I have setup a Matrix and use "Add total" to create a new column to show the total number in SSRS. Then I created another new column on the right with expression Replace the number in Add Total column with Text. However, when I use Count expression to count this new text column contain "Passed" and "Not Passed", it shows the total count without filtering. I have tried different expression, it shows either the total count or 0. I am getting confuse if I should be using =Count(Fields!xxx.Value = "Passed") OR =Count(Parameters!xxx.value = "Passed" ?
I have looked thru different example on this website but didn't seem to find a resolution, or it's the Matrix is created incorrectly ? Hope someone can provide some help. Million thanks.

I am new to SSRS and have a SUM(IIF question.
My data set contains four columns: Date, GroupID, PlanPaid, and NetworkIndicator.
Here is an example of the data set:
I am trying to SUM the [PlanPaid] amount when [NetworkIndicator] = "In Network".
However, I need this amount broken up by the [Date]. I tried accomplishing this by creating the expression:
=Sum(IIf(Fields!NetworkIndicator.Value = "In Network"
, Fields!PlanPaid.Value
, Nothing)
, "Claims_Rolling12")
But this expression returns the same amount (total) across all [Dates]. How do I break it up so that it is grouped by the correct [Date]?
Here is a photo of my Tablix and my current Groups: [Tablix and Groups]
And here is a photo of the output: [Output]
You haven't said where you want this sum to appear, so the answer here might not work. If it doesn't then edit your question to show what you expect the output to look like based on your sample data.
I'm assuming here that you want to add a new column to the report that shows "In Network total" by date.
The easiest way to do this is to add a row group that groups by date, then within this group you can use a simple expression, like the one you tried, but without specifying the scope.
=SUM(IIF(Fields!NetworkIndicator.Value = "In Network", Fields!PaidPlan.Value, Nothing))
This expression will only sum rows that are within the current scope, in this case the scope will be the row group you created to group by dates.
As IO said, if this is not helpful, edit your question and show what you expect your end result to look like, based on the sample data you supplied and then I can look at it again.
This should be easy, but I am stuck.
I have a table listing some figures about Qualifications - to achieve which a dataset that is essentially a row per Student is being grouped on Qualification with a Parent Grouping on "Measure" (which is just a bucket of qualifications).
One of the columns is trying to work out the number of students (well, more properly the number of students with a value in a particular field, weighted by another field) in each Measure/Qualification. In the screenshot below, it's the "Pred. Avg" column on the right hand side.
So for the Qualification Row Grouping, that column is calculated by:
=CountDistinct(Iif(IsNothing(Fields!AVG_PTS.Value) = False, Fields!Learner_ID.Value, Nothing), "Qual") * Lookup(Fields!Qual_Code.Value, Fields!Qual_Code.Value, Fields!size.Value, "DS_KS5Nationals_LKP")
This works fine - the values of 35 and 11.5 in that rightmost column are correct for those rows. What the top row should be doing is simply adding up the values in the other rows to give me the number of students in this Measure, in this case to give 46.5. To do that the expression I am using is:
=Sum(CountDistinct(Iif(IsNothing(Fields!AVG_PTS.Value) = False, Fields!Learner_ID.Value, Nothing), "Qual") * Lookup(Fields!Qual_Code.Value, Fields!Qual_Code.Value, Fields!size.Value, "DS_KS5Nationals_LKP"), "Measure")
However as you can see in the screenshot, this returns 2917 instead.
So my question is; Why doesn't that work, and given that it doesn't work how can I, within a parent group, aggregate the results of aggregates inside a child group?
EDIT:
OK so, I have determined that the following works correctly:
=Sum(CountDistinct(Iif(IsNothing(Fields!AVG_PTS.Value) = False, Fields!Learner_ID.Value, Nothing), "Qual"), "Measure")
The problem there is that the Qual row that returns 11.5 is weighted to 0.5. I.E. it actually returns 23, and the Lookup(Fields!Qual_Code.Value, Fields!Qual_Code.Value, Fields!size.Value, "DS_KS5Nationals_LKP") is for that row returning 0.5 and altering it to 11.5...so the question becomes; "how do I force that ...*Lookup(Fields!Qual_Code.Value, Fields!Qual_Code.Value, Fields!size.Value, "DS_KS5Nationals_LKP") into the "Qual" scope, like the CountDistinct() is already in?
The issue here is that you're trying to aggregate values using that Lookup function which only returns one value. There are a couple ways you could go about doing this. One option would be to use the LookupSet function to get the applicable weightings. An even better option is to combine the data in your dataset so that the weighting is available without using a lookup. That way the function can recalculate an any grouping level without you having to force a scope on it. Also, CountDistinct ignores "Nothing" so you can do without the extra IIf statement. Hope that helps.
i have a stored proc returning inventory amounts between a start and end date.
the QTY field shows on-hand inventory adjustments by date, either IN or OUT.
i have a "run balance" field that needs to show the total QTY each day. if the InOut field is 0, it's QTY in. if it's a 1, its QTY out. the values reflected in In and Out are coded that way.
EXAMPLE. if i start on 4/1/14 with 5216. then 1061 of product is made on 4/1/14 i need the run balance to take 5216 and add 1061 on the next line. the next line should read 6277 instead of 1061. then if some is shipped, take 6277 and subtract, and so on.
i tried the running value on QTY, but it just repeats the QTY. doesn't calculate anything.
=RunningValue(Fields!QTY.Value,Sum,"Details")
i tried to post an image of my report preview, but i don't have the reputation ;-)
any help would be MUCH appreciated.
EDIT: OK, i tried this code block:
= Switch(RunningValue(Iif(Fields!InOut.Value = 0, Fields!QTY.Value,0),Sum,"Details"),
RunningValue(Iif(Fields!InOut.Value = "1", Fields!RunBalance.Value - Fields!QTY.Value,0),Sum,"Details"))
and i am getting a 0 on the sum fields, and #Error on the subtraction fields. but, i think this is more the direction i need to go (i hope)....but i am still not getting it.
There are a couple of things to look at here.
First, you specify the Scope of "Details" in your RunningValue expression... By default this group will have no grouping value, i.e. each row in the dataset will be in its own group. Which means the RunningValue will only ever be applied to one row only. Change the Scope to "MyDataset" or Nothing, whatever is appropriate.
Secondly, you need to consider how the InOut field affects the RunningValue.
I have created a simple Dataset:
And a simple table:
The Balance expression is:
=RunningValue(IIf(Fields!InOut.Value = 0, Fields!QTY.Value, Fields!QTY.Value * -1)
, Sum
, Nothing)
You can see this changes the Scope from your original statement, and also applies a multiplier to QTY based on InOut.
Works OK for my sample data:
I'm working on a rather complex report in Sql Server Reporting Services. My SP returns a dynamic number of columns each of which are dynamically named.
Basically think of a time keeping application. Each column that is dynamic represents a time bucket that time was charged to for that team. If no time was charged to that bucket for the period of time the report covers it doesn't show. Each bucket has its own identifier which i need to be the column headers.
I have an SP that returns this all. It does it by doing a bit of dynamic SQL with an exec statement (ugly i know but I'm on SQL 2000 so a PIVOT option wouldn't work)
I can have an indefinite number of buckets and any or all might show.
I found this - http://www.codeproject.com/KB/reporting-services/DynamicReport.aspx - which is helpful but in the example he has a finite number of columns and he just hides or shows them according to which ones have values. In my case i have a variable number of columns so somehow i need the report to add columns.
Any thoughts?
As long as you know a maximum number of columns, it's possible to do this after a fashion.
First, name the columns with a result from your query, so you can either pass it in to the query or derive it there. Second, just build out the report as if it had the maximum number of columns, and hide them if they are empty.
For example, I had to build a report that would report monthly sales numbers for up to a year, but the months weren't necessarily starting in January. I passed back the month name in one column, followed by the numbers for my report. On the .rdl, I built out 12 sets of columns, one for each possible month, and just used an expression to hide the column if it were empty. The result is the report appears to expand out to the number of columns needed.
Of course, it's not really dynamic in the sense that it can expand out as far as you need without knowing the upper bound.
This can be done. I did this and it works fine.
You don't have to know the maximum number of columns or show and hide columns in my approach. Use a matrix and modify your sp to return dynamic data to the structure mentioned in this blog post http://sonalimendis.blogspot.com/2011/07/dynamic-column-rdls.html
Build 2 related Datasets, first one for the report content, and the second one for the list of its column labels.
The Dataset of the report content must have a fixed number of columns and name. You can allocate some maximum number of columns.
In this example I have the first 2 columns as fixed, or always visible, and a maximum of 4 columns to be displayed by choice through a multivalued parameter, or depends on the query conditions. And as usual, we may have a total as well. So, it may look like this:
Fixed01, Fixed02, Dyna01, Dyna02, Dyna03, Dyna04, Total
The second Dataset with its values will look like this:
Name Label
---- -----
Dyna01 Label01
Dyna02 Label02
Dyna03 Label03
I have omitted the 4th Label to demonstrate that not all columns are being used by a certain query condition. Remember that both Datasets are meant to be related to the same query.
Now create a parameter named, say, #columns; populate its Available Values and Default Values with the second Dataset.
For each of those 4 dynamic columns, set the column visibility with the following expression:
=IIf(InStr(join(Parameters!columns.Value,","),"Dyna01"),false,true)
And for each of their column header Text Boxes, use the following expression:
=Lookup("Dyna01", Fields!Name.Value, Fields!Label.Value, "dsColumns")
As for the Total, here is the expression for its visibility:
= IIf(InStr(join(Parameters!columns.Value, ","), "Dyna01"), false, true)
AndAlso IIf(InStr(join(Parameters!columns.Value, ","), "Dyna02"), false, true)
AndAlso IIf(InStr(join(Parameters!columns.Value, ","), "Dyna03"), false, true)
AndAlso IIf(InStr(join(Parameters!columns.Value, ","), "Dyna04"), false, true)
And here is for its values:
= IIf(InStr(join(Parameters!columns.Value, ","), "Dyna01"), Fields!C01.Value, 0)
+ IIf(InStr(join(Parameters!columns.Value, ","), "Dyna02"), Fields!C02.Value, 0)
+ IIf(InStr(join(Parameters!columns.Value, ","), "Dyna03"), Fields!C03.Value, 0)
+ IIf(InStr(join(Parameters!columns.Value, ","), "Dyna04"), Fields!C04.Value, 0)
That's all, hope it helps.
Bonus, that second Dataset, dsColumns, can also hold other column attributes, such as: color, width, fonts, etc.
I think the best way to do it is add all the columns in your table and edit the visibility property of it with the help of arguments that you get from your SP..this will solve the purpose of dynamic column but when viewing the report you will get a lot of white-space which you can solve with SSRS - Keep a table the same width when hiding columns dynamically? and your report will be ready
I've had the need to do this in the past and the conclusion I came to is "you can't", however I'm not positive about that. If you find a solution, I'd love to hear about it.
An issue that comes to mind is that you need to define the report using the names of the columns that you're going to get back from the stored proc, and if you don't know those names or how many there are, how can you define the report?
The only idea I had on how to do this is to dynamically create the report definition (.rdl file) via C#, but at the time, I wasn't able to find an MS API for doing so, and I doubt one exists now. I found an open source one, but I didn't pursue that route.
