Microsoft access report sum function - ms-access

I have a report contain sub report on Microsoft Access database.
I want to sum column in a report and sum another column in a sub report
and sum the result from the two columns in a label.
When I try to sum column in a report using expression -> =sum([outcome])
it show #error in the sum textbox.
Somebody help me please.

Are you adding the calculation in a Header/Footer

Edit
Could wrap it in an NZ
=NZ( value, valueIfNull )
https://599cd.com/glossary/access/nz/
Try a DSUM

SSRS expressions SUM between textbox

I'm trying to calculate an expression to SUM two ssrs textboxes but then I get the following error:
The Value expression for the textrun ‘Textbox343.Paragraphs[0].TextRuns[0]’ contains an error: [BC30456] 'textbox346' is not a member of 'Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ReportObjectModel.ReportItems'.
The error message says that the control textbox346 can't be found. As you say that you try to calculate a SUM on this textbox, you probably want to do this in a group header or footer, but on that level, you can't access a report item (a textbox) on a lower level (a details row), because there can be many of them.
Also: Aggregate functions (like SUM) can't operate on expressions that refer to report items. The values in such expressions must depend just on the dataset. The amount of data can be controlled by grouping the tablix and using a scope for the function.
Therefore, if your textbox textbox346 (on the group details level) is bound to an expressions depending on just dataset fields, use that same expression in your SUM furmula in Textbox343 (in the group header or footer).
could you just sum it in sql? it's often easier to just avoid the error by summing it up in the dataset.

SSRS Dataset get a row based on specific criteria

I have a dataset called Box as below:
Dataset Called Box
I am trying to rewrite this Crystal Reports command If {Name} like "Train*" Then
{volume} in SSRS as =IIf(Fields!NAME.Value="Train", Fields!VOLUME.Value, Nothing) or =IIf(Left(Fields!NAME.Value,3)="Tra", Fields!VOLUME.Value, Nothing) I need to get the last value 9977, but I cannot use Last function in SSRS, as the order might change.
Please suggest.
Thanks.

SSRS IIF Expression across Multiple DataSets

I'm trying to do an IIF expression on a 2nd dataset to sum the 'BookingsComfirmed2016LASTWEEK' column and then divide it by the sum of the 'Stock2016Week' column in the dataset I'm in and where the PropertyTypeCategory = Cottage, but with no joy. I'm sure it's something to do with the placement of the 2nd dataset name, but would appreciate any help. Regards Claire
Dataset1 = TradingLastWeekandYTD
Dataset2 = TradinglastWeekandYTDSTOCK
=(IIF(Fields!PropertyTypeCategory.Value, "TradingLastWeekandYTD" = "Cottage",Sum(Fields!BookingsConfirmed2016LASTWEEK.Value, "TradingLastWeekandYTD")) /(IIF(Fields!PropertyTypeCategory.Value = "Cottage", Sum(Fields!Stock2016Week.Value)),0)
Your iif() won't work like this.
You can't check row by row in a dataset you're not currently working in, which is what you are trying to do with the first part of the iif().
You can use custom code to do an aggregated lookupset() to get the values of the first part.
This link https://itsalocke.com/aggregate-on-a-lookup-in-ssrs/ will help you do the custom code.
For the lookupset(), you would have to do something like..
=Code.SumLookup(lookupset(Fields!PropertyTypeCategory.Value, "Cottage", Fields!BookingsConfirmed2016LASTWEEK.Value))
This assumes that your custom code function is called "SumLookup". It will sum all the values that the lookupset() returns.

How to sum 1 specific column from a userform listbox to display in a textbox on same form

I have been trying for several hours to resolve my problem myself but with no luck.
The controls I have are as follows
Userform - [frm_Team_View]
Listbox - [lst.Team] (column 0=Name, column 1=Initials, column 2=manager, column 3=hours worked)
I am trying to calculate the total hours worked for the whole team and display this in textbox - [txt_THours].
I have tried to do this in VBA using DSUM & SUM
I have also tried the same methods using the Control Source.
txt_THours.Value = Sum(Forms![frm_Team_View]![lst_Team].column(3))
Each time I keep getting a #Error message displayed in the textbox.
I managed to get a count of the rows in the listbox by using the .listcount function. I have not been able to find a function to sum the values.
The Query is run directly from the listbox so is not saved seperatly. I am unable to save the query seperatly as this will not allow other functionality I have on the userform.
Many thanks in advance
It is not possible to sum the values in a listbox with an expression.
I assume you build the RowSource of the listbox dynamically? When you do this, save the WHERE clause in a variable, and use the same WHERE clause in a DSum expression for the textbox.
Or run a VBA loop over the rows after setting the RowSource, but that seems a little silly.
For i = 0 To Me.lst_Team.ListCount - 1
mySum = mySum + Me.lst_Team.Column(3, i)
Next i
I managed to resolve this question after several hours.
Please see below
txt_THours = DSum("[Hrs]", "Manager_Query")

stuck in microsoft report

My report is containing some null value.
Report is generated through query
In my report I am calculating sum of every field for that I had written =iif((field name) is null,0,sum(field name))
Through this function I am getting result as 0 only if field contains some value as well
I agree with Remou, you should be using the footers for totals. However if you wanted to carry on with the way you are doing things then try replacing the IIF with NZ(MyField,0)
You should put that IIf statement in the query for that (or those) fields that you want to avoid nulls on. That way you can just put the Sum function in the details section of the report with impunity (assuming details section here).
