I have a couple of multi-valued parameters in my report created using visual studio reporting services, one filtered against the other.
I want that each time there is any change in my first parameter drop-down list, the values appended in my second parameter drop-down list, when updated, must be auto selected by default.
As of now, I get the desired values in my second parameter drop-down list each time there is any change in my first parameter list. However,in some cases,the appended values in my second parameter list are not selected by default.
Please give suggestions to implement this functionality.
By design, it is not possible for SSRS to re-evaluate the default value(s) for a subsequent parameter unless the selected value is no longer in the valid values list, as can be seen from this issue on Microsoft Connect.
One possible workaround is to ensure that when the higher level parameter's selected value is changed, the selected value is no longer available in the valid values list for the dependant parameter - this technique is discussed in more detail here.
