I am trying to create a Crystal Report. One of the parameters that it has, is a Boolean flag which change the groupings of the Report.
What I'm trying to do is to add 3 levels of grouping from a formula.
The code that I wrote is:
if {?summarized_detailed} = true then
'Store Code : ' + {SNV_SP_ProfitabilityAndBreakEvenPerStore;1.WhsCode}
else
if {?season_supplier} = true then
'Store Code : ' + {SNV_SP_ProfitabilityAndBreakEvenPerStore;1.WhsCode} + ChrW(10) + 'Season : ' + {SNV_SP_ProfitabilityAndBreakEvenPerStore;1.SEASON} + ChrW(10) + 'Brand : ' + {SNV_SP_ProfitabilityAndBreakEvenPerStore;1.BRAND}
else
'Store Code : ' + {SNV_SP_ProfitabilityAndBreakEvenPerStore;1.WhsCode} + ChrW(10) + 'Supplier : ' + {SNV_SP_ProfitabilityAndBreakEvenPerStore;1.CardCode} + ChrW(10) + 'Brand : ' + {SNV_SP_ProfitabilityAndBreakEvenPerStore;1.BRAND}
{?summarized_detailed} is the parameter (the flag for grouping).
if he chooses true, the report must have the columns -> Store Code , Season or Supplier (it based on another flag-parameter) and Brand.
Output Layer that I have :
Name of Col1 Name of Col2 Name of Col3
Store: Value for Store Code, Season or Supplier: Value for Season or Supplier, Brand: Value for Brand | total Brand Col1 total Brand Col2 total Brand Col3 ....
With this Code, I take the result that I want. All database's rows are separated according to those groups.
The problem is, that I want to have total sum for every column that I have in my report. But I can't do this, because the above formula, created only ONE union group. So, I can have a summary only for the details within every brand.
Output Layer that I want :
Name of Col1 Name of Col2 Name of Col3
Store: Value for Store Code |
Seas or Sup: Value for Season or Supplier |
Brand: Value for Brand | total Brand Col1 total Brand Col2 total Brand Col3
//when supplier or season within all groups changes (not included in report)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Total Supplier or Season: total Sup/Season Col1 total Sup/Season Col2 total Sup/Seas Col3
//when store within all groups changes (not included in report)
Total Store: total Store Col1 total Store Col2 total Store Col3
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
With total Brand Col1 I want to do a summary for all rows of details for each field of the same brand.
With total Supplier Col1 I want to sum all total Brands for each field of the same supplier.
With total Store Col1 I want to sum all total Suppliers for each field for every shop.
How can I compute those totals and display them only when Season or Supplier changes, and when Store changes with no regarding the change of the union Group ?
Or is there an easier and better way to make those 3 groups from formula according to the parameter but let them be separated so that I can control them and do my summarizes ?
This is how I handle this type of requirement:
If you want a maximum of 3 groups, but potentially less, then you need to create two different formula fields. In the report design, you set grouping to group on Store_Code first, then the other two formula fields.
If the refresh/runtime parameter will be FALSE for when you want the three-level grouping, then the formulas should look something like this:
Group1_Formula1: if {?param} = TRUE then '' else {Season}
Then the next:
Group2_Formula: if {?param} = TRUE then '' else {Brand}
If you want totals/subtotal the just place them as summary fields in the group headers, with conditional display to suppress them as necessary.
The result will be that, even though grouping on all three levels is always taking place, for the subgroups below the always-active "Store_Code" each subgroup will have only a single group of all records if the {?Param} = TRUE, effectively meaning there is no grouping happening.
One caveat: This presumes you aren't using print-time evaluation, e.g. before/after printing, etc., in any of the related formulas necessary to perform your grouping.

I am trying to create a report which has addresses in form of house Nbr and street Name. I want to group all address by street name and then order them by house nbr which is a string but should sort like a number. Ideally i would like the odd ascending and then the evens descending so that my list would look like
1,3,5,7,9 .... 8,6,4,2
How would i go about this ? I created first group on street name and then 2nd group on house number with a formula for sorting of nbrs
i created a Formula Field OddEven with
ToNumber({tbl_FarmMaster.sano}) MOD 2
but i am having hard time applying that to my group
Create two formulas like below. Let's call them oddFirst and negativeEven.
oddFirst formula:
ToNumber({tbl_FarmMaster.sano}) MOD 2 == 1 then
1 //it is odd
else
2 //it is even
negativeEven formula:
if ToNumber({tbl_FarmMaster.sano}) MOD 2 == 1 then
ToNumber({tbl_FarmMaster.sano}) //it is odd
else
-ToNumber({tbl_FarmMaster.sano}) //it is even, note the negative sign
Then create two groups to sort:
first by the formula oddFirst
second by the formula negativeEven
Show the {tbl_FarmMaster.sano} field.
How can I indicate multiple records with the same Invoice number, but a different Sales Person ID? Our commissions can be split into multiple Salespeople, so there can be two different Salespeople per an invoice.
For example:
Grouped by: Sales Person ID (No Changing this option)
These records are in the Group Footer.
Sales Person ID: Invoice: Invoice Amt: Commissions: (Indicator)
4433 R100 20,000 3,025 * More than one record on the same invoice with a different sales person
4450 R096 1,987 320
4599 R100 20,000 3,025 * More than one record on the same invoice with a different sales person
4615 R148 560 75
4777 R122 2,574 356
If your report has less than 1000 invoices, you may try something like this.
This will return true when a second ocurrence of the invoice shows up. Then you can make something like set the row background do red.
Global NumberVar Array invoices;
numbervar nextIndex := count(invoices) + 1;
if nextIndex <= 1000 and not ({Result.InvoiceNumber} in invoices) then (
redim invoices [nextIndex];
invoices[nextIndex] := {Result.InvoiceNumber};
true;
)
else false;
If you want to detect the first occurrence, you will need something more sophisticated.
I think a SQL Expression Field would be a good way to achieve the result you want. You already have an InvoiceNo in each row of data. You just need a SQL Expression Field that uses that INvoiceNo to execute a query to count the number of salespersons who get a commission.
Something along the lines of:
(
Select Count(Sales_Person_Id)
From [Table]
Where [Table].InvoiceNo = InvoiceNo
)
This will return an integer value that represents the number of salespersons who are associated with one invoice. You can either drop the SQL Expression Field in your Indicator column, or write some other formula to do something special.
How can I write a calculation field in a table that outputs '1' if there are other (related) records in the same table that meet a given set of criteria and '0' otherwise?
Here's my problem explained in more detail:
I have a table containing 'students' and another containing 'exam results'. The 'exam results' table looks like this:
StudentID SubjectID Level Result
3234 1 2 A-
3234 2 4 B+
4739 1 4 C+
A student can only pass a Level 4 exam in subject 2 if they have also passed a Level 2 exam in subject 1 with a B+ or higher. I want to define a field in the 'students' table that contains a '1' if there exists an exam result belonging to the right student that meets these criteria and a '0' otherwise.
What would be the best way to do this?
Let us take an example of a Results table where the results are also calculated as a numeric value, e.g.
StudentID SubjectID Level Result cResultNum
3234 1 2 A- 95
3234 2 4 B+ 85
4739 1 4 C+ 75
and an Exams table with the following fields (among others):
RequiredSubjectID
RequiredLevel
RequiredResultNum
Given these, you can construct a relationship between Exams and (another occurrence of) Results as:
Exams::RequiredSubjectID = Results 2::SubjectID
AND
Exams::RequiredLevel = Results 2::Level
AND
Exams::RequiredResultNum ≤ Results 2::cResultNum
This allows each exam record to calculate a list of students that are eligible to take that exam as =
List ( Results 2::StudentID )
I want to define a field in the 'students' table that contains a '1'
if there exists an exam result belonging to the right student that
meets these criteria and a '0' otherwise.
This request is unclear, because there are many exams a student may want to take, and a field in the Students table can calculate only one result.
You need to do a self-join in the table for the field you want to check, for example:
Exam::Level = Exam2::Level
Exam::Student = Exam2::Student
And for the "was passed" criteria I think you could do an "If" on the calculation like this:
If ( Last(Exam2::Result) = "D" and ...(all the pass values) ; 1 ; 0 )
Edit:
It could be just with the not pass value hehe I miss that it will be like this:
If ( Last(Exam2::Result) = "F" ; 0 ; 1 )
I hope this helps you.
I have a report which has essentially
Order
OrderDetail 1
OrderDetail ..
OrderDetail n
These details can have parts and/or labour costs associated with them.
Currently, I group based on OrderId and then have the OrderDetail information in the details section of the report. This works perfectly.
However, now I need to group the Orders based on two criteria OrderType and LabourCost of the entire Order. I have put together a quick formula to determine order.
if(Sum({order.Labour}, {order.OrderId})> 0) then
if({order.type} = "type1") then 1 else 2
else
if({order.type} = "type1") then 3 else 4
Basically, if it should be sorted based on labour then on type. (the Sum({order.Labour}, {order.OrderId}) sums the labour grouping based on the orderid)
However when I go to the Group Expert and add the group by field to my formula and then preview my report it spins (I cancelled the preview after a minute). If I remove the Sum portion of the formula then it takes less than a second.
Is there a way to order this report?
How I would approach it:
First, create a sql-expresssion field that calculates the labor total for each order:
// {%TOTAL_LABOR}
(
SELECT Sum(Labour)
FROM OrderDetail
WHERE OrderId=Order.OrderId
)
Next, create a formula field:
// {#OrderGroup}
if({%TOTAL_LABOR}> 0) then
if({order.type} = "type1") then 1 else 2
else
if({order.type} = "type1") then 3 else 4
Finally, create a new group, based on the formula field, ensuring that it groups before the order group. You can suppress the group's header and footer if desired.
I want to get grouped data from a table in sqlite. For example, the table is like below:
Name Group Price
a 1 10
b 1 9
c 1 10
d 2 11
e 2 10
f 3 12
g 3 10
h 1 11
Now I want get all data grouped by the Group column, each group in one array, namely
array1 = {{a,1,10},{b,1,9},{c,1,10},{h,1,11}};
array2 = {{d,2,11},{e,2,10}};
array3 = {{f,3,12},{g,3,10}}.
Because i need these 2 dimension arrays to populate the grouped table view. the sql statement maybe NSString *sql = #"SELECT * FROM table GROUP BY Group"; But I wonder how to get the data from the resultset. I am using the FMDB.
Any help is appreciated.
Get the data from sql with a normal SELECT statement, ordered by group and name:
SELECT * FROM table ORDER BY group, name;
Then in code, build your arrays, switching to fill the next array when the group id changes.
Let me clear about GroupBy. You can group data but that time its require group function on other columns.
e.g. Table has list of students in which there are gender group mean Male & Female group so we can group this table by Gender which will return two set . Now we need to perform some operation on result column.
e.g. Maximum marks or Average marks of each group
In your case you want to group but what kind of operation you require on price column ?.
e.g. below query will return group with max price.
SELECT Group,MAX(Price) AS MaxPriceByEachGroup FROM TABLE GROUP BY(group)
