Lesson 19: Multi value parameter which Allows null values in SSRS.

How to use Null value in the Multi value parameter in SSRS.

SSRS doesn't allow null values to enter through the dataset or pass through a parameter.So we can use alternate process to achieve the above condition.

Firstly we need to create a dataset converting the input NULL to string(it can be any string) for assigning it to the parameter values. PFB snip

Next create a dataset with a multi value parameter, it has to have the condition where the null value present in the database is converted to string and compared with parameter values, PFB snip.

Now when you preview the results we can send the null value(which can be any user defined string) to the query and can see the results.

Conditional statement in SSIS: same as ternary operator in C ** <condition>? <true>:<false> Eg: Gender=="M" ? "Male": "Female" Multicast Transformation : This t/r creates multiple copies of i/p data. it is useful because every time we need not to go to source. ** This will improve task performance. Aggregate Transformation : It is used to convert the detailed values into aggregated data by using Aggregate functions like sum,avg,max,min,count etc. ** It is Asynchronous transformation. Example: to the i/p data from source group by deptno and perform aggregate funcs. Conversion in SSIS ; * Conversion is very important because data from flat file, excel comes to transformations in the form of string(varchar) , so we cannot perform required operations so it require to convert data. 1) Directly at source level : ** Select flat file source, right click--> show advanced editor. ** Select i/p & o/p properties tab, ...

Lesson 67: Join two datasets in SSRS by using Lookup function

How to join two datasets in SSRS by using Lookup function First create two datasets each one with a different datasource. Next insert a table in the report body and insert the required columns from the dataset1. Next in order to insert the columns from 2nd dataset, you need to write a look up function where you need to give the matching columns from both the datasets and the required column from dataset and scope as 2 datset Here since we are inserting the columns of dataset1 first, we are writing exp with scope as dataset 2.
