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.

How to activate a different sub-report for each row in the data set as main report page breaks on each row of data in the main dataset

I am going to try asking this same question a different way as I have yet to find a working solution to my problem. I have a main report and then 8 sub reports. My main report has one data set and returns one row of data per account number. One
of the fields in the main data set is called AccountProf. My main report displays one page per Account number and then calls a different sub report based on that account's AccountProf value. The sub reports take in the account number as a parameter
and get multiple rows of data to display that accounts usage formatted differntly for each AccountProf (hence the 8 different sub report.
So far I can figure out how to do everything but setting the visibility property of each sub-reports when I have multiple accounts. If I use the following expression for the visibility property on each sub report, it makes all the applicable sub report
for all the accounts requested visible at once:
=IIF(Fields!AccountProf.Value= "USE_PLUS_DMD",False,True)
*The value in bold USE_PLUS_DMD is different for each sub report.
Here is a look at what the main report look like:
Here is the main reports data set:

Hi JasonDWilson77,
According to your description, there is a main report and 8 sub reports in the report, you want to set visibility of sub reports, if no value is passed to the parameter of sub report, the sub report will not be displayed. If that is the case, please refer
to the following steps:
1. Create a new parameter named NewAccountNumber, set its data type the same as @AccountNumber, select Allow multiple values, set Visibility to be hidden, then set all available values to default values.
2. Right-click the first sub report and open Subreport Properties dialog box, click Parameters in left pane, set name to AccountNumber, then click (fx) button, type the expression like below:
=Parameters! NewAccountNumber(0)
3. Click Visibility in left pane, select Show or hide based on an expression, then click (fx) button and type the expression like below:
=IIF(InStr(Join(Parameters! AccountNumber.Value), Parameters!NewAccountNumber.Value(0))>0 , false,true)
4. Modify parameter of other sub reports like step2.
5. Set visibility of other sub reports like step3.
If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.

Fix the coulmn width of main report which contain the sub report( remains white space of extra width)

Hi,
I am setting the column width of main report and that column is bounded with the sub report which contain some data.
But if width is exceeded other than sub report data that width is showing as white space block.
It should be showing as normal header in gray shade.
Please provide the solution for this. see the screen attached.
Thanks

Hi Raj,
According to your description, you want to show the sub report without any white space in the textbox. Right?
In Reporting Services, when we display a sub report in a textbox, this textbox will always show the whole sub report area. If the textbox is smaller than the report area, this textbox will extend automatically to fit the size of the sub report. Otherwise,
it will has white space inside of the textbox. And if you have white space in your sub report, it will also be displayed in the textbox. So you may need to adjust the sub report size to make it fitted in main report.

My lightening charger is not fitting snug into the charging port

Hello. I am having trouble with the lightening charger for my iPhone 5. When I plug it in, the phone makes the sound that it always does, indicating that it is charging. Then, it starts making the noise over and over. The lightening charger is not fitting snug into the charging port. I tried cleaning it out and got a big ball of lint out, but the issue remains. It is hard to get a charge, I have to place my phone down and finagle the lightening cord so that it will charge. I have a Genius Bar appointment, but it isn't until the end of the week. Does anyone have any suggestions? I'm also having this issue with my car charger, so I know its not the lightening cord that came with the phone that is causing the problems.

Make a Genius Bar appointment before you make the drive.

How to use the region parameter of main report for subreport chart titles?

I am using Crystal Reports 11.
I create 1 main report with 10 sub-reports that contain cross-tabs & charts. The main report has a parameter regarding 3 different areas: region1, region2, and region3.
I use the method of adding the u2018regionu2019 parameter of main report to the selection formula of the sub-reports. So, I can select 'region' from main report to controll outputs in sub-reports by region.
I use formulas for chart titles, e.g.:
Select {Product Code}
Case 'a111':
u2018Region1 u2013 a111 Counts'
Case u2018b222u2019:
u2018Region1 u2013 b222 Counts'
u2026
u2026
Default:
u2026
Since I pass the u2018regionu2019 parameter of main report to sub-reports, I have to change chart titles dynamically based on the region I select.
How can I use the region parameter from main report in the formulas to get chart titles dynamically?
Thank you in advance.

Thank you.
I am not using Chart Title with "Chart Expert".
I am using a formula for chart titles, e.g.:
Select {Product Code}
Case 'a111':
u2018Region1 u2013 a111 Counts'
Case u2018b222u2019:
u2018Region1 u2013 b222 Counts'
u2026
u2026
Default:
u2026
I drag this formula above the charts and it looks like a dynamic title. So, for product a111, the chart title would be "Region1 u2013 a111 Counts"; for product b222, the chart title would be "Region1 u2013 b222" Counts; and so on ...
Because I pass the region parameter from master report to subreport, I want to change the region part of the chart titles dynamically.
For example,
when select Region1, the chart titles should be: "Region1 u2013 a111 Counts"; "Region1 u2013 b222"; ...
when select Region2, the chart titles should be: "Region2 u2013 a111 Counts"; "Region2 u2013 b222"; ...
I want to add the region parameter into the tiltle formula.
How should I do?

SSRS parameters are not valid in subscription, but are valid when run report on-demand

What is the cause?
Somebody has also that problem? Can it be the report or the SSRS server itself?
The SSRS is also not always consequent. So share me your experience.
Thanks!

Sorry did understand what the issue is. Have you set a default value for parameters?

Pdf report not saving in to the local system

Hi,
I am facing some issue with PDF report. We have written code to generate PDF report using java to generate the report we have used the jasper API. We were able to generate the pdf report and we have written a code to appear the ��save as�� dialog box (to save the PDF report). In the ��Save As�� dialog box---��in the ��Save as type�� dropdown box there is no tag for *.pdf.
Also if are giving manually some temp.pdf as the file name also it is saving on to local machine.
Please kindly post the solutions.
The java script code is:
var myWin = window.open('temp.pdf', , 'left=5000,ScreenX=5000');
myWin.document.execCommand('SaveAs',true, 'temp.pdf');
myWin.close();

That is not his problem. He want to force the client to automatically save the file and lock the filename somehow.
That, fortunately, is not possible. Him is also been told that here: http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5185876

Classic Report not retrieving when accessing the first time

I have two classic reports on two separate tabs and the first time that I access the tabs, the report does not retrieve. However, if I tab off and then back onto the tab, the report will retrieve.
Any idea why these two tabs are not retrieving when initially accessing the tab?
I have several other tabs in the same application that retrieve properly when initially access them.
Thanks,

I think I remember something like that happening to me because there were variables that were not initialized properly that the report used.

Firefox and juno e-mail are not compatible. The writing on the juno website does not fit in to the available space.

The writing on juno is not lined up with the signs. eg. for delete, the writing is below the sign, not next to it. The writing is below the available space and flows into the next space and sometimes is not visible at all. I know the website, so I know where to click. Sometimes it works, at other times it does not.
However, when I get a pop up from a site that asks for info if I want to enter a contest, I cannot sent the info since it is cut off.
I did not have this problem when I used Internet exploreer

I'm still trying to figure all of this out, but I was thinking my only option would be to use the Express in client mode, where it would function solely to stream music and not as a wireless hotspot.
That's a good option. Configure the Express to "join a wireless network" and it will not affect the speed on your wireless network.
If I were to connect the Airport Express to the Airport Extreme via wired Ethernet connection, what would that do for me?
The Express will still be creating a "g" wireless network, but it won't affect the AirPort Extreme's network because you are connected using Ethernet. This would be a good option if you need more wireless coverage in the area where the Express is located. But, the Ethernet connect will have to remain permanent for this to work correctly.

Dynamically Set Subreport Background Color to the Same Value as Main Report Background Color

I have a report that contains a subreport. The main report has groupings in it. I am dynamically setting the background color of the group rows based on an expression. That part is working fine. The problem that I am having is that
I don't know how to get the subreport to "inherit" the background color of the grouping that holds it.
Basically, I have different row shadings on my report differentiating the groupings except for the rows where the subreport shows.
How do I go about setting the subreport background color to equal it's contaiing grouping's background color? Thanks in advance for any and all assistance provided.

The parameter method given by gpshukla will send the info to the subreport, but you don't need the color parameter in the main report, only the subreport. The trick is in setting the value of that parameter.
Right-click the cell with the embedded subreport, you can select subreport properties.
Select Parameters and add a parameter.
The name column is the name of the parameter in the subreport (color) and value is the value to set it to.
Set name to "color" (no quotes).
Set Value to the same expression used to set the background color for the row.
In the subreport, click the design surface to select the report (not header or footer).
In the properties pane, select background color and choose expression from the dropdown.
Type =Parameters!color.Value into the expression builder.
This will work assuming that background color in the main report row will not change without also refreshing the subreport.

Subreport on the same page as main report

I have a supreport designed to print on the same page as the main report. The subreport is alligned with the main report in the design view, but when I print it, the columns do not align.

Right click any field ( on the main report the subreport is just like a field)
on the local menu select "Size and Position"
in the dialog box set X to 0 leave all the other fields ( BTW is X non zero?)

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

Crystal Reports 10, Want to pass values from subreports to main report

Post Author: playmkr278
CA Forum: General
Is there a way to just share values out of subreports.
The reason I ask is that I am having problems pulling the correct information in one subreport so I'd like to use 2 subreports to pull out Billable hours on one and Billed Hours on another and then add them together to display on the main report.

Yep there is!
In your sub report
I the formula editor create a shared variable then create the same variable in your main report.
EG
IN your SUB
Create new formular called tothrs etcu2026..
whileprinting records;
shared numbervar tothrs: sum({table.fieldname}]
In Your Main Report
whileprinting records;
shared numbervar tothrs
this passes the value from your sub to the main, check help for different types of format as the one above is only for a number there are others for time & date etc..
hope this helps!
I have been doing a similar exercise myself but got stuck summing the parameter values in my main report, if you solve this let me know?
