I am trying to repeat the table data for showing 2 list based on in-out time. So I have copy-paste the table and applied filter function based on in-out time to single dataset. I can view two table in report output as it is but when exporting to PDF table gets overlapped on each other. Also filter seems to get applied to only one table.
How we can tackle PDF export issue?
What are best way to repeat table using single dataset?
Insert a list into the report.
If you can group the row group on something that will generate two rows then brilliant - you will only need one tablix in the list.
If that is not possible, group the row group on 1. Then insert a new row group adjacent below, also grouped on 1. On the new row that has appeared in the list, insert a new rectangle. Now you can past a copy of the tablix into each rectangle, and page break on the row groups instead of the tables.
The groups & rectangles will prevent overlapping when exporting to PDF.

SSRS report needs to have aggregate and grouping from two data sets. I have managed to get this working using the lookup funcion. Looks like it is now duplicating the rows when I only want it to show the top row.
I have two groups. Active and Stanby. Each has different values in it but the same value per row.
I tried to hide duplicates under properties, but that now keeps the first row and the border of all other rows with an empty field inside of it.
The hide visibility doesnt seem to work - i think it might be because of the grouping.
Can someone help?

I am trying to create a SSRS report that will have multiple items such as charts and tablix on that will group by Customer.
For example we have 3 different charts which use different data sets but we want to show a group of charts by customer like Customer A has X amount of incidents, X amount of Problems and X amount of Service Request (but we want them displayed in charts)
I tried a list grouping but it keeps amending the whole group of charts data sets.
You have to combine a few different features to get this functionality.
First of all, when you have multiple elements such as charts, you'll want to insert a rectangle first and then drag the charts into it. This keeps their layout consistent.
Next, you will need to insert a Table. Delete the header row and two of the columns so you're left with just a single cell and the "Details" group. Set this to be grouped by customer ID. Also set it to page break between instances of the group.
Finally, drag the entire rectangle into this table cell. Now the entire contents of the rectangle will repeat with a separate customer on each page. The table inherently filters all the objects inside it to that customer.
I am generating a table in SSRS based on the selection made by the user on two filters: Filter1 and Filter2 (say). The table so displayed has 10 columns and I wish to add filter option listing all available values for that column for all 10 columns.
Basically, I am trying to replicate the Excel functionality of filtering down data on each and every column.
Please note that I tried creating a new data set and a parameter taking all distinct values for a particular variable. However, I am still not able to get the desired results by filter the tablix on that parameter
Is there a way I can do that?
You'd need to make a new dataset that is a smaller version of your main dataset. It would need to return all potential values for the column(s) you want to filter in a single column to be used in a parameter.
Without seeing the design of the report or the dataset itself it's quite hard to be more specific.
I have around 10 tables in an ssrs report and I need to add a group which includes them all. Is there a way to do that in ssrs?
I know how to create column and row groups within a single tablix, but I am not able to do the same for more than one tablix.
I created a table with a single cell, then inserted a rectangle in it and then copy/pasted all the tables in there. Then added a row group and it works!!
I am creating a report in SSRS. I have a table showing the date and time the report was generated, it's a single column table with one expression =Now() and is not linked to any datasets.
The trouble I am having is that it returns 77 rows all with the exact same date. My main dataset returns 77 rows in a different table but that table is not linked to this one in any way.
How can I stop it from returning so many rows? The reason I'm using a table and not a text box is because I want it to have the same look and feel as other data presented in my report i.e. Header Row and Data Presented underneath. There are a few tables that use the same approach and all of them are returning duplicate rows. As you can see from the image below, I just need the first row from each table.
EDIT: Looks like SSRS automatically references a dataset when I insert a new table. When I change the table properties dataset to none it returns an error. Is there a way around this? I don't want data from any dataset, just want to use an simple expression =now()
As you've seen, a Tablix requires a DataSet, and when you only have one DataSet in a report it will link to this DataSet automatically in some circumstances.
You've mentioned you don't want to use Textboxes, but this does seem like the easiest option.
If you're set on using a Tablix for ease of formatting, to prevent any repeating rows just delete the Details group that gets set up by default when you create a Table through the designer:
This leaves a table with one header row only - you can add more header rows as required:
The result is a table that will only display the header rows once, i.e. no repeating rows.
You can add Summary data or individual fields from the DataSet to these header rows; if no aggregation is specified it will just take the first row by default.
