Hi there~
 
Im facing a problem on displaying my reports data accurately due to the duplication of data. Im creating a report whereby I need to compare Purchase Requisition data and also Purchase Orde Data. Below are my report output and also what I wish to get.
 
My current report output:
 
Req. No.     Desc.        Qty Req.      Po No.       Qty PO
001            Eraser          10              PO-01          12
001            Eraser          10              PO-01           20
001            Paper           30              PO-01           12
001            Paper           30              PO-01           20
002            Pencil           40              PO-02           40
002            Pencil           40              PO-02           20
002            Pen              20              PO-02           40
002            Pen              20              PO-02           20
 
 
Desired Output:
 
Req. No.     Desc.        Qty Req.      Po No.       Qty PO
001            Eraser          10              PO-01          12
001            Paper           30              PO-01          20
002            Pencil           40              PO-02           40
002            Pen              20              PO-02           20
 
 
So can anyone guide me on how or what I should do in order to get the desire output?
 
 
Thanks in advance~ Smile

your records duplicate bcoz of different value in qty po.

i think changing your query would be great. if you plan in getting 1 entry only disregarding what their qty po.

try this
select tbl1.reqno,(select top 1 qtypo from tblname where reqno=tbl1.reqno)
from tblname tbl1
group by reqno HAVING COUNT(*) > 1

Hi,

Introduce a group on the report for Description and place all teh fields in the Group Footer. Also remember to sort the desierd field (EG: Q PO) in the desiered order.

Thanks and regards

Are you using more than one table, if so it could be the linking of the tables that's causing it

It looks like this is a table linking problem.  You're getting quantities for all PO numbers under each PO number.
 
What is your table structure and how are you currently linking them?  Also, as a general rule of thumb - SmartLinking isn't smart.  It causes problems because it links based on matching field names.  I always turn it off and do my own linking.

I have a similar problem

The basic problem is we generate reports from SAP over 6 month time periods. In this period people may have left and been reappointed and therefore come up twice in the output list with different figures for each time spent employed.

Was just wondering if there is a way in Crystal to only produce one line for these people with combined figures.

Therefore instead of

Pers #      Name    Abs  Spells   Days

10001013 Stewart 1     2          3
10001013 Stewart 2     3          1

It reads

Pers #      Name    Abs  Spells   Days

10001013 Stewart 3       5        4

This is currently been taking into Crystal via Excel and only using one table to do so.

You could sort the by the Pers # first and group by Pers #, inserting a sum in that group to get the total

If I sort by Pers# then group by Pers# and sum the Pers# it will just count the amount of personnel numbers.

Will I have to make the fields I want to total into groups and therefore change the template to display only totals?

Insert a summary against the Abs etc showing the sum in the group section. Right Click on the fields you want the summary for and insert in the group line
