Deleted Purchase Line, Footer by accident..

yuppicide

Nav 3.10.

I copied a report and saved it as something else.

Modified it as needed.

I wanted a total at the bottom, which it did not have before.. I have it CREATETOTALS, but they come out as 0.00. Am I only allowed to put my total in the "Purchase Line, Footer" section?

If so, I deleted that earlier to save space.. is there any way to add it back or should I just copy my report again and start over?

Really that's a decision only you can make. There are three options:

1/ Restore the old and redo any work you did since.
2/ Add back the section you removed along with sections and code.
3/ Export both to text and merge.

If you don;t know which is best then I recommend you try all three and use it as a learning excessive so that next time you feel comfortable to decide which method suits you best.

Personally in most cases like this, I restore the old object to another db (or as a different report number) and then manually put back in the removed section. (i.e. 2/ )

I personally prefer merging the two object text files, it takes me less time than copying sections and code, and that way I don't forget any code that is 'hidden' behind sections and controls.

So do totals only work if I put the in the footer section?

Savatage

View-> Sections->Hit F3 to add a new section.

You have choices.
1.Trans Footer
2.Group Footer
3.Footer

It would take you less time to create a report with t he wizard and try it than it takes you to write the post here asking.

Not that no one wants to help, but you know teach a man to fish and all that.
