Crystal Reports Troubleshooting

I got around this on a report with different needs by creating a
subreport to total my MISC items.

I am trying to write a report that has multiple miscellaneous charges
on the line. If Line 1 has 3 miscellaneous charges (or three SeqNum,
then all the information for Line 1 is repeated 3 times to match the
charges. This, of course, causes problems when I subtotal the Book
Value column. I have tried to join differently, supress, use a sum
calculation, but have not had any success in pulling in the 3
miscellaneous charges as a total on the Line 1. The tables I am using
are BookDtl, OrderMsc, OrderDtl, and Customer. I have grouped by
Product Code, then Type, then order #. Can anyone offer any advice?
Thanx!

How are you grouping the report. Use OrderHed & OrderDtl as the groups. Do
not put everything in the Detail line just the MscCharge Field. Put the
OrderNum, OrderLine fields in the Order Line Group. Then the Misc Charges
for the each line will show just for that line.

I had the same issue for some Sales Reporting from Invoice and after trying
a subreport (which worked but was slow) it dawned on me to pull the Misc
Charge detail by Invoice Line.

Thank you!! I added a formula to the Section to suppress blank
(empty) line values: ISNULL({OrderMsc.MiscAmt}) or {OrderMsc.MiscAmt}
= 0

It looks great!!

One of our Sales Reps is getting an error 138 in
Vantage when trying to work on a particular customer
in Customer Maintenance (V 6.1). It says something
like "Customer Contact Not On File", but it is on
file.

Any ideas?

Thanks.
