I am working in SSRS 2005.
I am trying to format numbers into two decimal places. When I add N2 in the format property of text box, all the numbers are getting two decimal values (1 will be 1.00). However, I need to format to two decimal only if it has a decimal value.
How do I achieve this? Please help..
Thanks

Try the custom format string
#.##
This should display the decimal places only if they are present

In one of my columns in SSRS, I have the expression as
=ROUND(Fields!Contribution_Margin_.Value,5) & "%"
As you can see I am hardcoding the percent symbol after rounding off the value till decimals. But the issue is that the user wants to see only 2 decimals in the SSRS report and when he export it to excel he want 5 decimals while clicking on that particular cell.
So I went into Text box properties and in the Number section, I rounded off to 2 but it is not happening as I am having the "%" symbol, in the end, so after this also it is giving me till 5 decimals in the report.
Any solution how to make it to 2 decimal places in SSRS.
Don't mix value and display - leave the value as is (instead of turning the Value property into a string with the format hard coded into it, thereby losing precision and type) and use the display properties to show that value in the precision required.
Make the cell value just be the field value: Fields!Contribution_Margin_.Value. This allows it to be exported as a number rather than text.
Set the Format property of the cell to display percentage to two decimal places: p2
When exported to Excel, the full field value will be there and the client can format it to 5 decimal places.
I am currently working on a report in SSRS 2017 and what I am trying to do is rounding to 2 decimal places when I have a number with decimals and do not show those decimals when I get a INT like
12.132 - 12.13
13 - 13
however when I add "0.00" to the format property fir thos int values I get the decimals like 13.00 and I dont want to see the zeros
any idea?
Image above, Amount column is data coming from Database, Column
Round Amount is Rounded amount and Amount Formatted is your expected Result.
How did I achieved it?
Right click the field which you want to add the format and select the "Text Box Properties"
use "#,###.##" in the format.
you can wrap your math expression with a format to achieve the decimal placing you are after.
Like this :
=format(Fields!yourfield1.value-Fields!yourfiend2.value,"0.00;(0.00)")
Need some help here. I'm trying to update a column in one of my tables to take the Spend amount from 1 column and divide it by 0.85 and display at with only 2 decimal places. I have tried the ROUND function and I am currently using the CAST function to list the field as a DECIMAL in which I've tried (38,2), (30,2), etc. and none work. Here's a copy of what I'm trying to do :
(CAST(NetMediaSpend as decimal (38,2)))/.85
and even after I run it and look at my data I still see the value stored as :
13712.941176
How do I get it to only display 2 decimals of 13712.94 ?
CAST(NetMediaSpend / .85 AS DECIMAL(38,2))
select format(NetMediaSpend/.85,2) from your_Table
I was finally able to figure out how I needed to write it:
ROUND(CAST(NetMediaSpend as DECIMAL(30,2))/.85,2)
I have a database which is an access frontend with a MySQL backend.
In MySQL I have a table with a field set at 3 decimal places (10, 3), however does anyone know how I can display this field as 1 decimal place only in the fronend access, without altering the MySQL table formatting?
In the TextBox of your Access form you should set the Format property to a numeric format and the property Decimal Places to 1. You will find these properties in the Format tabs of the property editor.
My problem is concerning a chart in reporting services.
My dataset is looking as below:
MonthDue MonthDeleviry
Jan-2011 Mars-2011
Feb-2012 Jun_2013
Aug-2016 Oct-014
I want to make a graphique MonthDue(Y-axis) /.MonthDeleviry(X-axis) the problem is that Y-axis doesen't show label of month and convert it to FirstDayMonth/MM/YYYY. It seems that this axis dont accepte String value and allow just Numeric and date Format (dd/mm/YYYY)
Excuse my bad english
Can you help please.
Thanks
If the Y axis accepts a datetime but your data is a string of the format given, you could convert that string into a datetime for the start of that month.
=cdate("1-" & Fields!MonthDue)
Use this expression in the "Value" field of the "Values" tab when you edit the data in the chart properties.
Hope that helps.
