I am working on a Purchase Order report. now there is a requirement that totals and department name, manager signature etc should come at the bottom of the page. In SSRS it seems to be impossible to attain such a design. Things i have tried
Put empty rows in dataset but some items have name that comes in two
or three lines so addition of empty lines is disturbed and total is
coming on undesired place.
Manipulated borders and put lines but they
don't appear on the second.
Put totals and signature etc in footer
and show footer only on last page, but pages before the last page
have that unwanted empty space.
Tried to set the height of the footer dynamically to set the height to 0 on pages other then the last page but couldn't find anything related.
Please anything i missed or any suggestion to solve the problem would be deeply appreciated. Thanks
The easiest would would be what Abdul suggested, I'd have thought. Add a page break after your table, then on the last (blank) page position the text boxes exactly where you want them to go, with formulae summing the required fields over the dataset on which the table is based. The only drawback of this approach is the end of the table and the totals and footer textboxes will be on different pages.
If this really isn't acceptable (and it's by far the easiest option), then you need to include your totals in the report footer, and set a property for this to have a page break immediately before it. Not certain if this is possible (and SSRS isn't running on my machine at the moment, so I can't test this).

I need to view data with expanded sub-data in a continuous view. I have a query with subdatasheets that does the job, except it keeps asking to save changes to layout.
My query is not in a form. I'm just opening and closing the query, without making any changes. But if the "Subdatasheet Expanded" property is set to Yes it always asks if I want to save changes to the layout. If I change the property to NO, it doesn't ask.
Is there any way I can get the query to expand all subdatasheets without asking to save changes to layout?
I would prefer to place the query in a form, but I can't find a way to get expanded subdatasheets that works with continuous forms layout.
I know I could use a subform showing the subdatasheet, but then I can't get continuous forms, and that is an essential requirement.
Any help/advice appreciated.
I am fairly new to Wordpress. I am writing a real estate site, and I want to have a Service Area page that displays the Counties that we serve in various states. So what I want to happen is to have a dropdown list where a user can select a state, and based on the state that they select, a text area will display that counties that we service in that state.
So basically, I want to store text content in the form of counties that will be displayed based on the conditions of a dropdown list.
I have no idea where to start. Is there a plugin that works for this kind of situation such as a form plugin that can store content, or am I going to have to write custom PHP/Javascript to make something like this happen. I am asking because this seems like a common scenario on websites, I just don't know where to look.
Thanks for any suggestions that you may have!!
So what I ended up doing was creating a select box in html that when a change happened on the list, a javascript function was called that changed the visibility of a text area and also set the value of its content to display all the counties that I needed. Ended up being much more simple than I expected. No PHP functions and short code necessary.
I'm working on a survey in Qualtrics, and am needing to make certain fields readonly (I'm currently doing this via $j("#QR\\~QID186\\#1\\~14\\~1\\~TEXT").attr("readonly", true); for any IDs I know).
I'm currently getting certain IDs by previewing the survey in my browser and inspecting the element - no problem (as pointed out in their documentation). This is working for most fields, except ones with a lot of display logic on them. The display logic is taking into account previous answers and doing calculations on them - it's a little obfuscated as I don't know the content of the survey that well. So for these fields, it's incredibly tedious just to get the field to display in the first place by manipulating my input data.
It doesn't explain if it's even possible in their documentation, so it may be a long shot, but is there actually a way for me to get the ID of an element if I'm only in the "Edit Survey" section of Qualtrics, without having to preview it?
In the top right corner of the Qualtrics screen where you have your name, the drop down from that allows you to look at account settings. Once in this menu, you can select "Qualtrics IDs" in the Grey Ribbon. From there select the survey you want to examine and a separate window will pop up with all the Question IDs associated with that survey.
I am using ReportViewer in VS 2010 to port certain legacy MS Access reports to a C# application. I need to create a report header that is shown at the very top of the first page above the page header much in the same way that it's done in Access, but I'm not having any luck.
Surely there's a way to do this?
Edit Here's my progress so far.
Attempt #1: Put the report header elements in the page header and have them turn hidden for every page other than the first one. Unfortunately this leaves a big empty space in subsequent pages because the page header height cannot be adjusted on a per-page basis based on the content.
Attempt #2: Put the report header elements in the report body. This can work if the page header only contains the column headers for a table. You can set the column header row to appear for every page. However you cannot have other things like the page number appear since it cannot be displayed in the report body.
Attempt #3: Use a master report to display the report header and a subreport to display everything else. This fails miserably since you can't use the page header or footer of a subreport.
At this point I'm out of options. Is there something I haven't tried or do I need to switch to another reporting platform?
In the end I had to get creative. I placed my report header data on the report body. Underneath that I put the items that should be on the page header. I also copied those on the actual page header but set the header so it wouldn't show up on the first page. This works well for simple static text although it'd need more work if the page header contained any short of aggregate data.
It's a horrible hack, but it gets the job done until I can move to a better reporting platform.
I have been asked to modify the Customer account statement (custAccountStatementExt) report in Dynamics AX 2009. I need to add a page footer to each statement showing an overdue balance at different time intervals (ie 30, 60, 90 etc days overdue).
I have written display methods to calculate these values and I have added a reportFooter section to the report but it does not show.
If I add the code to a report Epilogue it works fine so I am reasonably confident that the code is correct.
It seems as if the page footers are turned on and off as required for displaying of the giro sections. I have tried commenting out all the disable page footer code but my footer still will not show.
Is there a way to get this footer to display on every page regardless of the giro printing?
You would need to override the method "executeSection()" in that section (pageFooter). Within that method, you would need to figure out whether or not you want to show it or not, and if you want to show it, you'll call "super()". Otherwise you won't.
Take a look at the report "SalesInvoice" and the PageFooter named "PrepaidTotalsEuro". Look at the "executeSection()"-method. Don't get confused by the boolean variable, it is there to make sure the footer is only printed on the first page.
