These are my query results:
But I want to merge the MemberName column when the member is the same. But the values in the other columns still need to display separately. How can I make my report use the following format?
Create a Group for SIno at the lowest level, if you don't have one already. Suppress the header and footer of this group.
Then add this formula to the suppression logic for SIno, Member Name, and Sanity Code:
{SIno} = PREVIOUS({SIno})
After discussing your needs in the comments, I recommend the following: Set your report such that it doesn't have any borders, and instead have the background color alternate between white and gray. Group based on SIno if you haven't already, and set the background color to:
IF GROUPNUMBER MOD 2 = 0 THEN crWhite else crSilver
I do this all the time with my reports. It looks professional, and the customers understand it:

I have SSRS report data where we will have two different thing in some of the cells, For example:
Old Values in SourceDB
FirstName LastName
Robin Son
BOB Alice
Updating the DB values:
FirstName LastName
Robin S
BOB A
After some update, we will have the changes and new & old values in Audit Table so the report will be created like this.
FirstName LastName
Robin was: Son now: S
BOB Was: Allice now: A
Is it possible to have the Was value in Red color and the now value in Green Color.
In worst case if it is not possible how to make the whole cell value into red.
Thanks for the suggestions or answers or even feedback's are appreciated.
If you can't change your Audit table per Ashiko's very sensible recommendation to hold the Was and Now values in seperate columns, you will need to parse out the relevant parts of your string value in your report.
One way you can do this is through placeholders that have expression based values. In your SSRS table, add 4 placeholders to a table that is based on your Audit dataset, with the following expressions as their Label and Value:
Was: - ="Was: "
Old Value - =replace(left(Fields!LastName.Value,instr(Fields!LastName.Value," Now:")-1),"Was: ","")
Now: - ="Now: "
New Value - =mid(Fields!LastName.Value,instrrev(Fields!LastName.Value,":")+2,99999)
You can then format the individual placeholder items as you would normal text, with some one colour and others another.
If you do this correctly, you should end up with something like this:
Design View:
Rendered:
Do be aware though, that if you do resort to splitting your string values in this manner, if that pattern you are searching for (eg: Now: in the old value or : in your new value) you will get undesirable results in your report.
If this is an entirely internal report for monitoring purposes, this is probably not an issue. If this will be customer facing however, I strongly recommend that you add additional columns to your Audit table for the Old and New value to allow you absolute control.
Did you try this?
Select the cell
Click F4 to open cell properties or right click the properties
In font tab , Select Color
4 Select Underneath Expression
5 Write as
=iif(Fields!ColumnName.Value = "WAS","Red","Green")
I am trying to achieve a result like below (edited in paint):
But so far I have only achieved this:
As you can see, I get whitespace cells between the timestamps and values above, probably due to the cells above that is manuipulating the tablix layout.
How can I make the values cells become "snapped" next to the timestamps like the first picture?
This is how it looks in SSRS:
According to your image, seems you could not achieve your goal in your current Tablix design . you need to change your report design using list , like below:
(add one more table in the list to display header)
In this scenario , you should make sure that you have the full records under the group Meter2 and Interval2 to make up the column group cells.
Otherwise you could get like below:
I have a SSRS report.
I have an order columns.
I want to mark both rows where order is changing in yellow
How to do like this?
Give this a try. Make a Parent Group on your STR_ORDER_ID. Don't create a header and remove the column only (after you create the group). The only issue here is that you'll get the coloring on the first and last row of the report.
=IIF(RowNumber("GroupName") = CountRows("GroupName"), "LightBlue",
IIF(RowNumber("GroupName") = 1, "LightBlue","Silver"))
In SSRS report, I want to perform conditional color formatting where highest rank should be Green and lowest rank should be Red within a Regional Manager group as shown below
Note: Couple of options, I was thinking of includes
I am using custom code function, for deriving Min and Max value, and somehow if I can include grouping filter on Regional Manger then it could work, but don't know if that's possible
In dataset, I create extra columns for each column and store Min\max value in it. But less keen towards this option, since I have 24 different ranks and which would mean, I will need 24 different columns along with current 40 attributes
Any help would be appreciated
I know you don't want to do this for each column, but despite your misgivings it is probably the best approach. Based on my previous answer to your earlier related question you can colour the min and max for each group as follows.
Create a table with fields store, atvrank, and btvrank
Right click the row header, and select Add Group -> Row Group - Parent Group, and choose Regional Manager. Set the Group name to RegionalManagerGroup
Then set the background colour for your cells to
=iif(Fields!atvRank.Value = min(Fields!atvRank.Value, "RegionalManagerGroup"),
"Green",
iif(Fields!atvRank.Value = max(Fields!atvRank.Value, "RegionalManagerGroup"),
"Red",
"White"
)
)
This now finds the maximum and minimum within the current group instead of the whole dataset. You will need to set this expression for each field individually, but this is probably less effort than returning new rows from the database to determine the maximum and minimum for each field.
This approach will give the following output
Please seriously consider this solution. If you have further questions, please just ask.
The Problem
I'm building an SSRS report which requires regular group headings on certain rows. The data returned from the database query includes a column with a bit flag indicating which rows need to be treated as group subheadings.
Here's a snippet of the source data:
Note the IsGroupHeading column, where the flag is set to 1 on the first row ("0401").
I want to produce output which looks like this Excel mockup:
So every time the report encounters a row where IsGroupHeading equals 1, it generates a bold group heading row followed by a row with column headings.
What's Happening
I've tried creating a row group in SSRS with the expression =Fields!IsGroupHeading.Value = 1 but I get unexpected results: (1) Only the first group heading is treated specially, and (2) the group heading row is repeated underneath the heading. The result looks like this:
Notice that the "0401" row is repeated under the group heading. In addition, only the first group heading ever gets this special treatment. The report simply ignores subsequent group headings and renders them as normal data rows.
The Question
I've spent hours trying to get this right and this is the closest I've been able to get it and my googling on row groups turns up pages mostly about creating subtotals, so I'm throwing this one out to the community hoping some SSRS experts can help me with this.
I'm going to assume that you're doing this in SQL and that all tariff numbers start with the group header tariff number (in this case, 0401).
Let's say your SQL currently looks like this:
SELECT TariffNumber, RowDescription, TariffRate, IsGroupHeading
FROM Tariffs
What we want to do is join this table on itself to give the group TariffNumber and RowDescription columns on each row to enable us to group on it. We also want to exclude the GroupHeader Tariff from the Details rows. So we get something like this:
SELECT TariffGroup.TariffNumber AS GroupNumber, TariffGroup.RowDescription AS GroupDescription,
TariffDetail.TariffNumber, TariffDetail.RowDescription, TariffDetail.TariffRate
FROM Tariffs AS TariffDetail
INNER JOIN Tariffs AS TariffGroup ON TariffGroup.TariffNumber = Left(TariffDetail.TariffNumber, CharIndex(TariffDetail.TariffNumber, '.')-1) AND TariffDetail.IsGroupHeader = 0
Now you just need to group on GroupNumber and you're done.
