Hi -
I'm very sorry if this has already been asked but I've looked through this and other forums and used search engines without finding anything addressing what I'm trying to do, although a couple came close. Also, I'm just really getting my feet wet into Crystal Reports coding, though I've gotten pretty well into a couple of books.
Here's basically what I'm trying to do:
My company tracks sales within an SQL database where they are assigned by what type of sales customer they are. These are things like "Standard Wholesale" "High Volume Wholesale" "Retail walk in" "Local Retail Delivery" "Out of state shipment" "Non Profit Sale" "Corporate" "Employee Discount" etc.
So we have a sales report that breaks down all the sales into these catagories.
The issue is that there are a real lot of catagories and we really would rather consolidate them in the report. We need all these different catagories because they have different prices and sales rules.
I'd like to get rid of "High volume wholesale" and just have "Wholesale" by making it put these two records into one, combining the totals. I'd also like to get rid of "employee discount" and just count those as retail. Also, I'd like to just count the "local delivery" as retail.
THe thing is that the reports are already written, as they came with the software we use (Counterpoint SQL) and I'd rather not have to completely re-write the reports to do this.
