I have created a table like below. The table use a dataset
I want to add several cells within one of the row like below and be able to query through the same dataset and most of all, be able to leave the other rows intact (see below).
Issue is I cannot do it within the table.
One of my workaround solutions, which is not satisfying to me , is to to create a rectangle then add another table / matrix within that rectangle (like I did in the image above). Then superimpose the rectangle in one of the cell of the table / matrix I want to split. However, when I'm deploying the report, I have an error tablix ‘Tablix15’ has a detail member with inner members. Detail members can only contain static inner members
The other solution is to create several columns then merge the cells of the rows I don't need and keep the cells I want. Drawback : Very tedious and lacking of flexibility
If you have any ideas on how to do it or fix the error above, I'm all ears.
Thanks!
Satisfying or not - the solution is to create a rectangle in the cell and add tablixes to this rectangle for the extra columns.
You are getting the detail member with inner members error as I imagine you are probably nesting Row Groupings.
Consider this example, showing a nested table.
When run like this I get the following error, exactly as you do above
The tablix ‘Tablix8’ has a detail member with inner members. Detail members can only contain static inner members.
This static inner members it refers to is saying that it isn't going to allow you to do more grouping at this lower level. This should be fine though based on the information you presented in the question, as you only want the values for this specific Row. Therefore, to remove the grouping, right click the Row Header, select Row Group -> Delete Group and then select Delete Group Only.
Note the (three lined) = symbol has disappeared from the Row header. When this report is then set to Preview, it now renders as expected
Hopefully this will solve your issue. Please let me know if you have further problems or queries on this.

I have the following DataSet on a SSRS report:
SELECT
VariationCode.Code
,VariationCoding.Comment
,VariationCoding.SubmissionDate
,VariationCoding.Id
FROM
VariationCode
INNER JOIN VariationCoding
ON VariationCode.Id = VariationCoding.VariationCodeId
WHERE VariationId = #VariationId
I am showing static headers on the left and data on the right which works fine but I'm struggling to group the results by ID and show them as a separate table per grouping.
Grouping the row by parent using VariationCoding.Id shows one table with no grouping at all. I suspect having the headers on the left is the problem since most solutions I've seen have the headers on top.
How can I show static headers on the left and group the results by VariationCoding.Id in such a way that each result will be displayed in a separate table?
group the results by ID and show them as a separate table per grouping.
You may want try Page break option, from Group Properties, screenshot for your reference.
I ended up using a list control to solve the problem as described on Microsoft docs -
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/reporting-services/report-design/create-invoices-and-forms-with-lists-report-builder-and-ssrs
A list data region repeats with each group or row in the Reporting
Services paginated report dataset. A list can be used to create
free-form reports or forms, such as invoices, or in conjunction with
other data regions. You can define lists that contain any number of
report items.
By creating a table with static columns on the left and nesting it inside the list control, I was able to bind the table data columns to the list data source and this grouped my custom table per record.
All:
I have the following data (see Raw Data attachment). Inside my SSRS Report, I have a column for "Name / Stream / Offer One / Offer Two" (Name is the column for the "Value" column shown in the image).
I need my SSRS Report to display one row of the "totals" for each Name. Then under this, I need a row for each Stream associated with the Name that displays the values for that stream.
For the SSRS Output (please see second screen shot). The data loads into my tablix, but I need one row for "BAG-CV" that displays the total for that Name. Then under this row, I need a row for "AR" stream with the data for.
If you see Name: JAC-FL, it has 5 streams listed under it. So I would need one row for the total of JAC-FL, then 5 rows under it listing all the streams associated with this name.
Hopefully this makes sense.
The concept that you are describing is a nested parent/child group (two levels of grouping in a single table). This is quite easy to do and I'll walk you through the steps for your particular scenario thanks to the helpful description and screenshots that you posted.
Create table: I would advise always starting with the innermost grouping and building the table outwards. In your case, the lowest data granularity is Stream/Offer1/Offer2 as these are displayed as raw details with no aggregation:
Add Parent Group For "Name": Click on the group at the bottom (or in the table) and add a parent group to the current table details group, making sure to include a group header (for the sum):
Screenshot #1:
Screenshot #2:
Add Fields: Add the additional fields to your table, ensuring that the middle row is using SUM aggregation as per the screenshot:
Results: You should see the additional header row on the parent group with the desired SUM.
Cleanup: The example above just creates the most basic and bare functionality. I would suggest cleaning it up and adding a visibility toggle on the details group:
PS. I realize you probably aren't in control of the database schema, but wow, exclamation marks in column names would drive me up the wall :)
I'm creating Report with Microsoft Visual Studio 2013.
PROBLEM:
If I'm adding new Row Group It automatically adding before table1_Details_Group
QUESTION: How to change order of the groups or add new group in right side of the table1_Details_Group?
EXPLAINATION:
For now, after adding row group It looks like:
Picture 1
As you see in picture 1 group is created in left side of table1_Details_Group
It should be like that:
Picture 2
As you see in Picture 2 is shown how I want to move Column3 with grouped rows.
If impossible to make that is shown in Picture 2, have you ideas how to add all group with parent and all childs to right side of table1_Details_Group as shown in Picture 3 below?
Picture 3
For anyone else coming here, you can insert a second detailed table inside a cell of the main table that has the detailed breakdown. This detailed table can be in any column without affecting the way rows are broken down in columns to the right or left.
So to solve the original question, first create Columns 1-3 in picture 1, and only include the data groupings required by those columns (ie. don't create the detailed row groupings for columns 4-5). Then insert the column where you want to show the detailed rows (ie between columns 2 and 3), and insert a new table inside that cell. This inner table will already be locked to share the same dataset as the main table. Then you can set the grouping of the inner rows and add whatever cells, rows or columns you need to the inner table. The columns to the right in the main table will still show the total, as in Picture 2.
I found solution, I don't know If It's good practice, but It worked for me.
I've created second table in right side, added similar group as in table1, and from new created table2 deleted all grouped columns, left only column which I needed, in this example Column3. So for now It looks like 1 table. Column1 and Column2 from Table1 are associated with Column3 from Table2.
You can change layoutdirection of table from LTR to RTL.
go to tablix properties and collapse localization and then change layoutdirection
I have had this same issue. The use of a second table was not perfect for me because when the report is viewed in HTML there is a space between the two tables, which looks weird (it worked fine in PDF view).
To resolve the issue, I created the table in picture 1 then removed all non-grouped columns (the table requires one visible column, so I had to keep a dummy column set to hidden).
Then I added new columns inside the grouping. In the cells for these columns I inserted another table. This inner table only has one cell with the value that I needed to display. The inner table then gets a filter so that it only displays values related to the current row of the parent table.
I am trying to create a batch report of multiple invoices using SSRS 2008 R2.
I have created the initial invoice report and have it set up with a parameter; the parameter uses an InvoiceID to populate the data within the invoice report.
I have created another report using lists, inside the list contains the information that was in my original invoice report but using a different parameter (BatchID). The problem I am running into with this is that instead of creating a single invoice for each invoiceID it is creating an invoice for each line item within each invoice. i.e.~ Instead of incorporating multiple items based on the InvoiceID (as the original report did) it is creating a report for each of the items.
What would be the best way of running a batch of these invoices? Am I going about this the wrong way or am I on the right track but missing something?
Thanks in advance!
SELECT i.InvoiceId, i.InvoiceNumber, i.BillTo_Line1, i.BillTo_Line2, i.BillTo_City, i.BillTo_StateOrProvince, i.BillTo_PostalCode, i.CustomerIdName,
i.ce_OutstandingBalance, i.ce_BillToDate, i.ce_BillFromDate, i.TotalAmount, id.ProductIdName, id.ce_customeridName, id.ce_CustomerProductName,
id.InvoiceDetailId, id.BaseAmount, id.PricePerUnit, id.ce_rate
FROM
Invoice AS i RIGHT OUTER JOIN
InvoiceDetail AS id ON i.InvoiceId = id.InvoiceId
Once I enter the invoiceID I get my report
My intent is to be able to run the report against multiple invoicesid numbers without having to select the invoice number itself. I have another table that collects the invoiceid's based on a batchid that they are run in.
So far I have attempted to create a subreport with the original report and Create a separate report that uses a list and attempt to group by InvoiceID for each batchid. Though with each of these I have so far been unsuccessful.
I am new to SSRS and have been pouring over documentation from MSDN about SSRS and the different abilities.
For this sort of repeating list, it's a matter of understanding how a list/grouping works.
Lists, Tables and Matrixes are all the same underlying object - the Tablix.
A List is a Tablix with one detail row (i.e. one Tablix row for each row in the Dataset), one textbox in that row, and a Rectangle in that textbox. The Rectangle can have various embedded elements like more textboxes and as such provides a repeating free-form item for each row in the Dataset.
You can see this when you create a List in the designer:
I assume your report query takes a BatchID and returns a number of invoices and their invoice details. I've taken some liberties with your data and created a simplified sample Dataset:
You want the Rectangle to repeat for every InvoiceNo. Currently the Row Group has no grouping item - change this to InvoiceNo under the Group properties and expand the Rectangle as required.
You can start adding in elements such as textboxes for the Invoice level items, something like:
Note that the left side of the Tablix has changed from lines to a bracket - this is because a grouping item was added to the Row Group.
This will repeat once for each InvoiceNo. Now we want to add the line items - you can do this by dragging a new Table into the Rectangle. Since we have a Row Group in place this table will only display items in that group:
When run for the sample data, this gives an ugly but functional repeating invoice report:
This could be tidied up as required, and page groups inserted between Group items in the Group properties as required.
Hopefully this at least gives you a rough idea of how you might go about your task.
I have a tablix on an SSRS report:
When I run the report it only returns 1 record!
I did a sql server trace, and the query that is being executed is returning 14 rows.
On the same report, I dropped another table, and put just one field on it, and it returns 14 as expected. I noticed that the difference between the one that works and that one that doesnt is:
How can I get those 3 horizontal lines on the one that doesn't work?
What could be my issue? What did I do wrong?
The screen shot shows you don't have any groups. You deleted the details group from the Tablix. You can add it back in by inserting a new group or building a new tablix object from scratch.
To add a group, click on a cell in the row that should have a group, in this case the [ReferredBy] cell. Select Add Group -> Row Group -> Adjacent Above. If your data is already grouped at the correct level of granularity, then select Show detail data in the Tablix Group screen. This will add the details triple bar in a row above your current row. If you need to group on something, then pick the field to group on. This will add a ) in a row above your current row. Copy and paste the contents of the cells in your existing row into the new row and delete your original row.
One row when you expect multiple sounds like a grouping issue. Debugging something like this I would create a new table element below the current one and drag and drop a single column from the dataset. If it returns 14 you know it is not the dataset being evaluated as a problem but the table's expression. If it is also only returning one you probably have a predicate, filter expression, or parameter setting limiting the scope down as well.
Probably, you set the expression for Textbox and not for the RowGroup.
Just find the Group Properties then put the same expression in Group On.
