I have a drop down box that is a multiparameter.

Basically the code I have is this

= IIF(Parameters!FunctionalArea.Label ="ISD",
Sum(Fields!WeekendHolidayHours.Value, "DataSet1") - Sum(Fields!WeekendHolidayHours.Value, "ISD") ,
Sum(Fields!WeekendHolidayHours.Value, "DataSet1"))

I also tried to join the parameter to find the value.

So basically if the value "ISD" is chosen then I want to subtract 2 sums. If it's not I only need 1 sum.

Well this isn't exactly what I was looking for but this does the job for now

= IIF(Sum(Fields!WeekendHolidayHours.Value, "ISD") >0,
Sum(Fields!WeekendHolidayHours.Value, "DataSet1") - Sum(Fields!WeekendHolidayHours.Value, "ISD") ,
Sum(Fields!WeekendHolidayHours.Value, "DataSet1"))

However is anyone knows the answer to my original problem I'd still like to add that to my tips for future reference

you can use like this

IIF(Sum(IIF(Fields!WeekendHolidayHours.Value="ISD",1,0)) >0,...

visakh16,

I had issues making that work. Although this question is along the same lines.

I have a report that's broken out like this

Group by Year
Group by Month
Department and Data

Under each Month I have a total which is working just fine.

However they want to totals.
The full total (Which I have) and then the Total Minus a department (or more)

If I do
=iif(Fields!FunctionalArea.Value="ISD", Fields!TTLHours.Value,0)

It always returns 0 Since the report doesnt really have a group by on the department. Is there a way to look up the data for the specific deparment and then subtract it for the total ?

If I make a seperate dataset I could subtract the departments but since I cant group by the different datasets on the same tablix (that I can find) that really work work since it pulls in the entire total (all Months instead of grouping by month.)

you can do like

=SUM(Fields!TTLHours.value,"your month group name") - Fields!TTLHours.value

in textbox at department level to get total - depthour value
