My expression shows just the Name, SSN, DOB and Phonenumber.
Here's my expression:
=Fields!FST_NAME.Value & vbCrLf & Fields!LAST_NAME.Value & vbCrLf & Fields!SOC_SECURITY_NUM.Value & vbCrLf & Fields!BIRTH_DT.Value & vbCrLf & Fields!ATTRIB_43.Value
I want it to show like this
Name: John Smith
Right Now it just shows John Smith
If you write one big expression your textbox will look like this:
This is hard to work with both in terms of layout and making corrections to the formula. A good alternative is to use placeholders with labels in your textbox. So you would type in "Name: " and then right click after it and select "Create Placeholder". Set the properties like this:
And the textbox can be nice to read and work with:
You can even control the formatting of the placeholders independently which comes in handy if you need to include dates or numbers.
If all of your fields are strings, then this works:
=Fields!FST_NAME.Value + " " +
Fields!LAST_NAME.Value + " " +
Fields!SOC_SECURITY_NUM.Value + " " +
Fields!BIRTH_DT.Value + " " +
Fields!ATTRIB_43.Value
However, if Birth_Dt, or any other field is not a valid string (DateTime datatype, for example) then you will need to use CStr(Fields!BIRTH_DT.Value) to convert it to a string so it can be correctly concatenated.
In an example I can do locally my expression is as follows:
=CStr(Fields!ExpMonth.Value) + " " +
Fields!ItemName.Value + " " +
Fields!ItemClass.Value
The first three rows of the result it produces look like this:
1 1 Year Membership 1 Year 1 1 Year Membership 1 Year
2 1 Year Membership 1 Year 2 1 Year Membership 1 Year
3 1 Year Membership 1 Year 3 1 Year Membership 1 Year
To add text to the string, you can encapsulate it in quotes in your concatenated string, like this:
="This is added text" + " " +
CStr(Fields!ExpMonth.Value) + " " +
Fields!ItemName.Value + " " +
Fields!ItemClass.Value
The above results now look like this:
1 1 Year Membership 1 Year This is added text 1 1 Year Membership 1 Year
2 1 Year Membership 1 Year This is added text 2 1 Year Membership 1 Year
3 1 Year Membership 1 Year This is added text 3 1 Year Membership 1 Year

I'm struggling to write an SSRS expression to show dates based on a group heading and parameter date.
The expression needs to look at the cell value and add 1 & 7 days. The date parameter is called inputdate
so if the cell value = '4) Overdue Week 1 - ' then inputdate + 1 &-& inputerdate +7 as WE1
if the cell value = '5) Overdue Week 2 - ' then inputdate + 8 &-& inputerdate +14 as WE2
if the cell value = '6) Overdue Week 3 - ' then inputdate + 15 &-& inputerdate +21 as WE2
and so on...
The cell is based on a grouped header.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance
This is my attempt:
=IIf((Fields!Type_of.Value = "4) Overdue Week 1 - '",
DateAdd("d",1,Parameters!inpdate.Value) +-+ DateAdd("d",7,Parameters!inpdate.Value),0)
,IIf((Fields!Type_of.Value = "5) Overdue Week 2 - '"
,DateAdd("d",8,Parameters!inpdate.Value) +-+ DateAdd("d",14,Parameters!inpdate.Value),0)
IIf((Fields!Type_of.Value = "6) Overdue Week 3 - '"
,DateAdd("d",15,Parameters!inpdate.Value) +-+ DateAdd("d",21,Parameters!inpdate.Value),0)
IIf((Fields!Type_of.Value = "7) Overdue Week 4 - '"
,DateAdd("d",22,Parameters!inpdate.Value) +-+ DateAdd("d",28,Parameters!inpdate.Value),0)
IIf((Fields!Type_of.Value = "8) Overdue Week 5 - '"
,DateAdd("d",29,Parameters!inpdate.Value) +-+ DateAdd("d",35,Parameters!inpdate.Value),0)
IIf((Fields!Type_of.Value = "9) Overdue Week 6 - '"
,DateAdd("d",36,Parameters!inpdate.Value) +-+ DateAdd("d",42,Parameters!inpdate.Value),0)
but it returns an error;
Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State
Error [rsCompilerErrorInExpression] The Value expression for the field 'Date_Type_of' contains an error: [BC30198] ')' expected.
In addition to what Harry mentioned, your IIF statement syntax is incorrect. You don't have any closing parenthesis nor a final ELSE.
Here's what should work:
=IIf(Fields!Type_of.Value = "4) Overdue Week 1 - '",
DATEADD("d", Parameters!inpdate.Value, 1) & "-" & DATEADD("d", Parameters!inpdate.Value,7),
IIf(Fields!Type_of.Value = "5) Overdue Week 2 - '",
DATEADD("d", Parameters!inpdate.Value,8) & "-" & DATEADD("d", Parameters!inpdate.Value, 14),
IIf(Fields!Type_of.Value = "6) Overdue Week 3 - '",
DATEADD("d", Parameters!inpdate.Value, 15) & "-" & DATEADD("d", Parameters!inpdate.Value, 21),
Parameters!inpdate.Value)
)
)
I indent to keep track of the levels of IIFs. But as Harry also mentioned, a SWITCH is better when you have multiple scenarios.
=SWITCH( Fields!Type_of.Value = "4) Overdue Week 1 - '", DATEADD("d", Parameters!inpdate.Value, 1) & "-" & DATEADD("d", Parameters!inpdate.Value,7),
Fields!Type_of.Value = "5) Overdue Week 2 - '", DATEADD("d", Parameters!inpdate.Value,8) & "-" & DATEADD("d", Parameters!inpdate.Value, 14),
Fields!Type_of.Value = "6) Overdue Week 3 - '", DATEADD("d", Parameters!inpdate.Value, 15) & "-" & DATEADD("d", Parameters!inpdate.Value, 21),
True, Parameters!inpdate.Value
)
This question already has answers here:
Compare dates in MySQL
(5 answers)
Closed last year.
when I output these two SQL operations, the columns for the two months (01 = January) and (02 = February) are summed together instead of individually. So they show the same output. But why?
If if want to output (02 February) it should not show the sum of January but it does. Where is my problem in my code?
"SELECT SUM(" + dataBaseHelper.GET_SUM + ") FROM " + dataBaseHelper.TABLE_NAME + " WHERE " + dataBaseHelper.DATE + " BETWEEN '01/01/2022' AND " + "'07/01/2022'"
and
"SELECT SUM(" + dataBaseHelper.GET_SUM + ") FROM " + dataBaseHelper.TABLE_NAME + " WHERE " + dataBaseHelper.DATE + " BETWEEN '01/02/2022' AND " + "'07/02/2022'"
The standard syntax for date in MySQL is yyyy-mm-dd. I think you could replace the dates in your where between statement using this consideration. Otherwise read string to date cast specifications.
I am creating a report right now in ssrs that involves two columns from db. The two columns are needed to be combined in the displayed report.
Columns are:
[Column 1] Price_Low
[Column 2] Price_High
and sample values in both columns is: 0.0000
1st question how can i combine the 2 column having a dollar sign same this output using SSRS expression:
[1]: https://i.stack.imgur.com/dim6H.png
2dn question: what if query returns NULL how can i display just blank and not, $ - $
Here is my sample Exp:
'''=" $" & Fields!Price_Low.Value & " - $" & Fields!Price_High.Value'''
You can try the following solution:
=IIF(
(Format(Fields!Price_Low.Value, "C4") + " - " + Format(Fields!Price_High.Value,"C4")) = " - ", "",(Format(Fields!Price_Low.Value, "C4") + " - " + Format(Fields!Price_High.Value, "C4"))
)
I have a Time column in which is in minute , in ssrs i need to get average and output in such a way that its in Day, Hour and min.
For example Column name is Time (Min).How to write an expression in such a way that we can get result in day, hour and min
Assuming that your time column is just an integer datatype containing a number of minutes then something like this will work.
The following calculates based on a report parameter to make it easier to test so oyu will need to swap this out for the correct column name and aggregations. e.g. if you time column is called MyTime and you want to calculate based on the average then swap out Parameters!MyMins.Value with AVG(Fields!MyTime.Value)
= INT(Parameters!MyMins.Value / 1440) & " days " &
INT((Parameters!MyMins.Value MOD 1440) / 60) & " hours " &
(Parameters!MyMins.Value MOD 60) & " mins"
adjust the output to suit you formatting requirements....
The above turns 4455 minutes into the string "3 days 2 hours 15 mins"
Enter the following expression:
=Format(TimeSerial(0,Parameters!MyMins.Value,0),"dd") & " Days "
& Format(TimeSerial(0,Parameters!MyMins.Value,0),"HH") & " Hours "
& Format(TimeSerial(0,Parameters!MyMins.Value,0),"mm") & " Minutes "
Alternatively, create another parameter e.g. MyTime
=TimeSerial(0,Parameters!MyMins.Value,0)
(Ensure that this parameter is evaluated after MyMins by moving it down the list)
Then put that into the code above
=Format(Parameters!MyTime.Value,"dd") & " Days "
& Format(Parameters!MyTime.Value,"HH") & " Hours "
& Format(Parameters!MyTime.Value,"mm") & " Minutes "
Part of my query is like so:
SELECT * FROM TableA
WHERE ColumnA >= DATEADD(DAY, - 30, GETDATE())
With the expression at the where clause above, you can pull a rolling 30 days data without having to supply values. Now users of the report want to see it represented like:
2nd April – 1st May
when the report is ran. Knowing that I have no parameters as the requirement is to not use parameters, how do I reference ">= DATEADD(DAY, - 30, GETDATE())" to reflect the start date and the end date in the report?
SSRS doesn't have built-in support for ordinal numbers (i.e. "1st" or "2nd" instead of "1" or "2"). This page contains custom code to add this functionality to your SSRS report; however it is slightly wrong. Here is a corrected version:
Public Function FormatOrdinal(ByVal day As Integer) as String
' Starts a select case based on the odd/even of num
if(day = 11 or day = 12 or day = 13)
' If the nymber is 11,12 or 13 .. we want to add a "th" NOT a "st", "nd" or "rd"
return day.ToString() + "th"
else
' Start a new select case for the rest of the numbers
Select Case day Mod 10
Case 1
' The number is either 1 or 21 .. add a "st"
Return day.ToString() + "st"
Case 2
' The number is either a 2 or 22 .. add a "nd"
Return day.ToString() + "nd"
Case 3
' The number is either a 3 or 33 .. add a "rd"
Return day.ToString() + "rd"
Case Else
' Otherwise for everything else add a "Th"
Return day.ToString() + "th"
End Select
end if
End Function
If you add this code to the code section of your report under report properties, your textbox expression would be:
Code.FormatOrdinal(Day(Globals!ExecutionTime)) & " " & MonthName(Month(Globals!ExecutionTime), False) & " - " & Code.FormatOrdinal(Day(DateAdd("d", -30,Globals!ExecutionTime))) & " " & MonthName(Month(DateAdd("d", -30,Globals!ExecutionTime)), False)
Right Click on the Textbox, Go To Textbox Properties then, Click on Number tab, click on custom format option then click on fx button in black.
Write just one line of code will do your work in simpler way:
A form will open, copy the below text and paste there to need to change following text with your database date field.
Fields!FieldName.Value, "Dataset"
Replace FieldName with your Date Field
Replace Dataset with your Dateset Name
="d" + switch(int(Day((Fields!FieldName.Value, "Dataset"))) mod 10=1,"'st'",int(Day((Fields!FieldName.Value, "Dataset"))) mod 10 = 2,"'nd'",int(Day((Fields!FieldName.Value, "Dataset"))) mod 10 = 3,"'rd'",true,"'th'") + " MMMM, yyyy"
