SSRS typical Matrix Report - reporting-services

I got a typical matrix report requirement from my client. I need your suggestions/ideas.
I have a table named Inventory (see the Image 'table')
I need the following format in the SSRS REPORT
(See the image 'SSRS REPORT')
I tried to do it by using matrix report by grouping only the column with bucket, but it is showing me only one row. Not used grouping for partyname, region, bill_to_country.
Please advise!!

Try using party_name, region, bill_to_country plus bucket in row group

I resolved this by using SQL SERVER PIVOT relational operator.
Instead of grouping in the SSRS report, i thought of implementing rotation logic(converting row values to column names) from SQL query and it worked like charm!!

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.

How to fetch data in a Single SSRS report using Multiple Dataset

I was trying to create SSRS report with a country map and a table. Country Map for showing total Number of Cases state wise and a table to show the total number of Cases in the whole country on the Top Middle side of the Report. Both (Map and Table) Using Different Datasets.
When I run the report to preview the data, It gives me an error:
The Endvalue expression for the map uses an aggregate expression without a scope. A Scope is required for all the aggregates used outside of a Data region
However, I have also tried to use the first dataset to calculate the Sum of all cases in the country.
But it shows the data in the table state wise not the Complete Sum.
=Sum(Fields!Total_Cases.Value)
I have read some issue similar to this topic but unable to implement them.
For displaying total cases in the table I have also mention the dataset name but not getting result.
=(Fields!Total_Cases.Value, "Dataset2")
Please suggest the correct way..

sorting a table with an aggregiate function in ssrs 2008

I have a SSRS 2008 matrix with a column Point = max(point). I would like to make the table sort by Point column, and writing max(point) as an expression in tablix properties -> Sorting. But SSRS doesnt let me and warning me like: it is not allowed to use aggregiate functions while sorting. What can I do to fix it. Thanks.
You can sort aggregates on your Row or Column Group but not a table.

Reporting services, sum all rows of a column

I'm using reporting services 2005, I have a report with a table(table1) which displays data from an sql database.
A column on the table displays numbers. I want the total of all rows for that column, on a textbox(textbox3)
of another table(lets call it table2).
I tried placing this on a table2 textbox: =Sum(ReportItems!textbox1.Value)
texbox1 is the one from the table1. But when going to the Preview tab i get:
Error 2 [rsAggregateReportItemInBody] The Value expression for the textbox 'textbox3' uses an aggregate function on a report item. Aggregate functions can be used only on report items contained in page headers and footers.
How can I solve this?
Thanks.
You've got a couple of options.
The first is to use an expression similar to the following in the Textbox:
=Sum(Fields!value.Value, "Values")
Where Values is the name of the DataSet you want to aggregate.
Here you're creating an aggregate expression and specifying the scope where it executes, in this case a DataSet, i.e. aggregate all values in the DataSet.
As you can see from the error you're getting you can reference a report item with an aggregate, but if you're displaying the aggregate in the table header or footer you can reference that Textbox.
Here's a simple report showing both methods:
Hopefully you can adapt one method to your report.

Get Row Count in SSRS Report Builder

I have built a report using Report Builder 3.0 (that uses SQL Server 2008 R2). Now i wish to now how many records are being fetched from database to the report?
This is possible either by count function in SSRS or by using RANK/ROW_NUMBER function in SQL Query and assigning that as field to the report (RANK/ROW_NUMBER would give us rank to each row and navigating to last page in report would help me getting the total row count).
I tried count function but that counts on some field in the report. For instance = Count(Field!FieldName.value, "DataSetName") Problem in this approach: "FieldName" is not unique in the report and hence the counts get repetitive
Second option: Added Rank/Row_Number but they too use the same kind of fieldName and hence here too the counts get duplicated.
Main Problem: There is no field in my query that is unique (and hence i tried ROW_NUMBER())
How can i find the total row count or rank (for each row) in SSRS 2008?
Use the CountRows function. For example
=CountRows("MyDataset")
will give you the number of rows in MyDataSet.
As someone else mentioned above, I couldn't get CountRows("DatasetName") to work in the header until I wrapped it thusly:CSTR(CountRows("DatasetName")).
In the Tablix control's properties, there's a property name called NoRowsMessage put your message here when no row is returned.
you can't put aggregation values into the detail wihtout grouping.
Solution is below:
=Count(Fields!rn.Value)
I use it inside the column/header row.
I found a workaround for this. First create a data column with the value always set to 1. This will provide a value of one for each row of data.
Query Column
, 1 AS Unit
Use the "RunningValue" function into your report as shown below.
=RunningValue(Fields!Unit.Value,Sum,"DataSet")
This will also work as a 'running sum' if that's something you're looking for.
