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.

I'm trying to modify a report that shows the Top 10 Customers by Sales. Currently, the report shows the top 10 customers, and stops.
I'm trying to remove the limit of 10, so I can see all customers sales data. I can't find where the report is setting this limit. I've looked through the formula editor, and can't find any relevant formulas to this limit.
Also there are no suppression formulas.
Any ideas?
Found the answer.
Under the Report > Group Sort Expert menu, I was able to select between:
No Sort
All
Top N
Bottom N
Top Percentage
Bottom Percentage
for the group sort. I selected All, and now all my records are showing.
I have a crystal report with three columns. I want to display all the records and a total in the last row. However, my crystal report is grouping by default. I am confused
This is how I do it in the CR.
This is how it shows
Thi sis how i wanted
I want everything in a single table and a one toal for each. Why is it grouping this way? Any help would be appreciated.
EDITED
Below is how i arrived at the TOTAL
Formulas
O/S BALANCE := amount - collected.
OSBALANCE TOTAL := SUM{#O?S BALANCE});
COLLECTED TOTAL := SUM({colection})
Add a cross-tab object to the report's footer section. Use the OS BALANCE field for the rows field and the COLLECTED for the summarized field.
See that is where it makes the difference in crystal reports. I will suggest one thing place OSBalance in detail and put the total in report footer and let me know the result
I have a jasper report being made with iReport, which is basically a list of pages received the day prior. The report has total pages for the whole day and then individual totals for each group of page types.
The requirements state I need to display all the totals above the listed records and groups (ex. display in the title band). I created a variable for the total of all pages and that works but am having trouble getting each individual group total.
It should look like:
Total pages received: 50
Total GROUP_A: 20 Total GROUP_B: 30
When I try to use the variable set up for group totals, it only gives me the last used group, so it would say 30. I'm unsure how to create a variable to get the total for only a specific group.
I could include in my SQL result set the totals but was asked to do it within iReport.
If I understand the problem right you need to put a copy of the variable that you are using in the group and put it in your title band. the trick is on the object in the title band make sure you have set the evaluation time & evaluation group group or report depending on what you are truing to get a total of.
I have a report which displays information by group; I'd like to not show any group that doesn't have at least two items in it. Is there an easy way to do this?
Example:
Bob
3/1
4/3
Joe
3/2
3/7
3/9
Mark
5/9
James
John
8/17
9/2
Grouped on name, should not show Mark or James.
If your report is simplistic enough, you can get away with just suppressing the Group Header, Group Footer, and Details sections by using a summary function like count({table.somedate},{table.dudesname}) < 2. Note that the second parameter to a summary function has to be a field being used to group on.
Your mileage may vary with doing it this way. If you are displaying calculated summaries in the report footer, for example, it won't make sense to just suppress these groups as their data will still affect any report-level summary. The other problem you might run into is needing to use a distinct count on some field instead of just a count, depending on your table joins.
You could create a group-selection formula (Report | Selection Formula | Group...):
Count({table.field_to_count}, {table.grouped_field}) < 2
I have a problem with running Total in Crsystal report9
if their is no values available for a Paticular field how can we return the running total as '0'
Instead of display the Running Total directly in your report create a Formula Field based on the Running Total and drag it into the report.
Your formula should look like this (Crystal Syntax)...
if ISNULL({#RunningTotalField}) then
"0.00"
else
ToText(RunningTotalField, 2)
If there is no data for that particular group, then Crystal won't show it easily. Your options are :
1) Use subreports to display the values for a particular group, and keep the main report just looking at the table(s) containing the group headers.
2) Use a stored procedure as the source so you have full control over the SQL that is run.
The problem is that as soon as you use a field to group, Crystal will only return records where that field has been used. If it was simply in the Details section you could modify the link to a LEFT JOIN and it wouldn't matter, but the group forces the INNER JOIN which means the groups without data are not returned.
Unfortunately Running Totals don't show up if there are no records that match your criteria. An alternative is to use a set of formulas calculated in various sections of the report. The technique is widely described in the Crystal literature. For example, this TekTips gives a very succinct overview of your options.
You set up an initialising formula in each header, with the evaluation time directive "WhilePrintingRecords". This approach was the only one available for doing running totals in the "good ol' days" before RunningTotal objects were available.
