SSRS 100% Stacked Area Chart

This SSRS article shows how to create a normal and a 3D 100% Stacked Area Chart, format fonts and colors with an example. To demonstrate this example, right-click on the Datasets folder to create a new DataSet. Writing the below code inside the SSMS shows the data set that we use for this example.

The Sql query that we used in this SSRS example is:

SELECT Cat.[EnglishProductCategoryName] AS Category, Fact.[OrderDate],
SUM(Fact.TotalProductCost) AS ProductCost,
SUM(Fact.SalesAmount) AS Sales
FROM FactInternetSales AS Fact
INNER JOIN DimProduct AS Prod ON Fact.ProductKey = Prod.ProductKey
INNER JOIN DimProductSubcategory AS SubCat ON Prod.ProductSubcategoryKey = SubCat.ProductSubcategoryKey
INNER JOIN DimProductCategory AS Cat ON
SubCat.ProductCategoryKey = Cat.ProductCategoryKey
GROUP BY Cat.[EnglishProductCategoryName], Fact.[OrderDate]

Next, double-click the newly created DataSet and click the add calculated field option under the fields tab. Assign Month as the column name and click ƒx button to write the below expression that extracts the Month from the Order Date.
