There is a field called "Total cost" for each Group(which is Dept in this case).I have summed up the individual values of this field "Total Cost" in the group footer for each group, which give me aggregate total cost of each group at the group footer .Now I want to summarize the report with just Dept name i.e group name and the aggregate total (sum of total cost field of that group) in the report.
Could anyone please furnish some sample code?
Thanks in advance.
I believe what you want is group summary in report footer i.e. you want to display all department names along with total cost for the department at the end of report - right? AFAIK, only way to achieve this would be to use a sub-report in the report footer.
You may use the same query/dataset for your sub-report, have same group(s) but no details section, only group summary fields and no page-breaks on groups. Alternate way is to use different query that would give the summarized output (i.e. grouping at database level).

I'm having trouble unmerging cells on the report.
3 Suppliers for the query
I have a SQL query that shows 3 instances of a supplier (left joined to contact) as shown below. However, when running the report for the query the 3 instance of the supplier is merged into one. This is not desirable in my case because when exporting the report to excel, I'd like to be able to sort columns based on other properties, however, this would not be possible due the the merging of the rows. How can I get results to show individually?
Cells are Merged on the report
Within the properties of each Row Group you can specify which columns to group on. You generally don't need a separate group for each field, but that's OK. In your last group, the one called "(Details)", if it is not grouped by anything, it will show one row per line of results from the query. So take a look at what it's grouped by. As long as the rows are in your dataset, the report will group or show them based on how you configure the grouping here. Grouping on nothing means it will show all rows.
Another tip is to align the end of your header textbox with the line of one of your columns. This will prevent it from creating an extra column in Excel for the "City" field.
Your report does not need all of those groupings - the SSRS grouping is not like SQL. You should only group when you want to aggregate data on that field. Normally you might have a company with its address in various fields in one group but you only need to group once on the Company Name or (preferably) ID - not on each field and not a separate group for each. You could then show details of various invoices in other columns that aren't grouped.
But since you want to display the company data on each row, you would not want ANY grouping on the company.
To fix your issues, remove all the groupings (but not the rows) and just leave the detail group (which doesn't have a Grouping).
You can check out MS Docs: Understanding Groups for a better explanation.
[in sale analysis on total two list product and product category there. same things I want to add in quotation pivot table how can I add?
That is not really possible, because the BI (Business Intelligence) reports (you called it "sale analysis" in your question) are actually transformed data with sales order LINES as base. And the pivot of sales order are based on sales order. You don't have product and product category information, because you have a one to many relation to order lines where this information is belonging to. It's only working the other way around (lines information -> order information).
So the solution is probably extending sale analysis (i think the model is sale.report) with every other thing you're missing there instead of changing the pivot of sales orders.
Friends,
I am puzzled by a "basic" PivotTable issue I am facing, trying to use data of 2 sheets into 1 PivotTable. *
Sheet 1: "Orders", containing order lines with foreign key "Article ID Nr"
Sheet 2: "Articles", containing article data with primary key "ID Nr"
Goal: Pivot listing ordered articles per customer, showing per article line:
the ordered qty
total value ("total net" field)
and the avaialble stock
This is the currently incorrect calculation:
and these are the settings:
I am able to pull in stock data from the "Articles" sheet; however, that data is NOT showing the correct stock for that article, but rather the sum of all article's stock, i.e. the total stock. Each article line should get the "Nr in Stock" listed.
I have tried this Pivot model in a test workbook/worksheet, with dummy data.
It DID work in that PivotTable. However, I cannot find the reason why it does not work properly in my main worksheet.
Structure of Sheet 1 - "Orders":
ID-Nr (of order) / Client ID-Nr / Client Company Name / Article ID Nr / Article Description / Qty / Total Net (i.e. $-value of order line)
Structure of Sheet 2 - "Articles":
ID-Nr (of article) / Description / Nr In Stock
Any help, suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Koen
Like the warning in the PivotTable Fields List says, you need to set up a relationship between your two tables.
Click that yellow warning, see if it rectifies the problem. Otherwise set one up manually using the Relationships icon from the PivotTable Tools tab.
I am Counting on Distinct ID's in a column - this is leading to the sum of the subtotals not equalling the grand total as follows:
What I want to do is rank the Payment Dates in cronological order and select ONLY the highest date to display. In the example above the Grand Total won't change, but the Townville row will not show a Distinct Student Count.
This is a very specific requirement and I'm assuming there's an easy way to do it in DAX - I've tried playing around with both RANKX and MAX but am no closer to solving this.
One last thing - the Rank must be contextual to the Time Filter selected by the user (so if they select 2015 it'd give the second record Rank 1 and the top record wouldn't show. If they select May 2015 it'd give the top record Rank 1 and the second record wouldn't show)
I think this is what you are looking for - I added a calculated column to the PowerPivot model that provides a rank based on the Last Payment Date and the Name of the Student. It will rank the earliest payment for any student as a 1.
The code for the column is as follows:
=RANKX(FILTER(Table1, [Student Name] = EARLIER([Student Name])), [Last Payment Date])
... assuming your table is named "Table1"!
The FILTER is the key that limits the ranking to dates belonging to students with that name only.
Update for Multiple tables
To set up relationships between the tables, go to the "Diagram View" of the model, available in the Home tab of the Power Pivot window.
You can drag fields from one table to the other to create relationships. This will only work if at least one of the fields is unique - it's a good idea to think of the model as a dimensional model, with a tables that acts like a fact and other tables around it that act like dimensions.
From the comment, I would try to get the Payments to act like the fact, and have it link to the Community and Student tables. in this case, you could then have the following code:
=RANKX(FILTER(Table1, Related('Students'[Student Name]) = EARLIER('Students'[Student Name])), [Last Payment Date])
This calculated column would be on your Payments Fact table, and it uses a lookup to a related field.
Note that in this specific case, it would be easier to just run the filter over your Student ID field that is used to lookup the Student name.
I am working on a PowerPivot report that has the following tables/relationships:
FactTable:
SponsorId
OfficeId
Type
Color
Quantity
DimSponsor:
SponsorId
SponsorName
ProjectName
DimOffice:
OfficeId
Region
Country
Manager
NumberEmployees
Relationships exist FactTable to each of the two dimension tables.
I wish to create a calculated measure that is the SUM(Quantity)/SUM(NumberEmployees) which represents the average number of items processed by number of employees.
I believe I am having the problem listed here at PowerPivotPro FAQ
When I create a pivot table that has an X-Axis of [Region] with [NumberEmployees] as the only value it always displays the sum of ALL [NumberEmployees] regardless of any slicer selection (in this case, I created a horizontal slicer of [SponsorName]).
I am new to DAX and have struggled to find a formula to meet my needs. Is there any solution to this problem?
I found working examples of what I needed to accomplish on Marc Russo's blob. It is a matter of creating a custom measure that filters the Office table by the already filtered rows of FactTable.
As some of the comments on the page mention, it isn't as easy as drag-n-drop but it works.
