Currently working on an SSRS report in which there is a parameter "Display by Order" set to false as default. Within the body of the report, I would like to set the group expression to display the Column order if Parameter "Display by Order" is true otherwise do not display the column. I am unsure what the expression would be for this. Help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
The Hidden expression for the Column Visibility should be something like:
=Not Parameters!DisplayByOrder.Value
This just flips the parameter value, i.e. if the user selects True, the Hidden property should be False.
More details as requested
Add a Boolean parameter called DisplayByOrder.
I created a simple table with two columns.
Set the Column Visibility for the second column by right-clicking the top of the column to bring up its properties, then using the above expression:
Now the column is hidden/shown by the parameter selection as required:
Hi try with something like this
IIf(Parameters!DisplayByOrder.Value = False, True, False)

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.
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 need to hide column if all rows in column is empty (blank).
In this case col3 should be hidden, because no values in column.
col1 col2 col3
v1 v4
v2
v3
I'm using following expression on columns Hidden property:
=IIF(Fields!Test5.Value = "",TRUE,FALSE)
This expression working, but It hidding each blank(empty) field, even all column isn't empty. It should hide column only when there is no values at all.
You can use:
=IIF(Max(Field, Dataset)= "",TRUE,FALSE)
If the maximum value is empty it means that there is nothing, and make your hide expression on column.
in case of an SSRS report, right click on the column and click Textbox Properties, choose Column Visibility and write down the below expression on "Show or hide based on an expression"
You can use below if the column value is Null:
=IsNothing(Fields!Column.Value)
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 would like to set the visibility of columns based upon the value selected in a parameter.
The problem is I do not want a specific parameter to do this (i.e Hide column X True/False)
My report has several different "departments" who are only interested in certain columns.
What would be the syntax for example to hide the "Sales" column when the "Customer Care" parameter is set?
you can do these works step by step:
1- press right click of your mouse in your favorite column
2- select column visibility
3- from opened window select "Show or hide based on an expression" radio button
4- set an expression for hidden state. for example:
=IIF(Parameters!CustomerCare.Value <> "favorite value", true,false)
