SSRS report totals

Question

I have an SSRS report which contains various currency entries in the form of €3340.89 stored as a string in the DB.

How can I add a line at the end of the report with the sum totals of that column?

Answer 1

In order to sum them you will need to either:

• Cast them as Decimal/Money in the SQL statement.

  select CAST(REPLACE('€3340.89', '€','') as DECIMAL(10,4))

• Use expressions to convert them in the report, then sum the expressions.

My preference would be the former as it's easier to maintain.
