SSRS Showing a textbox when a second page is displayed - reporting-services

I am creating an Invoice in SSRS and I need to be able to show a textbox with "Balance Brought Forward" in if the amount of lines in the invoice goes over one page limit. So if i restrict the page to 5 lines and there is 10 - 15 lines which will equate to 2 or 3 pages, I need to be able to show this value from the previous pages total on invoice, but only on the 2nd and 3rd pages not on the 1st page. I am able to code in VB if that is the best way to do it, I am just really stuck on how I would achieve this.
Should this be done before generating the report in SQL or can it be achieved in the report it's self?

Can you put that in a header row and hide it on page 1? Or add the textbox and toggle the hidden property based on the number of rows returned.
IIf ((calculate # rows) > 5, False, True)

SSRS report tables mutiple lines not showing

I am doing Microsoft Dynmics D365 report layout. I have a table in my report that need to show the lines from the table in MS Dynamic D365. Which have only 2 lines.
D365 frontend system:
In the report layout, it is only showing the first line and the second line is not showing.
Report layout first line only showing:
I want the 2 lines to be showed in the report. I am not sure if my coding is not right or the row group that I am grouping in the report design. Please help me please. Apperciated.
here is my code in the dp class to get the table lines:
PurchPurchaseOrderTmp.MGAItemLabelName = PurchExtendedMaster.ExtName;
PurchPurchaseOrderTmp.MGAColValue1 = PurchExtended.ColValue1;
PurchPurchaseOrderTmp.MGAColValue2 = PurchExtended.ColValue2;
PurchPurchaseOrderTmp.MGAColValue3 = PurchExtended.ColValue3;
PurchPurchaseOrderTmp.MGAColValue4 = PurchExtended.ColValue4;
PurchPurchaseOrderTmp.MGALabelId = PurchExtended.LabelId;
//PurchPurchaseOrderTmp.MGALabelIdString += int2Str(PurchExtended.LabelVersion);
if (PurchPurchaseOrderTmp.MGAItemLabelName != "") {
PurchPurchaseOrderTmp.MGALabelIdString = strFmt("%1-%2",
PurchExtended.LabelId, int2Str(PurchExtended.LabelVersion));
}
else {
PurchPurchaseOrderTmp.MGALabelIdString = "";
}
Here is my report design row grouping:
Thanks
This is not really an answer at the moment as I can't see enough to be certain but...
Looking at the report design, it 'appears' that you don't have anything in the details row(s). The details group rows have been reduced in height so I'm guessing there is nothing in there.
That means that the text boxes below this must be in a group header or footer which is why they will only appear once.
The best way to get your head round this is to dump all the data from your dataset into a simple flat table, then see what you want repeating.
For exmaple, it looks like Label ID (MGAItemLabelName ?) should only be shown once, so there needs to be a group for that - which it looks like you have.
Then within that label name group, you have two rows of data that you want to show, so these must be at a lower level than their parent group. That might be the details row group, or another row group between the header and details depending on your needs.
The details row group typically contains fields that you want to show every instance of and that does not have any subordinate/child data.

First of Function in SSRS / show first row of each page

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.

SSRS Report Builder 2012 - How to hide list based on field value?

I'm using Report Builder 2012 to create a report. I have inserted multiple text boxes and other controls inside a list box so that I can hide all the controls at once just by hiding the list box. I'm using a SQL Server stored procedure to fetch rows of data. I'm using below expression to hide/show the list box.
=iif(Fields!certificateType.Value = "CT", False, True)
It works fine but it only checks the first row of data. If certificateType field is "CT" in the first row of data, it shows the list box but it doesn't hide the list box back for the next row of data in which certificateType is not "CT". It seems like list box visibility only checks the first row of data and applies it for all the other rows as well. How can i check the visibility of list for all the data rows?
Okay, based on our chat I have updated this solution.
I mocked up some data that looks like this:
certificateType
---------------
AT
BT
CT
DT
ZT
I created a quick and dirty report with a list. In that, I added a rectangle with a textbox in it. I set the dataset for the list to the main dataset (DataSet1 in my case). I set the expression for the textbox to this:
=Fields!certificateType.Value
Image in design mode:
I clicked on the list, and in the Row Groups pane, I right-clicked the Details rows, and chose Group Properties. On the General section, I clicked Add to add a new group expression. Then I chose certificateType from the dropdown.
I moved to the Page Break section of the Group Properties dialog and ticked the Between each instance of a group check box. Click OK.
Now, the report will break for each instance of a certificate type that comes in the dataset. So, if you have ten different cert types in the data, you will get one page for each.
You can't see it in my image below, but there are 5 pages now.
Hope this helps!!

SSRS report total fields

How to show the total of each page in SSRS report. What I exactly mean is if pageNumber = 1 total should be sum of amount on page 1, if pageNumber = 2 total should be sum of amount of page 2 + total from page 1, etc...
.Have you tried using the running value function?
See https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms159136.aspx
You can also use ReportItems![CellName] to enable you to display the value in the report footer if required.
If this does not give what you require and you have a fixed page size eg A4 you can calculate the page totals and Page Numbers as a fields in your data set. This is more powerfull in settings where for example you want to print a set of customer statements in a single print run. Each customer statement would need its own page numbers and totals. Again you can use ReportItems to display these values in the relevant part of the report as they would appear at the detail level of the dataset. In this case you add a hidden field(s) containing the values you require on the detail line and pick them up using ReportItems. You can also force a page break at the end of each Page number group
To repeat the report Header / Footer on each page see this link
http://bhushan.extreme-advice.com/repeat-table-header-on-each-page-in-ssrs/.
To start with go to the footer properties and make sure repeat on first and last page is checked.

SSRS - Changing tab name when exporting to excel

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.
