I am attempting to join two datasets in to one tablix for a report. The second dataset requires a personID from the first dataset as its parameter.
If i preview this report only the first dataset is shown. but for my final result what i would like to happen is for each row of a student there is a rowgrouping (?) of that one students modules with their month to month attendance. Can this be done in report builder?
The best practice here is to do the join within one dataset (i.e. joining in SQL)
But in cases that you need data from two separate cubes(SSAS) the only way is the following:
Select the main dataset for the Tablix
Use the lookup function to lookup values from the second dataset like this:
=Lookup(Fields!ProductID.Value, Fields!ID.Value, Fields!Name.Value, "Product")
Note: The granularity of the second dataset must match the first one.
We had a similar issue and that can be resolved this way.
First of All, ensure the first data set's query and second data set's query are working fine by executing separately on the Database client tool such as Datastudio.
Build two data sets on SSRS tool with the respective queries and make sure both the data sets have same key column (personID).
On the SSRS report design, create a table from tool box and add the required columns from the first data set along with the matching key column(personID). Add a new column and use look up function to get the required column from the other data set against the same key column (personID).

My SQL Table contains RmaNumber, RmaLineNumber and Warehouse, and then a whel lot of other details.
We want to filter (using a parameter) on warehouse to produce a list of RMANumbers and RMALinenumbers to choose from. The problem is that when I include the RmaLineNumbers it makes the dataset to large to display in Crystal Reports.
So I tried splittin the data into 2 tables - the first table contains the Warehouse and RMANumber. The second table contains the RmaNumber and RmaLine Number. The idea is that I put a parameter on the first table to select the warehouse and it returns a list of RMANumbers (a manageable size data set)Then the user will select which RMANumbers they want and from that list I want to filter (parameter) From the second table to see the line numbers (a smaller dataset) then the report will display the details based on the line number chosen. Is what I am trying to do possible in Crystal? is there another way around the issue of the dataset being to large?
I am working on ssrs which uses a table. I need to get values into the table from two dataset which comes from single datasource.
you can define the over all table data set to one of the data sets which is used maximum to pull in the values to the table. For columns which has to use the second data set, in the Expression properties window, select the Dataset from the Catogery list and then you can select the dataset name and the valuew associated with it.
If you're using SSRS 2008 R2 you can use the Lookup() function in an expression in your table to pull in values from other datasets based on a lookup key or other joinable field. Lookupset() would allow you to retrieve multiple records at once if you need to deal with a 1:many relationship.

This will not work if you're on plain old 2008.
I have a query with 3 parameters that a user should be able to define:
AND (ORION_SCHED.TRIP.DATE_TIME = '09/11/2012')
AND (ORION.CUST.COUNTRY = 'BE')
AND (ORION_SCHED.TRIP.ID_SHIFT ='1')
DATE_TIME should be a datepicker
COUNTRY dropdown with defined values
ID_SHIFT dropdown with defined values
I guess this isn't an issue?
The result of this query will return the dataset
My actual question: I want the result to be presented in this way
So always 3 blocks of data next to each other, the data of every block is the result of the query filtered down on the column TRUCK_ID (a sub-select of the returned dataset)
The empty cells per block are a nice to have, these are non-unique values per TRUCK_ID that I don't wish to be repeated on every line, but like I said a nice to have.
I would add a new column to the query that returned 1,2 or 3 (for each different TRUCK_ID. Then I would use 3 Tablix (one per column on your report) and filter the data by the new column you added on the query.
Then you just group on the TruckID on each tablix and play around with the format. It should work.
I am developing an SSRS 2008 report. I created one dataset to give me the records I want. I also created a different dataset that determines access based on security profiles of the person running the report. What I want to do now is join the results of this second dataset with those of the first dataset in T-SQL. So I would like to perform this join within the T-sql sproc for the first dataset. How do I do this? Note that in most cases the results of the second (security) dataset is more than one record.
Are both datasets coming from the same database? You can probably wrap this logic in a stored procedure instead.
I'm trying to create a report that will contain two pie charts. I get the data for the report from SQL.
Currently, I created a dataset for the first chart which holds records with the following fields: Import ID, Date, Status. This dataset contains duplicate records.
For the second chart, I need the same data I have in the first dataset, only without duplications and aggregated differently.
I realize that I can create another dataset that will get the distinct values from the SQL database, but I was wondering if there was a way to use the built-in filtering functionality to filter out the dataset I already have to return only distinct values (based on ID field).
Looking at the options in the following filtering dialog, I see no obvious way to do this:
If ID is not unique and your 1st query looks like this:
select ImportID, Date, Status
from YourTableSource
WHERE YourConditions
Then you probably should use for your 2nd query form like this:
select DISTINCT ImportID, Status
from YourTableSource
WHERE YourConditions
If changing the query is not an option ,then you may create the Group in ssrs with invisible DETAIL pane and place the ID and Status fiels in int Group pane
