I have a SSRS report which is the snapshot or another report. It runs every day # 6 am. I want to add a header at the top of the report(snapshot), which indicates when the snapshot was taken so that the user knows when the snapshot was taken.
Does anyone know how can i do that?
if I truly understand your question :
you can add date or time of report processing by adding a textbox on header and write this expression as its value :
=TimeOfDay()
or
=Now()
Ususally you would use Globals!ExecutionTime to display this, but from my research, headers and footers are calculated when the report is rendered. A work around for this is to place the textbox (make it hidden) with Globals!ExecutionTime in it on the report body and then place another textbox in the header or footer which references that textbox like this: ReportItems!ReportBodyTextBoxName.Value.

The best way for me was to add an extra column to my dataset. e.g.:
SELECT COL1
,COL2
,...
,COLn
,SYSDATE AS EXEC_DAT
FROM ...
You can then use First(Fields!EXEC_DAT.Value, "DATASET_NAME") if the expression is in the header.
PS: SYSDATE works for Oracle, you'll have to determine the correct function for your RDBMS

I must finish my report.
I put subTablix in my main Tablix，I want the subTablix header repeat once
But I don't know how to do it, please help me, thanks.
Before I run the report:

After I run the report:
https://i.stack.imgur.com/g448K.png
I wish my report become:
https://i.stack.imgur.com/LePKc.png
You need to group by the field which contains the subTablix header. The details row will then be the rows below that.
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)
It took me hours of searching and putting together piecemeal parts to find the solution to this, so I figured I'd post it on here in the hopes of helping someone else.
The Problem: We need to display a report, with proper grouping and drilldowns. However, we should only allow one group to be drilled down at one time.
SSRS doesn't exactly have robust scripting options - for instance, you can't close other groups "on click" or anything like that. So how do you do it?
In My example i'm using the AdventureworksDW database. I want to have a dataset that includes the total sales for each group and region. My Stored Procedure looks something like this:
SELECT dst.SalesTerritoryGroup,
dst.SalesTerritoryRegion,
SUM(fis.SalesAmount) AS SaleTotal,
DATEPART(YEAR,fis.OrderDate) AS OrderYear
FROM [dbo].FactInternetSales AS fis
INNER JOIN [dbo].DimSalesTerritory AS dst
ON fis.SalesTerritoryKey = dst.SalesTerritoryKey
WHERE fis.OrderDate < #QueryEndDate
GROUP BY
dst.SalesTerritoryGroup,
dst.SalesTerritoryRegion,
DATEPART(YEAR,fis.OrderDate)
UNION ALL /*The ResellerSales table. Same info.*/
From there I added a table with two groups: SalesTerritoryRegion and its parent, SalesTerritoryGroup. I also added a column to the left INSIDE the SalesTerritoryGroup, with an X (this can also be an image if you'd like). This is the "Drilldown" button that we'll use.
Create a string parameter, mine was #ExpandedGroup. Set the Default to an empty string (so that all the groups start out collapsed). Right click on the SalesTerritoryRegion group, or whatever your subgroup is, and go to the visibility tab. Click "Show or Hide based on Expression" and enter something like this:
=iif(Parameters!ExpandedGroup.Value="" or
Fields!SalesTerritoryGroup.Value<>Parameters!ExpandedGroup.Value,True,False)
This statement means: If we haven't opened a dropdown, or if the dropdown isn't the one selected, set hidden to true. Otherwise, false.
Next click on your "X" column to the left of SalesTerritoryGroup or your supergroup. Right click to go to Textbox Properties. Click the action tab. From there select "Go to Report". When you specify a report, make the target itself (For instance, mine is Main). Then, add parameters to the report.
The most important here is ExpandedGroup. The name should be ExpandedGroup, but the value is not just [ExpandedGroup]. Instead, it's an expression:
=IIF(Fields!SalesTerritoryGroup.Value=Parameters!ExpandedGroup.Value,
"",
Fields!SalesTerritoryGroup.Value)
This expression says: If the Group is the same as the Expanded group, make ExpandedGroup an empty string when you load the report. Otherwise, send the TerritoryGroup value. Essentially, this will let us toggle on and off the drilldown (same as you would in the report if you had traditional drilldowns).
Note: Also be sure to pass other parameters! For instance, my query requires a date to exclude some transaction data. If you don't pass this parameter in the "Go to Report" action, then you'll have to enter it again when you DrillDown. This also means you can give yourself even more flexibility when you click a drilldown (changing a chart that's displayed etc.) which is what I'm doing for this project.
Hope it helps someone out! Of course, if there is a more elegant or simpler solution I'd absolutely love to hear it.
I want to display page wise sum of 2 columns in footer.for that I am using following expression in footer
=Sum(ReportItems!col1.Value) + Sum(ReportItems!col2.Value)
but it gives following error
"The Value expression for the textrun refers to more than one report item. An expression in a page header or footer can refer to only one report item."
anybody knows how can I solve this issue and display page wise sum in footer ?
Thanks
Here is simple workaround for your problem:
Add single textbox to the body of the report and name it i.e. "SUM"
Add your expression to this textbox =ReportItems!col1.Value + ReportItems!col2.Value
For this textbox set visibility as hidden
In the footer refer to this hidden textbox using =ReportItems!SUM.Value
I usually use Custom code-feature of report for these operations. Just open Report Properties and choose Code-view. Just then write basic VB get/set-methods to save and sum values.
Referring to methods in TextBox expression goes just like this: =Code.[YourMethodNameHere].
For example, saving value:
=Code.SaveMyValue(Fields!MyVal.Value)
and getting value:
=Code.GetMyValue()
I am stuck in developing my report. Can someone please help me ?
Apparently, I have problem with the COLUMN TOGGLE ITEM.
My original report design is like this:
(Original here)
However, when I click on the toggle item (TEXTBOX 1), my report looks like this (which I think is wrong):
(Original here)
MY PROBLEM IS: when all the textbox is OPEN and I click on the TEXTBOX
1, not all the textbox under TEXTBOX 1 is CLOSE.
I wish to make my report look like this when the TEXTBOX 1 is pressed (close all the textbox under TEXTBOX1):
(Original here)
I hope I make myself clear. I desperately need help here.
Dont worry about my ROW DATA. (It works fine)
Thanks in advance...
Ok I Understand Your Problem,In SSRS 2008 R2 you take for this MATRIX item then you place the all the values in that matrix,then next you go to GROUPing pane then group the data by column wise and row wise
then next taggeled the values in grouping pane
--->meance---->goto grouping pane--->rightclick on CHILD group----properties---->visibulity----->check the hidden---->and finally give the taggeled value
then it will works like tyou want
