I have learned to create maps from the dataset in SSRS but I do not see how to modify the map based on the parameter values.
For instance, I load the sql which contains 100 routes. The parameter would limit the user to view the information on one route. But the map does not seem to be affected by the parameter; it shows the entire dataset no mater the parameter.
How to force the map to also be limited by the parameter?
Have you either a) Added a filter to the dataset, or b) added a WHERE clause in your data set with the route set to the report parameter?
Example:
SELECT route
FROM route_table
WHERE route = #routeparameter

The report works for just 1 choice, but when I add more than one, it does not return anything ( no errors, just nothing in the report).
My SQL statement includes the parameter #Region
where Region_Name IN (#Region)
In the Region parameter's properties, I set to allow multiple values.
in the dataset filter's properties:
Expression: =Fields!Region.Value
Operator: IN
Value: =Parameters!Region.Value(0)
*EDIT
I removed the dataset filter as suggested.
Below are the properties for the parameter.
The available values come from another data set that is a distinct list of regions.
Your edit makes a lot more sense. To use multivalue parameters you just need to reference the parameter in the usual way, except use in within the SQL:
select cols
from table
where specificcol in #Region
And then don't have a dataset filter set, just make sure there is a reference to the Region parameter in the Parameters property page. The filtering of the data is handled by the inclusion of the parameter in the SQL, so you don't need to also have a filter on the SSRS dataset.
Instead of using a parameter to go back and forth between the stored procedure and the report, I created the parameter and used it in the tablix properties.
Expression: =Fields!Region.Value
Operator: IN
Value: =Parameters!Region.Value
When you first create the value, it adds a (0) to the end of the expression. Remove that and it works as expected.
Thank you #iamdave for the help!
EDIT:
I came back to this and was able to filter using the parameter and stored procedure.
I followed a link from a question to here: http://www.codeulike.com/2012/03/ssrs-multi-value-parameters-with-less.html
I created a dataset parameter and removed the one from the tablix properties. Then created the function provided and it worked. I did not mess with the "ALL" features in the post.
Thanks for all the tips. Brent
I'm trying with a static chart in spagobi server and now I need to create a dynamic chart.
How can I set a date parameter for a chart in spagobi server?
1- First of all, edit your Dataset to make it dynamic, add a filter (with you date parameter) in you where statement or whatever..
2- Then, you have to create a LOV (list of value), then create an Analytical driver which take his values from the LOV you already create and finally edit you chart document to add a new parameter which will be linked to the just created Analytical driver.
3- The name of your parameter in your Dataset must have the same name as the url in the parameter you define in your chart document.
Hope this steps will help you
I have created two bind date parameters in oracle reports on top of that I have created 3 more general parameters but I am unable to map those parameters to the query.
Please help me how to map the parameters(other than bind parameters).
as i have understood your question is that you want to know how to include the parameters you have made into the query. for this just write as below ..suppose your parameter name is p_from_date. now u want to query the value where there the value is equal to your parameter. then it could be written as
where effective_date=:p_from_date.
I am trying to pass multiple values for a parameter in ssrs which is delimited by ','.Limiting the result data set using where condition using split function in stored proc, this gives me results of my report data set
WHERE YEAR(a.month_start_date)IN (SELECT Value FROM dbo.FnSplit(#year,','))
--AND datename(month,month_start_date) IN (SELECT Value FROM dbo.FnSplit(#month,','))
AND b1.branch_cd IN (SELECT Value FROM dbo.FnSplit(#branch,','))
I created a data set to get available values for year filter
Configured the parameter to get available values from my filter data set and also checked option to "Allow multiple values"
Select distinct year(month_start_date) as Year
From [DB].[dbo].[table]
Then I also limited my report data set to accept parameters with following condition.I configured parameter to accept the following value
=Join(Parameters!year.Value,",")
I pass in values in url
http://<servername>/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?<reportname>rs:Command=Render&year=2012,2013,2014
My filter does not select the values passed thru the url. The report only shows me the list of values in drop down but does not select the values parsed thru url
I am not sure if I am missing anything else. Please suggest.
Thanks!
The issue here is that your URL is constructed incorrectly. You are trying to pass througth the years as a single parameter and that isn't how it works. Pass it through as a whole heap of parameters and then let the reporting server put it together and put it into the SQL.
Your URL should look like this (I changed the : to %3a and broke up the year parameter)
http://<servername>/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?<reportname>rs%3aCommand=Render&year=2012&year=2013&year=2014
I hope this helps someone out.
I have a report created in SSRS in client mode, which is run disconnected: I create the data source in code and pass to the report as a DataView. It works ok.
But I need to be able to reference from the project to some objects (variables, whatever) from my application, as follows:
I need some totals that are not calculated based on data in report. e.g. the reports show total sales in a period, with own total, but I need to display a field in report footer - previous month total (actually they are about 10 other "previous" totals).
I need to have some columns show / hide based on some settings in the application (e.g. I have application option : Show Previous month sales)
Any thoughts on how to do this?
Thank you
Q1-> In order to use data in your reports, you need to specify the data inside of a Datasource object. You cannot simply use the variables if that is what your intentions were. So yes, you are doing this the right way. *** Sorry, you could theoretically used Report Parameters for this.
Q2-> This is the real reason to use Report Parameters. You can pass parameters to the report to do exactly this. If the HideColumn parameter (for example) is set to true, you could hide all the columns that need to be hidden.

For question 1 - the data - the easiest approach would be to create a DataTable in memory and add it as another dataset OR to add fields for your original dataview that contain these values.
Question 2 - To hide or show the columns based on settings make the column visibility an expression based on the value of a parameter, in your code behind set the parameter value to your application setting.
