I am struggling with getting only some group header rows to repeat on subsequent pages. I am using the advanced properties to set FixedData, KeepTogether, KeepWithGroup and RepeatOnNewPage. No combination seems to work. I need the first three rows to repeat because there is only text. The next 8 rows contain group totals that I do NOT want to repeat.
I saw this post:
SSRS 2008: How to repeat on new page one row of table header
but it didn't help me. I still get the TablixMember must have the same value set for KeepWithGroup property as those following or preceding the Dynamic TablixMember.
Thank you in advance.
This is because you are adding everything inside the group.
When you click on tablix row you see a "Insert Row" . When you click on it you can see a row to be added inside the group and outside the group.If you add the row inside the group(which we do and system does automatically) it repeats for every row. So please add a row saying outside the row and try to add sum of the rows in this column. I had similar problem it did solve.

My institution is using BI Publisher (Ms.Word add on) with Peoplesoft.
Now, I'm doing a report that will print a name and it's description in table format repeatedly. In some cases, the first and second row of the table will be separated in different page. I already tried to check the "Keep Lines Together" and deselect "allow row to break across pages" setting, but only worked with static table, not with table contains BI Publisher fields.
This is the screen shot (look at the red arrow).
First and second row of table are separated in different page
Anyone able to solve this issue? Thanks.
it was done..just create 1x1 table and set it to not allow break across pages. Then, put the the main table into that 1x1 table. Place the repeating tags outside the 1x1 table.
I solve this problem by this way.
Insert any filed into the bottom of the table,then change the filed property as
<?split-by-page-break:?>
I have a page with exactly same pre-format data in the left side than in the right and i need that my result query data that gives me example 10 records i need to show in the left side first record, in the right side second record on first page and then do the same with all records Now i make a first report wich calls another one, first report gives me data but i can only show one record per page in second report, i need 2 records per page, one in left side and another in another side of the page...
Assuming that each of your records will take up more than half a page, this should be as simple as changing the report to have 2 columns.
In iReport, select the report itself (top element) in the report inspector, then change the Columns property to 2. Alternatively, in the JRXML, add/change the attribute columnCount on the jasperReport element to 2.
If your records occupy less than half the page height each, you will end up with multiple records per column. To get around this, create a group with the expression $V{REPORT_COUNT} and check the "Start on a new column" property (set the isStartNewColumn attribute in JRXML). This will create a new column for each record.
I have a report that has 3 columns and it is grouped by a value that i display in the group header. The report is setup to run down then across.
If the details span across multiple columns, how do I repeat that group header on the next column.
I have already checked "repeat group header on each page" in the group expert.
I have already checked "format groups with multiple column" in the Layout tab of the details section.
It will not let me insert a text object in the group header of each column.
Not sure how to do this. I could write a formula to only show at the top of each column, but not sure if there is a function to find out when the second column has started.
edit
What i want is below
Group Header Text Group Header Text Group Header Text
Detail Values Detail Values Detail Values
Detail Values Detail Values Detail Values
I would like to have the Group Header Text show at the top of each column. Doesn't matter if its the start of a new group or in the middle of the group.
thanks.
okay, I have your solution, the field, that you are grouping by , just place it on to the page header and it will repeat itself on every page until the columns of that group are finished.
Lets say you are grouping by Employee Names, just put the Employee Name field on to the page header and it should solve the issue, I jsut tried it and it worked, thanks.
There is Previous() function available in formulas that allows to show-hide a Text Object based on the change of specific field value from previous to current record.
Is this what are you looking for? Can you edit you question drawing a sample af what you have and what you want?
Duplicated data is coming in my report because source table has duplicate data. Without creating group, I want to hide duplicate data writing expression. So what I did: I select table row and put a expression for hidden property of table row.
The expression was like =(Previous(Fields!ID.Value) = Fields!ID.Value)
but it did not work ... Still duplicate data is showing. So tell me how to suppress duplicate rows in ssrs writing expression not by grouping.
You probably should try these options first:
Try to clean the duplicate data at the source.
Change your source query so the duplicates don't appear in the dataset. (e.g. SELECT DISTINCT)
If not, on the row's Visibility Hidden property you can use the Previous function:
=iif(Fields!YourField.Value = Previous(Fields!YourField.Value), True, False)
You would have to sort on the YourField column for it to work.
I was putting the expression above also until I started using the "Hide Duplicates" line in the properties pane. You basically just select the row, in the dropdown choose your Dataset and that's it. any duplicates will be hidden. Also if you just want to hide certain textboxes duplicates you can do the same as i stated earlier except click on the textbox and not the row. Just another alternative, i'm aware you said using an expression.
You can do it using expression or "Hide Duplicates" options from cell or row properties.
Expressions :
=IIF(Fields!YourField.Value = Previous(Fields!YourField.Value), True, False)
Hide Duplicates Steps:
Select row or cell
Click on F4 key on your Keyboard
Look for "Hide Duplicates"
Choose your DataSet from the dropdownlist
Done, I hope that helps
As an alternative option, you can do it by setting row groups. In a report I was trying to create, the Hide Duplicates property wouldn't behave correctly because of using the same dataset multiple times in a list container.
All you need to do is set the row group properties for the default row group (rightclick the grey row header, and go to Row Group then Group Properties), and add Group expressions on the General tab. Add as many as you need for each field. It's like the Remove Duplicates tool in Microsoft Excel
Sometimes the Hide Duplicates option does apply to the report content. If you add a =Sum(Field!Field_Name.Value) sum around field in the cell, it suppresses the copy from previous record. Of course, strictly speaking this is a solution where the incoming data set has NULL rows for the cells with the issue.
Since the using of Previous function in SSRS compare to the only record previous to it, thus it might cause the duplicate of records still shown if the repeated records not next to each other.
Use the sorting on each table you apply the Previous function, it should resolve the "non next to each other" duplicate records as well.
Is it possible to have add a row to an SSRS 2008 Matrix that spans all of the matrix's columns?
This crude diagram shows roughly what I'm looking for:
The basic idea is that each line item is a person, and each column is a field in a form for that person. The fields themselves are dynamic (and implemented as column groups on the matrix). Additional column groups are included to append non-dynamic form fields, like the time the record was entered and who entered it. Under each person's record is a comments field, which should span all of the form fields above it.
At the moment I have the matrix embedded in another tablix, with the name and fields in the matrix and the comments in the parent tablix. This works for the data (each instance of the matrix ends up being one row), but the header repeats too often (once per person) because it's attached to the matrix. The only thought I have as to how to fix this is to create another matrix in the parent tablix with the same grouping and use it to display the headers... But this will require quite a lot of manual synchronization to keep the two matrices the same.
Edit: The key problem here is making the second row span multiple column groups.
Here's what you can do:
Select the column grouping you want to add above and right click and select
Add Group... Parent Group...
Group the column by something that will not aggregate the data. You'll have to select a field from your dataset to group by so that it creates an overlapping column grouping.
Check the Add group header box
You should now see something similar to this:
Now you just need to move the Value1 field and it's header over under the new column to the right beyond the matrix dividers. Once that's done, simply delete the ungrouped column where you just copied Value1 from and be sure to select Delete columns only checkbox.
Your finished product should look like this:
It is possible - And the above answers are partial answers leaving out one key step: Merging the cells of the child row.
First, right click on your grouped row, then select Insert Row -> Inside Group - Below and you will get two rows with the cells aligning on the columns
Second, ctrl click all the cells in your new row (ie row without the data) then right click on one of the highlighted cells, and then select Merge Cells.
Now you have the table you like. To add a value to the new row: first right click your new (multi column) cell,select Create Placeholder, and then add the dataset item you desire to the placeholder.
[Edit]
After several attempts, I'm going to say this isn't possible in SSRS. The best I could come up with is a group footer that spans columns 1,2, and 3, but not the User column.
[Original Response]
I recently did something similar to this.
First, what tool are you using to create SSRS reports? (I used SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio)
You'll want to create a row group (grouped on Person)
Append a row to your table in "Design" view (Right click, "Insert Row --> Inside Group - Below").
Add an expression to the row that pulls the value for your "Comment" column (=Fields!Comment.Value).
Let me know if that helps...
Try adding in you column group "header" with a grouping expression of (1=1). Then a detail field will need to be defined. If you define the other group with correct data then the "header" will stretch across all details columns. You may need to merger depending on other options.
The easiest way to do this is to create a Tablix with only one column, and your row grouping.
Then, you create two rows inside this group.
In the first row inside the group, you insert a Matrix, wich you can then subgroup as you prefer.
I just had a similar problem, and this was my solution.
I banged my head against the wall for a lot of time, until i realized the solution to my problem wasn't "making a cell span multiple column groups", but "making a cell split into multiple column groups".
You can accomplish the goal by using a subreport for each person. The subreport will receive the employee id and create the hierarchy for you. Make sure your subreport column widths match the widths of the parent report.
