Crosstab records not lined up

I have a crosstab report that looks like this:

A B
1 x
2 x
3 x
1 x
2 x
3 x

It should look like this:

A B
1 x x
2 x x
3 x x

I have been unable to get it to display correctly. Does anyone know how to fix it?

Are the x’s measure objects with qualification functions other than NONE? If they are not, this is the type of behavior to expect. For example

  • the x’s are dimensions.
  • the x’s are measures with qualification functions of NONE.

Hi Linda:
We had a similar problem while creating a product catalogue. We got around it by creating a view on the database side. However, whether our solution makes sense for your situation would depend on the size of your tables and how many values you have going across the columns (i.e. A,B…n). Is the number of values in the columns and the size of the table realitively small? Also, is X a measure (with a qualification function of none) or a dimension?

Check, that you use an aggregation function (like sum() or …) on the ‘x’ values…
