Topic: Date calculations in cross tab Posted: 14 Jul 2011 at 6:22am
Hello,
I have crystal reports 2008 and i am creating a report that uses a crosstab to summarize dates. I need to add a column that calculates the difference between 2 summarized dates.
I tried using the calculated member option, but it only works on numbers, so it won't calculate the number of days that is the difference between 2 dates. It will only display today's date in all the rows in the calculated column.
yes i did, but i kept getting an error message about the formula being supposed to return a date, which means that the calculation column is expected to be of the same type as the summaries!
obviously, i need the difference in days, which is a number.
yes i know, and that is what i want, except that the calculated member formula is refusing it, and what the return type to be a date, to match the other summaries, and this is exactly my problem.
So i was wondering if there was a way around it, so that i can have numbers in the calculation fields, not dates.
