Is there a way to remove and then recreate row groups? We have a report that is believed to be "corrupt" (because we've upgraded from SSRS 2008 to R2). From what we've researched, recreating the row groups might fix it for us.
I've found these links:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms170712.aspx
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd255263.aspx
but I can't seem to create groups without extra rows/columns being created that are not needed for the report.
After a long couple of weeks trying to solve the problem within the .rdl files, we opened a ticket with Microsoft.
A work-around was provided to us in that; We could remove a row from multiple groups by right clicking that row > Insert Row > Outside Group - Above.
This effectively creates a duplicate row outside of one of the groups. We then followed the steps above on the newly created row.In turn we created 4 duplicate rows (each in one less group then the previous row), and kept the last created row which wasn't in any groups!

Here I am using SSRS version Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services Version 12.0.5207.0
Created a simple SSRS report with single table. The Report is having 5 columns and 1 row without any grouping.
When I am exporting it in excel format, I get the last row merging issue. Its random occurrence doesn't know the reason why it is happening.
Please check the snapshot for more details (Red circle). Row no 299 is merged.
#user2269520 this is what I was referring to. Even if you have no header or footer, the divider is still there and if not flush, it sometimes adds a margin to the bottom of the table. It may not be your situation but it is just a thought.
You will get the merging issue when export excel, If any space/gap between tablix and report body,report footer or any controls.
I have a report that pulls in a sub report and is run from within a single record on Dynamics CRM 2011. The report is built in SSRS 2008. It uses a parameter to find the id of the current record. The report runs fine from within each record which is what we need it to do.
There is now a requirement to also run the same report for multiple records, in essence printing out the results 1 record per page for multiple records.
I have tried to copy the report and sub report (making the relevant changes), find the multiple records list in an advanced find view, and then run the report on all the selected records in the view but instead of pulling the details for each record onto a single page and then the next record onto the next page, this method pulls all results for each field from all records and then all the results from all records into the next field.
I am assuming that the parameter that is in the original version single report to find the current record, when used with the advanced find list is pulling all of the id's for all of the records and then producing all of the results per field.
I have gone around in circles trying multiple ways of ending up with a report per record per page but I now need some help. If I remove the current id parameter I cannot work out how the report would pull the correct information together for each single record and the matching sub-report before moving onto the next record.
Is it possible to batch print a single report on multiple records selected from an advanced find view? and if so please could someone point me in the right direction.
I'm not sure how you're report is set up but you'll probably want to use a list to separate each instance of the report. Set it to Group by your ID field.
Then you put your current report items that you want generated for each item inside the list. The list will generate an instance for each ID.
It's a bit complicated sounding at first but not too difficult once you get the idea.
MSDN - Lists
SSRS generate same report for multiple values accepted as parameters
The list is like a rectangle that repeats.
I have a bear of a problem here. The user wants a report that shows the earnings, deductions and liabilities (EDL) code of each employee or null/blank if an EDL code doesn't apply to that employee. I needed one row for each employee name and columns for each possible EDL code combination. I got that answer fixed from my previous question here:
Struggling with a dynamic pivot on multiple columns with one being concatenated
I ran into a problem where there are a potential 270 column headings (EDL code combination with "subj", "elig" or "amt" appended) but not every employee will have a value for every column and security settings lock me out of seeing 1 of the 3 payroll groups. This made my report very limited in that when I ran it I could only show on the Crystal Report the data for what columns I had at the time I created the Crystal Report. Well, the user who requested this report has access to payroll group 1 and if even one of those employees had an EDL code that I didn't have in my data when I created the Crystal Reports file then the report wasn't useful to the user. We figured a way for her to get the info she needed by her logging into SQL Server and executing the stored procedure and she did what she needed to do with the data.
Fast forwarding to today I have to create this as a report in SSRS or give detailed instructions on how she can do this in the future if need be since my contract is coming to an end. I'm not familiar with SSRS but I thought maybe that would meet her needs over Crystal Reports. However, I'm running into the same problem. When I add the stored procedure as a dataset (adding it in as text to execute, not clicking the stored procedure radio button) I only see the EDL codes from that particular query not all potential combinations. I need a way to maybe dynamically add columns to the SSRS report, does such a thing exist?
I cannot believe that I am asking this question. It seems like it should be so simple. I have already spent a bunch of time online looking for the answer.
I am using Visual Studio 2012 to develop an SSRS report.
All I need to do is remove a total row from a tablix. Essentially I want to reverse what this guidance from MSDN shows on how to add a total row. I can remove the content from the row easily enough, but now I have a empty row. I don't want an empty row. (Notice the blank row to the right of the CR group label.)
Here's how I created the total row.
Ok, so this was fairly simple. Must have been a brain cramp ! Basically in design view on the report, you just need to select the cells that were added by the Add Total (which is NOT the entire row) and then right click and choose Delete Rows
I am using SSRS 2008 and I created a tablix with several groupings. However, I see now that my latest grouping is below the details. This was a mistake because I should have all groupings in my tablix preceding my details group. All of my groups are adjacent to each other. How to reposition this group so that it precedes details group instead?
Separate note: is there a way to merge cells for a range of rows? I only know how to merge cell one row at a time! And is there a way to copy n rows? Or do I have to copy one row at a time?
Yes, the row group is actually below the Details group. See attached images.
[Essentially deleting previous post on this. It was based on a bad assumption.]
I would insert a new group where appropriate, then delete cells and columns as appropriate to get the rows for the two groups to match in number: then you can copy and paste the cells (many at once) from the old group to the new.
Make sure that your grouping formulas or fields match and then delete the old group.
(You probably already discovered this, but a clean easy way to create groups is by dragging fields from "Report Data" to the "Row Groups" subwindow: this method will refuse to create a group below details.)
I think the only alternative is to edit the XML and that is dangerous: be careful and keep old versions to revert if needed.
