Expressions in SSRS

Experts,
I have two datasets in SSRS. There is a column in each of the two datasets where I want to get the sum of this column in each sets to be obtained and again the two sums be summed up again.
So, like SUM(sum(column), Dataset1) + sum(column), Dataset2)) ...... I want to keep the resulting value in a cell.
Cheers
ebro

Hi ebrolove,
According to your description, you want to get a sum value of a column from two datasets and sum these two values into a cell. Right?
In Reporting Services, when we use aggregation functions, we can specify the scope in the function, the scope should be group or dataset. So in this scenario, we just need to specify the dataset as scope in each sum function. Put the expression below into
the textbox:
=sum(Fields!column.Value,"DataSet1")+sum(Fields!column.Value,"DataSet2")
Reference:
Sum Function (Report Builder and SSRS)
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Using an expression in SSRS to display rolling 12 month and year to date volumes

I need some help in writing an expression in SSRS. I have a table that contains date columns and rows that contain different types of data groups. (e.g. total number of items received during the month, total dollars for the month, etc.) I want to add two
new columns to the end of the report that will display a rolling twelve month total for each of the different rows of data. Plus a column that would show year to date totals for the same rows.
I was thinking I could accomplish this by adding expressions for each row in the new 'rolling twelve month' and 'YTD' columns in my report however, I'm not sure how to structure the expressions to achieve this.
Here is an example of how my report currently looks. (I added a pipe delimeter in case the formatting changes once this is submitted.)
                         Jan-2014 | Feb-2014 | Mar-2014 | Apr-2014 | Rolling 12 mth | YTD
Items received     100 | 35 | 45 | 12 | 192 | 192
Dollars                $50.00 | $25.00 | $120.00 | $15.00 | $210.00 | $210.00
Any guidance you can provide would be appreciated.
Thank you

This example shows how to get what you need. It'll take modifying your query to add two cased columns onto the end.
DECLARE @forumTable TABLE (periodYear INT, periodMonth INT, periodMonthName VARCHAR(12), periodDollars MONEY, periodItems INT)
DECLARE @i INT = 0
SET NOCOUNT ON
WHILE @i < 24
BEGIN
INSERT INTO @forumTable (periodYear, periodMonth, periodMonthName, periodDollars, periodItems)
VALUES (YEAR(DATEADD(MONTH,-@i,GETDATE())), Month(DATEADD(MONTH,-@i,GETDATE())), DATENAME(MONTH,DATEADD(MONTH,-@i,GETDATE())), 1000-@i, 100-@i)
SET @i = @i+1
END
SET NOCOUNT OFF
SELECT *,
CASE WHEN CONVERT(VARCHAR,periodYear) + '-' + CONVERT(VARCHAR,periodMonth) + '-01' > DATEADD(MONTH,-12,GETDATE()) THEN periodItems ELSE 0 END AS ytdItems,
CASE WHEN CONVERT(VARCHAR,periodYear) + '-' + CONVERT(VARCHAR,periodMonth) + '-01' > DATEADD(MONTH,-12,GETDATE()) THEN periodDollars ELSE 0 END AS ytdDollars
FROM @forumTable

How to use string as an expression in SSRS reports

Hello all,
I have created a SSRS report in which I have used a tablix and a single dataset (ds_test)
Now the dataset use t-sql and is calling a table in which has data as shown below:
What I am trying to do is to use this as an expression inside the cell of the tablix. But when I run the report It give me:
But It should show the result as "True", I know it is taking this as a string but is there any way so that we can use this as an expression in the report
NOTE: We cannot use this directly in report , because this is generated dynamically and should always present in DB tables only
Thanks in advance
Pankaj Kumar Yadav-

So your table has a varchar column with 'iif(1=1,True,False)' in one of the records ?
yes
Pankaj Kumar Yadav-
You wont be able to pass a value from db like this and use this as an expression inside SSRS.
If you're using SQL 2012 you can exec this expression using dynamic sql and then show return value as is in a SSRS report.
SSRS is a presentation tool with limited scripts and it cant do any query processing against database. that part have to be implemented using t-sql query on backend (dataset)

Expression In SSRS 2008

Hi...
I am stuck with expression in SSRS. am writing this in expession :
=IIF(Parameters!Month.Value = "1", MonthName(Parameters!Month.Value + 11),
MonthName(Parameters!Month.Value)
when i run this expression and value = 1 (mean true) then it run properly and show result "December"
but when value <> 1 (mean false) then it retruns error message "Error"
further if i write like this :
=IIF(Parameters!Month.Value = "1", MonthName(Parameters!Month.Value + 11),
MonthName(Parameters!Month.Value - 1)
both true and false return "Error"
what am doing wrong
Please help... Urgent
thanks

So you show year in a different parameter? Assuming you've parameter named Year then it would be this
=Parameters!Year.Value + (((Parameters!Month.Value-1)+11) / 12 )

Can I add a datetime filter to an expression in SSRS

I am using SSRS to create a tablix that displays weekly, monthly and yearly values. My query contains data for the entire year. I would like to avoid creating 3 Datasets and then displaying three tables together (which I have already tried and did not like
because occasionally the current week or month does not have the same number of rows in the Tablix. )
I am trying to create an expression that shows the Sum of the values
Sum(Fields!Sale.Value)
when the sales are equal to the current week, month or year
DATEPART(wk, sale_date) IN (DATEPART(wk, @week)
DATEPART(month, sale_date) IN (DATEPART(month, @week)
DATEPART (year, sale_date) IN (DATEPART(year, @week)
Any ideas?

Hi PrandyJosselyn,
Per my understanding that you have an date field in table(Sale_date) and you want need to calculate the week sales, month sales, year sales based on this date, you need to filter the data of the yearly, monthly, weekly to display in the report based on the
filter, right?
I have testedon my local environment and you can modify the query in the main dataset as below to get add the week number, month number, year number if they didn't exists in the db, create three cacading parameter to display the values of "Year Number","Month
Number","Week Number".
Details steps below for your reference:
1.Modify the query in the main dataset as below to add the filter of the three parameters:
SELECT Sale, Sale_Date, DATEPART(wk, Sale_Date) AS weeknum,DATEPART(month, Sale_Date) as monnum,DATEPART (year, Sale_Date) as yearnum
FROM   tablename
where DATEPART(year, Sale_Date) =(@YearNum) and DATEPART(month, Sale_Date) =(@MonNum) and DATEPART(wk, Sale_Date) =(@WeekNum)
2.Create and new DateSet2 and create Parameter1(YearNum) which get the values from this dataset and use this expression:
SELECT     DATEPART(year, Sale_Date) AS YearNum
FROM         TableName
3.Create and new DateSet2and create the Parameter2(MonthNum) get the values from this dataset and use this expression:
SELECT    Distinct DATEPART(month, Sale_Date) AS MonthNum
FROM         TableName
where   (DATEPART(year, Sale_Date) = @YearNum)
4.Create and new DateSet3 and create the Parameter3(WeekNum) get the values from this dataset and use this expression:
SELECT    Distinct DATEPART(wk, Sale_Date) AS WeekNum
FROM         TableName
where   (DATEPART(year, Sale_Date) = @YearNum) and (DATEPART(month, Sale_Date) = @MonthNum)
5.Design the report to add group for the year and month:
If you still have problem, please provide the sample data of the table in DB and the snapshot of the report structure you have designed.
Any problem, please feel free to ask.

Column Visibility Expression help - SSRS

I have a report in SSRS that has 12 columns. On each column, I have a corresponding column visibility expression like so:
=IIF(InStr(JOIN(Parameters!HideColumns.Value,
","),"01")=0, False, True)
Where I have the "01" I change to "02","03","04","05","06","07","08","09","10","11"
& "12" respectfully across my column. The intent is to pass a parameter and allow the end user to "Hide" the column from visibility to allow them the flexibility on printing records. The issue I am having is I need a default that allows
them to not hide anything, meaning print all 12 columns. Right now, its forcing me to pick one column to hide, is there something I could add to this to say, All? Hope this makes sense.

Hi,
For default value of this parameter(Parameters!HideColumns.Value)
add a value that is not in 01 to 12 .
As an example if you add 13 to the default value of the parameter, than your expression will not hide the column
=IIF(InStr("13",
","),"01")=0, False, True)
=IIF(InStr("13",
","),"02")=0, False, True) and so on.
Many Thanks
Chandra

Date Expression in SSRS

I have a query in MS SQL database which i want to create a report with that but the report should use a date chosen by the user. Now my problem is when the user chooses today's date, I want the query to select yesterday date and match it with date from the
query and display the result.
I want these date form like, if user chooses today, I need
Yesterday date,
two days ago date,
one month ago date,
two months ago date,
one year ago date, and
two years ago date
all from the single selection of today's date

you can do it via SSRS expression or using t-sql
in t-sql you can do it like this
DECLARE @dt datetime
SET @dt = GETDATE() -- your passed date
SELECT DATEADD(dd,DATEDIFF(dd,0,GETDATE()),-1) AS YesterdayDate,
DATEADD(dd,DATEDIFF(dd,0,GETDATE()),-2) AS TwoDayAgoDate,
DATEADD(mm,DATEDIFF(mm,0,GETDATE())-1,DAY(GETDATE())-1) AS OneMonthAgoDate,
DATEADD(mm,DATEDIFF(mm,0,GETDATE())-2,DAY(GETDATE())-1) AS TwoMonthAgoDate,
DATEADD(mm,DATEDIFF(mm,0,GETDATE())-12,DAY(GETDATE())-1) AS OneYrAgoDate,
DATEADD(mm,DATEDIFF(mm,0,GETDATE())-24,DAY(GETDATE())-1) AS TwoYrAgoDate
In SSRS you can use expression like below
Yesterdays date
=DateSerial(Year(Parameters!DateParam.Value),Month(Parameters!DateParam.Value),Day(Parameters!DateParam.Value)-1)
two days ago
=DateSerial(Year(Parameters!DateParam.Value),Month(Parameters!DateParam.Value),Day(Parameters!DateParam.Value)-2)
One month ago
=DateSerial(Year(Parameters!DateParam.Value),Month(Parameters!DateParam.Value)-1,Day(Parameters!DateParam.Value))
two month ago
=DateSerial(Year(Parameters!DateParam.Value),Month(Parameters!DateParam.Value)-2,Day(Parameters!DateParam.Value))
one year ago
=DateSerial(Year(Parameters!DateParam.Value)-1,Month(Parameters!DateParam.Value),Day(Parameters!DateParam.Value))
two year ago
=DateSerial(Year(Parameters!DateParam.Value)-2,Month(Parameters!DateParam.Value),Day(Parameters!DateParam.Value))

How to give specific default date with expression in SSRS

Hi,
I have to pass some specific kind of dates in "Default Values" section of parameter.
1st is whenever SSRS report run for any year in default date I want to pass value 1/1/(Current Year), for this I tried many way like , = "1/1/" + DatePart("Y",Now()) also = "1/1/" + Year(Now()) but it
is giving me error. When I tried both part individually "1/1/" and DatePart("Y",Now()) , it is working but when I join them with + sign it is giving me error that "input string is not in correct format"
2nd I want to set up like when package run in month of April, it takes default date as "(Previous Month, which is May)/1/(current Year)" so if I am running report on 4/5/2013 then it in default date it should take 3/1/2013.
Please help me with the expression. Thanks in advance.
Vicky

Hi Visakh,
Thanks again.
I have one more question, I also have start date and end date. In start date I can put your expression as you gave me as below,
=DateAdd(DateInterval.Month,DateDiff(DateInterval.Month,CDate("01/01/1900"),Now())-1,CDate("01/01/1900"))
But can you please help me with End date expression?
In End date I want to put previous month's last date. For example, if active batch is running package on
12/16/2013 then for End Date parameter it should value "11/30/2013"
For 1/16/2014 then for End Date parameter it should value "12/31/2013"
For 3/16/2013 then for End Date parameter it should value "2/28/2013"
Thanks for your help in advance.

Expression in SSRS Slowing down Report Rendering

An expression in my report is making the report to run very slowly. The
expression, set in a Row Column Visibility Property is like so:
=IIF(Parameters!View.Value = 1 AND (Fields!PastVal.Value = 0)AND(Fields!DatePay.Value = 0) AND
(Fields!Line.Value = 0),True, IIF(Parameters!View.Value = 2 AND Fields!TaxPaid.Value = "N",True, False))
Now this expression returns the right result. The problem is that it makes the report run very slow. To test it, I took off the expression and reports are displayed in less than 3 seconds but with the expression on, report takes over 50 seconds to run.
Any help on this? Thanks.
Zionlite

Hi Zionlite,
After creation of that column just go to the row visibility property and use newly created calculated column directly as shown in below screen.
I kept both tablix one is normal having expression in visibilty condition and another with calculated columnto verify the result. when I run the report result is like below:-
I also attached the code for reference.

Convert String to Date and Format the Date Expression in SSRS

Hi,
I have a parameter used to select a month and year string that looks like:    jun-2013
I can convert it to a date, but what I want to do is, when a user selects a particular month-year  (let's say "jun-2013")
I populate one text box with the date the user selected , and (the challenge Im having is) I want to populate a text box next to the first text box with the month-year 2 months ahead.    So if the user selects
jun-2013   textbox A will show jun-2013
and textbox B will show aug-2013..
I have tried:
=Format(Format(CDate(Parameters!month.Value ),
"MM-YYYY" )+ 2 )   -- But this gives an error
This returns the month in number format   like "8"    for august...
=Format(Format(CDate(Parameters!month.Value ),
"MM" )+ 2 )
What is the proper syntax to give me the result    in this format = "aug-2013" ???
Thanks in advance.

You can convert a string that represents a date to a date object using the util.scand JavaScript method, and then format a date object to a string representation using the util.printd method. For more information, see:

http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.1251.html
In your case, the code would be something like:
var sDate = "2013-01-10";
// Convert string to date
var oDate = util.scand("yyyy-mm-dd", sDate);
// Convert date to new string
var sDate2 = util.printd("mm/dd/yyyy", oDate);
// Set a field value
getField("date2").value = sDate2;
The exact code you'd use depends on where you place the script and where you're getting the original date string, but this should get you started.

SSRS expression sum question

I want to add a column after Total lets say..'Progress' where Progress = sum(Actual)/sum(Budget)
The only filter on Progress is to consider only those values from months where both Actual and Budget are present.
So, e.g.
For first row: 0/0 = 0
For second row: 0/0 = 0
For third row: 28334/67060(instead of 200511) = 0
if there would have been an Actual value for the month of August e.g. 100, then (28334+100)/(67060+66614)
For fourth row: 0/0 = 0
How can I achieve this using expressions in SSRS?
Thanks in advanc

Hi rockstar283,
As per my understanding, you want to add a column names Progress, it is calculated from the values of Actual and Budget. In current month, Progress = sum(Actual)/sum(Budget), else, it is set to 0. If so, please refer to the following expression:
=IIF(Month(Fields!pmonth.Value)=Month(Today()),Sum(Fields!Actual.Value),0)/IIF(Sum(Fields!budget.Value)=0,1,Sum(Fields!budget.Value))
The following screenshot is for your reference:
If my understanding is not correct, please feel free to let me know. I would appreciate it if you could give us detailed description of your requirements, it’s also better to provide the table structure and some sample data. It will help us move more quickly
toward a solution.

Need to write an expression in SSRS calculated fieldwhich will sum only C1L1 + C2 L1 +C3L1?
Is this possible ? Can somebody please help

Hi,
After testing the issue in my local environment, we can refer to the expression below to achieve your requirement (supposing that the L1,L2,L3 in col2 field, 10,3,6 in value field, the dataset named DataSet1):
=SUM(IIF(Fields!col2.Value="L1",Fields!value.Value,0),"DataSet1")
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.

Showing yesterday's data in SSRS

Hi Guys,
I need some help with an expression for SSRS. I need to get only the data for the last date in the query . I just want the previous date information whereas on Monday, it's going to be Friday's information.
I tried with this as a test but is not working.
=IIF(Fields!OpenDate.Value >= DateAdd("d",-1,today),COUNT(Fields!InFxO.Value), 0)
I need it for to create a dashboard and show yesterday's factory output.
Thanks

Hi Eric1000,
According to your description, you want to count the number of InFxO values when OpenDate is prior to the current day.
In this case, we can use IIF function returns value of InFxO depending on whether OpenDate is before today, then use Count function returns a count of non-null values specified by the expression, evaluated in the context of the given scope. Please refer
to the expression like below:
=Count(IIf(Fields!OpenDate.Value < Today(), Fields!InFxO.Value, Nothing))
Besides, Sum function returns the sum of all the non-null numeric values specified by the expression, evaluated in the given scope. We can also use Sum function to implement the function like below:
=Sum(IIf(Fields!OpenDate.Value <Today(), 1,0))
If there is any misunderstanding , please feel free to let me know.

Creating multivalue parameter in SSRS on top of DB2 views

How to create multivalue parameterized report in SSRS for belo scenerio:
Data source is DB2 and we don't need to write whole query as expression while creating dataset.
But if we don't need to write whole query as expression in SSRS, is that possible to create the view in DB2 with same expression query and while calling the view in SSRS, how multivalue report can be generated.

Hi Andy,
Based on my understanding, you want to create a multivalued parameter in your report. When creating the parameter, you don’t want to write a whole query to specify the parameter’s value which is used in the main dataset, right?
In Reporting Services, if we want to create a multivalued parameter, we can create a new dataset to populate the valid values for the parameter. Within the new dataset, we needn’t write a whole query which is used in the main dataset, we can only retrieve
those data which will be used by the parameter. So in your scenario, you can write a simple query to populate the valid values for the multivalued parameter. If you create a view on database side, you can also call the view in SSRS to retrieve the corresponding
data, then specify the values for the parameter with those data.

How to create 2 conditions from 2 datasets in row visibility SSRS

Hi Experts,
In ssrs, I want to create an expression for the row visibility. But, the expression will contain 2 conditions from different 2 datasets (DealStarts & RowofTrendingVisibility). I have applied a solution from online, but got an error message is
"The Visibility.Hidden expression for the tablix ‘Tablix9’ contains an error: [BC30451] Name 'launchdate' is not declared. "
I think that there is a minor issue in my syntax. Can some one help me to correct it? Thank you.
=iif ((Last(MonthName("DealStarts"))=monthname(month(today())) or launchdate ("RowofTrendingVisibility")<Parameters!StartDate.Value),true, false)

Hi JTan414,
I have check the expression you have provided and there are many incorrect using of this expression, please check and do some modification as below:
For the MonthName function you should follow the grammar like:
=MonthName(10,True)
=MonthName(Month(Fields!BirthDate.Value),False)
="The month of your birthday is " & MonthName(Month(Fields!BirthDate.Value))
You have add the dataset name "DealStarts" at the wrong place, it should like below:
=Last(MonthName(Month(Fields!BirthDate.Value)),"DealStarts")
or
=Last(MonthName(Fields!IntegerValueField.Value),"DealStarts")
This will return the last value from the dataset
There is no function named launchdate, expression "launchdate ("RowofTrendingVisibility")" is incorrect and you shouldn't add the datasetname in this way.
If the expression involved of conditions from two different datasets, limit kinds of functions will support to use:
=Last(Fields!BirthDate.Value,"DataSetName")
=First(Fields!BirthDate.Value,"DataSetName")
