QlikSense choosing amount of listed item

!https://i.imgur.com/tfr0N27.png "Qlik Layout"
So I have this screen and I would like to make it so the user can choose the amount of each selected item. I would also like for the KPI to show 0 if nothing is selected. Any ideas?
I'll try Measure like this:
IF(GetSelectedCount(ProductName)>0,SUM(ListPrice), 0)
The amount of item can be set using input boxes. Problem is input box is per variable so you would have to define input boxes for each product and then make long list... even for that you need input box extension from Qlik Branch. In Qlikview there is functionality to add inputSum function in table which could be perfect in your case but is not implemented in QLikSense. If it is really necessary you can create own extension in Qliksense with html table of all products and form which is updating variables.

Multiple records per row

My Details section currently looks like this:
How can I arrange it like this instead?
Go to your Section Expert and select Format with Multiple Columns. This will make the Layout tab appear.
From that tab, you can set the relevant width such that four records appear per row. (Depending on the dimensions of the page.)

Display Records Horizontally Instead of Vertical in Cells, SSRS

I'm trying to display multiple values for one drive by adding a column for each additional record assigned to a drive. For example, a drive ID is unique but can have multiple promotional incentives assigned to it.
For example, if we go to a university on 1/23/2015, that will a unique event or record in the DriveMaster table, but if we are giving away T-Shirts and Pizza, those two records will be assigned to the drive in the EquipmentDetail table.
In SSRS, I'm trying to create a sub-report that will display the promotional items on one line instead of adding additional lines for each promotional item. See screenshot below.
What I'd like to have happen is have the each drive only account for 1 row, and each promotional item listed in a new column to the right. See mockup in Excel.
Is there a way to handle this? I know there is in Crytal Reports, but I can't figure this out in SSRS. I've tried using a Matrix, but I can't see to get the columns to grow if there are multiple incentives.
I added a column group on the Description field, and it looks like that it is close, but that the grouping will create blank spaces (cells) in it.
Thanks,
You have to set a Column Group for your promotional item in your Matrix.
Hope that helps.
Edit:
It looks like there are some areas that contain no data (because of your groupings)
We can do something like the following:
In your query you can use the 'over'
Select DriveID, PromotionItem, ... ,
ROW_NUMBER() Over(Partition by Select DriveID, PromotionItem, ... Order by PromotionItem)
AS ColumnGroupNumber
Then in the Promotion Item group that you have change the field it groups on to the ColumnGroupNumber (or whatever you are going to call it). Just don't change the field in the detail row, or you will not see the details.
I have used this solution before. I found it here.

Record headers on side of report page for column-wise reports

I'm making a report with "horizontal" records, so that data in each record displays in a single column, and columns are repeated across the length of the page, so the data comes out like this:
The fields really need labels at the left side of the page, however I can't see how to make a "header" at the side of the page. The original report in Excel has something like this:
While I got the colum-wise records working fine, I'm puzzled as to how I can make the rightmost column into a label/header area. It will need to repeat on each page as well. I'm using the "format with multiple columns" feature in Section Expert. I see no such "column" feature for the header sections and if I just insert a text object into the Details column to the left of the data, I get that text copied over to each record like this:
How can I make these "side" headers along the left/right side of the page in Crystal?

How to display two grids with different data on the same form

I have a form with two grids. I have one table with rows where each row has a status of Yes or No. I'd like to display all the yes's in the top and the no's in the bottom grid.
A similar scenario would be if I wanted to show SalesTable header records. The top grid would be only those with a status of Delivered, and the bottom grid those with a status of Invoiced.
How can I accomplish this?
I've gotten close by adding another datasource of the same table type. I add a QueryBuildRange to filter the records but I get two issues:
When I click on a row in the top/bottom, it moves both row lines at the same time (the highlighting thing
It wants to show an equal number of top rows as bottom rows for some reason?? If I have 3 delivered sales orders, and 5 invoiced sales orders, it will show 3 in the top and 3 in the bottom.
Seams like the Grid-controls are being controlled by the same DataSource.
Check the properties of the Grid-control: make sure they are not set to the same DataSource!
Anyway, it would be helpful to know how the Form is structured and how the QueryBuildRange was added.
I created a very simple Form and it worked correctly:
added two Datasets with T-SalesTable each
added two Grid-controls to the Design (or to a TabPage, both worked)
adjusted the DataSource-property of each Grid to point to each DataSource
added fields (the AutoReport group) from the corresponding DataSource to each Grid
this one worked correctly (despite having the same contents. Then I
added a range in the init method of each of the Datasets
and it still worked.
