Insert a Group
A Group is used to add subtotals and/or totals to your report. For example, your report may list all employees for all departments and you need to show the number of employees within each department. To do this you would insert a Group based on the Department ID, add a 'count' for each group and total the number of employees in each department.
- Select the Insert option from the Toolbar.
-
Select Group.
A list of all fields selected for your report will be displayed.
- Select the field on which you wish to group records and select OK. A Group Header and Group Footer labelled with the field name selected for grouping, will be inserted into your report design structure.
-
You may now work with Elements within your Group Header and Group Footer.
Note: When you use Groups and Group headings you may wish to suppress the Section Header to avoid double headings at the top of each page.
