Good Afternoon,
I have a multivalue parameter where if the last value in the array has the value "Reentry", it should always display the report. However, if the last value in the array is not "Reentry" it should hide the chart because it doesn't apply to the other choice. The choices are Corrections, Reentry and All. I applied the following expression to the visibility option of the target chart.
=IIf((Parameters!Division.Value(Parameters!Division.Count-1)="Reentry"), True, False)
This is showing the report for all cases, even when I select only Corrections which is the value that appears in a textbox where I placed this expression, being the last value in the array.
=Parameters!Division.Value(Parameters!Division.Count-1)
I have tried all kinds of other ways to get this to work and I have been stuck for a day. I think this approach is the easiest but it is always showing the chart, no matter what is selected. Any thoughts? This shouldn't be so difficult...thanks in advance!
Try using this expression:
=IIF(
Array.IndexOf(Parameters!Division.Value,"Reentry")=
Parameters!Division.Count-1,True,False
)
Let me know if this helps.

On one SSRS report, I have a parameter called "Machine". User can select one or several machines in the list.
When only one machine is selected, I want to show a chart.
When several machines are selected, the data shown on the chart makes no sense, so I want to hide the chart.
Do you know how can I detect that user select only one or several machines? Which expression could I use in the "visibility" parameter of the chart?
Thanks in advance.
In the visibility property of the chart, use the expression:
=(Parameters!ParameterName.Count > 1)
This will hide the chart when more than one value is selected.
On the visibility property of your table(right click on the whitespace of the table=> properties=> visibility) add this peice of code
=IIF(Parameters!ParameterName.Count = 1, false, true)
ParameterName being your multiple-value parameter
The following expression to show/hide subreport is not working.
=iif((DateAdd("d", 45, Fields!actualclosingdate.Value) > Today()), True, False)
Any suggestions, alternatives, or advice will be greatly appreciated.
Please try to put the subreport into a rectangle and set the visibility of that rectangle.
Most of the times issue with the SSRS value matching expressions are the data types of the values that creates the problems or undesired result. In your case your actualclosingdate field might be coming as the string so you need to make sure that it is convert back to the Date before adding days to it. For that matter always right your expressions in SSRS using type conversion so your expression can be on safer side.
And I am also assuming that your requirement is,
If the actual closing date +45 days is greater than Today then hide the report and if not then show.
SO Subreport->RightClick->Proprties->Visibility->Show/hide based on expression
=IIF((DateAdd("d", 45,CDate(Fields!actualclosingdate.Value)) > Today()), True, False)
i have been trying to hide/show columns within my tablix based on multi value parameter , but whenever i am plugging in the expression in the column visibility properties it is not showing what i select from the parameter and hide what is not select.
Here is the expression:
=IIF(InStr(JOIN(Parameters!parameter.Value,", "),"value"),false,true)
any help???
If I understand correctly, you want to show the column if you select a value which contains "value". Right?
So the expression should be like below:
=IIF(InStr(JOIN(Parameters!parameter.Value,","),"value")>0,false,true)
I always get this wrong too. I think backwards. It is actually asking for the expression that will hide the column. SO Black_T is correct with his answer.
=IIF(InStr(JOIN(Parameters!Parameter.Value,","),"value")>0,false, true)
so whenever the expression picks up that value in the statement, it will return false, meaning that it should not hide it, and whenever it doesn't find it, well the returned product will also hide it! pretty ingenious!
Thanks and enjoy!
=IIF(InStr(JOIN(Parameters!parameter.Value,","),"value")>0,true,false)
I have a question, want some assistance.
Q) My question is that i have a chart in which analyst assigned for many incidents and some analyst have 1 or two incident assigned. just because of this the bar chart looks ugly some time. So thats why i used a new chart to represent Min incident count. But i want there some creativeness, for which i want there a radio button or OnClick event ( I do not know how to use both these. When report runs by default it`ll show Max incidents count chart and when we used radio button it will show Min incidents count chart, on the same chart area no need of new area or on new page.
Kindly help me or refer me some links and with ideas. As i have searched many blogs but i didn`t get any big achievement.
Below is my Simplified query;
SELECT
Count(IncidentDimvw.Id)
,UserDimvw.FirstName AS Analyst
FROM
IncidentDimvw
FULL JOIN WorkItemDimvw
ON IncidentDimvw.EntityDimKey = WorkItemDimvw.EntityDimKey
JOIN WorkItemAssignedToUserFactvw
ON WorkItemDimvw.WorkItemDimKey = WorkItemAssignedToUserFactvw.WorkItemDimKey
JOIN UserDimvw
ON WorkItemAssignedToUserFactvw.WorkItemAssignedToUser_UserDimKey = UserDimvw.UserDimKey
WHERE
WorkItemAssignedToUserFactvw.DeletedDate IS NULL
GROUP BY
UserDimvw.FirstName
Having (Count(IncidentDimvw.Id) = (#Count))
Having Clause is right or wrong, i donot know.
I used the following expresion in series as you suggested.
=iif(Parameters!Count.Value, Max(Sum(Fields!ID.Value)), Min(Sum(Fields!ID.Value)))
Sample data is as folows;

I can think of a couple of ways to approach this:
Dynamic expressions based on parameter
Say you have a simple DataSet like:
And also a boolean parameter called showMax.
We can create a simple bar graph based on this:
The most important thing to note is that Series value is expression-based:
In the above example the expression is:
=IIf(Parameters!showMax.Value
, Max(Fields!value.Value)
, Min(Fields!value.Value))
i.e. when showMax is true, report the Max values, otherwise report the min values.
In this case I've also updated the Axis title, Chart title, and Custom legend text to be expression-based:
Axis Title: =IIf(Parameters!showMax.Value, "Max", "Min")
Chart Title: =IIf(Parameters!showMax.Value, "Max per group", "Min per group")
Custom legend text: =IIf(Parameters!showMax.Value, "Max value", "Min value")
The chart behaviour changes based on what parameter is selected as required:
Set Visibility based on parameter
Another option is simply to have to charts and hide one depending on parameter selection.
For example, for the Max chart the Hidden property can be set to:
=Not(Parameters!showMax.Value)
Setting this property correctly for each report will mean only one is ever displayed to the user, i.e. it will look dynamic.
Either of these options should work; the first keeps the layout simple in the designer makes the chart more complex, the second makes the layout more complex but keeps the charts simple.
Hopefully one option will work for you.
I'm am having some trouble with conditional formatting in SSRS. I have tried Switch & IIF Statements (below). The report runs but is not returning colors as it I'm hoping it would. I'm trying to highlight dates which are <= today in red, and everything else will be black. Does it matter if this field is a date field? I've seeen other questions on here with the same issues but no resolutions. Was hoping today would be my lucky day to find an answer. Here is what I have tried and thank you in advance for any input.
=Switch( Fields!Decision_Must_Be_Made.Value <= today(), "Red",
Fields!Decision_Must_Be_Made.Value > today(), "Black")
=IIF( Fields!Decision_Must_Be_Made.Value <=today(), "Red", "Black")
Yes, it definitely matters if the field is a Date Time field. If it's a string, then you need to convert it to datetime first. How you do that will depend on the format of the string. But it will be much better if you can stick with a datetime field from the database. (I've seen where some will format a date to a string in the select of the sql query. Don't do that. Format as late as possible: in SSRS, at the text box level.)
If it is a dateTime, break up your formula to find out what's not working as expected and make it more visible, if only for debugging. Put this in the expression of a cell, for example:
=IIF( Fields!Decision_Must_Be_Made.Value <=today(), "Old", "New")
Edited to add information on where the color formula should be added:
Sounds like you don't have the IIF specifying the color in the right place. There are a few different places you could specify this: it needs to be in the properties of either the textbox or the placeholder. The value for these things should simply be your date field (=Fields.Decision_Must_Be_Made.Value) but the font color needs to be specified separately. One place to do this is in the Text Box Properties dialog. In the font pane, you need to specify the font color. The Fx symbol indicates that you can specify a formula. Click this button for a place to enter your '=iif...' formula.
Admittedly this does not answer your scenario but may help someone else. I had an issue where a stand-alone textbox using a scenario where I wanted to display an error message when there was either no record or duplicate records. My formula "=IIf(IsNothing(First(Fields!MyField.Value)) Or First(Fields!MyField.Value) <> Last(Fields!MyField.Value), "Red", "SomeOtherColorButNotBlack") which did not render the correct fore-color (came out "Black") however, doing a similar expression that equates to True or False on a Tablix or Matrix does work fine. Another one for MS to solve. I found my own workaround by setting the color to always be red and then the expression of the Text to be blank when no error.
