SSRS - different values in exports - reporting-services

is it possible to export other values to Excel than displayed in the report?
For Example: Report Displays Hours (5) -> Export shows Minutes (300)
thank you in advance

This works for SSRS 2012 and Excel 2016. Use an expression in the text box that you want to change.
=IIF(Globals!RenderFormat.Name = "EXCELOPENXML","Minute Value","Hour Value")

Dynamic Page Break on SSRS Report based on Parameter Selection

Currently SSRS Report is grouped by the following in the Row Group. When I export the report to excel it is broken into tabs by that ID. I am now passing a Parameter to the report that if set to false, the exported excel report should return only one tab. After doing a little research created an expression in the PageBreak Disabled Property. Whenever I run the report now no matter if I set the parameter to True or False it only returns a single tab. Can anyone offer any insight? THanks!

.Data File strikes again. Cleared cashe the expression worked.

SSRS and a stuborn Excel Serial Date

Sorry Guys, I need some help doing this for a datefield in SSRS. I have a spreadsheet that I export as an xml file, then use that xml as a datasource for my dataset in SSRS. The field for the date comes through as 42969 instead of a Date 22/08/2017. I am not sure how to convert this in ssrs to a date using an expression. Does anyone have an idea?
You can convert this quiet simply but as the data has come from Excel you need to adjust the date by 2 (Excel and SSRS/VB.NET treat serial dates differently).
The following should work
=DateAdd("d", Fields!MyDateField.Value -2, "1900-01-01")

SSRS chart should look like my excel chart

I am doing an SSRS report which needs to have a chart that looks like this
Excel chart
and so far on my ssrs report I have this
SSRS chart
how could I make my ssrs chart the same on my excel chart?
Thank you in advance
First thing is to put all your data together. You want to compare different years with the same date. You'll need to change your date field to just use the month and day:
=FORMAT(FIELDS!YourDateField.Value, "MM-dd")
For the axis label, use the Day of the Week:
=FORMAT(FIELDS!YourDateField.Value, "dw")
For your markers, go to Series Properties->Markers tab and set Marker Type to Auto to let SSRS assign a different type to each. If each year is a different series, you can assign them individually.
You can right-click on an Axis and go to properties to format them to look more like the Excel version.
There's a bit more differences but mostly formatting.

ssrs 2008 r2 export to csv and excel

In an SSRS 2008 r2, I am going to have some selected colunmns set as invisibile while the ssrs 2008 r2 report is running. However when the report is exported only to excel and csv files, I want those invisible columns to be included in the export. Thus can you tell me and or show me in code how to add the selected invisible columns to only the CSV and excel exports?
If you right click on the column and select 'Column Visibility...' and select 'Show or hide based on an expression' and enter the following code:
=IIF(Globals!RenderFormat.Name = "EXCEL" or Globals!RenderFormat.Name = "CSV",false,true)
This should only display the column when it is exported to Excel or as a CSV.
Also make sure you have the DataElementOutput property set to 'Auto' as if it is set to 'NoOutput' it will not export to .CSV

SSRS 2008 R2 export to Excel leaves row one as blank

In an SSRS 2008 R2 existing report, I want to change the report so the users have the option to hide headers when they export the report to excel. By allowing the users to hide headers when they export the SSRS 2008 report to excel, they can sort and filter the data. This avoids allowing excel to display an error in a popup window saying there are merged cell.
My question is when I hide the headers and export the report to excel, there is a blank line in excel before the data and column headers appear.
Basically row # 1 in cell in blank and data and column headers show up starting in column #2.
Thus can you tell me how to remove the blank row in row #1 when the data is exported to excel?
I believe I have been able to duplicate your issue. Be sure that there is no space between your table and the report header. I find that setting the location property of the tablix to 0,0 is the best way to ensure that there is no space there. By removing the space, you should get your tablix headers as the first row in excel.
Here's an article I wrote giving screen shots and step-by-step instructions.

Use render format in an expression , to toggle the visiblity of the text box so the header appears empty
=iif(Globals!RenderFormat.Name = "EXCEL" , true, false
Note the EXCEL should be in caps for Excel 2003 (xls) and EXCELOPENXML for Excel 2007-2010 (xlsx) if using SQl 2012
There could be another reason for the blank first row:
The existence of a page header in the report.
Solution: right-click on the grey area under the report and choose "Remove Page Header"
When exporting to Excel, the first row shows the headers (if existing)
Changing the tablix location to 0cm, 0cm , will fix the problem.
