How to enable Add Total option in Tablix - asp.net

I had a problem of couting sum of grouped rows in a tablix. I posted it on stackoverflow. There I found the detailed answer by a user. But the problem is now, he is asking me to add "Add Total" in one cell of my tablix. Whereas I find no option of adding Add Total on every cell. In fact it is disabled on each cell except the cell that is coming under a group.
The person is using Italian IDE (Visual Studio) whereas my IDE is in english. Is there any difference between these two?
Please see the detailed post and reply if there is any solution.
I'll be thankful.
SSRS Sum in table group

I had the same problem. I think the problem is if the field is not recognised as a numeric, then 'Add Total' field will be disabled. So to overcome this problem, first I inserted a row at the bottom of the table and then I converted the field into double in the expression as follows
=SUM(cdbl(Fields!GROSS_MARGIN.Value))
After running the report, I was able to see expected total.

I found the answer

This is an alternate solution to my problem.

Make column properties for which u want totals as double or decimal in dataset.
Refresh report data in report designer. U will be able to see add total as enabled. Right click on column for which u want to add total and select Add Total.

no there is no differnce between it

How to reset line counter in per GroupHeaderBand Stimulsoft report?

I'm working on a report that I need to put row number in records but it must be reset on each GroupHeaderBand.
I've checked Demo designer, but in those report has been used nested Business Objects. I should say I have just one Business Object which has been grouped by one column.
I put {Line Through} but it doesnt reset per GroupHeaderBand.
Is there anyone who wants help me??
You should use the {Line} system variable. It will reset the numbering for each group.

Filtering data and Display Heading based on filters

being a newbie to SSRS, I am trying to figure out the following:
say for instance I have a dataset which does a :
SELECT [cols...] from [some view]
I want to be able to further filter this based on parameters given from an ASP.NET site (I am using the AJAX control toolkit for the report viewer). There could be x amount of parameters and potentially can be filtered on 1 or more columns.
First question is, how would I filter the dataset and pass along the parameters along with which field the filter should apply to? I may have [col1] and I want to filter it with x values.
Second question Is, I want to be able to group the results per page based upon a column. So for each grouped result set, I want them to be displayed per page (per group per page).
Then on the headers of the page, I want it to display what the page grouping is. How would I do this?
In terms of what have I tried - nothing as I DO NOT KNOW HOW, it is why I am asking the question here to see what the experts (you) can suggest and guide me.
thank you!
To do this you can create Parameters in SSRS, they do not need to be in your query or anything. Then, go to your tablix and click either ROW or column depending on the filter type and set it show/hide visibility. For example I have a report that has personal information, so i have true/false parameter that hides/shows those columns, similar I have one that hides/shows any row with a -1 for the total paid.

Cognos 10 Group Subtotal not showing

I have a list that shows columns from a query that is the result of a join (EmpJobs).
The list is grouped by Division and Department columns. When I highlight the Emp ID column and click Data -> Summarize -> Count in the toolbar, summary rows show up for Division and Overall, but I'm not getting a subtotal row for Department:
However, when I have a list that shows columns from a query that is NOT the result of a join (the Employees Query above), I get the subtotal rows on Department like I expect:
Our system was recently switched from Cognos 8 to Cognos 10. I didn't run into this issue in version 8, so did something change in version 10? Conceptually? A new setting somewhere?
Note: Not sure if this applies, but I found this post, which describes a different issue, but he says that his problem happens to the result of a join, which is the case in my problem. I played with the "Auto Group and Summarize" settings as he did, but without success.
Note 2: I think my question is the same as (Cognos report studio group for subtotals), but I don't think there was enough detail in the question to get the answer that the poster was looking for (no responses are marked as the answer). I follow the steps given in the one response, and I am still missing my subtotal.
I've seen this happen before in Cognos 10. I believe it's a bug. However, I don't know if it's 10 specific as it's been years since I've worked with 8. There is a workaround available.
Access the 'List Headers & Footers' dialog box. This can be done in two ways:
Click on the 'Headers & Footers' button in the toolbar and select 'List Headers & Footers'
Select Headers & Footers>List Headers & Footers... from the Structure menu
This will bring up the following dialog box:
Tick the box next to 'Department (footer)' highlighted above and click OK.
You should now have a Department summary row with empty cells underneath your columns.
Unlock the report and drag over your summary item from your query, Count(Emp ID), and put it in the empty cell at the intersection of the new Department footer and the Employee ID column.

VB.net 2010 RDLC dynamic tablix inside list

I have a table(tablix) inside a list in my report, I want to group and list detail items in the tablix, but its not working. When I try to create the grouping in the tablix it says that it needs to have static members. How do I get around that?
Here is a picture to clarify a bit...
Once I row group the list(red), I get the correct information on all the fields aside from the tablix(blue). In the tablix(blue) I get the aggregates(orange) correct, ot_plt count shows 3 the other sums show the summed total correctly, however; the details(pink) only shows the 1st item and doesn't list all 3 items.
So my question is, what do I have to do to make all detailed items show up on the (pink).
I tried to add another group on the tablix(blue) however, that throws the static member error, i mentioned in the beginning; any help with this would be appreciated.
Thanx....
I forgot about this question...
But good news is I found the answer and since there were 53 views in this question. I will post the answer.
I created a sub-report inside of the (red) list and placed the (blue)tablix in the subreport. I then grouped the row as I did with (pink) and added 2 parameters to the subreport, passing values(criteria) to it from the main report.
That allowed me to show detail on (blue)tablix.
Hope this helps anyone who is having this issue...

SSRS Tablix not returning full resultset

I have a tablix that is only returning the first row from a created dataset. I verified my stored procedure and dataset in asp and it's returning the expected results. Also I read somewhere to check the count of rows using a textbox and the CountRows() function and it indeed shows the expected count. Is there any special setting in the tablix or somewhere that I'm missing? Also if I add grouping, it would return the first row from each group which are several rows apart. This is really frustrating. Thanks in advance
If you deleted the row group it will do that. Or, if your row group is based on a single row value, that would be another reason. I had a limited result set coming back, and realized I was not grouping according to how I intended the report to behave and display.
Check to see if there is a filter on the Tablix, or perhaps you are grouping such that it only produced a single row? Please provide more information.
One of the reason I found for this issue is when a Matrix type of report (RDL) is converted to Tabular type of report by removing all grouped columns. To a developer it seems fine, but some where there is catch which does not convert a Matrix type report to Tabular and hence the grouping still continues and report never shows all the rows as expected. Only solution I found for this issue is creating a new RDL file of Tabular type and it all works fine.
