I'm building myt very first SSRS report. I've read the other posts and it seems this should be very simple, but there is something I must be totally missing. It is a matrix report with two levels of row groupings, by business unit and by order status, returning a count of orders with columns for each region. I would like the entire row for certain statuses to be a different color.
First, I'm not sure where to put the code to have it affect the entire row. I've been trying to format just the field that contains the order status. I select the cell, F4, and in Background Color type =IIF(Fields!OrderStatus.Value = "PP LATE", "RED","BLUE") Everything comes back Blue. I've also tried trimming the field and I've tried just checking Left(Fields!OrderStatus.Value,2) = "PP". Same Result.
What am I missing?
