Ssrs 2008 r2 textbox expression

In an SSRS 2008 R2 existing report, I wouuld like a particular textbox to look like the following when there is data:
Checking: $57.35
In the same textbox when there is no amount, the textbox would look like the following:
Checking: $0.00
The following iif statement gets the dollar amount want to display:
=IIF(Fields!PaymentType.Value="Checking", sum(cdec(Fields!TransactionAmount.Value)),0)
However I would like to know how to write an iif statement that would include the wording
"Checking: " with the dollar amont that needs to be displayed.
I have tried concatentations that I can think of, but when the report runs, I get the #error in the location
I would like to see the wording "Checking:' with the dollar amount.
Thus can you show me an expression that would solve my problem?

Hi,
I think you have a field "Fields!TransactionAmount.Value" which have amount and you want to display it with word "checking" so for this you need to use IIF function as:
=IIF(Fields!PaymentType.Value="Checking", "Checking: "+str(sum(cdec(Fields!TransactionAmount.Value))),
"Others: "+str(sum(cdec(Fields!TransactionAmount.Value))))
I hope this will work.
Thanks

SSRS 2008 Gauge ToolTips - expression does not work?

Hi,
I'm attempting to use various SSRS 2008 gauges in a report. When I attempt to use an expression in a tooltip such as '=Sum(Fields!ID.Value)' , the tooltip does not show up.
However if I replace that expression with a static value such as '1' it pops up.
It seems that an expression should work? Any reason that it would not?
Thanks

Hi,
I could reproduce the scenario you posted.
It is caused that string type is required for the
ToolTip property of the Gauge Pointer. So, please change the expression to
=CStr(Sum(Fields!ID.Value)).
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
Thanks,

Hide a TextBox for CSV extract in SSRS 2008

Hi,
I have a requirement to hide a textbox in the csv extract of SSRS report built on 2008. I understand it is easily achievable in 2008 R2 with the help of globals!, but I have to unfortunately achieve it in SSRS 2008.
Any expert advice.

Hi MTiwari,
As far as I know, it have no approach to work around the issue.
In SSRS version before 2008R2, if we want to hide text box when we export to CSV, we have to hide this item in report design. In this situation, this item also would be hide in other render format.
If possible, I recommend you update your SSRS 2008 to SSRS 2008r2.

Issues passing drillthrough parameters from a multi-level tablix in SSRS 2008 R2

Hello,
I am really struggling with trying creating a drillthrough report that starts with a matrix (tablix) and passing those parameters. I am using SSRS 2008 R2.
Here's my scenario:
I have a matrix that has mulitple levels where you can drill down. Here an example with all the levels open:
Active
Term
Leave
Total
128
88
121
United States
110
80
85
New York
65
30
57
Manhattan
10
6
9
Buffalo
20
23
4
Albany
35
1
44
Texas
45
50
28
Dallas
40
30
22
Houston

Blois

Druex

Tours

I want to drillthrough to another report - Detail Report. As I understand it, I would click the 65 for New York and I would see the detail for the 65 Active people. If I click the 2 under Blois, I would see the 2 terminated people in Blois. My understanding
for this to work, the Detail Report would need a a parameter for each of the level possibilities in the matrix that I could click: Country, State, City as well as the Status (Active, Term, Leave).
While I understand about passing parameters, what I don't understand is how to pass the parameters if they are blank. Let's say I clicked 65 for New York, I would need to pass State = New York Status = Active. But the remaining parameters (Country
and City would be null). I know Country doesn't need to be Null in this case.
My Detail Report has the parameters defaulted to Null, but whether I put the parameters in a Filter for the dataset or in the query itself, I cannot get it to ignore the Nulls.
As a crazy work-around (I think) I can put in the Where of the query something along the lines of: this:
and (a.Country in (@paramCountryCode) or NULL in (@paramCountryCode) )
and I would need to do that for each parameter. Usually I have to use 'ALL' instead of NULL, I'm note sure why.
Additionally, in the Report Action of the Main Report, I need to pass those parameters for each level and their Status. I am also not clear whether or not I need to put in all the parameters on each of the levels (Country, State, City) of the matrix. And if
I do, do I need to make the expressions an IIF statement stating whether or not they are In Scope?
All the examples I was able to find, only showed one or maybe two parameters being passed. Doing the way I am trying, seems convoluted, error-prone and tedious. I really hope that I am wrong.
Is there a better way to approach drilltrough reports from a matrix when there are multiple levels?
Thank you for the help.

Hi Jenna_Fire,
According to your description, you have a matrix contains total for each group on each level. Now your requirement is, when you click on any number (data field or total), it will go to the detail report which returns all the detail information of the people
within the group scope. For example, if you click on the total of Active users in United States, it will return the detail information of Active users in New York and Texas. Right?
In this scenario, we should set the parameter (@Country, @State, @City) allow multiple values in both main and detail report. And in Default Value (@Country, @State, @City), query out all distinct values. In the textbox which contains
those total values, when set use these parameters to run the report, we only need to pass the parameters of parent groups. For example, if we click on the total of Active users in New York, we only need to pass Country, State, Status to detail report, and
in the detail report, the City parameter will use all distinct values (Default Values) because we don't pass the City parameter. We have tested this case with sample data in our local environment. Here are steps and screenshots for your reference:
1. Create parameter Country, State, City and Status in both main report and detail report. Set both Available Value and Default Value get values from query (Create a dataset for each parameter, use "select distinct [column] from [table]" as query). Set allow
multiple values for parameter Country, State and City in both reports.
2. In corresponding textbox, pass appropriate parameters in go to report Action.
4. Filter data in detail report (in where clause or using filters).
5. Save and preview. It looks like below:

Ssrs 2008 'select all' option to be selected for a parameter

In a new ssrs 2008 report, the problem is all reports are not selected from the parameter called 'report' when the report runs automatically. When the report executes, there is nothing displayed in the parameter selection dropdown box. The user
has to click the down arrow to select which reports they want to execute.
Here is the siutation for the ssrs 2008 report:
In a new SSRS 2008 report, I want to be able to allow the user to select which report they would like to see generated by selecting the report name from a dropdown list. This is a multi-valued parameter and the parameter name is called 'report'. I
would like the default value to be for all 5 reports to be selected.
All 5 reports will be on the 'main' report. There will be no subreports. Each report will have its own unique matrix and the matrix will be visibile based upon what is selected in the parameter called 'report'.
My question is how can I make the 'default' value for the parameter called 'report' have all the reports selected?
Normally to get all multivalued parameter values selected you create a dataset and run a query against a table. However in this case, there is no table to query. The user just selects what report(s) they want executed.
Here is the code that is used:
1.Right-click the multiple parameter ‘repot’ to open the Properties dialog box.
2.Specify the values below in the Available values:
Label: report1
Value: report1
Label: report2
Value: report2
Label: report3
Value: report3
Label: report4
Value: report4
Label: report5
Value: report5
3.Specify the values below as the Default Values:
report1   report2   report3   report4   report5
4.Right-click the ‘report1’ to open the Tablix Properties dialog box.
5.Select Visibility in the left pane, type the expression below in the “Show or hide based on an expression” textbox:
=iif(InStr(join(Parameters!report.Value,","),"report1")>0,false,true)
6.Use the expressions below to control the visibility of the ‘report2’, ‘report3’, ‘report4’, ’report5’:
=iif(InStr(join(Parameters!report.Value,","),"report2")>0,false,true)
=iif(InStr(join(Parameters!report.Value,","),"report3")>0,false,true)
=iif(InStr(join(Parameters!report.Value,","),"report4")>0,false,true)
=iif(InStr(join(Parameters!report.Value,","),"report5")>0,false,true)
Thus can you tell me how all values from the 'report' parameter can be selected automatically when the ssrs report is executed?

Pass default value as below and see
=Split("Report1,Report2,Report3,Report4,Report5",",")

Ssrs 2008 r2 tablix is displaying when visibility is set to hide

In an SSRS 2008 r2 report, I have an existing report that if the grade level is from 01 to 03, one tablix is displayed. If the grade level > 03, the other tablix is displayed.
Now in the tablix for grade levels 01 through 03, I have placed several rectangles onto the tablix for better control of some new textboxes. I have set the property of some of the new textboxes so can not grow and can not shrink. I have not yet placed rectangles
onto the tablix for grade levels > 03.
Currently when I run the report for grade level 04, the tablix for grade levels 01 to 03 does not display. However there is a blank space on the SSRS report where grade levels 01 to 03 would display.
The tablix for grade level 04 does display.
Thus can you tell me what what to check on so the blank space for where tablix for grades 01 to 03 does not display when I want to generate the report for grade 04?

Hi wendy,
Based on my research, if we directly hide a tablix, it would only hide the data but the tablix frame is remained. If we hide the tablix with expression, it would be hidden completely. This is by design. In your scenario, it seems that the tablix hide with
expression. So I guess maybe you are using a rectangle contain the tablix, and there are other items in the rectangle. Or there are some space between the tablix and the later items, so there are some blank space on the report when run the report for grade
level 04.
If there are any misunderstanding, please elaborate the issue for further investigation.
Thanks,

Ssrs 2008 r2 use 'Globals!ReportServerUrl in url

In a SSRS 2008 R2 report, I am able to have the users open a pdf document in a new window by using the following code in the action field of a textbox property:
="javascript:void(window.open('http://test1.op.org/ReportServer/Pages/Resource.aspx?%2fboards%2fImages%2fHS.pdf'))".
My goal is not to hard code the url path. I would like the url path to be dynamic based upon which report server the ssrs report is running from.
Basically I would like to replace the
http://test1.op.org/ReportServer with the Globals!ReportServerUrl variable that report server has a available.
I would like to replace the above expression with the following:
="javascript:void(window.open('Globals!ReportServerUrl/Pages/Resource.aspx?%2fboards%2fImages%2fHS.pdf'))". However this expression does not work.
Thus can you tell me how to use the Globals!ReportServerUrl ssrs item with the javasctript window open statement so that the expression works correctly?

Hi Wendy,
If we are put Globals!ReportServerUrl expression in the “”, in Reporting Services, it will recognize it as a string data. So, it cannot display as report server URL.
Please refer to the following expression:
= Globals!ReportServerUrl & “/Pages/Resource.aspx?%2fboards%2fImages%2fHS.pdf”
If you have any questions, please feel free to let me know.

Ssrs 2008 r2 display only final total amount

In an existing ssrs 2008 r2 report, I want the final grand total to appear as the last amount displayed in the SSRS report.
In the 'main' matrix of the report, I have created an outside group row below the last line of the matrix.
The expresion for this statement looks the the following:
="Grand Total: $"+str(sum(cdec(Fields!TransactionAmount.Value),"datasetname")).
The total amount is correct, but this total amount line appears after every control break. Basically the amount appears every
time the control break changes by date, teacher, or student number.
The extra row I added does contain grouping references to date, teacher, and student number. Thus to solve my problem:
1. Can you tell me how to remove the grouping references to date, teacher, and student number so that the last row will be the only place the total amount will be displayed?
2. If the above is not an option, can you tell me how to add an extra row to the 'main' matrix so the report groupings do not appear on the final total line?
3. If the above 2 choices are not an option, would you tell me how to add the final total line in the final report footer and/or any place you believe the final total amount will appear only one time?

Hi Wendy,
According to your description, you want to add a row into your matrix to get the total value of TransactionAmount. This can be final total value which appears only one time in your matrix. Right?
In this scenario, the reason why the total amount line appears after each break change (data, teacher..) because this total amount line is still within the parent group. I guess you didn't add the outside group row on the top parent group. So we just need
to right click on the textbox which is top parent group, insert a row outside of group. Then put your expression into the added row. Now the total amount will appear only one time in the matrix. It looks like below:

How do you freeze the tablix header row in an Excel export file in SSRS 2008?

So this is totally killing me.
I've found out how to make a tablix header row repeat on each page of a PDF export file in SSRS 2008 (which I won't even get started on because all I can say is that 2005 is way better), but I cannot figure out how to make a simple header row of a tablix
freeze in an Excel export file. The tablix is right at the top of the body and spans the entire width of the design area. How in the world do you get it to freeze in the Excel export file?

Rashiki777,
From your information, I get that you want to freeze the tablix header when view the report in Excel. Please follows
these steps:
Click
the header row
Click
View menu on top of the toolbar, then you will Freeze Panes
Select one kind of Freeze based on your requirement.
This link supplies the detailed steps
http://inpics.net/tutorials/excel2007/vis5.html If you have any concern, please feel free to ask.
Of course,
you could utilize the list control to display a certain rows on one sheet, then every sheet in Excel will have one header, the steps are following:
Drag a list into report body, right-click
Details in Row Groups panel to select Group Properties….
Click
Add button, then type in expression =ceiling(RowNumber(nothing)/25)
in the textbox Note: 25 is just 25 rows per page, you could reset this value based on your requirement.
Drag the table control into this list control.
If you want to display every page in every sheet, you could add a page break to the table control in the list.

Challen Fu

SSRS 2008 - Chart Legend Missing Customitems property

Hi,
I'm currently in the process of converting my SSRS 2005 reports originaly designed with Dundas charts, to a SSRS 2008 report and facing an
issue with the charts legend.
Dundas Charts allows me to create custom legend items on a row, cell collection basis.
After BIDS 2008 has converted the rdl-file everthing looks fine except the custom legend that I have created
in the SSRS 2005 report. The legend items did not appear in the reports preview.
I looked thru all the legend properties and read thru Formatting the Legend on a Chart (Report Builder
and SSRS)
but still unable to locate the properties.
Anyone encounters this issue and likes to share a workaround / solution?
Thanks
Bodo

Hi Mike,
I tried your workaround and it displays properly, but problem is with displaying the Line color. I'm using reportviewer in .Net 2008 and Line control doesn't contain any expression tab. Please help me with setting line color. Attached is RDLC in XML format.

Performance issue due to localization code in SSRS 2008

The reports I am working on consist lot of data and all the customers use it frequently.
Report title and columns are localized by expressions .
This takes long time for report rendering and exporting to csv. When I test without the localization code it doesn't take that long .
Can someone help me to optimize the report. SSRS 2008 R2
Archana

Hi Archana,
In Reporting Services, the total time to generate a reporting server report (RDL) can be divided into 3 elements:
Total time = (TimeDataRetrieval) + (TimeProcessing) + (TimeRendering)
TimeRendering means the number of milliseconds spent after the Rendering Object Model is exposed to the rendering extension. It includes the Time spent in on-demand expression evaluations (e.g. TextBox.Value, Style.*). So it is make sense that the report
with localization code takes longer time.
Besides, we can improve the report performance form other aspects. For example, we can add filter, sorting and aggregation in dataset query, because filter, sort, and aggregation is more efficient on the data source than during report processing. For more
details about report performance, please refer to the following article:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb522806(v=sql.105).aspx
If there are any other questions, please feel free to ask.

Excel Formulas in SSRS 2008

Hello,
I need to have a report that will have formulas in excel. I understand that the limited support for exporting excel formulas has been dropped in SSRS 2008. Is there any way to work around this and still output formulas?
obvioulsy the way to do it in previous versions of SSRS are not working (using report items). I tried to add my formulas in my dataset (I can know which excel cells I need in the formulas) but they end up being displayed as text. I then have to get in the
excel file and enter and exit each cell so that it "becomes" a formula.
thanks a lot!
Simon

Column1                          Column2
Column 3
5                                         10
=5+10
Here text box 1 .value = 5
textbox2.value = 10
textbox3.value = text box1 .value + textbox2.value
Instead of referring Fields in Formula, Use Text box values...
=ReportItems!Textbox1.value + ReportItems!Textbox2.value
HI Gayathri ,
How about this one
col1 co12       col1+col2
1     2              3
4     5               9
2      2             4
Assuming the col1+col2 columns cell expression to be Reportitems!<col1-cells textbox-Name>.Value +ReportItems!<col2-cells textbox-Name>
Now my page header textbox consisting an expression as =sum(ReportItems!<(col1+col2)-cells textbox-Name>.Value
Now do you think changing col1 value reflects both col1+col2 value and Header value ?
I think it might reflect col1+col2 column value but not inturn reflects the headervalue .
Thanks .

Controlling execution of subreport on main Report in ssrs 2008 R2

Controlling execution of subreport on main Report in ssrs
Hi,
Am using more than 100 subreports in my main report using ssrs 2008 R2.
And given conditional Visibility in sub reports based on the Parameter selection in main Report . But the performance is very very slow in main report.
While selecting single sub report executes in seconds. The same report in main report executes in hours.
According to my view,
All the Sub reports executes and finally conditional visibility is working. Can we Control executing sub reports?
Regards, Gayathri devi P.S. : Please click the 'Mark as Answer' button if a post solves your problem! :)

Hi,
I think the time to render 100 report sure will be long time and the main report want to render those reports.
So first why you do not separate those report on many reports for different purpose.
second if this is a dashboard report you may use many matrix in the same report and the parameters passed by default or based on expression.
I really hope if you make your report as dashboard report, many matrix many parameters render it once. As I remember I think SSRS will try to execute your
DataSets in parallel which will reduce your waiting time.
I hope this is helpful.

SELECT        PRODTABLE.PRODID, PRODCALCTRANS.COSTGROUPID, PRODTABLE.QTYCALC, PRODTABLE.PRODSTATUS, PRODCALCTRANS.COSTAMOUNT,
                         PRODCALCTRANS.COSTMARKUP, PRODCALCTRANS.REALCOSTAMOUNT, PRODCALCTRANS.CALCTYPE, PRODTABLE.DATAAREAID, PRODCALCTRANS.KEY3,

= 1) AND
                         (PRODCALCTRANS.CALCTYPE >= 0)

Hi Bitia,
As per my understanding, after you add Item field to the report, it does not calculate total of matl group, right? If that is the case, please refer to the following steps to troubleshoot the problem:
Modify the dataset used to retrieve data, delete the fields will not be used in the report.
Run the query in SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) to make sure that there is data for matl cost group.
Make sure that row group and totals are correctly added.
In addition, do you want to add Finished date to page header? If that is the case, we can use ReportItem to achieve the goal. Please refer to the following steps:
In design surface, right-click the report and click Insert, then click Page Header.
Drag Text Box from Toolbox to page header.
Right-click inside of Text Box, then click Expression.
In the expression text box, type the code like below:
=ReportItems!FinishedDate.Value
If the problem remain unresolved, please provide the screenshot of the report in design view, the following screenshot is for your reference:

SSRS 2008 - hide chart lines based on parameter selected

How to control visibility of chart lines based on Params selected by user?
By default, my report display last 3 years worth of data (including current) with Month on the x axis and Counts on the y axis. I have two Boolean parameters:
TwoYrs? T/F
ThreeYrs? T/F
if False is selected for TwoYr and ThreeYr parameters then I want to hide chart lines corresponding to last year and the year before.
What I've tried: Created 3 Series groups with filters. eg. YearSeries1 to return only current year data and applying an expression to display it if params TwoYrs and ThreeYrs = False. and so on for YearSeries2 to return current + last
years data if param TwoYrs is True and ThreeYrs = False. But I don't see where to add expression to control the display of the individual series groups. I am open to any way of doing this, but this seemed most logical.

Hi Ok-Hee,
In your Source Query just need to filter the series data based on the Parameters.
I have written sample query below:-
select * from
select 1 monthnumber , 'Jan' MonthName, 2013 year,100 amount
union
select 1 monthnumber , 'Jan' MonthName, 2014 year ,200 amount
union
select 1 monthnumber , 'Jan' MonthName, 2015 year , 300 amount
union
select 2 monthnumber , 'Feb' MonthName, 2013 year, 300 amount
union
select 2 monthnumber , 'Feb' MonthName, 2014 year, 350 amount
union
select 2 monthnumber , 'Feb' MonthName, 2015 year,200 amount
union
select 3 monthnumber , 'Mar' MonthName, 2013 year, 380 amount
union
select 3 monthnumber , 'Mar' MonthName, 2014 year, 100 amount
union
select 3 monthnumber , 'Mar' MonthName, 2015 year, 500 amount
)t
where year in (
select distinct FilterYear from
select case when @TwoYrs=1 then year(getdate())-1 else year(getdate()) end FilterYear
union
select case when @TwoYrs=1 and @ThreeYrs =1 then year(getdate())-2 else year(getdate()) end FilterYear
union
select year(getdate()) FilterYear
) t
I have created one post in my blog , you can check the result.
