Filtering through multiple dimesion Values - filter

I have a dropdown(Dimesions) and a stringEdit LookUp(dimensionValue) When I select a dimension suppose 'Branch' and a Value e.g. 'B001' I filter the result with the following query
queryRun.query().dataSourceTable(tablenum(LedgerTrans)).addange(fieldId2Ext(fieldNum(LedgerTrans, Dimensions), dimensions)).value(dimensionValue);
where dimensions is enumValue, in the above query the enumValue for branch is 3 and dimensionValue is a string EDT.
Now I want to filter with multiple dimensionValues e.g. 'B001, B002, B002' etc. What modifications do I have to make in the query? Kindly assist.

With this code you should be able to simply enter "B001, B002, B002" (without the quotes) in your Value StringEdit control.
By the way I would advise you to modify your code as follows so that same ranges wouldn't be added over and over again:
SysQuery::findOrCreateRange(queryRun.query().dataSourceTable(tablenum(LedgerTrans)), fieldId2Ext(fieldNum(LedgerTrans, Dimensions), dimensions)).value(dimensionValue);

How pull in fields value from created parameter

I created a parameter [GroupID] that is used to query several datasets in my SSRS report. It is using the field [GroupID] from my GroupList_Rolling12 dataset. An example of [GroupID] is 77610N. When 77610N is selected, all of my datasets are correctly 'filtering' for this [GroupID].
I now need to create a text box that returns the [GroupName] of [GroupID]. In other words, when 77610N is selected from my GroupID parameter, I want the [GroupName] that is associated with the selected GroupID parameter to display.
I'm still very new to SSRS and cannot figure this out. I tried creating the expression =First(Fields!GroupName.Value, "GroupList_Rolling12") but that did not work since it simply returns the first value from the query.
I also tried =First(Parameters!GroupID.Value(0)) but this also did not work
I also tried this expression =Lookup(Fields!GroupID.Value, Fields!GroupID.Value, Fields!GroupName.Value, "GroupList_Rolling12")
)
Can you please help?
You can reference the parameter label directly like this
=Parameters!GroupID.Label
There is no need to put the index on the end (=Parameters!GroupID.Label(0)) unless your parameter is multi-value, in which case it would select the first selected entry.

SSRS Report Parameters Interactive

I have a report that requires 3 parameters, all 3 has q query to pre populate them using a dataset for each, so the under their properties the available values is selected with the query. Default were also set to use the same query. This work fine.
My problem is when the user of the report wanted to enter the values themselves rather than going into the list populated by the query. Users know the value that they wanted to enter so it's faster for them to enter rather than select. SSRS report seems not to give you the ability to enter if you have set the available values and default values for some reason. Is their a way to go around this please?
Many thanks.
There is one straight forward way to use comma separated multi value parameter rather than list where user enters input.
Below link explains in detail, but I am quite sure you do not want to stick to below solution.
https://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/3479/how-to-use-a-multi-valued-comma-delimited-input-parameter-for-an-ssrs-report/
Another thing you could do is keep your multi value parameter as list as it is and create a text input parameter.
Now if user want to simply choose from list fair enough you will have to handle second parameter as null because user chose from list.
Then on your dataset check and apply filter as 2nd parameter value as not null.
Same goes if user does text input then multi value parameter as not null.

How to filter entries that are not duplicates of entries from others columns in Google Sheets?

I have a column called "Masterlist" which contains values from Lists 1, 2 and 3. It also contains values which are present only in Masterlist.
How can I filter them, like shown at the attached image in Google Sheets?
EDIT: The lists will have more than one entries.
Solution 1
In E2, type in
=filter(A2:A,arrayformula(iserror(match(A2:A,B2:D2,0))))
Check the documentation of filter or match for how to use them. With match, be sure to include the third argument. That is an easy one to forget. arrayformula iterates a formula over a range. The output can be a range, in which case it will print over any un-written cells. When arrayformula interacts with match, it only iterates over the first argument, which is why this solution works.
EDIT: If you have a two-dimensional range to match to, you need to collapse them into a one-dimensional range using the concatenation operators such as
=filter(A2:A,arrayformula(iserror(match(A2:A,{B2:B4;C2:C4;D2:C4},0))))
You can experiment with endings without row indices and let Google Sheets select an ending index for you.
Solution 2
Use the native Filter View feature. Good for the scenarios where you don't need to separately print a list of the unique values in "masterlist".
Go to Data -> Create Filter View
Use the relevant help pages to navigate yourself. I can see a few ways to implement what you desire, including
filter by value on the same column (selecting the actual values manually);
filter by value on a "helper column" where you include a formula in the cells to check whether the content in "masterlist" belongs to the list you want to check against. You can use the match and iserror combo here;
custom formula using a similar formula as above.
If your column A, ie. the "masterlist", is something a user would add to, then Data Validation can be used to good effect in conjunction with Filter View.

Distinct count a field that has been sorted by territory from another source

I am trying to find a way to get a distinct count on a field that is being filtered by a territory without using grouping because of the fact that I need to then pass this value over to another report. The easiest way would be something like this:
distinctcount({Comm_Link.CmLi_Comm_CompanyId}) if {Company.Comp_Territory}='Atlanta'
But for obvious reasons that won't work. Any thoughts?
what you have to do is a running total. Right click on {Comm_Link.CmLi_Comm_CompanyId} insert running total, type of summary will be distinct count and on evaluate where says Use a formula type your condition {Company.Comp_Territory}="Atlanta"
your formula and approach is wrong.. I doubt whether your formula compiled with out any errors...
first create the value and then find the distinct count
if {Company.Comp_Territory}='Atlanta'
Then {Comm_Link.CmLi_Comm_CompanyId}
Now in footer write or you can get it by right click on the filed.
distinctcount({Comm_Link.CmLi_Comm_CompanyId})

How do I specify columns to include in a matrix

I have a matrix that has a group filtered at the matrix level. I can't filter the SQL because it is very large and is used all over my report.
I need to be able to specify the columns to display after the filter is applied.
The end filter would look something like this
if ColumnA[value] IN Test1,Test2,Test3 OR ColumnB[name]
As you can see I want a value string filter and make sure ColumnB get displayed at all times.
Or being able to specify the columns to show in the matrix would work also.
You can filter at the dataset level: see here for more detail.
To filter a tablix, go into Tablix Properties and open up the Filters tab. You can write a Boolean expression (must evaluate to TRUE for the record to come into the Tablix) to do the filtering there.
I ended up using a tablix and creating columns for each column I wanted to display and rows for each row item. I then used a Count(IIF()) statement to match the specific item I needed to calculate for that cell. I wanted to use the matrix so it would not be so long winded but in the end I got the job done. I have since used this method on many occasions.
