I Need to Sort the data in column/columns in Tablix(SSRS2016). The Sorting is working when I am opening only that table.rds . When i am executing the whole Project and opening that subreport it gives a error.
"one or more Parameters were not specified for the subreport, 'subreportname', located at: /__rdlname"
I don't understand why I Need a Parameter when I Need just to sort the data in column.
Can somebody help me ?
I did a right click on column Header -> TextBox properties -> Interactive Sorting
Enable interactive sorting on this text box
As I want to sort with the Groups
Choose what to sort:
I have Chosen Groups.
Then Sort by Field which was in drop down list.
in the end
OK.

I am working on a BIRT report. Its records are grouped on the basis of the status column. I was looking for an option in the Eclipse BIRT tool by which I can hide combinations of multiple columns in a row which are repeating. I have attached screenshots for both the current report and the expected report structure.
I tried the "suppress duplicate" option but that is limited to a single column. I am not able to apply this on multiple columns together. I couldn't figure out any other option. Please suggest any solution in the tool or do I need to change my query to return the result in the expected format?
Actual Result:
Expected Result:
There are three obvious ways to hide duplicate values.
All of these require you to configure this per column (BTW I don't understand why you consider this to be a problem).
As you already did: Use "suppress duplicates" at the column level.
Add more groups to your table after the existing group.
E.g. one group for the first column (whatever that is).
Then you can choose "Drop" "detail" in the properties of the corresponding group header cell. It's a bit difficult to get the layout right this way.
In your data set, if it's SQL, you can use a little construnct with CASE and the LAG analytic function to compare the column value to that of the previous row, and if they are equal, return NULL instead (pure SQL solution).
I have a report with several interactive sort columns for sorting/ranking various metrics. I would like to highlight the column or even just the column header that is sorted. Is there a property that will tell me which column the report is sorted on?
I have not been able to find any threads that address this question.
No - there are no properties in SSRS to let the code know that the column is being sorted.
If you wanted to put in the effort, you could add a parameter with column names for the sorting. Then just set the table or Groups SORTING by your parameter using a Switch statement and the background color of the header and/or data cell(s) using an IIF for each column for the color.
SORT EXPRESSION:
=SWITCH(Parameters!SORTING.Value = "NAME", Fields!NAME.Value,
Parameters!SORTING.Value = "AGE", Fields!AGE.Value)
Background Color Expression for a NAME column:
=IIF(Parameters!SORTING.Value = "NAME", "Whitesmoke", "White")
For the other columns, just use the column name.
To be a little slicker, you could use the ACTION on the column header for each field to set the parameter and recall the report rather than forcing the user to hit View Report. You would Specify the same report but Add the SORTING parameter and hard code the columns name (which has to be the same as the SWITCH function).
Unfortunately, this would require the report to rerun each time the user wanted to sort.
Kinda lame but it's the only way that I can think of to do it.
I am using Visual Studio 2012 for SSRS and my queries come from using Microsoft SQL Server 2012.
My question below pertains to SSRS and sorting.
In my Tablix, I currently have the Row Groups set up as Group -> Manager -> Owner -> Status Description and when it pulls the data from the data from the dataset, it pulls in fine. In the tablix, basically everything is a drilldown and each of the Row Groups (except Group) is hidden initially and can be displayed/toggled by the report item ahead of it. In the Status Description part, when it pulls in the records, it pulls them in as Active, Completed, In Process...which is fine because they are pulling in ABC Order.
But I want to show that specific column when it pulls in as Active, In Process, Completed...in the way that a specific file would go through the process. These are only 3 specific ways the data could pull it as, there are more, but these are the most common seen. How do I sort that individual column to get it in the way I mentioned above or a way that I can customize the sorting based on how I want it to be seen?
You can use expressions in the sort order to get the sorting exactly as you'd like.
What you can do is use the SWITCH statement to number your output in the order you want. For example I have 3 statuses: "Complete", "On Hold" and "Word at Risk". Normally they would either sort as Ascending or Descending... but if I enter this in the Sort Order Formula I can change that:
=SWITCH(
Fields!PRS_STATUS.Value = "Complete", 1,
Fields!PRS_STATUS.Value = "Word at Risk", 2 ,
Fields!PRS_STATUS.Value = "On Hold", 3)
And now it orders 1,2,3 aka Complete, Work at Risk, On Hold.
You can put this switch in a larger switch statement to have multiple sort orders depending on a criteria or parameter.
I want to know if anyone knows how to sort the values in a listbox in Qlikview, when one is forced to have an expression in the sort tab?
I had to use the same expression from the general tab in the sort tab
if(datakilde='Aarlig', Aktivitetsnavn)
Otherwise the listbox didn't show the associated values (from a selected value from another listbox) in the top of the listbox - which aren't very user friendly.
But as a consequence the sorting in alphabetic order is no longer works...
(And I had to have an expression in the general tab, becausecI only need a subset of the loaded data).
(I also tried with the option auto ascending in the state box under the sort tab).
See my sort tab below.
Kind Regards Maria
There are multiple solutions on this, but I think the correct one, would be to create a field in your datamodel, that contains just the values that need in the listbox.
Listboxes are not very good at filtering data. So take your if statement, and put it into the source table:
if(datakilde='Aarlig', Aktivitetsnavn) as Aktivitetsnavn_2
Then you don't have to struggle with filtering data in listboxes and your sorting will be correct.
i had similar problem while sorting a listbox with values filtered by an expression. I gave up on filtering in listbox and filtered in my load script. After that i was able to sort properly.
A solution for a similar situation I just had was the following:
I've loaded all Items that i needed sorted & filtered out in a separate table, for example:
zones:
LOAD * INLINE [
zone, **zone_order**
zone A, 1
zone D, 2
zone C, 3
zone B, 4
];
I've added my zone in the filter and in the Sort tab, i've chosen to sort by expression: zone_order, and that's it!
I want to sort an rdlc report by two or more columns.
This could happen if I have two names that are the same so then it should next be sorted by ID column.
When I navigate to textbox properties and click the interactive sort tab I can only select one column to sort by.
How to add more than one column?
EDIT: I just realised you can edit the matrix of the entire table to add multiple sort fields. I'm guessing you can also create a group and attach that to the column if needed.
I also did not find multiple columns fields for interactive sorting.
You can workaround this by specifying an expression where you concatenate columns values. Note that date field you have to format in a sort friendly way.
=Fields!MyString.Value & CDate(Fields!MyDate.Value).ToString("yyyyMMdd")
yes, you can add multiple sort fields in the tablix properties.
Aside from that, if you click on a row textbox, you can see the Interactive Sorting tab, where you can group and sort field values.
Hope this helps!
