I have a SQL server result set which I need to display using SSRS rdl.
The result set id like:
SpeakerId Product Topic
16 a A
16 a B
16 b C
16 a D
17 b B
17 c C
17 c E
18 a B
18 c A
19 c C
I need to display this information in different tabs in excel based on Products.
Each speaker will have a only one row and the topics will be displayed in different coulmns based on alphabetical order.
When I tried to implement this dynamic pages and columns in rdl, I am facing following issue:
I am getting blank columns for the topics, if the product and the speaker in that tab is not having the topic which other Product and speaker(in other tabs) have.
Please suggest any way to resolve this.
I tried to use Rank but the concept does not helps in this case as we have multiple pages in the excel.
Thank You.
In this sort of situation, you need to make sure that all required topics are returned for all speakers so that SSRS knows to display the topics.
One way of doing this is with a PIVOT query, something like:
select SpeakerId
, [A],[B],[C],[D],[E]
from ResultSet
pivot
(
max(Product)
for Topic in ([A],[B],[C],[D],[E])
) p
SQL Fiddle with demo.
You can see here that each speaker has a column for each Topic in the result.
This means that in the report, you can use a Table instead of a Matrix to display the data.
Unknown number of Topics?
You may still run into issues if you don't know the required Topics before writing the report query - in this case I would suggest making sure that you include an OUTER JOIN to the Topic table.
This depends on your data, obviously. But this is useful as it means that each Speaker will have a row for each Topic, which is what you require... Here you would use a Matrix to display results in the report.
Whatever approach you use, the goal is to get a DataSet to SSRS that includes every possible Speaker/Topic combination, even if the actual value for the Topic is NULL, so the report always displays the same Topic columns for each Speaker.

i am struggling to find a solution for following. It is hard to find a title for it by the way :)
I am making a tool where i want to track subscriptions to an event. For managing that I have a table with x (25+) number of positions to be filled.
This tool is in VB.net with an underlying MSSQL Database
That Position will be assigend with a 'userid' and some attributes as 'getradio1' , 'getsradio2' etc.
All of that is easy. So you will get something like this in the 'position' table.
Now it comes - and the questions is twofold : Can it be done and if yes how ?
Every UserID has a kind of priority ranking (in the UserID Database)
Now what i want to is to have the position filled in by order of that ranking . Lets assume that the ranking is as follows
UserID101 = Ranking 14
UserID103 = Ranking 5
UserID106 = Ranking 11
UserID102 = Ranking 39
UserID118 = Ranking 1
UserID114 = Ranking 6
Then i want the table updated so that the position is 'reassigned' according to rank as follows (also including the 'getradio' colums
Ideally would be that if a new PositionID was assigned it would automatically do the 'reordering'.
I tried to descridbe the problem as simple and complete as possible. But if you have more question donot hesitate.
Thanks already for your help
Previously we were fetching a number of countries from a table. Now the table changed to support multiple languages inside the text cell. The previous SQL statement was:
select b.text, a.iso_num, a.iso2, a.iso3, a.kfz, a.ind_member
from schema.zl_countrycode a, schema.zl_countrycode_lsd b
where a.ind_land = 1 and a.kfz is not NULL and dat_end = to_date('99991231','YYYYMMDD') and a.ZL_COUNTRYCODE_id = b.ZL_COUNTRYCODE_LSD_ID order by text
The list previously outputted each country in a row.
With the addition of the language selection, the list suddenly doubled in size - because it lists every county in two different languages.
This is how the table looks with the GUI
I'm trying to figure out, how to expend the statement to only select each "DE:" value in the text column. After having a quick indirect discussion with the developers, they provided me this XPATH statement:
Parentofparent/Parent/Valuestable[name="ZL_COUNTRYCODE"]/Valueclassification[name="TEXT"]/Value/ValueLng[lng="DE"]
I don't know the first thing about XPATH and no matter what I have tried so far, it failed.
Please help me out if you're knowledgeable in this field. It's probably an Oracle database, as I have experienced a plethora of Oracle error codes in the last few days.
I think this should do the trick:
SELECT b.TEXT
,a.iso_num
,a.iso2
,a.iso3
,a.kfz
,a.ind_member
,a.de
FROM SCHEMA.zl_countrycode a
JOIN SCHEMA.zl_countrycode_lsd b
ON a.ZL_COUNTRYCODE_id = b.ZL_COUNTRYCODE_LSD_ID AND b.spec_lng = 'DE'
WHERE a.ind_land = 1
AND a.kfz IS NOT NULL
AND dat_end = to_date('99991231', 'YYYYMMDD')
ORDER BY TEXT
I am looking for a way to search for a certain number of rows as a quality check. For example, we have tables that have a certain set of results that are needed.
Here is a quick table for an example:
ID: Name: Result: Reportable:
ONE A 10 X
TWO B 12 X
THREE C 1
FOUR D 18 X
FOUR(redo) D 11 X
So we are looking to double check results as there are people who accidentally report results multiple times (as in the case with ID FOUR). We have used having counts but we need the numbers to be specific and need a query to verify that number is satisfied.
In the table above we only want IDs ONE, TWO, and FOUR, however we have 4 results (one extra). Currently we have our check showing the count needed (ie 3) and the current result count (4) to show the mismatch but want a query to easily only show the result needed. We would need the redo result most of the time so we have set it so we take the latest date, but it doesn't help filter how many rows or results. I apologize if anything is confusing and I am not able to share the SQL query that we have currently. It's my first time posting so if I need to clarify anything please let me know as this seems to be very complicated. Thank you for your time.
EDIT: The details
We have one table (Table A) letting us know which results are reportable. The ones that are reportable go into another table (Table B). We have had issues in which people have made too many results reportable which overpopulates the Table B. Our old query had a count in Table B, but due to mistakes in people placing multiple reportables, samples which had many redos seem to be finished as they were all placed and met the count in Table B.
So now by using the Table A that helps tell us how many are Reportable, we want this to double check that the samples are indeed ready.
As I understand the question, you want ids that have multiple reportables. Assuming you really mean name, then:
select name
from t
where reportable = 'X'
group by name
having count(*) >= 2;
I'm running SQL queries in Orion Report Writer for Solarwinds Netflow Traffic Analyzer and am trying to add up data usage for specific conversations coming from the same general sources. In this case it is netflix. I've made some progress with my query.
SELECT TOP 10000 FlowCorrelation_Source_FlowCorrelation.FullHostname AS Full_Hostname_A,
SUM(NetflowConversationSummary.TotalBytes) AS SUM_of_Bytes_Transferred,
SUM(NetflowConversationSummary.TotalBytes) AS Total_Bytes
FROM
((NetflowConversationSummary LEFT OUTER JOIN FlowCorrelation FlowCorrelation_Source_FlowCorrelation ON (NetflowConversationSummary.SourceIPSort = FlowCorrelation_Source_FlowCorrelation.IPAddressSort)) LEFT OUTER JOIN FlowCorrelation FlowCorrelation_Dest_FlowCorrelation ON (NetflowConversationSummary.DestIPSort = FlowCorrelation_Dest_FlowCorrelation.IPAddressSort)) INNER JOIN Nodes ON (NetflowConversationSummary.NodeID = Nodes.NodeID)
WHERE
( DateTime BETWEEN 41539 AND 41570 )
AND
(
(FlowCorrelation_Source_FlowCorrelation.FullHostname LIKE 'ipv4_1.lagg0%')
)
GROUP BY FlowCorrelation_Source_FlowCorrelation.FullHostname, FlowCorrelation_Dest_FlowCorrelation.FullHostname, Nodes.Caption, Nodes.NodeID, FlowCorrelation_Source_FlowCorrelation.IPAddress
So I've got an output that filters everything but netflix sessions (Full_Hostname_A) and their total usage for each session (Sum_Of_Bytes_Transferred)
I want to add up Sum_Of_Bytes_Transferred to get a total usage for all netflix sessions
listed, which will output to Total_Bytes. I created the column Total_Bytes, but don't know how to output a total to it.
For some asked clarification, here is the output from the above query:
I want the Total_Bytes Column to be all added up into one number.
I have no familiarity with the reporting tool you are using.
From reading your post I'm thinking you want the the first 2 columns of data that you've got, plus at a later point in the report, a single figure being the sum of the total_bytes column you're already producing.
Your reporting tool probably has some means of totalling a column, but you may need to get the support people for the reporting tool to tell you how to do that.
Aside from this, if you can find a way of calling a separate query in a latter section of the report, or if you embed a new report inside your existing report, after the detail section, and use that to run a separate query then you should be able to get the data you want with this:
SELECT Sum(Total_Bytes) as [Total Total Bytes]
FROM ( yourExistingQuery ) x
yourExistingQuery means the query you've already got, in full (doesnt have to be put on one line), the paretheses are required, and so is the "x". (The latter provides a syntax-required name for the virtual table which your query defines).
Hope this helps.
I'm not quite sure on the best way to phrase this particular query, so I hope the title is adequate, however, I will attempt to describe what it is I need to be able to understand how to do. Just to clarify, this is for oracle sql.
We have a table called assessments. There are different kinds of assessments within this table, however, some assessments should follow others in a logical order and within set time frames. The problems come in when a client has multiple assessments of the same type, as we have to use a fairly inefficient array formula in excel to identify which 'full' assessment corresponds with the 'initial' assessment.
I have an earlier query that was resolved on this site (Returning relevant date from multiple tables including additional table info) which I believe includes a lot of the logic for what is required (particularly in identifying a corresponding event which has occurred within a specified timeframe). However, whilst that query pulls data from 3 seperate tables (assessments, events, responsiblities), I now need to create a query that generates a similar outcome but pulling from 1 main table and a 2nd table to return worker information. I thought the most logical way would be be to create a query that looks at the assessment table with one type of assessment, and then joins to the assessment table again (possibly a temporary table?) with assessment type that would follow the initial one.
For example:
Table 1 (Assessments):
Client ID Assessment Type Start End
P1 1 Initial 01/01/2012 05/01/2012
Table 2 (Assessments temp?):
Client ID Assessment Type Start End
P1 2 Full 12/01/2012
Table 3:
ID Worker Team
1 Bob Team1
2 Lyn Team2
Result:
Client ID Initial Start Initial End Initial Worker Full Start Full End
P1 1 01/01/2012 05/01/2012 Bob 12/01/2012
So table 1 and table 2 draw from the same table, except it's bringing back different assessments. Ideally, there'd be a check to make sure that the 'full' assessment started within X days of the end of the 'initial' assessment (similar to the 'likely' check in the previous query mentioned earlier). If this can be achieved, it's probably worth mentioning that I'd also be interested in expanding this to look at multiple assessment types, as roughly in the cycle a client could be expected to have between 4 or 5 different types of assessment. Any pointers would be appreciated, I've already had a great deal of help from this community which is very valuable.

You can access the same table multiple times in a given query in SQL, simply by using table aliases. So one way of doing this would be:
select i.client,
i.id initial_id,
i.start initial_start,
i.end initial_end,
w.worker initial_worker,
f.id full_id,
f.start full_start,
f.end full_end
from assessments i
join workers w on i.id = w.id
left join assessments f
on i.client = f.client and
f.assessment_type = 'Full' and
f.start between i.end and i.end + X
/* replace X with appropriate number of days */
where i.assessment_type = 'Initial'
Note: column names such as end (that are reserved words in Oracle SQL) should normally be double-quoted, but from the previous question it looks as though these are simplified versions of the actual column names.
From your post, I assume that you're using Oracle here (as I see "Oracle" in the question).
In terms of "temp" tables, Views come right to mind. An Oracle View can give you different looks of a table which is what it sounds like you're looking for with different kinds of assessments.
Don Burleson is a good source for anything Oracle related and he gives some tips on Oracle Views at http://www.dba-oracle.com/concepts/views.htm
