Filter child report based on filters in the parent report

My requirement is as follows:
I have two reports, parent and child. Parent report just shows Account Name, Time Spent on Account and it's percentage, so when you click on Account Name, child report is displayed filtered based Account Name and it shows the breakdown in time-spent i.e. different Project Types. So I am filtering Parent reports using Column Prompts(namely Date Range, Task Status, Project Status). So far this works fine. Now when I drill down on Account Name, child report displaying total time spent which I don't need. Child report should get filtered based filter values in the Parent report.
Can someone please help me out of this situation.
Thanks in Advance.

Hey,
This is tricky to trouble shoot. Firstly ensure all of your child report columns are set to 'Is Prompted' through the filter and try again. If this doesn't work then open your parent report and save another copy (also make sure things are 'Is Prompted' in your new copy and make sure your Intitial parent report navigation points to your new parent report). Drill from the initial parent report to the new one you just created, if this works and filters then build out your new parent report with all the fields you need to eventually become your new child report.
Thanks

How to go back to the parent report to a particular page from Child report in SSRS

Hi,
I am utilizing the Drill through functionality in one of my SSRS Report.
My Parent Report contains 5 pages. From 1st page I am selecting a link which goes to my Child report.
Here from my child report I want to provide a link to go back to my parent report's and it should render 3rd (it should show 3rd) page in parent report.
How to specify this ? Give your inputs as soon as possible.
Sridhar

Hi Sridhar,
After testing the issue in my environment, we can refer to the steps below to achieve your requirement.
Right-click a report item to open the properties dialog in Child report, click Action in the left pane.
Enable Go to URL action, the URL below is for your reference:
="http://server_name/ReportServer?/folder_name/parent_report_name&rc:Section=3”
When you click the textbox in the Child report, it jumps to the Parent report in the third page.

SSRS sub report not fitting exactly in the parent textbox in main report.

Hi All,
I have a small sub report placed in the main report. Everything is working fine except that the sub report not fitting exactly in the parent text box is bothering me and disturbing the look of it. Can any one tell me how to make the sub report fit to its
parent properly ???
contents of my report are as below.
1st column - project name,2nd column - location(sub report),3rd column - client name,4th - consultants(sub
report), 5th - registered contractors and date(sub report).
At the end of the sub report a line is displayed indicating its end. This is what i am concerned about.

Hello,
If I understand correctly, you have get a mess format with subreport.
We can adjust the subreport report body size and tablix with the same size. It will fit exactly in the parent text box. Please refer to the screenshot below:
If there are any misunderstanding, please elaborate the issue for further investigation.

Filter the report based on the parent report column values

Hi,
period --- jan12 feb12 mar12...
tickets --- _3_ _10_ _16_ .....
This is my report layout.When i click on the no.of total tickets 3/10/16.It need to navigate to another report which should be filtered based on the reporting period as well as total tickets.
How can i achieve this requirement.Is there any possibility to pass the column values from one report to another report?
I tried "filter based on the another request" but it not worked for me.
The summary of the requirement is when i click on 3 it need to display the 3 tickets details only...
Anyone please help me out.
thanks,
prassu

If your query means that for Jan 12 there are 3 tickets and for Feb 12 there are 10 tickets in the database, then you should only need to make the Period Column Is Prompted in the detail report. If the action link is not working this way then something else is wrong. Is the detail made from the same subject area?

How to suppress the report based on outer dimension in nested report

Hi Experts,
We have a report with nesting of two dimensions in rows. They are Program dimension and Account Dimension.
We need to supress the report based on the program dimension members. i.e whenever there are no values against all the accounts for a particular program that particular program should get supressed.
In the screenshot attached I am looking to supress the rows 37,38 and 39 as the data against this program is empty.
However I dont want to supress the rows 31 and 33 as there is a capital data against this program in row number 32. So we have to supress the rows based on absence of data at program level.
We are using SP14 on BPC 10.
I remember that such functionality could be acheived in BPC 7.5 by flagging the required dimension to have suppress in Expansion Range. So I guess, similar functionality would be there in BPC 10 as well.
I have evaluated the option of VBA macro to hide the required rows, but was wondering if we can achieve the same using EPM functionality as we used to do in BPC7.5.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions!!
Regards,
Shiva

Hi Shiva,
First you have to check the option Keep Blocks:
This option will show the whole block even if only one line contain some not zero/empty cells in the row.
Second, when you select option Filter on All Columns/Rows you have to select OR as operator between columns:
In this case the test for >0 (or for <0) will be applied to each column and the result will be OR'ed with other columns. True will be even if one column contains not zero and not empty cell.
You logic to check individual column require to hardcode the members - not good!
Vadim
P.S. If you select AND for Filter on All Columns/Rows - then only lines with all cells with non zero / non empty will be shown as in your example!

Can a subreport select records based on values in the main report record?

Post Author: calvin
CA Forum: General
Perhaps my understanding of a subreport is incorrect as this is the first time I've used one, but it seems to me that the subreport should be able to use the values from the main report record in its (the subreport's) operations-but my subreport doesn't seem to be working that way.In my main report, I select a set of records from a 'request' table. I have a subreport in the detail section so the subreport is processed for each of the request records. That works, but I'm simply getting the same data reported multiple times. It's as if the subreport only uses the last request record rather than the current one. Stating it this way I can see that the problem might be evaluation time-it's processing the request records first, then processing the subreport, and only then printing everything. If this is correct then putting WhilePrintingRecords on the subreport should work-but the only way I know of to do that is in a formula. Can I call the subreport from a formula? Or am I totally off-track?Thanks.

Have you established a link(s) between your main report and subreport?When viewing the main report, click edit --> subreport links and link the 2 based on whatever values from the main report you want.

Linking Subreports based on group in the main report

Hello,
I have a main report that groups by department, month, and then employee name. I put a subreport in at the month and name level (it brings back statistics for a particular employee for the chosen month). The subreport is based on a completely different set of data. I want the subreport to pull just the data for the individual month and employee into that employees monthly section. How do I link the subreport? It seems like it should be pretty straightforward, but I can't get it to work. Do I need to set up groups in the subreport? I am a beginner and appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Al

How I would do it is as follows
Create a Formula Field and choose the group name e.g.
GroupName ({migsol_oppact.COMPANY})
Then link the sub report using that Formula Field

How to send a report to corresponding client from the SSRS Report

Hi Friends,
I have one requirement, I have multiple clients information in the report based on the Input client parameter it will show in the report.
I want to schedule the report. I need to send a report only with the corresponding client information to relevant mail id.
Example:
Client Name : Ajay
I need to send a report only about Ajay information to his mail id.
How we can achieve this ?? Please help..
Thanks in Advance..
Regards,
LuckyAbdul

Hi LuckyAbdul,
If we want to send a report only with the corresponding client information to relevant mail id, we should add a parameter in the report to filter the relevant customer information. And we also need to add the recipient email id in the report, so that we
can delivery the report to all the customers.
I find there is another thread with the same issue posted by you, and I have already post a detail reply about this issue, you can refer to it with the link below:

Passing different (multi-) values for parameters to drill-through report, based on clicked subtotal in main report

In Report Builder 3.0, I have made a main report in which the user can filter the underlying dataset using three parameters (all multi-value). The report shows totals grouped by these three parameters, as well as a grand total. What I want is to click
on a total, which then opens the drill-through report for the corresponding records. I have achieved this for the grand total; the action in the corresponding text box passes all selected values of the parameters to the drill-through report.
What I cannot figure out is how to make this work right when clicking on a subtotal. When I use the same expression as for the grand total, the same values for the parameters are passed, instead of the subset that apply to the corresponding text box in the
main report. I expected this to work, because Report Builder /does/ correctly calculate the SUMs for the different levels, even though the expressions are the same.
My question is: how do I pass different drill-through (multi-) values for parameters, corresponding to the respective subtotals in the main report?
(FYI: I am using Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 and Report Builder 3.0 .)

Hello Katherine,
Thanks once more for your quick reply.
I was aware of the textbox action "Go to report", and how to pass parameters in general. My question concerned how to determine the scope of the passed multi-value parameters (to the values that apply to the respective group/subtotal). The article you linked
to is informative, but not a solution to my problem.
A colleague of mine came up with a pragmatic solution: instead of trying to determine the scope of the parameter values, now I "look to the left in the results table". The two screenshots below should illustrate this. (Screenshots are in Dutch. Specific information
is pixelated.)
Unfortunately, I am not able to post images. Once my account is verified, I will edit them in. For now, I hope the text speaks for itself enough.
[Screenshot: Drill-through parameters - 01: Report Builder tablix with subtotals]
[Screenshot: Drill-through parameters - 02: Textbox properties (selected in screenshot 01) - Action - Go to report]
The first screenshot shows the tablix in the Report Builder. The second screenshot shows the properties of the textbox selected in the first.
Notice that I do not pass parameters for the first two columns, but the actual values. I only pass the parameter (containing /all/ user-selected values) for the third column. In the textbox below the selected one, I pass the actual values for the first column,
and parameters for the last two. In the textbox above the selected one, I pass the actual values for all three columns.
The only (cosmetic) flaw this approach has is that in the drill-through report, the list of selected parameters might show values that do not occur in the (corresponding part of the) results, and only for those parameters for which the main report passes (all
user-selected) parameter values, and not the actual values in the results. The results are correct, though.
If there is a way to directly determine the scope of multi-value parameters for passing to a drill-through report, I would still like know. But for now, this seems to work.

Binding Sub Report based on link clicked in main report in BIDS

Is it possible to bind Sub Report based on the link clicked in main report which is the parameter for sub report in BIDS?

Hi Thanuja534,
If I understand correctly, you want to add a drillthough action on a report to jump into another report with a specified parameter.
A report can contain links to other reports. The report that opens when we click the link in the main report is known as a drillthrough report. Drillthrough reports are a type of report that we access by clicking a link in the current report. When we click
a text box that has a drillthrough action, we open the drillthrough report. If the drillthrough report has parameters, we must pass parameter values to each report parameter.
Besides, drillthrough reports must exist on the same report server as the main report, but they can be in different folders. We can add a drillthrough link to any item that has an Action property, such as a text box, an image, or data points on a chart.
For more information about adding parameters to pass to a Drillthrough Report, please see:

In SSMS after creating the query Report, how to export excel the same report from SSMS

for Beginners in SSMS after the report is created , how to export the same report to excel, I did try the option to task and export and follow the procedure, this procedure does not export the same report, the one was created, unless I am missing some steps,

As you have said you are not a technical person try using Import Export wizard.
Refer this link
http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertutorial/203/simple-way-to-import-data-into-sql-server/
And another simplest one is to copy the result set from the query window. Right click the result and select "Copy with Headers".

S_ALR_87012357 / S_ALR_87012356-Wrong reporting of tax amounts on the tax reports.

Hi,
S_ALR_87012357 / S_ALR_87012356
Tax amount for tax codes V9, VP and VT are calculated and
displayed correctly in FI reporting but they are reported at a higher amount in
the tax reports run by transactions S_ALR_87012357 / S_ALR_87012356.
Since its a standard report , I would expect there would be a way of correcting this wrong tax amount showing this report .
Is there any SAP note regarding this error ?
Appreciate your help and advise..
Kind Regards
Thiru

Hi Srikanth ,
As you mentioned it is showing the difference ...
Please find attached screenshot ...
Is there a way to correct this ? since its creating an issue& confusing from Finance/Accounting point of view...
Kind regards
