SSRS Recursive parent

Posted by Jeff Rix on May 8, 2012 under SSRS | Be the First to Comment

If you have a hierarchy in your Dataset and you would like the records to be displayed in the appropriate order you can handle this in SSIS by specifying a Recursive parent under the Advanced Group Properties for the Row Group.

My Data set has a process id and the process id it is dependent upon.

InScope function to determine the go to report action

In this report I only wanted to go to a report where the building was expanded to go to a grade.

The font color is determined by this statement.

=IIf(InScope(“GRADE_DESC2″),“BLUE”,“Black”)

The font effects are determined by this statement.

=IIf(InScope(“GRADE_DESC2″),“BLUE”,“Black”)

The action is “go to report”. Instead of specifying a report create an expression using the InScope function

Use Nothing as the false part of this if then statement.

=IIf(InScope(“GRADE_DESC2″),“RiseMarksMarkingPeriodGradeWeek”, NOTHING)
