I'm using Crystal Report 11.5.12.1838.
I wanted to add more column 'Total" for each month to the chart the blow:
Chart1
I've tried both Running Total field and the Cross-tab. but it's lead me to nowhere as it's not my expectation.
As Running total field, it's increase the quality by the time, not separate for each month.
As the Cross-tab, it's generated another chart, instead of adding to the existed one.
I'm completely new with this so there may have some trick that i haven't know.
Please help me on this.
High appreciate if any input.
Edit.....................................................................
Please take a look on the Running total of mine: Running Total Configuration I added the summary to the footer before. You can see it in the brown highlighted: Expected chart
As i wanted to add this total column to the chart, but when using Running Total time, it's increase continuously. And the matter is i didn't know how to add more column to the existed chart.
Thanks for your time,
Running total should work but if you are unable to use the running total... Post what have you took in Evaluate and Reset so that we can see if anythig wrong you have done.
You can follow one more appraoch which is very simple and gives you sum.
Group the report with month
Place the remaining data in details
Now take the summary in group footer by Right Click field --> insert summary --> take sum to group footer
Let me know if you face any issue

Truth be told I'm not entirely sure what it is I'm trying to do here, well, that is I know what I want to achieve, but not how to go about it... so here's hoping you can help point me in the right direction!
I need to create a Crosstab report which has customers down the side, dates for columns, sales for figures. Simple enough.
Where it gets tricky is that they then want another row beneath the customers which singles out two customers, and their sales for one particular product.
They then want another row which will remove that figure from the total of the overall sales total for the first section (see example image).
I'm not really sure where to even start with this. I think I may need to use a query union, but every time I start I get kinda stuck... help!
That's not a crosstab. The summary calculations don't work. It's probably going to end up being three crosstabs formatted to look like a single crosstab. The first crosstab is everything down to the Total line. The last two lines are each crosstabs. Set the Size & Overflow, Padding, Margin, and other formatting properties so everything is layed out, bolded, and shaded the way you want.
You can create this as a crosstab
If you are okay with setting each customer as a fact
You can add them to a crosstab in any order you want
Then you can create a new data item and use a conditional statement that sets the metric to be the specific customers the consumer wants
For example,
IF([Customer] IN(?PrmCust) Then([Sales])Else(0)
For the revised total, unlock the report and replace them with layout calculations that take the total and reduce it by the amount of the selected customers
I have a data set which has incidents resolved w.r.t date. I would like to look at the trends of number of incidents resolved over the past 45 days only on a Clustered column chart.
I couldn't see entries for specific dates (because the number of incidents resolved was zero on that day). How do I include those dates as well showing the number to be zero?
I tried the following:
1) Enabling "Show items with no data" - While this working fine, it is removing the last 45 days filter and is showing me unnecessary trends. The last 45 days filter is set on a page level and report level filter as well.
2) Creating a new measure to replace null values with 0 when the count of incidents resolved on a particular day is 0 - It again removed last 45 days filter.
Someone please let me know what I can do to get the required trends over last 45 days.
Thanks
This can be late reply, but I hope it may be useful for future users. As I suggested in a comment, you can try using measure for achieving this.
I have designed the following table with sample data.
INCIDENT_RECORD Table:
Created Measure:
Total Incident = IF(SUM(INCIDENT_RECORD[Resolved Incident])=BLANK(),0,SUM(INCIDENT_RECORD[Resolved Incident]))
Now I have designed Clustered Column Chart with & without Measure to show difference for you.
Clustered Column Chart with/without Measure:
First graph is showing label as 0 (Zero) which doesn't have any value
for that date.
Second graph is not showing data for Jan-03 in your case.
Feel free to ask your doubts/clarifications in the comment section.
First, make sure the column on your x-axis is a date data type. Then go to the Format tab for the visual and under the X-Axis options, set the Type to Continuous (rather than Categorical).
I have this concern using Crystal Report which I am not really familiar with. Here's my scenario:
I have an existing report to update, I need to add a column (ETA) which has a datetime value. It may return more than one rows per Item No, I need to get the minimum date only per Item No from the result rows.
I already tried some solution mentioned here http://scn.sap.com/thread/1952829 but found no luck.
I used a suppression formula for the Details section of the report, but haven't succeeded yet.
IF {TableName.DateField} = Minimum({TableName.DateField}) THEN FALSE ELSE TRUE
Any possible things you can suggest me to try? Thanks in advance for this :)
good to get this value from sqlserver side. you just create a function which return a single data (minimum date).
If you wish in crystal report side, it is something you make loop of hundred for a single row display. You can use running total field for this.
Select the field , select summary type and put into the detail section.
or you can create a formula with group name option like
Minimum({TableName.DateField})

Running total field gives options for Min, Max, etc. but not Sum

I am really new to Crystal Reports and I am looking for any suggestions on how to approach the following issue:
I currently have a report that uses a record selection to limit the results by date. I would like to include in this same report a summary a total count of all the records (ignoring the record restriction). Unfortunately (although somewhat expected), the summary calculates the total after the record restriction is applied. Is there any way to get around this? In case my question is a bit unclear I've included a generic example below:
I have a report that pulls info from a database with a total of 10 records.
I select a specific date range, and it only returns 3 records
I would like to include in the report footer that 3/10 records are getting returned.
This is bit tricky to perform in crystal reports as record selection is compulsory applied. However you can overcome this by using sub report.
Calculate the report footer using report.
This will surely work
I've been doing some accounting reports and have been summing up my different currencies using a formula
IE
CanadianCommissionFormula
if {myData;1.CurrencyType} = "CDN" then
{myData;1.Commission}
else
0
CanadianCommissionSum
SUM({#CanadianCommissionFormula})
Then I'd just display the CanadianCommissionSum at the bottom of the report and things were great.
I've just come across the requirement to do this, but grouped by Sales Rep. I tried using my previous formula, but this sums for the whole report. Is there an easy way to sum like this, based on which group it's in?
You probably figured this out a year ago, but just in case, try this:
Change your CanadianCommissionSum formula to
SUM({#CanadianCommissionFormula},{SalesRep})
Put this formula in your SalesRep's Group Footer section.
This should now display properly.
Create a group based on the sales rep in the Crystal Report, and place the:
SUM({#CanadianCommissionFormula})
...in the footer of the group.
I would assume that rexem's suggestion should work but since you said it gives you a total all of the sales reps you could change the sum to running total. Before doing this I'd double check that you have your field in the correct footer section though.
To do the running total, group by Sales Rep, and then set up your running total to evaluate on every record and reset on the change of the group. Then you can put this running total in the group footer and it will show subtotals.
Hope this helps.
