How to display the Group headers in the Report Header

Hi,

I have a report with two columns as specified below:

Type | Count

A | 20 A | 30 A | 10 B | 5 B | 7 C | 10 C | 15 Total A : 60 Total B : 12 Total C : 25

The detail block will be varying and can have multiple types and the report header should be varying accordingly. As per the requirement there is a main query which is retrieving the data for the detail block. But when i use group expert , it is displaying the group header after each group, but i want those types and the sum of the count in the report footer. Can you please kindly let me know if there is any solution without calling the same query once again to retrieve the count. The query retrieves a huge data and the business is not allowing to call the query twice in the report.

Hi,

Please create a cross tab and place it in the report footer.

Hi,

I created a cross tab report with Type and count.
i updated the first column Display String as "Type " + CurrentFieldValue. some of the description in the CurrentFieldValue is coming more than width of the row and it is not getting displayed. And the option that allows a field to grow is disabled which is not allowing a field to grow dynamically.

For Example:
If one of the type is ‘Dcnt’
The report should like

Total A : 60 Total B : 12 Total C : 25 Total Dcnt : 12

and not like as below:

Total A: 60
Total B: 12
Total C: 25
Total Dcnt : 12

When i am trying to display the field Total Dcnt, It is getting truncating and i could not able to display “:” also in a same position for all the records, i.e, the colon should be the last which should be aligned for all the records according to greatest length of the row. In this example Total Dcnt is the maximum length, so the colon should be aligned according to its length.

Can you please kindly let me know how to fix this issue.

Thanks!!!

Thanks for the reply,

Actually i do not have access to the system to transfer the details.

Please find the attached files that includes expected outputs and the Current output.

The Current output screen is not displaying the text Cnt since it is displayed in the second line and the column is not expanding as the data grows.

Kindly help me to resolve this issue.

Hi,

Please note that Can Grow is disabled for the cells of cross tab. In order to see the complete text increase the length of the cell of cross tab.

Cheers!!!
