Topic: Group Issue in formula Posted: 31 Mar 2014 at 11:34pm
Hello
To eradicate duplication in a report that is leading to a sum being incorrect I was going to create a formula to divide the sum by the number of records. In principle this works fine but when creating the formula I am facing a problem. I have inserted the summary to the group FNO_SEQ4 but when I select the sum in the formula editor
Sum ({SRS_FNP.FNP_AMNT}, {SRS_FNO.FNO_SEQ4})
I get a message saying there must be a group that matches this field. I know the group exists as I have just created it and can see it in the report, any ideas? I'm not sure if it is something to do with the table rather than what I am trying to achieve as when originally entering the group the value kept displaying as zero despite browse data showing the correct value. I removed the group and re-added it and the values appeared correctly. Has anyone seen anything like this before? I feel like I am going mad!!

All I know that sometimes Crystal 'hiccups' and does not 'see' what you are seeing. Sometimes just saving your work, closing Crystal and then re-opening Crystal seems to clear out whatever was causing the weirdness.
