I need a report that has office, date and order count. I need the total count of orders per month, but only 1 order count per day.
e.g.
West 1/1/2009 1 order
West 1/1/2009 1 order
West 1/2/2009 1 order
on my report I would see
West 1/1/2009 1 order
West 1/2/2009 1 order
and my total orders would be 2.
This would be really easy with SQL, I know, but I do not have access.
You can create three groups, one for office, one for date, and one for order. Then put the fields in the day group footer and suppress the other sections. This will cause the report to show a new section for each day, but only show one row for each order. Then you can add your running total to the section. Set the running total up to sum the field you want, evaluate on change of day group and then reset on change of month (you’ll need to set a formula up for this one to evaluate the month).
This should group and order the report like you are looking for and will have a running total that will run along side which will reset per month. Hope this helps.
