I have a pivot table in Excel. I have field headings on my other sheet I have got the date in them that correspond with a name.
When I make the pivot table all of the columns that have different amounts of data in them all show the same total. It is almost like it is counting the blanks.
Please look at the pictures and tell me if I am doing something wrong.
It probably is counting the blanks -- even though there is nothing in the cell, there may be formatting or other aspects that the pivot will include in the count. To fix this, you can either:
Filter your raw data and filter each column to just show the (Blanks). Highlight the entire column and press delete
Instead of "Yes" use 1. In your pivot instead of "Count" choose the value field setting of "Count Numbers"

After plenty of research, it seemd I can't find a well-explained solution to my problem. I'll join some screenshots of my Tablix, group rows, and group columns to help you to understand.
First of all, here's my tablix. It's linked to a SharePoint List.
The expressions are all like this :
=Count(Fields!ID.Value, "NameOfTheGroup")
It counts the number of elements that are filtered by one of the group chosen in the expression, and it works perfectly fine at this point.
Now, here's my groups :
They all contains filters tomanage the count precisely to the need.
What I want to do : In the last row, I want to display the sum of each column that is in a group row. But theses rows aren't datasets fields, they are just only expressions, and I can't find a way to create a proper total of each column. I heard of Running Value but the few solutions I found about it didn't work.
Thanks for the future help.
EDIT: Actually, the problem seems to be much more complex: any rows I create under my group rows are invisible : if I create a new row under the "Classification", outside the "Classification" row group, the expression I insert in the "CDI", "CDD", etc... columns stay blank. I tried with various expression or just values like "Hello World".
I would like to custom the Report SSRS TaxReport_IT, I need to add a new field in order to use in to SyntethicReport Design.
(for example)
The classes involved seems these:
TaxReport_IT
TaxReportDP_IT
TaxReportController_IT
TaxReportContract_IT
Tables involved:
TmpTaxReport_ITSummary
TmpTaxReport_IT
TaxReportTmp_IT
Are there others? Are there some Queries involved?'
I added the new fields in to table _TmpTaxReport_IT_, and I pupulated the related tables
I'm sure, in to the method I pupulated correctly the new Field (I have the values that I expect), but when I print the Report I get a lower value. Seems like I don't take the total data set.
How can I add the new field and take the correctly total value?
I saved the data (about my custom field in a RegularTable) and the sum is correct, but I have mismatch when I print the report.
I think I skip some step to Report DataSet.
I use Dynamics AX 2012.
Thanks in advice!
I have an idea what could be wrong, but I'm making some assumptions. If they are not correct, please edit your question to clarify.
From your screenshot, it looks like you want to add your new custom field in the header section of the report design. I'm assuming the expression of that field looks similar to
=First(Fields!MyCustomFIELD.Value, "TaxReportDS_IT")
Note the First key word in that expression. This indicates that the value for that field should be taken from the first of the records of the report's dataset.
I'm assuming that you calculate the value of the field while the records in table TaxReportTmp_IT are being created so that each record has a different value. Maybe it is a sum of some other field, so the first record would have the smallest value and the last record the highest.
If all those assumptions are correct, you can fix this by changing the First keyword to Last. This indicates that you want to take the value of the last record of the report data set.
See also the documentation of the Last Function.
I have a data set where i'm using a table to display Name, Radio #, and Unit # information in SSRS tablix. As some of the groups have 60+ members, i thought it would be better to expand the tables into 4 columns repeating those detail fields instead of displaying a 3 page long skinny table. In the SQL i used a row count%4 function to assign a "position" number 0-3 for each name. If i create a table with the detail members above and then add a parent column group on position, i get the tables repeated as i want but each name/radio/unit appears on a unique row. I've tried several different ways of grouping rows/columns but always seem to get this staggered table (with only name/radio to make it easier to digest): sample_pic
Sorry if this is a duplicate. I've really searched quite a bit before putting this in but it's probably the case that if i knew what to search, i wouldn't be putting this question in. So if you'd rather tell me what to search i can do that too. :)
SSRS will display a row in the table for each row returned from the dataset, this is normal behaviour for data to display.
One way to get what you want is to create a query which has all the information form your column headings in one row, probably with a pivot or similar.
Or you could just display your columns in separate tables.
I am creating a report in SSRS. I have a table showing the date and time the report was generated, it's a single column table with one expression =Now() and is not linked to any datasets.
The trouble I am having is that it returns 77 rows all with the exact same date. My main dataset returns 77 rows in a different table but that table is not linked to this one in any way.
How can I stop it from returning so many rows? The reason I'm using a table and not a text box is because I want it to have the same look and feel as other data presented in my report i.e. Header Row and Data Presented underneath. There are a few tables that use the same approach and all of them are returning duplicate rows. As you can see from the image below, I just need the first row from each table.
EDIT: Looks like SSRS automatically references a dataset when I insert a new table. When I change the table properties dataset to none it returns an error. Is there a way around this? I don't want data from any dataset, just want to use an simple expression =now()
As you've seen, a Tablix requires a DataSet, and when you only have one DataSet in a report it will link to this DataSet automatically in some circumstances.
You've mentioned you don't want to use Textboxes, but this does seem like the easiest option.
If you're set on using a Tablix for ease of formatting, to prevent any repeating rows just delete the Details group that gets set up by default when you create a Table through the designer:
This leaves a table with one header row only - you can add more header rows as required:
The result is a table that will only display the header rows once, i.e. no repeating rows.
You can add Summary data or individual fields from the DataSet to these header rows; if no aggregation is specified it will just take the first row by default.
I have two tables and from that I am generating a query. I have columns in my query with field type yes/no. These are basically columns to determine the race of a person. The user enters information in yes/no for various races. I want another calculated column in the query which checks for all other race columns and calculates values in it.
I have to check for a few conditions in for the values in columns
For example:
1) If Hispanic is chosen, the new column should say hispanic(no matter what other options are selected. This is like a trump card)
2) If more than one is selected, then new column entry should say "multi"
3) If none of the options are selected, it should say "unknown"
4) If exactly one of them is selected, then that race should be displayed
Can anyone help me with this? I am new to Access
I can't code it for you but I can point you in the right direction. What you want to do is take all the tests you explained above and put them in a coded format :
iif ( condition, value_if_true, value_if_false )
Since you have a lot of possible outputs i'd use something like a Case Statement where you can test for all the possibilities.
Follow this link if you need any info on how to code both type of statements (iif and case).
Once you have tried something like this, you can comeback with a specific question if you encountered a problem in the process.
Good luck with your database.
