I Have a request for the TOTAL's and subtotals column to be moved to the top/left of columns it represents, and by default SSRS does it on the bottom or right hand side of the columns being totaled. Is there a way to this?
I found my own solution, when you right click on the tiny green triangle, in the top right hand corner of the sub total column. Then select properties, and you can adjust the "Layout" property.. it has 2 options, Before and After.
You can just add a row which comes before your set of data, for each field you want to total just give that cell an expression which does a SUM() of that particular field.

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"))
How can I remove spacing between bars in SSRS 2012 report.
In design mode, select one of the columns in the chart.
In the Properties pane, look for CustomAttributes; expand that group.
Look for PointWidth within that property group. Change that value from 0.8 (the default) to 0.9 for the columns to be a little closer together. Change the value to 1 if you want your columns to touch. Adjust as desired.
They keep this one hidden, a bit.
You need to set the PointWidth property of the chart series to 1 if you want no space between, you can adjust this value to adjust the amount of space, the higher the number, the less space between, default is 0.8.
To get to this, click on one of the columns in the chart and then hit F4 to display properties (assuming Visual Studio here, I don't use report builder).
Under Custom Attributes, you will find PointWidth, change this value to 1 or maybe .095 to get a very narrow gap.
Background:
I have a table with say 40 columns reporting Employee Details. Where 39 of 40 columns are of Datatype varchar(10) and the 40th column, being Manager's comments, is of Datatype varchar(1000).
Problem:
The report is looking bad as due to one column the height of the complete row is increasing than normal expectation.
Solutions I thought of:
Increase width of column > Looking bad if no comments
SubString the data coming > Loss of data
Set CanGrow to False + set the Height for Row to have 2 data lines + Show text on tool tip + Export to excel link of a different report which has CanGrow as false > not very good solution
Can someone suggest a better way to handle one column with more text than the rest of them as even my 3rd approach is looking non-ideal to me?
Thanks in advance.
A little unconventional, but in situations like this I've put the last column in its own row beneath the other columns, merged all the cells in that row, and then grouped by the primary key. That makes a report in which you've got a two row SSRS group for each row in your query results, the first row contains all of the short columns and the second row contains just one long column. If there is a fairly short string in that last column, or an empty value, it will just take up one row. If there is a long string, then it will have space to expand vertically (if CanGrow=True), instead of expanding horizontally and making an impractically long report.
This may not meet all reporting purposes, but if the report is intended for visual use it can work well.
The best solution I could find was
Set CanGrow = False
Increase Width and set a generic Height
Show tooltip
Export to excel works fine and shows data unlike I expected (as the data is not truncated but just the textbox is restricted to show data in SSRS frontend)
This works for me as there is no data loss.
I have created a SQL Server 2005 matrix with a total column.
I want to be able to change the colors of the totals only so they stand out from the rest of the data. I can change the color of the "total" label, but not the actual data.
Can anyone give me a clue of how to do this?
To test whether or not a cell is a total or not, you need to use the InScope() Function along with a heavily nested If statement. Jorg Klein does a great job of exlplaing how this works within a matrix (here)
Select the Total box and you can set the color in the properties page. If you want all totals to appear in the same color, this will do.
You can also conditionally format them, by putting an expression in the color property.

Unless I'm mistaken, you can select the totals cell for editing it's properties by selecting the cell and then clicking on the small triangle in the upper corner of the cell.
Hope this helps,
