I've a SSRS page which has header, two charts with different datasets and a subreport below charts.
When I run the page and drill down (I click on one of the bars of chart, it calls itself) and data populates in subreport which spans multiple pages.
My problem is I want to repeat those charts on each page. I've searched and tried a lot However nothing worked forme.
How can I repeat charts in multiple pages of subreport? Please note that I've got charts with different data sets and that subreport is used at multiple places.
Thanks for the reply mike.
I believe it can not be achieved using subreports. hence, i embedded that subreport tablix into report and did as suggested by mike(charts went into header row).
Since tablix accepts only single dataset, i created a big dataset that has all the fields for two charts and data and applied required settings to get the job done.
It worked for me(at least to get the job done.).
I had a report that after each record (customer), I put a page break so that each record got its own numbers in one page. I also wanted to add a graph specific to only that customer. So i added the graphs into a table. In the table where my graphs were place, I added a parent group group - the same group as my data and I checked that the table also had the page break on the same group. This separated each record into a page each and also added the graphs to its corresponding record.
I would try to wrap the two charts and subreport inside a tablix. The dataset for the tablix would be one that returns a single row.
The two charts would go into the header row(s). The subreport would go in the Detail row.
Row and Column sizes need to be expanded to fit the chart and subreport sizes. There may be only one or two Columns depending on your layout.
Then I would use the dreaded "Advanced Mode" technique to get the header row(s) to repeat on each page, e.g.

I have a main report calling three subreports. The subreports are being grouped together by the CourseID field. Page 1 shows course 1 for the first two reports. The third subpreport is for comments. If course 1 has comments, they will show up on page 2. If there were no comments, page 2 will be first two subreports for course 2.
The problem is that a blank page is showing up on page 2 when there are no comments for the course.
I have a tried grouping the three subreports in two different ways, as shown in the attached image. The attempt 1 is the one displaying the issue I just described. Attempt 2 does not insert a blank page, but it does not page break on the comments subreport either. It adds the comments to the bottom of the 2nd report.
I removed the page break between each group instance in the group properties and tablix properties of the 3rd report because it was not making a difference whether or not I had them anyway.
I also have ConsumeWhitespaceContainer enabled on the main report properties. It adds several more empty pages if set to false.
The width margins on all four reports are calculated with the tablix width figured in. The subreport widths in the main report are wider than the actual subreport width as well. subreport groupings in the main report
Is there a setting I am missing in the design view?
Been pulling my hair out over an issue in SSRS. I"m converting Crystal reports to SSRS. What I have is a Dataset in a table in my detail area of my SSRS report, grouping on a certain field, displays data and summaries by group, no problem. What i need to have however, is data from that same group in the page header and footer, sometimes certain values as a summation of a numerical value from the dataset for that same group. When I attempt this (i.e. = Sum(Fields!payment_amt.Value, "DataSet1"), I get the summation of that value for the entire dataset, not just for the group in question. I need it for just the group. in the page header and footer. Likewise doing something like First(Fields!columnname.Value, "DataSet1") will only display the initial value of the comlumname for the dataset, and does not page to the next value in the grouping as I scroll through the pages
SSRS will not allow you to put a table or subreport in the header or footer, so i cannot simulate the data retrieval in the header and footer to match the specified grouping in the detail area. It seems Crystal Reports and other report tools can handle something like this just fine, with sort of "free form" in the headers and footers, which display the proper data in the page headers and footers base on the specified groupings.
SSRS seems to rigid with requiring the Table Layout for datasets for grouping, not allowing for free form style. is there a way around this?
Without seeing exactly what you are trying to achieve I can't give a specific answer but you can reference textbox names including the textboxes that make up your tablix.
So, if you have a tablix and one of the columns showed, say, an account balance. Click the cell in question and get it's name from the properties window. If it's called, say Textbox99 then in your header you can refernce is with something like
=FIRST(ReportItems!TextBox99.Value)
Other types of aggregations are available..
I have inherited an SSRS report which is basically a single table (tablix), one row of which contains a subtable. When the subtable is less than 10 rows, the report fits on a single page. However, when there are more than 10 rows, the report inserts a page break before the subtable and starts a new page, leaving over half of the first page blank.
What the users would like is for the subtable to split across the page break; that is, have the first 10 rows on page one, then start page 2 with a header row for the subtable and continue it.
Is there a simple way to achieve this or is it a case where the report really needs rewriting from scratch?
FYI, we are using SSRS 2012.
In inner tablix make sure keep together on one page if possible is unchecked.
Other way you can handle is remove the inner tablix and incorporate the same functionality in the main table.
After further attempts, I managed to get the table to split. The problem was that the row did not contain only the tablix, but also had textboxes to either side. It seems these were kept together as a group.
FYI, the more interesting problem was getting the headers onto the 2nd and following pages in the sub-table. This MSDN article explained the use of advanced settings to achieve this.
I have a tablix in SQL REPORTS (SSRS) that has many grouped items.
It fits roughly 3.5 groupped item per page when printnig, however I dont want the groups to be split up over the 2 pages, I want a pagebreak to happen whenever the group needs to be split.
I dont want to have it 1 group per page either, I know there is an option for that.
At the bottom of the report builder, you will see two boxes, Row Groups and Column Groups. Select the Column Groups drop down, click "Advanced Mode" and then in Row groups highlight "Details". In Properties under the "Other" section, select "True" for Keep Together. and save. This should work.
Note: I know this is old hope this helps people starting out though.
Modifying the property Other -> KeepTogether of the outermost row group desired to keep within a single page worked for me using Report Builder 3.
My KeepTogether values for each Row Group
Notice in my example, KeepTogether is false for table1_Group1. I don't want to keep my entire dataset together. Instead I want to keep only individual groupings of that dataset together.
In order to see the Properties panel, enable the Properties checkbox under the Show/Hide section of the View tab of the Ribbon.
My View settings
Probably the best place to start is the group-level KeepTogether property.
Indicates whether to keep all sections of the data region together on
one page.
I have just worked through 3 similar reports that were all suffering this issue.
It was only when I marked the group row AND the detail row to get the report to force a page break and keep the pages together.
Interestingly, I can then set the DETAIL BACK to false and the report still functions correctly. I have no explanation as to why, but this was repeatable.
I am using SQL Server 2016 Report Builder (the red one)
I tried all options about that. When I have a more difficult group, it sometimes happens, that the group will be split across pages. Even though setting "Keep Together" property to True.
My solution is:
don't use multiple rows
use one row with rectangle
to rectangle import TextBoxes and fill them with expression "=Fields!Column.Value"
I have few subreports in a sql main report(.rdl file) using VS/SSRS 2008.
The subreports start approximately on the middle of the page in the main report detail section. I have one group in main report, shows header information and pass one parameter - ReportID to each subreport.
I also have checked both:
Row Headers – “Repeat header rows on each page” and
Column Headers – “Repeat header columns on each page”
on General tab of Tablix properties of the main report.
If I have few detail lines in the subreport, so that all can be rendered on page one, everything is ok.
If I have more detail lines in the subreport so that it's not possible to print all on one page, the subreport renders from the fist page and moves on to page two, three and so on.
When I have more than one page of data in the subreport, it is also started on page one, and continues renders on second page and so on...
However, it doesn't show the main report's column/row headers on subsequent pages of the subreports?
I've noticed that when next item/ReportID starts in my main report group, it prints column header only on the first page but not any subsequent page and so on...
I also tried to check only ONE, either
Row Headers – “Repeat header rows on each page” OR
Column Headers – “Repeat header columns on each page”
on general tab of Tablix properties of the main report BUT didn’t work?
Any ideas how to print header info on each page when subreport has more than one page data?
Pagination is always fun in SSRS.
Have you looked at the page size/interactive of the subreport? This may stop the subreport paging, but I don't know if it's what you want.
An older article on pagination
And a newer one
Presently I am encountering the same problem. In a previous SSRS report we got it to work by putting our tablix inside a single-cell list item so that the headers were repeated. Now I am working on a different report, and when I try the same thing I'm getting this error:
[rsInvalidDetailDataGrouping] The tablix ‘tablixOpportunitySummary’ has a detail member with inner members. Detail members can only contain static inner members.
I've searched extensively, but this is the only link which indicates an known problem in SSRS. At the time of this post it contained 4 workarounds:
https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/details/337720/katmai-reporting-services-2008-tablix-control-repeat-column-headers-does-not-work#
A little late, but I think this is what you are looking for:
You need to go to tablix properties > General and check the option Keep header visible while scrolling. Then go to column/row groups in the advanced mode, chose your static row and set the Fixed Data mode to True, Repeat on new page to True and Keep with group to After.
Here is probably the best reference: Here
