Creating a Matrix report using Report Wizard

In this section we will look into the steps for creation of the Matrix report which is basically use for generating pivot table style reports. The way of creating this type of report is very similar to that of a Tabular report which we have already explored with a subtle change. Henceforth instead of doing the similar steps that has been followed in Tabular report creation, we will see only from that point where basically we need to set the Matrix report type and will move ahead. We will start from the Select Report Type Screen. Please follow the steps provided in the Creating a basic Tabular SSRS Report section for setting up the previous steps.
Step 1:Let us choose Matrix as the report type and click on Next button.
