SSRS - columns of charts - reporting-services

I need to add a chart for each group to a report.
If I create a table and add a chart so each group is created automatically, there is one chart per line which wastes a lot of real estate (the rest of the report is landscape).
Is there a way (other than creating each chart separately) to have multiple charts per row of a table?

I had a burst of inspiration and was able to create a 5 x 3 matrix of charts using a matrix. Thought I'd share in case anyone else had a similar need.
I joined my original query to a derived table that had each group name and used Row_Number() over the group name to add sequential numbers.
For the matrix column grouping I used:
=Fields!ROW_NUM.Value MOD 5
And for the Row Grouping:
=INT((Fields!ROW_NUM.Value - 1) / 5)
Bam! Five columns of charts. Simply change the 5 to whatever number of columns desired. The same method could be used to put a single data element in multiple columns of a report. Not something anyone would do normally but may come in handy.

Getting SSRS to aggregate as rows instead of columns

I've constructed a cube using SSAS, and I'm using that cube to fuel an SSRS report. Using Excel, I can generate reports as pivot tables from the SSAS source, and I'm trying to replicate some of that functionality as a report in SSRS instead.
Here's how I have the thing set up in Excel:
As you can see from the pictures, I have several stats that are being displayed per row rather than per column. The results that are displayed per row are aggregated statistics (sum, count, etc...).
How do I accomplish this same thing using SSRS? In Excel, it was simply a question of saying "Move to Row Labels".
You can create a Matrix, set the column group to be by fiscal calendar .
Within the row group you will need to add additional detail rows and place each value on the row.
This should give you the desired results more of less.

SSRS - Sum columns where condition exists

I have an SSRS report, where there are groups (in this case Mills 1-4), each one having a product milled and the tons produced (for example).
I need to add up the 4 groups (ton produced), wherein each group, the product = this.
Like if Mill#1 made product X and Mill#4 also made product X, then I need to add the "tons" produced fields for these two.
If all the Mills made the same product, then the sum would be for "tons produced" for all 4.
Example below:
I would want to add tons produced for the two rows in green where the product = M120
Example of data
"
To make it work the way you want, you'll need to use a Matrix with the columns as your product.
You'll need to add a matrix. Use the MILL for your row column grouping. Use the Product as the Column grouping. Add the TONS as the Data. You can right-click on the TONS and Insert Column -> Inside Group if you also want to add another column - say for the Hours.
Left click on the Tons and you can automatically add the Column Total and Row Total.

SSRS: How to expend report details horizontally and vertically simultaneously to use minimum pages

I am working with AX to create an RDP based SSRS report and I need help with a certain design requirement in SSRS report.
I need to show student data in header detail style but with header group based on Class Id and detail group based on Student Id.
And the SSRS shows detail data in simple tabular style like this..
But I want the detail data to expend horizontally first in four columns and then goes into next row for another four values and so on.. So that report would use minimum pages possible to show all the data.
Below is snapshot of the sample output I want to achieve:
Kindly suggest if there is any solution to obtain this.
Thanks.
You can use a matrix to force grouping by rows of 4 cells that you can put your current table with Student and Marks in.
Your data would need a ROW_NUMBER added to it in order for the data to be sorted into groups of 4. You could just add another column to your data ROW_NUMBER()OVER(ORDER BY STUDENT_ID) AS ROW_NUM.
Add a matrix to the report and remove the row and column headers so there's only 1 cell remaining (I had to remove them and add the Group back in and remove it again) and set it to the same DataSetName as your current table.
Row Grouping:
=INT((Fields!ROW_NUM.Value - 1) / 4)
Column Grouping:
=Fields!ROW_NUM.Value MOD 4
This will sort your data to have groups of 4 with a column grouping of 0 on the first row.
Then size the cell to fit your table with the Student ID and Marks and put your table in the cell.
I'm not aware of a feature in the SSRS report designer that would allow you to do this. However, you could create a table to be used as data source for the report that has the necessary structure. The table would have 4 student id and 4 marks fields. This should allow you to create the desired design.

Is it possible to duplicate a certain page in SSRS?

I have a requirement on a report that requires me to replicate a certain page based on a certain data. For example Process page = 5 so therefore the page on which it has the process must be replicated 5 times. Is this possible programmatically on SSRS?
Thanks
As #Filburt pointed out. You can do this with a subreport.
You need to build a dataset that will contain one row per page to be repeated, so in this case just a list of numbers 1 to 5 will suffice. Then add a table to your report that uses this dataset as it's source. Make the table one column wide and insert your subreport into the only cell. This will produce a 5 row table each of which will contain a copy of your subreport.
First, you need to duplicate the results that needs to be replicated:
Oracle duplicate row N times where N is a column
Then you can add page group:
How to do page grouping in ssrs?

SSRS Report Builder 3.0 Auto-generate columns for flat table (not matrix grouping) to avoid manual dragging? possible?

I must be missing something very obvious!
If I have a simple query (SELECT * FROM Table) which has 200 columns - rather than dragging each of my dataset columns onto my table object in design mode, is there any way to have those 200 columns auto built to that table, or a new table? THE CATCH IS - I don't want to do any grouping, summing, etc.. Just a flat table.
** IF I try to use the Table Wizard, it eventually brings me to that "Arrange Fields" box which provides Column groups, Row groups and Values. I only want "Columns" generated, not any kind of Matrix grouping. Just a flat table, so if my dataset returns 1000 rows, I want a table that has 200 columns, and 1000 rows.
Is this not possible in Report Builder? I'm completely stumped!! Help very much appreciated. Thanks!
The wizard WILL do exactly what you're looking for - when you get to the page in the wizard with the 3 boxes (row/column groups + details), just put all of your fields into the Details box - neither of the grouping boxes are required fields.
Leave the formatting alone on the following page, and you're set.
