SSRS report is incorrectly exporting scientific notation to Excel

I created a SSRS  2012 report which has a field of data that is set to scientific notation (1.234E-15).  Upon exporting it to Excel version 2010,
some of the values come across as #VALUE! and it should show the actual number.  It is only doing this for parts of the data, I have some that have 1.234E-15 that show up fine.  I have tried many things to resolve but to no avail.

Hi Laurie,
As per my understanding, Excel display #### character is due to following two reason:
• The text is too long for the cell at its current width.
• Value is out of data type range.
In your case, the issue may cause by the cell width is too short. Please make sure it has enough cell width when we design report in SSRS.
If the issue is persist, please elaborate the issue for further investigation.

  • Excel export sum of cells problem in ssrs report

    Hii all
    i have ssrs report when i export it to excel and try to take sum of block of cells , it just shows me row count 
    not sum of values which i have selected to sum..
    please have a look on this ..
    the data in cell is a text ..
    help please ..
    Dilip Patil..

    Hi Dilip,
    In Reporting Services, sum function returns the sum of all the non-null numeric values specified by the expression, evaluated in the given scope. If the values are text type values, we couldn’t sum the values. While we can count the values. For more details,
    please see:
    Sum Function (Report Builder and SSRS)
    After export the report to Excel format, we can also aggregate the values in Excel file. Based on my test, we can select a block of cells, then click the Quick Analysis icon to calculate the values. When the values are non-null numeric values, there are
    many calculation functions, including sum function. While the values are text type values, there is only count function under TOTALS option. So this is by design. There is no way to sum text type values, it doesn’t make sense.
    If there are any misunderstanding, please elaborate the issue for further investigation.
    Thanks,

  • SSRS report Excel Export file size is huge

    Hello everyone,
    I am facing an issue with SSRS report exporting  to Excel.
    Issue : Exported file size is too big.
    I have a matrix report ( parametrized report ) it fetches data from multiple table.
    initially when
    1) I select all parameters all values
    2) load the report after that
    3) exporting to excel
    so exported file size was about 10 Mb to 12MB
    Now, suddenly from this month exported file size is too big around 62 MB for same data,
    I checked on different forums and tried the solutions but it didn't worked,
    can anyone please suggest me on this.
    My environment is
    Visual studio (BIDS) 2008
    SQL Server 2008 R2
    Excel 2007
    Thanks

    Hi UdayKGR,
    According to your description, when you export a report into an excel file, the exported file size is too huge. Now you want to reduce the file size. Right?
    In this scenario, do you export the report into excel 2003 file? When reports are first exported and saved to Excel 2003, they do not benefit from the file optimization that Excel automatically applies to its *.xls workbook files. The larger file size can
    cause problems for e-mail subscriptions and attachments. To reduce the size of the *.xls files for exported reports, open the *.xls files and then resave the workbooks. Resaving the workbooks typically reduces their file sizes by 40 to 50 percent. Also please
    try to install the Reporting Services 2008 R2 Service Pack 2 and reduce the merged columns in exported excel file. For more information, please see the links below:

  • Issues in exporting SSRS report to PDF format in Report Server - Blank spaces are deleted

    Hi Gurus,
    I have a problem in exporting SSRS report to PDF format. It deletes all the blank spaces when I use bullet in a Text box and try to export to PDF formt in Report Server . For example
    •             Project submitted to the TRC
    Result in PDF format:
         • ProjectsubmittedtotheTRC
    I also noted that when I try to export to PDF in Visual Stuio 2005 (Business Intelligence development studio), it does not delete any blank spaces and shows the correct aligned Data in PDF format.
    Please help me as it is frustrating a lot
    I would highly appreciate for your quick response 

    Was there ever a solution found for this as i have the same issue.
    When bullet point is entered in a field all the spaces are removed when exported to PDF
    i tried exporting to excel and it does not remove spaces, however this is no use to me as it needs to be in PDF
    Using IE 7 (Don't think the browser has anything to do with it as this happened via a subscription)
    Didn't know SSRS had specific Service Packs, i though they came as patches to SQL Server (SQL Server is on Service Pack 3)
    This should be easy to replicate all you need to do is copy text containing a bullet point into a sql server database field and then add this field to a report export to pdf and the spaces are gone
    Thanks in advance,

  • 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,",")

  • Date issue when exporting data to Excel from SSRS report, where date is less than 1/1/1900

    Hi,
    I am using SSRS report to display the data from database. In that data, One of the column is DATE. when I am exporting to Excel all that dates are displaying fine except 1/1/1800 12:00 AM. Instead of 1/1/1800 12:00 AM it is displaying XXXXXXXXXXXXXX values.
    Please help me to fix the issue.
    Please let me know if more clarification required.
    Thanks In advance.

    Hello,
    We can use Cstr() function to convert the Date type data to String data. Suppose we have a field named DateTime, please refer to the expression below:
    =Cstr(Fields!DateTime.Value)
    Then we can get a string type data. There is an article about SSRS expression, you can refer to it.

  • How to Export SSRS report into Excel format using query string

    Hello all,
    I am new to SSRS world.
    Last night i was trying to add a hyperlink  on the SSRS report (.rdl) file, by clicking which we can export the report into "Excel" format, but with no luck.
    Can anybody tell me how to form the hyperlink, so that we can export the report with its current content ( I mean the report content generated by selecting some parameter values)

    Hi Suman85,
    Based on your scenario, you want to add a link on the SSRS report file, and then click it you can export the report into “Excel” format.
    Just as kishan1901 said , you can add a textbox to your report and type in the words “Click here and export the report
    to excel” .Then right-click the textbox and select Properties. Switch to Navigation tab, click the radiobutton of ‘Jump to URL’ and type in the expression ,here is just a example:
     ="http://vyof1884200/ReportServer$youhoo?/My+Adventure+Works/Product+Sales+and+Profitability+by+Month&rs:Command=Render&rs:Format=excel"
    Then preview the report ,you will see
    Click here and export the report to excel 
    when you move the mouse to it ,the mouse will become a hand ,then left-click, it will jump out a dialog box to indicate user whether the excel file should be saved , opened or canceled. 
    I think this is what you want, if you have any further requirement, could you please describe it in more detail? We would give you some resolution or workaround.

  • Error: SSRS report excel export in Sharepoint

    Paramesh G

    Hi Paramesh,
    Based on my understanding, you comes across an error when you export the report from SharePoint.
    In your scenario, you should check ULS logs with the Correlation ID to see if anything unexpected occurred. If possible, you can provide the log for our analysis. About how to check the ULS logs, please refer to the articles below:

  • Remove scientific notation in report

    I'm calculating a number and placing it in a comment box on a report. This works fine, but one of the numbers has decided to display in scientific notation (1.52666667e-3). The problem is that the comment box is not large enough to display the scientific notation and gives no indication of not fitting into the box. Instead I see 1.52666 with no indication of the exponent. I'd much rather see .001527 however I don't want to force a STR format with "d.dddddd" because most numbers don't need this much precision and I'd probably run into errors for numbers such as 12345 which won't fit into the comment box with forced 6 digit precision. If I can force it out of scientific precision, it'll probably be fine.
    BTW: is there a certain number range where scientific notation becomes the default? If I knew this range I could then force the format with the STR function to display the way I want. e.g. IF x>-001 and x<.001 then STR(X,"d.dddd")
    Either method would probably work for me.
    thanks,
    James
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    MyVar is a 2 dimensional pointer (Channel Group, Channel) to numeric channels that meet some criteria.
    change box size: I had to make the box 3 times the width to display the number correctly. It shows 1.27933333333333E-03*. I'm appending the "*" to show the field is calculated instead of unadultered from the .csv. Maybe the problem isn't that the number is small, but that it's infinitely repeating. The number is calculate from the values .001919 - abs(.001919)/3
    Left Justify: no difference from right justify.
    Autoadj: shows 1.28E-
    I'm making a column of channels on the report, that's why the comment text is being set multiple times.
    Humphreyy - thanks for your ideas and help.

  • Scientific Notation when Downloading Reports

    When downloading reports from a web template, in either Excel or CSV, some values are getting converted to scientific notation in the downloaded file. I am wondering if there is a setting which prevents any data to be converted to scientific notation when downloading. The data appears to be fine when viewing the report in Web.

    Hi Ripel
    You have downloaded the file to CSV which is also excel based format and uses most of the Excel's features, and when data is CSV file is in scientic foirmat , same will come in notepad..just do one thing select the format as number in the csv file by selecting column...and save it...in csv/notepad you will now see actual value
    Thanks

    You can add two textbox at the top outside the tablix and using expression to get the parameter value use have selected to display in the textbox as blew:
    TextBox1: =Parameters!Date.Value
    TextBox2: =Parameters!To.Value
    For Multiple value parameter you can use the expression like : =Join(Parameters!Date.Value,",")
    You can rename the two textbox' name in the properties as "Date" and "To"  then the two textboxs will display like belkow in the CSV report:
    Date                 TO
    01/01/2015      01/31/2015

  • When Export ssrs Report to CSV file runtime filters not working

    The Runtime Filters not working when Export SSRS Report to CSV format

    Hi PatilPriti,
    As for my understanding, the filter worked fine when you preview the report,
    but it did not work when you export the report to CSV format. I tried to export the report to CSV file on my side, and the data was shown as expected. I guess the issue is due to the parameter or filter. please try to export to Excel format to test again
    and make sure you created the filter correctly. Please refer to the following
    blog about how to add a filter in SSRS:
    http://arcanecode.com/2010/07/12/adding-filter-parameters-to-sql-server-2008-reporting-services-reports/
    If the problem is not resolved, i would appreciate it if you could give us
    detailed description of your problem.
    It’s better to provide the table structure and some sample data, it will help us move more quickly toward a solution.
