Topic: Group Running Totals Posted: 25 Jul 2012 at 4:31am
Hi All -
I'm new here and have learned so much by searching the forums! I can't find the exact answer to a question and hope you can help...
I have a report that summarizes sales by salesman (each salesman being a group). The top level is a list of customers by salesman with running totals for each customer. You can drill down on each customer and see actual invoice details. There are some duplicated invoice lines that are hidden and not included in the running totals.
I would like to put a summary field on the top level that gives the salesman a grand total for all of their customers. It seems really simple, but I don't know what I'm missing here. I can do an actual summary line of the field OEP70.LVAL70 and place it on the top level, but that adds in the duplicated invoices which I'm trying to avoid.

I would respectively disagree with Dell only in that I think you would have to use a previous() or next() function in the if-then formula due to your suppressed duplicate rows. This would would prevent the formula from being able to be summed and then used in a header. If you can avoid using the previous/next options and get your values as need in an if-then statement then Dell's solution would be optimal.
