Filtering results of an MDX query in a single row of a matrix based on externa(user/hard-coded)l parameter.
Hello, I am trying to build an SSRS report from an Analysis Services cube using SQL Server 2008 R2. The output of the report should be as follows( example) Items Sold 2004-05 2005-06 2006-07 2007-08 2008-09 2009-10 Item1 1,038 1,025 792 887 783 753 Item2 2,171 2,162 2,613 2,430 2,182 2,106 Item3 258 274 268 274 235 234 Item 4 423 401 491 396 451 479 Item 5 208 175 163 144 163 158 Total 4,098 4,037 4,327 4,131 3,814 3,730 Percentage of Item 4 sold compared to total 25% 25% 18% 21% 21% 20% I have built a cube which can show this information . Financial Year 2004-05 2005-06 2006-07 2007-08 2008-09 2009-10 Grand Total Items Percentage of Total Items Sold Percentage of Total Items Sold Percentage of Total Items Sold Percentage of Total Items Sold Percentage of Total Items Sold Percentage of Total Items Sold Percentage of Total Items Sold Item1 66.22% 18961 67.00% 19115 66.21% 18959 65.82% 19130 65.08% 18767 64.84% 18849 65.86% 113781 Item2 9.70% 2777 9.43% 2691 9.37% 2682 8.94% 2597 9.91% 2857 9.85% 2863 9.53% 16467 Item3 10.32% 2956 10.23% 2919 10.88% 3115 11.01% 3199 11.01% 3176 11.64% 3385 10.85% 18750 Item 4 4.35% 1245 4.16% 1186 3.20% 917 3.43% 998 3.10% 893 2.96% 860 3.53% 6099 Item 5 9.42% 2696 9.18% 2620 10.34% 2960 10.80% 3139 10.90% 3143 10.71% 3114 10.23% 17672 Grand Total 100.00% 28635 100.00% 28531 100.00% 28633 100.00% 29063 100.00% 28836 100.00% 29071 100.00% 172769 I created a Calculated Member function which can gets the % for all items as shown below. Case // Test to avoid division by zero. When IsEmpty ( [Measures].[Items Sold] ) Then Null Else ( [CubeName].[Items].currentmember, [Measures].[Items Sold] ) / ( // The Root function returns the (All) value for the target dimension. Root ( [CubeName].[Financial Year ] ), [Measures].[Items Sold] ) End ----- My question is how can I configure the last row of the matrix report-item so that I can allow the user to select the" Item" for which the percentages would be displayed? I know i can use a parameter to accept user input. However, I need to know how to get correct percentage value in the correct Financial Year column based on (say for e.g "Item 4" ) . I know that it is possible to filter the dataset assigned to the matrix but it is not possible to do that at row/column level. So is there any workaround using expressions or other technique? Thanks, Ashish Sathe

Hi Ashish, --My question is how can I configure the last row of the matrix report-item so that I can allow the user to select the" Item" for which the percentages would be displayed? I would suggest you try to use Subreport to calculate the specific Item percentage in specific month. Then, on the main report, in the matrix cell, insert a SUBREPORT control to link the percentage from the subreport newly created with Item and Month parameter mapping. thanks, Jerry
