I have a formula field in a group footer that gets some of its information from another summary field in the same group footer. Report works great, just can't figure if I can get a grand total of the individual footer totals.... I can't use any of the Detail line fields because they need to be subtotaled first (in the group footer) so that the formula field can do its job. Is this an un-solvable circular problem? I could dump the results into excel if needbe.
thanks for any advice

Take 2 running total variable, put into the group footer or appropriate section (preferable on any footer- report footer will display total percentage, not group wise) and give condition as you want or check below links.

I need to design a crystal report that matches a invoice template. Which means that the page will contain the layout & the crystal report will printout the values in the gives spaces. What is the easiest way to align the labels so that they will print out at the right location on my bill.
For example, If I were to get my printout on the invoice sample shown in the below image, how can I align the today's date label right in front of the date field.
I will try to help to the extent I can:
Logo, Address and date are printed once then those should be in report header so that it will be printed once...
To allign date filed just place the date to the right of the design of the report header.
2.if Bill Number and other items are needed only once then place those in report header.. If place is not sufficient then increase the size of the header of insert a section below.
3.Now group the report with the item and place the Description etc items in group header.
4.Place the values in Detail so that those will repeat for the items if there are more values for each item.
5.For sub total, PST, GST take in group footer. If one is not sufficient then insert a section below for each group footer.
6.For Notes, Total, Paid, Total Due use report footer as these need to be printed only once.
7.Take one more report footer section and write Thanks for your business.
Hope I explained what is needed.
I created a report in Crystal Report. It has two subreports.
GROUP Customer
GROUP FAMILY
DETAIL ITEM
The detail is for Items. This detail is inside a group. It has totals.
FOOTER A GROUP FAMILY
totals Item detail
FOOTER B GROUP FAMILY
Subreport 1 Totals by adj (it display the detail of a third table and the totals)
FOOTER Customer
Subreport 2.
Totals by item. (it display the details and the totals)
The report is 48298 records.
The tables have indexes.
Why it takes 30 minutes to run the report? Is this time "normal"?
How can I display in a footer the detail of other table?.
Can I set a field in the footer that calls a Store Procedure and returns all values like a detail?
Each of the subreports will be executed for each customer. I am surprised that you are not running out of memory. My guess is that the number of customers / families is relative small (less than 300). The report is slow because it queries the database twice for each customer. Try to prepare the data inside the main report.
I have a master-detail tables, I need to sum a value in master table only but the sum appear duplicated by the numbers of rows in the detail table !!!
It looks like you placed the summary/formula field within the Details section.
If the summary field is a group summary, move it to either the Group Header or Group Footer sections. If the summary field is a report summary, move it to either the Report Header or Report Footer sections.
