Initial value for RunningValue() SSRS - reporting-services

I am designing a report that need to get the cumulative value. I am using the RunningValue() function for it. The issue is the value always starts from 0. Is it possible to get an initial value and then do the RunningValue() from it?
Thanks
[EDITED]
This is what I need. The initial value comes from the total of accountIDs in a given date and the runningvalue() would start to add more accountIDs from it

Have you tried...
=RunningValue(*condition*) + starting_value
For example setting the value of the third column in the image below to
=RunningValue(CInt(Fields!Val.Value), Sum, "DataSet1") + 10
Gives

Expression for Calculating a RunningValue column in SSRS Tablix Control

User enters a fixed parameter representing a Credit Limit.
Then each row subtracts a different column called [AmountPaid].
So the Balance Available column show what is left and this gets smaller and smaller down the rows to the bottom.
Both column textboxes in Tablix are set to Number type=Currency. Parameter is set to Float. Not many choices of data type for the Parameter input.
I thought this would work in an expression for the Balance Available but it gives me an error. My idea was to do a running Sum and then subtract it from the initial Credit Limit:
=Parameters!CreditLimit.Value - RunningValue(Fields!AmountPaid, Sum, "DataSet1")
The message for the error is:
[rsAggregateOfInvalidExpressionDataType] The Value expression for the textrun ‘Textbox23.Paragraphs[0].TextRuns[0]’ uses an aggregate function with an expression that returned a data type not valid for the aggregate function.
If this question could be asked differently I am open to suggestions. Thanks
You need to get the value of AmountPaid so try Fields!AmountPaid.Value`

SSRS Get previous value in row group

I have A tablex which has row grouping , trying to do some calculation base on the previous row in the group. so I tested Last(Fields!InQty.Value) and put it in the total cell. and it get the value of the same row :
When I tried Previous(Fields!InQty.Value) it get the value from the last row in the previous group :
so what is the way to get the previous value in the same group, also how to check if the row is the first in the group.
Thank you.
This sounds like something you could just wrap inside an IF statement, perhaps as follows:
=IIF(Previous(Fields!ItemName.Value)=Fields!ItemName.Value,Previous(Fields!InQty.Value),Nothing)
...Or replace the Nothing with some constant if it's part of a larger calculation expression.
I think the best way in SSRS to do this is to use the RowNumber value for the group the cell is in (I'm calling it "Item" in the example below), and check that the RowNumber value for the group is greater than 1 before collecting the previous value. If it isn't greater than 1 you can put Nothing in the table cell:
=Iif(RowNumber("Item") > 1, Previous(Fields!InQty.Value), Nothing)

SSRS calculation expression for specific value

I'm looking at doing a calculation expression in SSRS but I've become unstuck.
I'm trying to calculate when a field equals a specific value, then return a percentage calculation.
This is what I've tried so far:
=SUM(IIF(Fields!Alert.Value="Red",(FormatPercent(Count(Fields!Sales.Value) / 6532 ,0)))SUM(IIF(Fields!Alert.Value="Yellow",(FormatPercent(Count(Fields!Sales.Value) / 2541 ,0)))SUM(IIF(Fields!Alert.Value="Green",(FormatPercent(Count(Fields!Sales.Value) / 1025,0)))
Obviously this is incorrect and doesn't work. The expression needs to include all 3 colours.
UPDATED see if this works.
UPDATED per requested. I put the statement in the last False part, but I'm not sure if this is what you really want.
UPDATED again. Added False part to the last IIF statement.
UPDATED: Removed the SUM function. Try this to see if it works. Your IIF statement didn't have any False parts. Also, just SUM once around the whole statement if you want it summed. Not knowing your data, I'm not sure if you want the % summed up.
=IIF(Fields!location.Value="East" AND Fields!Alert.Value="Red",(FormatPercent(Count(Fields!Sales.Value) / 6532 ,0)),IIF(Fields!Alert.Value="Yellow",FormatPercent(Count(Fields!Sales.Value) / 2541 ,0),IIF(Fields!Alert.Value="Green",FormatPercent(Count(Fields!Sales.Value) / 1025,0),0)))

Calculated field in SSRS

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.

SSRS: Get values from a particular row of DataSet?

My dataset currently has 12 rows of data. Each representing data for a month. I would like to have variance of a column between to rows, the rows being last & last but one i.e., latest month and previous month's data.
It could have been simple if I were to work on tablix but thats not the case. I want those values for a textbox.
Any ideas on it anyone?
I hope you are using SSRS 2008R2:
R2 introduced the Lookup function that is perfect for this scenario.
=Lookup( Fields!ProductUID.Value ,Fields!ProductID.Value,Fields!Price.Value,"PriceDataSet")
The Lookup function above will evaluate the first parameter ("Fields!ProductUID.Value") in the current dataset, then look for a matching value in the field specified in the second parameter ("Fields!ProductID.Value") in the dataset specified in the fourth parameter. The value of the third parameter is then evaluated in that row of the dataset and returned.
A little convoluted, but very helpful.
In your case, you can use this in a textbox with a calculated a static number:
=Lookup(
Month(DateAdd(DateInterval.Month, -1, GetDate())),
Fields!MonthID.Value,
Fields!Name.Value,
"DataSet1")
This should calculate a number for last month, then look for a match in DataSet1.
In this example I have a tablix with Statecode and name as below
enter image description here
Suppose you want to display the name of state of CA, write an expression as -
=Lookup(
"CA" ,
Fields!StateCode.Value,
Fields!StateName.Value,
"ReportData"
)
This will return 'California' in the text box
I ran across this post while trying to solve a similar problem but with columns of double data type. Not sure why but SSRS did not want to return my first row using LOOKUP in combination with ROW_NUMBER in SQL(If someone can solve that all the better). I ended up using a SUM(IIF) instead. Hopefully, this is useful for someone else.
=Sum(IIF(Fields!RowNum.Value=1,CDBL(Fields!MyNumericColumn.Value),CDBL(0)))
Note: If SSRS complains about data types, just cast both parts of the IIF to the desired data type.
