Percentage SSRS - two datasets - sql-server

I've had a look at several questions which are answered on here and I seem to be doing it right bu the percentage is coming out a little different than expected.
Here's the expression:
=SUM(Fields!Dig_Team.Value,"PivotTable_1") / COUNT(Fields!Dig.Value,"Form_Count")
I am just looking for the percentage difference between the two. PivotTable_1 has the "total" and "Form Count" is the number difference I am trying to work out.
Pivot is a total from a pivot table and the Count dataset is just a basic COUNT([Table]) field.
As it stands two values to work from are:
Pivot = 175 Count = 16
My percentage shows as 8.21% (formatted the text box field as percentage)
Calculators and websites show this should be around 9.1%..
Any help or ideas on where I am going wrong?

Figured I could just use the totals which are output by the report.
=ReportItems!Textbox127.Value / ReportItems!Barrierman1.Value

SSRS - show missing axis on column chart where there are no values?

I have a column chart in SSRS that looks like the attached. This shows the percentage of calls across the day. I have been asked to also show the hours on the chart where there were zero calls.
I have tried adding this into my dataset in SQL however this turned almost 200 rows into 20000 rows (due to the period of time looked at which can sometimes be years)
I have tried using the lookup function to add a time dimension into my report, and then join the dataset onto this time dimension - I then found out that I can't use SUM in a lookup function so I am a bit stuck. Does anyone have any workarounds for this?
Value expression is "=Sum(Fields!Calls.Value) / Sum(Fields!Calls.Value, "UsageSummary")"

Vlookup from multiple criteria to display nearest answer

I was hoping someone can help me. I have hit a solid wall.
I have a table with product information included and I am building a calculator which should spit out a number of options based on set criteria which is in the table. I am failing at just pulling through a code. I feel rather embarassed asking about how to do a vlookup here. But basically I have a vlookup which depends on multiple criteria and for the calc to cough out the nearest match (if applicable) based on this criteria.
Criteria 1 = Product
Criteria 2 = Type
Criteria 3 = Height
Criteria 4 = Min
I have created a search key in the table to concatenate all of these columns and then done a vlookup, which is =Vlookup(Criteria1 & Criteria2 & Criteria3 & Criteria4, Table Data, Code Required) But this does not appear to be giving me results, it either coughs out an error or the incorrect product. Below is my data and my calc I am hoping to complete. Can someone please help?
Here is an example looking for a closest match on Min. It demonstrates the principle so you can extend.
The closest match formula part is:
MATCH(MIN(ABS(E2:E4-K2)),ABS(E2:E4-K2),0))
Column E for column with Min values in. And K2 for target Min. This is an array formula entered with Ctrl + Shift+Enter. You would adjust the range of E2:E4.
The multiple criteria part is using:
=MATCH(lookup_value_1&lookup_value_2&lookup_value_3, lookup_array_1&lookup_array_2&lookup_array_3, match_type)
Where you are concantenating your parameters and searching for a match of the concatenation of those parameters in the table (you could do this against the key column if the key is made up of the same parameters.)
Overall formula with some test data (using one estimate figure):
=INDEX(F:F,MATCH(K1&K5&J5&INDEX(E2:E4,MATCH(MIN(ABS(E2:E4-K2)),ABS(E2:E4-K2),0)),B:B&C:C&D:D&E:E,0))
Above entered combined formula remember is an array formula so entered with Ctrl+Shift+Enter . You can reduce the ranges from entire columns to only those rows holding data.
Data data:
I am not typing all that out from picture so here is a quick n dirty
I tried with the QHarr's solution but it didn't work with all the rows.
My solution is:
Add a column with:
=IF(E2 < $K$2, E2, 0) and copy for all rows
In L5 create the formula:
{=INDEX(F2:F19,MATCH($K$1&K5&$J$5&INDEX(E2:E19,MATCH(MAX(SI(B2:B19=$K$1,1,0)*IF(C2:C19=K5,1,0)*IF(D2:D19=$J$5,1,0)*G2:G19,0),E2:E19,0)),B2:B19&C2:C19&D2:D19&E2:E19,0))}
Copy the formula to L6 and L7

Originally marked this as answered and it did work initially but as I added more products it began to fail. I did manage to (after much trial and error) find a simple solution {=INDEX(Calc!$I$2:$I$189,MATCH(Output!$H$7,IF(Calc!$B$2:$B$189=Output!A12,Calc!$H$2:$H$189),1))}

SSRS Totaling column with many groups

I have an SSRS report thats query returns many results. They are grouped to aggregate them by item group and division, as well as a couple of other groups. Whats happening is the total line is taking the total for ALL of the result lines instead of the grouped lines.
I have tried adding a scope to the sum expression in the report but to no avail. All I really need it to do is sum up the visible columns.
Heres a shot of my groups:
If i run the report, look at the totals for the columns, they are way off:
This should be 29,329 but it is (i believe) totaling everything outside of the groups.
Is there a way to just sum the column so I can get the amount desired?
You may need to recreate your groups again.
from the looks of your diagram, your total row is Outside your group Item_Process_Group, so the [sum(Sales_Quantity)] is summing all groups (as your comment suggest.
If your total ([sum(Sales_Quantity)]) was on the (empty)cell above where its displayed on the pic above, it should total correctly

Efficient Excel formula for returning multiple matches from a large number of rows

I'm stumped by a major issue. I have a data set consisting of about 16000 rows (could be more in future). This list is basically a price list containing products and their corresponding installation fees. Now the products are classified by the following hierarchy: City -> Category -> Rating/Type. Before I was using named ranges to refer to each set by concatenating City & Category & Rating (_XYZ_SPC_9.5). This resulted in about 1500 named ranges which inflated the size of the Excel file. So I decided to calculate the products on-the-fly using inputs from the user. I have tried array formulas and simple formulas but they take some time to calculate (16000 rows!!) which is not acceptable from a usability perspective; our sales people are very particular about how much time they have to spend on the tool.
I have uploaded a sample file at:
Price List Sample
Formulas that I have used so far are:
=IFERROR(INDEX($H$6:$H$15000, SMALL(INDEX(($AE$9=$R$6:$R$15000)*(MATCH(ROW($R$6:$R$15000), ROW($R$6:$R$15000)))+($AE$9<>$R$6:$R$15000)*15000, 0, 0), AC3)),"Not Available")
{=IFERROR(INDEX(ref_PRICE_LIST!$H$6:$H$16074,MATCH(INDEX(ref_PRICE_LIST!$H$6:$H$16074,(SMALL(IF(IF(RIGHT($AE$3,3)="All",ref_PRICE_LIST!$Z$6:$Z$16074,ref_PRICE_LIST!$R$6:$R$16074)=$AE$3,ROW(ref_PRICE_LIST!$H$6:$H$16074)-ROW(ref_PRICE_LIST!$H$6)+1),$AC3))),ref_PRICE_LIST!$H$6:$H$16074,0),1),"Not Available")}
I would really appreciate if someone can help me out.
Thank you so much!
I think the best way to speed this up is to split the formula into a helper column K and a reult column L
Helper Column (copy down for all 16,000 data rows)
=IF($D:$D=$O$2,ROW(),"")
Result column (starting at L2, copy down as many as you need)
=IFERROR(INDEX($F:$F,SMALL($K:$K,ROW()-1)),"Not available")
I've tested this with about 150,000 rows and it updates in < 1s

Reporting Services Chart - Hard Coded Series

I am developing an SSRS 2008 report which contains a number of simple charts. On the x axis I have the 12 months of this year - Jan 2009 thru December 2009. On the Y is an integer value ranging from 0 to 100 in increments of 10. I am plotting the number of times an issue occurred per month. So January could have a value of 10, February 30, etc. etc.
I would like to have a horizontal line/series that is constant and shows the yearly average for 2008. So, say the average was 30 issues per month in 2008, I would like for that line to be shown in my chart. Basically, I want to draw a straight line across the chart for that value... I can see how to add more complex series, but this seemingly simple task is getting the better of me.
Doe anyone have any idea how this could be accomplished?
Thanks in advance,
Jason
[Update] To add some further details, I am already pulling the average for each row in my dataset and have it set up as its own series. However, rather than plotting a line, this approach plots individual points for each month. While this is close to what I want, I need to join the dots so to speak. The chart is of the Error Bar (Range) variety.
Can you use a column / line hybrid chart? If so then add a constant or dynamic target value to the chart:
Design the chart.
On the Data tab in the Chart Properties dialog box, add a new data value (for example, Target).
Set the target value (see the example in Figure 9 on link this uses a constant target value of 100000 across all categories but you can do it dynamically too). Make sure to use an expression starting with = (equals). Otherwise, the value is not interpreted as a numeric value.
See the example on the MS charts page at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa964128.aspx
Add the yearly average to each row in the underlying the query. Add data series on just that value.
I managed to solve this issue myself.
As I mentioned, I was using an Error Bar graph. Right-clicking on the series of interest, I was able to change the graph type for that particular series - essentially leaving me with a chart with multiple graphs in it...particularly simple if you know where to look - which i did not! Thanks everyone for your suggestions.
