I am creating a report where the parameter selection = customer_name and the report is one page and has 5 tablix relating to the customer. What my team would like is to be able to select more than one customer at a time to save time; however they want a separate page per customer_name. Can this be done with multi-value parameter and if so, how do I group so that the data does not comingle with each other?
Ex.
ABC Customer
RentTablix
ExpenseTablix
PAGE BREAK
EFG Customer
RentTablix
ExpenseTablix
I am over thinking this??? Please help ;-)
On the report parameter enable the multi-select option. Pass this through to your reporting procs ensuring it's handled properly (I think it's a comma seperated list). In the report add a list control and put all the tablix control into the list area. Set the grouping on the list region to be base on customer and specify a page break on change of customer in the list control.

I have a query that returns relevant data about inspectors and how long it takes them to respond to issues. The only parameters are a BeginDate and EndDate so for any given date range there could be anywhere from 0 to 100 inspectors.
I am using only one dataset and it contains an "Inspector" field that I'm hoping can be used as a filter to create as many tables as there are inspectors.
I know you can set filters on tables but from my (limited) SSRS knowledge, you must already have the tables created and the filters are typically hard-coded. What I need, is some way for the report to see how many Inspectors there are in the dataset and group those records into their own tables, repeating the same one created tablix over and over as needed.
This is being done strictly in SSRS 2012, not using a ReportViewer where back-end code could help me out unfortunately...
I don't have any code examples to provide, like I said I know you can do filtering but I am at a loss when it comes to doing something like this dynamically based on data... Sorry.
Depending on the report design you could either...
Single report with grouping
1. Create a single tablix.
2. Create a row group by Inspector and then add whatever fields you need to the details section.
3. You can optionally set page breaks between instances of your Inspector rowgroup from the rowgroup properties.
Sub report method
1. Create a subreport that accepts a parameter (InspectorID for example).
2. In the subreport filter the dataset using the parameter passed in so it only return data for a single inspector.
3. Add whatever controls you need to the report to handle a single Inspector
4. Create a main report
5. Add a dataset that gives you a simple distinct list of Inspectors, this will be used to pass parameters to the subreport.
Lets assume it just contains a list of InspectorIDs.
6. Add a list control to the report and set it's dataset property to the dataset that contains your list of InspectorIDs
7. Right-click in the list control's 'cell' and insert a subreport.
8. Set the subreport property to the subreport you created earlier and set that parmameter IsnpectorID to your InpsectorID field.
This will produce a subreport for each instance of inspector it finds.
Sorry about the format of this answer, in a rush!
I need to create student certificate using SSRS. I created new .rdl file did designed and associated with data source.
It works for single student as expected. But it does not creates report with multiple certificate while my data source returns multiple student details.
I am new for SSRS, please help me out to achieve this.
If you want to generate a certificate for each row of your dataset in the same report, you can do this with a tablix:
Add a Tablix to you your report that lists your dataset data
Drag a Rectangle into one of the Details row cells
Make the cell you dragged the Rectangle into large enough to hold all your
certificate report items
Select all your certificate items and move them into the Rectangle
Update any references to your dataset to not include a 'scope'
ie: Change =sum(Fields!ColName.Value, "Your Dataset") to =sum(Fields!ColName.Value)
Run the report
You should now have a certificate for each row in your dataset.
If you want to export multiple separate certificates, you will need to set up a data driven subscription on your report, that runs it once for each row of a returned dataset. Obviously you will need to adjust your report to be able to receive which student to generate the certificate for as a parameter.
Another way is.. if your data set is returning one row per student, then all you need to do you on your tablix is to add a parent row group.. group on StudentID.. or something unique per record.. go to group properties and add a page break at end of group. This should generate one certificate page per student..
You may need to adjust group headings and footer and things like that appear.. You will figure it out... alternatively.. watch a youtube video on how to do a basic ssrs report.
I have a subreport call StudentSub.rdl. This is linked with DataSet (stored procedure) Sp_GetStudentName(#ClassNo int). This works fine it gives always only one certificate.
Since I wanted to generate class wise certifiacte, in that case I wanted to get muliple report page wise in one PDF file. Followed below steps:
Created new RDL file called StudentReports.rdl
Linked with same data set stored procedure Sp_GetStudentName.
Drag a table from tool box to design body.
Set visibility False for table Header and some columns except one td.
Right clicked in that box (td) and inserted sub report
Right clicked sub report properties selected StudentSub subreport.
In the sub report properties added parameter ClassNo then clicked Ok.
Now When I am previewing this StudentReports by passing class no. I am getting correct number of pages.
Hope this will help others.
Thanks!
Let's say I have the following data:
In my SSRS report I have a parameter that prompts for MainID.
Now If I put MainID as 1, I should get one report. If I put MainID as 6, I should get 3 reports. Is there a way I can generate these reports dynamically using SSRS? Thanks.
I would approach this by creating a report that uses a List control, and has a page break between each item that you use to group by within that List. One report, a different page for each item of interest, SubID in this case.
Create a new report with an empty body.
Add the Data Source(s), Parameter(s), and Dataset(s) that are needed.
Add a List object to the body. Drag and drop it into the body from the Toolbox.
Set the Dataset for the list to the one you are using to return the data you have listed in your question.
In the Row Groups pane of the Visual Studio report designer, right click on the Details row, and choose Group Properties. On the General page, click the Add button under Group expressions, choose SubID from the Group on dropdown.
While in the same dialog, go to the Page Breaks page and check the Between each instance of a group option. Click OK.
Add a Tablix inside the List. This is what will show your data.
Add some fields to the Tablix. Add Detail and Notes, for no good reason on my part.
Run the report. If you have setup the data source and data set to properly run and filter base on your parameters, you should see something. Maybe an empty report.
Now (based on the data you provided), if you choose 1 for your MainID parameter, the report will display one page, but if you choose 6, you will get 3 page3, or however many records there are related to the parameter value for MainID in the database.
One report, multiple pages depending on the parameter/data. It's not a 3 different reports solutions, but something that could work for your situation.
I am trying to add a drill though from my main SSRS report into a detail report and cannot figure out how to pass multiple values. The report looks something like this...
Loc Tech #ofCalls
1 Bill 23
1 Jim 20
The # of calls is a count of the individual call records. I want to provide a drill through into a report I have that displays the details of each of the calls. I need to pass the multiple CallId's for that technician and location into the subreport when the user clicks on the # of calls. How can I achieve this?
Drill through reports and subreports aren't the same thing. Subreports get the data at the same time as the main report, while a drill through report links to a completely separate report once the user clicks a link, button or image, and retrieves the data.
It sounds like a better approach, would be to create a separate report, that would accept perhaps a Loc and Tech parameter, and returns all of the details(calls) based on those parameters. Basically what you have in your main report, but rather than doing a COUNT on the #calls, simply return the details.
Then in the main report:
Right click on the textbox, or link for #of Calls
Go to Properties, then Actions
Under enable as Actions, select "Go to report"
In the Specify Report drop, select your newly created call detail report.
Under the parameters section, add possibly the fields from your main report as Parameters, Loc and Tech.
I have a SSRS report having a table based on multiple value parameters. For the parameter values I have a list of Partner IDs. I would like to export the report to a pdf and print it so that each Partner ID starts from a new page.
After adding the multiple value parameter, my report is displaying data for each Partner ID but they get nested under one another.
Any suggestions? Please help.
Thanks in advance.
Insert LIST.
Past your report in LIST.
Go to rows group properties for LIST.
click Page Breaks then tick the box "Between Each instance Of The Group"
- should be sorted.
