     Posted: 24 Sep 2009 at 8:58am
i am working on a report that is grouped by:
 
Name
Invoice. Date (grouped in month)
 
i.e.
John           total job completed 300 <--that's a distinct count.
8/2009                                      250<--that's a distinct count.
9/2009                                        50<--that's a distinct count.
 
I would like to calculate the average for the month....
how would i do that?

Ok just in case this wasn't making sense.
 
Group#1 Salesman.Name
Group #2 Invoice.Date (Grouped per month)
Details- Invoice.Date etc.
 
What I would like....
 
G#1: John      Total Invoices     per Month         Per Week          Per day
                             700         350                    88                18       
              
G#2: 8/2009         500     
         7/2009         200
 
Total invoices : distinct count Summary for InvoiceNumbers
 
I can't do an average of a count summary- I tried passing as a variable and then doing the average. Still did not work.
 
Any suggestions. Plz

create formula for month as {@Month}
Totext(DATE({Invoice.Date}),"MM/yyyy")

for Average
DistinctCount ({InvoiceNumber}, { Salesman.Name})/DistinctCount ({@Month}, { Salesman.Name})

Hope gives you idea to calculate for week,day as well

You had suggested to use:

 

Totext(DATE({Invoice.Date}),"MM/yyyy")
 
but i kept getting a dialog box "A date-time is required here"
 
so for my @month i have:

Totext(({INVOICE.DATE}),"MM/yyyy")
 
it appears to be working fine...i'm trying to do the same for the per week and per day count but thats not working
