Hi All I have a ssrs report with 6 tablix and all 6 using the same dataset1, but with tablix filtering for 6 unique service provider, one for each tablix.
The user selects a country from the parameter. And based on which country the user selected: Out of the 6 service provider, some of them may not be available in that country and will display a blank tablix table with only the column headers.
What I want: Is there a way to change the visibility settings so that whichever service provider tablix is empty, they would become invisible?
For example: User selects Canada:
Provider1: Available in Canada, Show Tablix
Provider2: Available in Canada, Show Tablix
Provider3: Not available in Canada results in blank tablix - Turn visibility to hide
Provider4: Not available in Canada results in blank tablix - Turn visibility to hide
Provider5: Available in Canada, Show Tablix
Provider6: Not available in Canada results in blank tablix - Turn visibility to hide
So only Tablixs for Provider 1, 2, and 5 will show on the report.
I am assuming this will use the IIF expression? I just need some guidance on what would be the best way to accomplish this.
Thank you
You can use a similar expression to set Hidden property of a Tablix:
=IIf(CountRows("YourTablixName") = 0, True, False)
The NoRowsMessage property of a Tablix may be useful to your needs. If the filters result in the tablix having no data to use, this will show a message instead of displaying the column/row headers. This can be static or an expression:
="No Provider3 data available for " & Parameters!Country.Value
The Font properties of a tablix (rather than the properties of it's cells) control how the No Rows Message displays.

Can Excel render only the visible row groups on a report?
I have a report [SSRS 2017] that has nested row groups on the Tablix.
The child groups are hidden by default, toggled by a report field. When you run the report, the default view displays just the summary rows.
Folks naturally try to export this to Excel (to work with just the summary rows) and of course When they export to Excel (collapsed or not) they get the grouped child rows:
Is there any way for SSRS to suppress hidden row groups when exporting to Excel (while still having a working toggle on the web version of the report)?
My fallback is to duplicate the report, remove the child row groups altogether, and just link to the "simplified" version of the report for that purpose.
thanks!
I haven't done this before but I have seen the theory for this once.
You would want to add an extra column and use it as the Toggle Item. Then set the visibility for the new column based on whether it's an EXCEL export.
=IIF(Globals!RenderFormat.Name="EXCEL" or Globals!RenderFormat.Name="EXCELOPENXML", True, False)
I haven't seen it work, so I don't know if will work the way you want.
The solution above does not work if you want to hide detail rows shown by drilling down.
For this case there's another way:
Create a boolean parameter to "suppress details" for example ExcelHide.
Create a copy of the tablix you want to hide the details from.
Set visibility parameter of the ORIGINAL tablix to the value of the parameter. This will HIDE this tablix when the parameter is true.
Set visibility parameter of the COPIED tablix to the negated value (not ExcelHide) of the parameter. This will SHOW this tablix when the parameter is false.
On the COPIED tablix, hide all elements you do not want to export to Excel.
When the report is run you set the parameter so you can show the details for regular operation and hide elements to allow successful export to Excel.
Almost there! I achieved this by setting the DataElementOutput property in my Tablix to "NoOutput", then prefixing the following to any fields in the rows I wished to exclude from my CSV export:
=IIf(Globals!RenderFormat.Name="CSV",Nothing,[YourValue])
Hope this helps folk and thanks [#Hannover Fist].
I created a report using Visual Studio.
I have a table with one column that contains total won opportunity per account. If an account has total won opportunity more than zero, I want to link the text to a sub report (account detail report). But if it is zero, then I don't want to link it anywhere. So I create an action for 'Go To Report', and put expression in 'Specify a report' like this :
=IIF(Count(Fields!opportunity_name.Value) > 0, "AccountDetailReport", Nothing)
It works well in Preview section, if I clicked on total won opportunity with value more than 0, it will directed to the subreport. But when I uploaded the report to Dynamics CRM online, and tried to click on total won opportunity, it throws an error says : "Details are not available because subreport is missing".
I guess it because the conditional expression when I specified a report. Because if I changed the Specifiy a Report using only AccountDetailReport (without expression), it works fine
Try creating two placeholders in your tables column, both in the same cell. The value expression will be the same (whatever you currently have in the column) .
You can then set the 1st placeholder to be visible when the total won > 0 and this placeholder can have an action to go to the sub report. The 2nd placeholder can be set to hidden when the total won value > 0 and have no action assigned.
I created a matrix report table with the option to drill down in that matrix with the + sign in both columns and rows.
The user can also click on any text-box in the matrix and it actions to a different report with parameters to view details.
Both tables are 1 report and 1 matrix table in different settings of hide/show groups.
In the right table I sent the number marked red is an example for drill through with parameters sales+mary, and aria1+product 2.
On the left, the drill through always sends with sales-david as parameter because he was first.
How can I drill-through with a parameter that represents the entire group of sales?
You should be able to use InScope("SalesPerson") or simialr to test the scope of the cell you click on. If it's inscope of the detail column group you can pass the actual SalesPerson to the drill down report, if not then pass some arbitrary value (say -1) and have you sub-report ignore SalesPerson if the parameter is -1
InScope("SalesPerson") will return true if the group is expanded or false if it's not.

I have a report showing hours and dollars that are written off. Jobs for this report are classified as NRB (non-billable) and non-NRB (billable). Each job type has its own Tablix in the report and I want to populate each Tablix based on a bit value - IsNRB.
All of the "0" IsNRB rows should populate the top Tablix and the "1" values should populate the bottom Tablix . For the most part this is working. What is happening, however, is that some Programs or Clients will have both NRB and non-NRB jobs, and it appears that as each Tablix works its way through the rows of the report dataset, it will capture and retain the first value for IsNRB and apply that to the entire report.
I have tried logic similar to the following in a number of places/ways:
=IIF(Fields!IsNRB.Value = False, Fields!CustProgram.Value, NOTHING)
The Grouping hierarchy of the report looks like this:
ProgramGroup
ClientGroup
Job/SubJobGroup
Detail is here
I have tried setting evaluative expressions similar to the one above on TablixVisibility, GroupVisibility, RowVisibility, and in the field expression itself. The behavior seems consistent in that the first row for that Program, Client, or Job sets the value of IsNRB for the entire report.
As a concrete example, the first Program, "Cascadia" has three rows where IsNRB = 1/True and two where IsNRB = 0/False, and the latter two rows of data are always misapplied because the value of 1/True is overriding the 0/False valued rows.
What is the proper approach to take that will allow the first Tablix to accept and display rows of data where IsNRB = 0 and the second Tablix to show those with a value of 1? Do I need to abandon the IsNRB bit datatype and just have a distinct dataset for each Tablix? That seems like a klunky way to approach the report.
Filter each table on the IsNRB field. Right click the tablix and select Tablix Properties. Select filter, then then select the field you want to filter against (IsNRB) and the value your want it to be (1).
This will put all records with a 1 for the field in one table, and with a 0 in the other
I need to display some value on textbox which this value will receive from Tablix.
But It's error this messesge
The Value expression for the text box‘TextBoxName’ refers to the report item ‘NameOfTexboxInTablix’.
Report item expressions can only refer to other report items within the same grouping scope or a containing grouping scope.
Letters in the names of report items must use the correct case.
In hidden tablix has a cell named "NameOfTexboxInTablix" which it use expression for getting value like this
=Lookup(Fields!SEQ_NO.Value,"NO_2",Fields!PROCESS_CODE.Value, "PART_PROCESS")
And I have three Textbox (outside tablix) . Three textbox use for display
a value from first row, second row and third rows of dataset.
-Textbox1 will show "PROCESS_CODE" of the first row.
-Textbox2 will show "PROCESS_CODE" of the second row.
-Textbox3 will show "PROCESS_CODE" of the third row.
So I refer to a cell which it' is textbox in tablix. Textbox named "NameOfTexboxInTablix". Textbox1,2 and 3 will refer by this expression
=ReportItems!NameOfTexboxInTablix.Value
But It's error.
How to solved this problem without combind dataset?
I have solved this problem.
My hidden Tablix was made to use a Lookup function.
Sometimes a Tablix will automatically create a grouping in the window below the designer (Row Groups). It is named "Details"
So I have solved this problem by deleting this "Details" Group.
