I have a SSRS report that has a list which includes two embedded tables.
For these tables if I set the header rows to repeat on each page, I get an error "All tablix member elements in a TablixColumnHierarchy must have the RepeatOnNewPage Property set to false".
How do I fix this and make the headers repeat on each page?
Thank you.
In design mode while editing the rdl file, at bottom of the editor you will find Row Groups and Column Groups (left and right, respectively). Beside Column Groups you will find one arrow button ▼ (this arrow button is at the right side of the column groups portion). Click on this arrow button.
Check Advanced Mode
In the RowGroups section you will find '(Static)' and '(Details)'. click on/highlight (Static) and press F4 (to check its properties on the Properties window.)
Set Keep With Group to After
Set Repeat On New Page to True
Go back to table, right-click on the row header (the grey bar), and select to Tablix Properties.
Check on Repeat header columns on each page and repeat header column on each Row. (Edit as of VS2012 at least he might mean Repeat header rows on each page)
Its nothing but a property for the report named RepeatOnNewPage is false. If you click on the page header and go for page header properties
General --> Display header for this page -> Print on first page and print on last page(check all the boxes over here )and click ok
Run the report. This is done on report builder 3.0 .I am not sure which tool you are using.
Or you can follow this
Select the Tablix.
In the grouping pane, click on the small triangle and select "Advanced Mode" to show static members.
In the row group hierarchy, select the corresponding (static) item of the header row.
In the Properties grid:
set RepeatOnNewPage to True

I have been working on reports in Sql Server Reporting services and I am trying to create a tabbed report.
I wish to have a main report which read in parameter details from the user then in the report there are tabs to other reports which use the same parameter details entered by the user on the main report.
Anyone got any idea how to go about this ? Have tried creating subreports but it doesnt quite create that overall feel of a tabbed report.
There is no native feature for tabs, but you can create that functionality with a combination of existing features.
Add textboxes along the top which will be your tab names.
Add a hidden parameter which will track which tab is selected. Have the first value selected by default.
Add an action to each textbox which goes back to the report with a specific value passed to the parameter.
Add an expression to the border properties of each textbox so that you can visually see which one is selected. For example you can remove the bottom border for the selected tab.
Add a visibility expression to everything else on the report so that the items only show up when their tab is selected.
Now each time you click a tab, it will refresh the report and show that tab highlighted along with the content it contains. It's a lot of steps, but it's the best workaround I've found for this feature.
I am supposed to show textbox based on Tablix. It will be appear on the page where the tablix exists. It stops showing when the report page doesn't exist on the page. How can I achieve it?
I am thinking of using reportItems but I don't know exactly how.
I have already one column in my tablix for using reportitem. Can I have two report items in the same tablix( that one I am not sure too)?
Am I clear in explaining my issue?
Rather than checking if the Tablix exists on a page, perhaps think about what data causes the Tablix to exist.
Say your Tablix is displaying data on dogs, but on one of your pages you don't have any valid dogs, so no Tablix. In this case you could check for this in the Hidden property of the Text Box:
=IIF(Count(Fields!DOG_ID.Value) = 0, True, False)
(For the opposite of this, a Tablix has a NoRowsMessage property you can set rather than needing an extra Text Box.)
Goto the properties of the text box and then goto Visibility. Select "Show or hide based on expression" and click on the [fx] button.
To show or hide depending if the Tablix returns any data or not:
Then enter the below: =iif(CountRows("NameOfTheDataseOfTheTablix") < 1,True, False)
I am creating a report that for the most part is populated automatically by using variables, parameters with my datasource and dataset. I am trying to add in another column that will have a checkbox, where when the user pulls a report he or she can manually go in and click a check box for various rows. The clicked check box is done by the user and there is no need to send or retrieve data with this check box. Is there a simple solution to where I can add a checkbox for the user to check (and uncheck) various boxes?
SSRS does not deliver this kind of functionality. You would need to have a flag for every displayed row somewhere in your database and add two images to your report, a checked and one unchecked "checkbox" image, show those images on each row (source over expression) based on the flag of the row. Add an action to the image, that executes a storedProc and flags or unflags the row (pass an unambiguous id as parameter).
This is rather dirty, but would work.
I have a customer dimension. While creating cube and defining dimensions the default attributes will come along with the cube creation. I want to add some more attributes after creating the dimensions. How to do this. I tried with "Add Business Intelligence" option, but I failed. Is there any way to do like that. If we remove the dimension and add the dimension again, we can have a interface as "Select dimension attributes". But with out deleting the existing dimension, how to add the attributes to that dimension. Following screen illustrates adding dimension attributes. How to see this interface for existing dimension.
After clicking the dimension attribute tab and clicking on the "Edit datasource" option.. following screen is showing. Here where we can add the attributes?
Assuming that your DSV includes the columns that you want to add as attributes, and assuming that you have an existing dimension, you cannot open the Dimension Wizard again to add more attributes to your dimension. Instead, on the Dimension Structure page (as shown in Diego's screen shot), you have the Attributes pane on the far left where each attribute is listed and you have the Data Source View showing the diagram of your table. You drag a column from the diagram on the right to the Attributes pane on the left. That creates a new attribute.
The image above shows the cursor appearance as you drag the column into the Attributes pane. The image below shows the Attribute pane after you release the mouse button - the new attribute appears as shown.
you have to edit the DSV.
On the "Dimension Structure", "Data Source View" tab, right click any blank space and select "Edit Data Source View". It will bring you to the DSV. Do the changes you want on the DSV and they should be available to be picked as attributes once you get back to the "Dimension Structure"
The solution by #Stacia will work if the Dimension is based of a Named query.
If the dimension is based of the table then the "Data Source View" window is empty you cannot drag attributes.
The solution is to add the attributes manually. Click "View Attributes as List" and add the attributes manually. Please see the link below. This helped me.

I am building a SSRS 2005 report that has potentially multiple pages. I would like to put in a hyperlink so that it appears on the top of every page. The hyperlink links back to the same report - basically I have a "summary" and "detail" mode and want to have hyperlinks to switch between.
So far I tried two approaches:
Put a textbox in the body, and in Properties -> Navigation, jump to a report. This works fine except it only shows on the very first page.
Drag the same textbox in the header of the report. Now it appears on every page, but clicking on it results in an error message: "The source of the report definition has not been specified".
google turned up nothing, what now?
Thanks.
The best way to do this is to implement the summary report to drill-down into the detail report and use the data on the detail row of the summary report's table to access the detail of that row as a detailed report. For example, let's assume the summary report is a list of invoices with total billed, and the detail report shows the items that were on that invoice.
Right-click the InvoiceNumber field in the detail row of the table and choose Properties
Click the Navigation tab
Click the Jump to report radio button and select the detail report from the drop down list
Click the Parameters button and fill in the parameter name and value - in this example, the parameter name might be InvoiceNumber and the parameter value would be =Fields!InvoiceNumber.Value
Click OK twice and you now have a hyperlink from the summary report to the detail report where the user can drill-down to get the detail of each invoice
Its also good to give a visual indication that this is a hyperlink so I set the Color to MediumBlue
If you just want to link directly to the complete detail report from the summary report and vice versa, you can use the same style on navigation settings but this time do it on a textbox on the header row of your table and make sure that the header has the RepeatOnNewPage property set to True so that it appears on every page.
To make your report go back to the home page
Right-click the Title field in the detail row of the table and choose properties
Click the Navigation tab
Click the Bookmark ID and type ="Home" Click OK twice now have a hyperlink to the home page
Place a text box on where pages are being created then right click on it and choose properties
Click the Navigation tab
Click the Jump to report radio button and put ="Home" Click OK twice
type the word Home in the box
