How do I get Page Number in Body Section of RDLC report. Globals!PageNumber can be used only inside either Report Header or Footer. What if I put Row number to my dataset and get the record number.
Limiting the number of records per page and do the visibility calculation based on the records number is the best solution so far that I've heard of.
Can anyone educate me on this logic?
Or is there any other workaround for this?
P.S:
Other so-called solution like using Custom code is not giving you the correct page number. It will always show 1.
There isn't really an easier way to get the page number in the body. I think working with the dataset row count is the only reliable way.
What I have here is a short SQL statement to get Project Status information:
SELECT * FROM PROJ_STATUS
So I'll add the row number as a field, and also divide it by the number of records I want per page and add 1 (giving me the page number of each row)
SELECT * , ((DENSE_RANK() OVER(ORDER BY PRS_ID) -1) / 3 ) +1 AS [CountRow] FROM PROJ_STATUS
Now in my report I've got a table showing the status names and if they are active or not... I'll also add the page number as a column.
Next put a list in the report and put the table inside it.
Then click the top left square corner on the list and in the properties window set the dataset to the one you are using.
Then right click on the row group in the list and set the grouping to the page number column.
And put page breaks in between instances.
And there you go!
Reason why the -1 for #4Star. See that without the -1 the 3rd row is on the second page.
If your dataset is a row per whatever you want to get page numbers for, then
=RowNumber("DataSet1")
will work.
This is the same as using
row_number() over (order by (select null))
as it gives you an arbitrary ordering for row numbers.

I have a report that lists parts required for a job, and then within each part it has rows that show locations and quantities of parts on-hand. The main list has a header (part number, description, quantity) which is only shown once at the top because it is not within the grouping. However, the second header (on-hand quantity, location) is within the grouping so it repeats. I would like it to only show once.
I have tried using the hide duplicates property for the header text boxes, but this still leaves blank rows. I have also tried setting the row visibility using a comparison between ReportItem!lblOnHand.Value and Previous(ReportItem!lblOnHand.Value) but this gives me an aggregate error.
This is what the report is displaying now:
You need to set the row visibility rather than the individual text boxes. Right-click the row header to access the setting..
You should (untested) be able to use the same logic as you have now. If this does not work then you will need to test if the group is the first group and use that in the expression, something like...
=Fields!Partnumber.Value <> FIRST(Fields!Partnumber.Value, "myGroupOrDatasetNameHere")
The above would hide thew row if the part number in the current context is not the same as the first part number in the group or dataset name specified.
I have created an SSRS table element where we have multiple grouped items like below generated in a Portrait mode.
Problem:
Whenever there are many items in a single group, some items in the group get spilled over to the next page. That is, a page break is applied.
Example,
If there are 3 groups in a table, and 2nd group contains 50 items, 30 are displayed on the first page, page breaks and then the remaining 20 are displayed on the second page and so on until all the remaining groups are displayed. This is a normal scenario which happens by default.
Expected Solution:
What is expected is, if the data region of any of the group spills over to the next page, then the whole group along with the group header needs to be shifted to the next page. The idea is to have the whole data region of the group stay together.
This is like a smart table (group split).
This is dynamic in nature in the sense, where if for a group with less rows, it fits and stays together on a single page, then page break doesn't happen.
I tried multiple options like below but none of them worked.
- Change the Keep Together flag of the Grouped rows and the Data Region to True.
- Add a page break after each row group using the Group properties.
Can someone please let me know if there is at all a way to achieve the smart page break like the one expected above?
You can't do that but there are two ways that you can do.
You can remove paging of SSRS report. to remove Paging by opening property window of report and set InteractiveSize's Height value to 0. it will remove paging of the report
You can repeat your Group header if there to another page as well so that user have idea about this data belongs to which group.
I have a purchase order form in SSRS. It's grouped on the Purchase Order number. There are four rows in the group footer for totals.
Is there a way to keep all rows in the footer together? That is, if all of them won't fit on the page, that all of them will be printed on the next page.
You have two ways of attempting to accomplish this. Using the KeepTogether property for the selected rows or the entire group
Or when SSRS inevitably doesn't do what you want it to do, you can do the ole Rectangle and Textbox trick. Insert a row above the subtotal that is also a group footer. Then insert a rectangle. Once you do this, you can insert a bunch of text boxes and move them freely around and structure them in the same way you had them formatted the 4 separate rows. It would look something like the below. With this way SSRS couldn't split the row onto multiple pages because its all in the same row. For insurance purposes check the KeepTogether box for this row as well.
How would I set a maximum lines to display in a BO 4 report? On each page, I'd like to show 20 account numbers in column 1 with item counts in the next columns. There are some good discussions on limiting the rows retrieved in a query (e.g., Limit number of result or rows returned in BO using WebI). Some suggestions include using sections with RowIndex()/20 to limit the lines to 20, so I tried adding a variable =Floor(RowIndex()/20). However, the lines in my report contain aggregated variables, and the row index counts all records retrieved. Thoughts?
One option:
Add a column on the far left of the block. Use the following formula:
=Floor(RunningCount([Account Number])/10)
(assuming, of course, that your dimension is named [Account Number])
Create a break on this column. (Report Element -> Table Layout -> Break -> Add Break). Go back to the same menu and click Manage Breaks. Click the "Start on a new page" checkbox.
This will create a block with a maximum of 20 rows per page. Unfortunately, there's no direct way to hide a column in WebI, so you'd be stuck with this ugly column. What you can do, however, is remove all borders, change the font to white-on-white, and reduce its width as much as possible.
Is it possible to display dynamic number of tablix(es) in a report?
That is, if we do not know the number of tables/tablixes to be displayed in advance.
The requirement is that all the output tables will have exact same structure (row and column lables, groupings, etc.).
If you are using data from a single data source, you could achieve this result by using a single tablix, having the highest grouping on the item(s) you want to use to break up the tablix and including a page break as part of that grouping.
For now, I found a way to solve it. Created a static row within the top group and set set its RepeatOnNewPaAge=true. Remove the borders, so that it looks like a separate text above the table.
This way, it prints the latest group info at the top (because it is part of the group) and also gets displayed on every page, because it is statc. Cool huh? :-)
