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

I am trying to use an existing page break parameter in a new tablix that I added to an exisitng ssrs 2008 r2 report.
I am trying the solution at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15513313/conditional-page-breaks-at-group-level-in-ssrs2008-r2-reports/ so I can use the disabled property of the page break option on on the new tablix by using a parameter value that is 'text' and the parameter values are either True or False.
The new tablix that I am using has 5 level of row groups.
The problem is I do not see a 'group' property where I can set the control group name.
When I do set the pagebreak of the tablix I am working with to the following, =IIF(Parameters!PageBreak.Value="True",false,true), and run the page break parameter to true, I do get the page breaks. However when I set the page break parameter to false, all I see is information for one control group. I am basically missing all the informatiuon I need.
How do I solve this problem?
Click on the horzontal bars under the Row Groups. If you click for example on [StudentFullName your property pane on the right side changes to the group properties (Properties: Tablix Member). There you navigate to Group > Group > PageBreak > Disabled. Now put your expression in the Disabled property. Just follow the steps from the other post and you are done.
UPDATE
If you want a page break before each new item of a group right click on your group properties (in your case for example right click on [StudentFullName) then go to the tab page breaks and check the Between each instance of a group box.
I'm using Report Builder 2012 to create a report. I have inserted multiple text boxes and other controls inside a list box so that I can hide all the controls at once just by hiding the list box. I'm using a SQL Server stored procedure to fetch rows of data. I'm using below expression to hide/show the list box.
=iif(Fields!certificateType.Value = "CT", False, True)
It works fine but it only checks the first row of data. If certificateType field is "CT" in the first row of data, it shows the list box but it doesn't hide the list box back for the next row of data in which certificateType is not "CT". It seems like list box visibility only checks the first row of data and applies it for all the other rows as well. How can i check the visibility of list for all the data rows?
Okay, based on our chat I have updated this solution.
I mocked up some data that looks like this:
certificateType
---------------
AT
BT
CT
DT
ZT
I created a quick and dirty report with a list. In that, I added a rectangle with a textbox in it. I set the dataset for the list to the main dataset (DataSet1 in my case). I set the expression for the textbox to this:
=Fields!certificateType.Value
Image in design mode:
I clicked on the list, and in the Row Groups pane, I right-clicked the Details rows, and chose Group Properties. On the General section, I clicked Add to add a new group expression. Then I chose certificateType from the dropdown.
I moved to the Page Break section of the Group Properties dialog and ticked the Between each instance of a group check box. Click OK.
Now, the report will break for each instance of a certificate type that comes in the dataset. So, if you have ten different cert types in the data, you will get one page for each.
You can't see it in my image below, but there are 5 pages now.
Hope this helps!!
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.
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.
