I think this falls under 'horizontal tables', but not sure

How can I do this in 2008 i.e. get it to 'wrap' the data to the next 'row' of the report when it has written out 4 cities worth of data? Query is MDX based

The data is currently ranked within a city, so I'm using a rank 'greater than' x to split the data into 2

Was it helpful?

Solution

First you need to make sure that the cities have a ranking next to them

Then create N tablixes inside one parent/container (N = number of columns you want)

Then you filter the child tablix based on 'Mod N'
