SSRS 3-D Clustered Horizontal Cylinder Chart

This SSRS article shows how to create a 3-D Clustered Horizontal Cylinder chart, show data labels, and 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 Management studio shows the data set that we use for this example.

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

SELECT Geo.[EnglishCountryRegionName] AS [Country]
	,Cust.EnglishEducation AS Education
	,SUM(Fact.SalesAmount) AS Sales
FROM  DimCustomer AS Cust
INNER JOIN FactInternetSales AS Fact ON Cust.CustomerKey = Fact.CustomerKey
INNER JOIN [DimGeography] AS Geo ON Cust.GeographyKey = Geo.GeographyKey
GROUP BY Geo.[EnglishCountryRegionName],Cust.EnglishEducation
