CASE Statement in Where Condition with Multi Valued parameter in SSRS

Hi All,
I am little confused while using CASE statement in Where condition in SSRS. Below is my scenario:
SELECT
Logic here
WHERE
Date IN (@Date)AND
(CASE
WHEN NAME LIKE 'ABC%' THEN 'GROUP1'
WHEN ID IN ('123456', '823423','74233784') THEN 'GROUP2'
WHEN ABC_ID IS NULL THEN 'GROUP3'
ELSE 'GROUP4'
END ) IN (@GROUP)
So above query uses WHERE condition with CASE statement from @GROUP parameter. I want to pass this parameter as multi- valued parameter and hence I have used CASE statement IN (@GROUP).
For @Date one dataset will pass the available and default values and
for @GROUP parameters, another dataset will pass the available and default values.
But this is not working as expected. Please suggest me where I am making mistake in the query.

Hi Maruthu,
According to your description, I create a sample report in my local environment. It works as I expected. In your scenario, if the selected values from the Date parameter contains some of the Date field values, the selected values from the GROUP parameter
contains some of GROUPS (‘GROUP1’,’GROUP2’,’GROUP3’,’GROUP4’) and the corresponding when statement is executed , then the dataset returns the corresponding values.
In order to trouble shoot this issue, could you tell us what results are you get and what’s your desired results? If possible, you can post the sample data with sample dataset, then we can make further analysis and help you out.
Thanks,

Multi-value parameter report - error : Incorrect syntax near ',' with multi-valued parameter in SSRS

Hey,
I created a report in Reporting Services where I added multi-value parameter
( Filter). When I run my report, and try to select more than one parameter, I get an error: Incorrect syntax near ','
then i put in parameter expression : join(Parameters!Filter.Value,",")
and add : dbo.ufnSplit before calling parameter in query :
>>> set @valwhere = 'table.field IN (select * from dbo.ufnSplit(' + @Filter + ' , '',''))'
but i still have errors : incorrect syntax near 'text' which is the second value of the picklist of the parameter,
Please Any idea ?
Thanks !!

I have sometimes had to collate as default with the SQL query
currently I've just using
CompanyName in
(selectitemfromdbo.fnSplit(@function,','))
In the SSRS report text box I have Join(Parameters!Company.Value,",")

Need to display the first 5 values of a Multi value parameter in SSRS report

Hi All,
I have SSRS report with multi value parameter. I need to display the parameter selection values in a text box. I've more than 50 records in the multi value parameter list. I've included the code to display "All" if I choose "select
all" option otherwise it will show the selected values. But, I need to change the logic. I have to show only the 1st 5 records if I choose more than 5 records.
How can I implement this?
I have used the below code
=iif(
Parameters!Country.Count = Count(Fields!Country.Value,
"Country")
,"All"
,iif(Parameters!Country.Count>5
,"Display the 1st 5 values"
,Join(Parameters!Country.Value,",")
Regards,
Julie

Hi Julie,
Per my understanding that you want to always show the first values from the param country to a textbox when you have select more then five values from the dropdown list, if you checked "select all", textbox will display "All", if
you select <=5 amount of values. it will display the selected values, right?
I have tested on my local environment and that you can create an hide parameter(Param2) to display just the first five values from the Country and when you select more then five values from country you will get the Join(Parameters!Param2.Value,",")
to display.
Details information below for your reference:
Create an new DataSet2 which the Param2 will get the values from：
SELECT TOP (5) Country
FROM tablename
Create an new param2 and hide this parameter, Set the "Available values" and "Default values" by select the "Get the values from a query"(DataSet2)
You can also Specify first five value for the "Available values" and "Default values", thus you will not need to follow the step1 to create the dataset2
Modify the expression you have provided as below:
=iif(Parameters!Country.Count = Count(Fields!Country.Value, "DataSet1"),"All" ,iif(Parameters!Country.Count>5 ,Join(Parameters!Param2.Value,","),Join(Parameters!Country.Value,",")))

How to set the default selection to "Select All" in a Multi valued parameter in SSRS 2008?

Hello Everyone,
How to set the default selection to "Select All" in a Multi valued parameter in SSRS 2008?

You need to specify "Default Values" in the report parameter property. Choose similar option used in the "Available Values" option, this will allow the parameter to check "Select All".

Display Blank Tablix when using multi value parameter in SSRS 2008 R2

I have a main report which contains tablix1 and tablix2. Tablix1 is using DataSet1 and Tablix2 is using DataSet2. I have a multi value parameter set up with 71 items to choose from. My company owns 71 convenience stores and what I am doing is comparing sales
for a hard coded date in DataSet1 versus a hard coded date in DataSet2, sales for the same date 1 year ago. Pretty simple, works great when both datasets return data. However, we have a store that we opened up about 4 months ago. The data is displayed
in Tablix1, but since the store did not exist 1 year ago, there is no data for Tablix2. I have tried the "No Row Message" and Repeating Column and Row Headers, etc. When I choose all stores that existed last year, the report runs great. When I choose
a store that existed last year and our new store (#39) that did not, the report messes up. The below image, you can see Tablix1 is good, but Tablix2 should be blank and only show the column headers. Instead it moved Store #40's Tablix1 beside it. If I
run the report and just select store #39, Tablix1 runs as it should and Tablix2 shows The column headers and a blank row. It disappears as soon as I select multiple values.
When you click the next page button, you will see Store 40's Tablix2 where it's Tablix1 should be and then a blank space where Tablix2 should be.

Hi BassMan75,
According to your description, there is a main report with subreport, since the store did not exist one year ago, there is no data for the subreport. You want to show tablix grid even through there is no data in subreport, right?
Report data comes from datasets, if there is no corresponding value in the dataset, only column headers will be displayed in the report, we could not set the rows to blank, so we can’t achieve your goal directly. As a workaround, we can put one text box
in the report with the message: No data for the store. In this way, if there is no data meets search condition, the message will be displayed in the report. Please refer to the following steps:
Click and select the tablix.
In Properties window, in No Rows section, in NoRowsMessage text box, type No data for the store.
If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.

How to sort via multi value parameter in ssrs

I have a parameter with multi values. when the user selects ,he get of options like acount name, first name, last name.
so if user selects firstname , the data has to sort by firstname.
if he selects acount name , the data has to sort by account name.
please help me how to sort the data using parameter with multivalue? in ssrs 2008.
Thank you?

Hi Venku,
Based on your description, it seems that you create a parameter with available values and you want to sort the report data based on the parameter value. If the available values are the field names in the report, you can try to open the Tablix properties
dialog box and specify the sort expression on "Sorting" tab as follows:
=Fields(Parameter!parametername.value).value
If the parameter allow multiple values and you want to sort the report data by more than one field, for example, sort the report data by "accountname" and then by "firstname", please add two sort expressions as follows:
=Fields(Parameter!parametername.value(0)).value
=Fields(Parameter!parametername.value(1)).value
If you have any question, please let me know.

Multi Value Parameter in SSRS

Hi,
I have a parameter "MyTeam" (multi-select) which is a list of users.
I also have P1,P2,P3,P4,P5 as additional parameters.
My requirement is , When I select only 1 value in "MyTeam" , P1 should be filled with value selected and P2,P3,P4,P5 should contain "00-000-00".When I select 2 values in "MyTeam" , P1 & P2 should be filled with respective
values and P3,P4,P5 should contain "00-000-00".
I am using the below expression on P2,P3,P4,P5 and changing the Count accordingly, but it doesn't seem to work and I get the error below.....!!!
Example : This expression is for P2 and I am selecting only 1 value in "MyTeam".
=iif(Parameters!MyTeam.Count >= 2, Parameters!MyTeam.Value(1),"000000-00000000")
The Value expression contains an error: Index was outside the bounds of the array.
When I change my expression to =iif(Parameters!MyTeam.Count >= 2, "TRUE","FALSE")
, I get no error.
How do I resolve this..??
Thanks Uma.K

Hi kanumuri1987,
According to your description, you want to create a multivalued parameter, when you select some values from the drop-down list, other unselected values should be set to "000000-00000000".
In Reporting Services, if we have specified available values for a parameter, after processing parameter values, we can select expected values from drop-down list, at this time, those parameter values are fixed and they can’t be changed. So for your requirement,
it can’t be achieved currently.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Case statement in where clause ??

Hello gurus,
Can we use case statements in where clause ?? Any example will be great!
And also i would like to know, besides CASE and DECODE statements, Is there any way we can use IF ELSE statements in SELECT clause or in WHERE clause ?
Thank you!!

Hi,
user642297 wrote:
Hoek,
Thanks for the reply
Whatever you return from 'then' should match your criteria.I didnt get this part...can you elaborate this part ?? Thank you!!Remember what a CASE expression does: it returns a single value in one of the SQL data types (or NULL).
You're probably familiar with conditions such as
WHERE   col = 1Inthe example above, col could be replaced by any kind of expression: a function call, and operation (such as "d * 24") or a CASE expression, which is exactly what Hoek posted:
where case
         when col = 6 then 1
         when col = 9 then 1
       end = 1;I think what Hoek meant about mnatching was this: since the CASE expression is being compared to a NUMBER, then every THEN clause (as well as the ELSE, if there is one) should return the same data type. You can't have one THEN clause return a NUMBER, and another one in the same CASE expression return a DATE, like this:
where case
         when col = 6 then 1
         when col = 9 then SYSDATE     -- WRONG! Raises ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes
       end = 1;
By the way, it's rare when a CASE expression really helps in a WHERE clause. CASE is great for doing conitional stuff in places where you otherwise can't (in the ORDER BY clause, for example), but the WHERE clause was designed for conditions.
Hoek was just trying to give a simple example. If you really wanted those results, it would be simpler to say:
where col = 6
or     col = 9and simpler still to say
where col IN (6, 9)

Case statement within where clause

How can i write a case statement within Where clause of SQL statement.
Ex:
If sysdate is less than Dec 31 of 2009 then run the query for 2009 else run the query for 2010.
belwo query is not working. Please let me know how can i write a case statement within where clause.
Select * from table
where
Case
when to_char(sysdate,'yyyymmdd')<=20091231 then tax_year=2009
else tax_year=2010
End

Hi,
You can get the results you want like this:
Select *
from      table
where   tax_year = Case
                  when to_char(sysdate,'yyyymmdd') <= 20091231
                  then 2009
                  else 2010
             End
;A CASE expression returns a single value in one of the SQL data types, such as a NUMBER, VARCHAR2 or DATE. There is no boolean type in SQL.

As I understand the filter condition is not correct.
you need to make it as below for multi parameter to work correctly
CREATE TABLE #branchcodes
BranchCode varchar(50)
INSERT #branchcodes
SELECT Val
FROM dbo.ParseValues(@branch_eq_ccode_p,',')
CREATE TABLE #MASSKIBs
MASSKIB varchar(50)
INSERT #MASSKIBs
SELECT Val

How to design SSRS report to filter multi-value parameter?

I developed an RDL which takes a multivalue parameter and I want to set a visibility expression or filter based on this parameter. This parameter uses an "All" value equal to '660E4583-7F29-4D37-8038-5096AE6A1A7F'.
I want to make the main tablix visible if this parameter is set to this uniqueidentifier and invisible otherwise. How can I achieve this either in the tsql dataset or on the report side? I have tried numerous workarounds, but none have worked so far! I've tried
different expressions and datatypes.
Before I tried If/Else statements in the tsql dataset, but most recently I instead added flags to the tsql dataset for each condition and am trying to make this tablix only include the records with the flag matching the parameters chosen. But even this is not
working for me.
Here is sample data:
create table #dummydata
parameter varchar(max),
b varchar(max)
insert #dummydata values('660E4583-7F29-4D37-8038-5096AE6A1A7F','record 1'),('660E4583-7F29-4D37-8038-5096AE6A1vcd','record 2'),('660E4583-7F29-4D37-8038-5096AE6A1v52','record 3')
select * from #dummydata
And my filter expression in the RDL for this tablix is:
=iif(Parameters!Modifier.Value(0)="660E4583-7F29-4D37-8038-5096AE6A1A7F",1,0)
With datatype = integer and value = 1 However, this tablix is invisible with the above even when I choose "All" for the parameter value = default value. How can I make this tablix visible?
Ryan D

Hi Ryan D,
After testing the scenario in my local environment, everything goes well. As per my understanding, I think this issue can be caused by the Available values in the Modifier parameter. Could you tell us the Available values of Modifier parameter in your scenario?
The following scenario in my test is for your reference:
I create a dataset with the sample data you posted.
Add a multi-value parameter named Modifier in the report.
Specify the following values in the Available Values of the parameter (please note that the value “All” should be located in the first place, because we use Parameters!Modifier.Value(0) in the filter):
Label: All                 Value: ="660E4583-7F29-4D37-8038-5096AE6A1A7F"
Label: A                   Value: ="1"
Label: B                   Value: ="2"
Label: C                   Value: ="3"
Drag a table to the design surface, insert parameter and b fields in the table.
Use the same expression as you said to add a filter in the tablix.
We can refer to the following screenshot:
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.

Parameter gets reset and Multi-value parameter doesn't work

Hi
Two Issues:
I've set the value of a Date parameter (Start Date) when moving from the home screen (Report 1) to the next screen (Report 2) as the first day of the current year (DateSerial(Year(Today),1,1). In report 2, if I try to change the Start Date to another date,
it gets reset to the first day of the year. I had the default value set as the first day of the year and even after removing it, the Start Date gets reset.
I've set a multi-value parameter (Area) in Report 1 that collects four integers. I pass Area to Report 2 (through Join (Parameters!Area.value,",")). I also used SPLIT (Join (Parameters!Area.value,","),",") to get the value.
Then, in the data set, I call this parameter as "Select A1,A2,A3,B1,B2,B3 FROM TEST_VIEW WHERE ID IN (?)". But this query throws an error that the query could not be executed. I ran the same query on the server side and it runs fine.
Note:
We cannot reference parameter names as @area for example because the Composite Server doesn't allow that.
Split and Join operate on strings but my parameters are of integer type. Is this an issue?
Please help.

1. Are setting an expression for available values of parameter in report 2? Is the value you pass a valid among the set of values?
2. IN wont work with comma separated values. You need to parse the individual values out using a string parsing udf as a table and then join to that
so in your case you would be like
Select A1,A2,A3,B1,B2,B3 FROM TEST_VIEW t
INNER JOIN dbo.ParseValues (@Area,',')f
ON t.ID = f.Val
ParseValues UDF can be found in below link
