I have been working on ssrs and tried to do the following statement. I am using data from 2 datasets and there is no way I can merge them into one (I tried that when I first had this error). Code:
=Sum(iif(Fields!Year.Value = Max(Fields!Year.Value) - 1 , Sum(Fields!PersonCount.Value, "RetCust"), 0))
This code gives the error: The Value expression for the text box has a nested aggregate that specifies a dataset scope. Inner aggregates cannot specify a dataset scope.
I have also tried a different variation of this code which is as follows:
=(iif(Fields!Year.Value = Max(Fields!Year.Value) - 1 , Sum(Fields!PersonCount.Value, "RetCust"), 0))
I just got rid of the sum at the beginning. But this time I had a different error: Report item expressions can only refer to fields within the current dataset scope or, if inside an aggregate, the specified dataset scope. Letters in the names of fields must use the correct case
Hope someone can help :)
Cheers
Your expression is a bit wrong.
=Sum(iif(Fields!Year.Value = Max(Fields!Year.Value) - 1 , Sum(Fields!PersonCount.Value, "RetCust"), 0))
Your Sum is outside and is covering the two fields which is not on the same dataset. You should assign Sum for each of them since they are from different dataset.
Try this:
=iif(Sum(Fields!Year.Value) = Max(Sum(Fields!Year.Value)) - 1 , Sum(Fields!PersonCount.Value, "RetCust"), 0)
Note: I haven't tested the Max(Sum(.... if that's correct.

So I have a multiple value parameter than contains 3 options. >250K, <250K, >2M.
I also have a table that consists of multiple columns.
. Because the parameter is a multivalue, i am having difficulties filtering the dataset.
I need to filter the dataset by checking, (if > 250K is selected, filter the dataset accordingly), (if < 250K is selected, filter the dataset accordingly) and (if > 2M is selected, filter the dataset accordingly).
I was told to use a join and split on the parameter within the (>250K condition, then do a contains to see if it contains any of the parameter values) but I am not as advanced in my knowledge of coding to be able to do that.
Any Suggestion? Thanks in Advance
I previously tried the method below but then i came to realise that it wont work because the parameter is a multi value.
I know its been a while since you raised this, you were on the right track but all you should need to do is add a filter to the Tablix on the field you will be filtering, use the 'in' operator and in the Value type [#Yourparametername] the square brackets and case sensitivity are important. Also ensure the expression type is correct, in your case it looks like you are using Integer. The image should help.
If you want to use multi-parameters, In the dataset, you can read parameter value using JOIN.
Example:
If you want to read multiple values for #MyParamter in a dataset given in the following example:
Dataset Parameters
you need to use =JOIN(Parameters!myMultiParamter.Value,",") as an expression to read all selected values in CSV form.
Expression
Now the #ParameterValues param has all selected values as comma separated values and you can use them in your dataset code as per design requirements.
Note: It's not necessary to use a comma but u can use anything you want to separate values.
Your sql query where should look like
Where
(
(0 IN (#Parameter) AND ValueColumn<250000)
OR
(1 IN (#Parameter) AND ValueColumn>=250000)
OR
(2 IN (#Parameter) AND ValueColumn>=2000000)
)
One parameter
Two parameters
All parameters
Once you return the value you can also use charindex or patindex* and look for where the value in your where clause is a pattern where the index number is > 0 . For instance if the returned string from SSRS is '01,02,03' and then your where clause has something like this right(field, 2) which would result in value '03'. you change your where clause to be where patindex('%' + right(field, 2) + '%', #returnedstring) > 0 which will give you results. The keeps you from having to parse apart the #returnedstring parameter in your sql code.
This SO link, WHERE Caluse in SSRS expression, verifies that my syntax is correct yet I get this error:
"An error occurred during local report processing.
The definition of the report is invalid.
The Value expression for the text box 'txt1A_EMA' uses an aggregate expression without a scope. A scope is required for all aggregates used outside of a data region unless the report contains exactly one dataset."
My expression:
=Sum(IIF((Fields!COU_EMA.Value, "CA_Summary") = 1, (Fields!Amount.Value, "CA_Summary"), 0))
There are 3 Datasets in my report. The one I want is "CA_Summary" and the expression above was built with the expression builder.
The field, (Fields!COU_EMA.Value, "CA_Summary"), is a boolean (1 or 0) and I get error either with a 1 or a "true" (no quotes).
I probably could fix it if I knew what the definition of "scope" is. . . maybe.
The scope is where you want to look in order to get the values you're looking for. It could be a data set, group, etc. In your expression it appears CA_Summary is the scope.
I would try modifying the expression a bit. Since you say COU_EMA is bit field, maybe use TRUE. This is also assuming the matrix is using the data set CA_Summary.
=Sum(IIF(Fields!COU_EMA.Value = TRUE, Fields!Amount.Value, 0))
If your matrix isn't using that data set and it still doesn't work try
=Sum(IIF(Fields!COU_EMA.Value = TRUE, Fields!Amount.Value, 0),"CA_Summary")
I'm New to SSRS.
Im trying to create a report where i need to group by [DATA Flag] column which is working fine ,but once the data is grouped i need to set the DATA FLAG ="TotalCancellations" and there is another column CancellDays which i need to set it as <120 .
I tried
Option 1:-
So to achieve this i have added TWO filters one with
Expression : DATA FLAG
Operator =
and Value as TotalCancellations
and the other filter as follows
Expression : Cancelldays
Operator =
and Value as < 120
But its not working and giving empty result,i have records with Cancelldays <120
Option 2 :-
Right click on Group and in General Tab ,Group on Expression as below ]
Fields!DFlag.Value = "TotalCancellations" AND Fields!DFlag.Value <120
which didnt work :(
this is similar to writing having clause in SQL i believe but im not getting how to implement that here in SSRS.
i can add in SQL Query but its already a huge query with lot of unions so please suggest me if there is any way i can implement here in SSRS
Im using Matrix in SSRS 2008
Adjusting the syntax for your option 1 is probably the easiest solution. In the Group Properties, under the Filters section, enter these two filters:
Expression: [DFlag] (Text)
Operator: =
Value = TotalCancellations
Expression: =Sum(Fields!CancelDays.Value) [enter this in the expression builder] (Integer)
Operator: <
Value: 120
Putting all the filters in a single expression, like your option 2, can be useful if you need to filter by one criteria OR another.
Below are the filer expressions
and this is how group by is
The filter should be implemented at the tablix level, not at the group level.
I am trying to write an expression in SSRS which counts only specific data using IIF. I found the following solution:
=Sum(IIF(Fields!Program.Value = "FC", Fields!QuantityToShip.Value, 0))
The code above works but only when there is ONE dataset, while I have several.
Here is the code I wrote:
=Count(IIF(Fields!Mgroup.Value,"DataSet1"=303,1,0))
I get the aggregation error:
Textbox refers directly to the field ‘Mgroup’ without specifying a dataset aggregate
I added a sum:
=Count(IIF(Sum(Fields!Mgroup.Value,"DataSet1")=303,1,0))
Still getting the same error.
Why is that?
What can I put instead of Sum? All I need is to count how many groups named 303 I have.
The expression you used has some sintax errors. The Count function only aggregate from the scoped Dataset.
Try this:
=LookupSet(303,Fields!Mgroup.Value,Fields!Mgroup.Value,"DataSet1").Length
Let me know if this helps you.
I have tried to create a calculated field that will show the number of customer transactions processed within 15 minutes.
I have added the expression:
=count(fields!wait.Value<15)
However, when I run the query I'm getting the error message : 'expression used for the calculated field includes an aggregate RowNumber...'
Can you advise please on how to create a calculated field so I can capture the value I want?
I have tried = SUM(IIF(Fields!wait.Value < 15 , 1, 0)) to no avail.
With many thanks.
Calculated fields added to datasets can't have aggregate functions. The calculated field is essentially adding an extra column to your dataset. It sounds like you may want a variable? Used elsewhere in the report, your second expression would work, or the similar
=Count(IIf(Fields!wait.Value<15, 1, Nothing))
would work too.
