You need to do a left outer link to you PartBin Table. Format the field so
the 0 will appear for an unknown.

We no longer allow attachments to files. To access/share Report Files,
please go to the following link: http://www.egroups.com/files/vantage/

You need to update the aggregate field, click 'Options', and under
processing, select 'Pre-pass'.
3
Is your aggregate set to "PRE PASS"? If not you can change
that in the aggregate definition screen (Options button)

Thanks for the advice, but I don't have a group defined as part#. I am just
starting to get my hand around this. Basically all I've done is start with
Invoice data base. I can pull up all of the given transactions for each
part number after, July for example. But, I only want the last one. So, no
I don't have a group defined as part #.

Thanks,

Dean

I think he means for you to create a group in your report builder
report-this group would be defined as partno. Then you create an aggregate
calculation in that group's footer to get the info that you want. Re-read
his suggestion and give it a whirl. It sure got me thinking about a couple
of things I've tried previously and couldn't get to work.

I believe that all you need to do is create a group based on part number.
Delete or suppress the record band line. Then create a new group footer
band line. Put all of the information you need into the group footer band
line. Then sort in ascending order on the invoice number. this will give
you one line of information on the report that corresponds to the last time
the part was invoiced.

Hope this helps. Feel free to call me with questions.

I am writing a program in Report Builder. I need the program to give me
that LAST instance a part was sold. I can get it to bring up ALL of them,
but I only want the last one, no matter when it was sold. Can anyone help
me?

Mark,

You need to make an outer join on the part bin table. This should do it for you.
