Lesson 49: Sort the Results by using Parameters in SSRS

How to Sort the Results by using Parameters in SSRS


  • Firstly create a datasource, dataset and insert a table item into the report body and select the required fields.Next create a parameter and specify values of the parameter as the column names of the selected table. By doing this when a user select a value for the parameter the corresponding column name is selected.Also provide default value as one of the column name.  
  • Next create one more parameter which indicates the order by value.
  • Now select a column and go to the tablix properties and write the exp for sorting. Here once the user selects the values for parameter such as if he select ascending as value for second parameter we are deriving the first parameter value and assigning it to sort by and repeating the same as is.
  • When you preview the report the results are as below, you can select value for parameter which are then decoded to column and passed it as sort by value with corresponding sort by order column.

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.
