Question

I have a multicolumn crystal reports, Now i want to display running total for both weight & amount column's. The image of actual report is this

But crystal report designer does not show other columns, so on which column should i compute the value.

Answer 1

Follow this approach:

Create a formula named "RunningTotal" with the following text:

//{@RunningTotal}
WhilePrintingRecords;
Numbervar RunningTotal_Amount;
Numbervar RunningTotal_Weight

Add this formula to the Report Header section (suppress it after you finish testing)

Create another formula named "PageTotal.Reset" with the following text:

//{@PageTotal.Reset}
WhilePrintingRecords;
Numbervar PageTotal_Amount:=0;
Numbervar PageTotal_Weight:=0;

Add this formula to the Page Header section (suppress it after you finish testing)

Create another formula named "PageTotal.Increment" with the following text:

//{@PageTotal.Increment}
WhilePrintingRecords;
Numbervar PageTotal_Amount:=PageTotal_Amount+{TABLE.AMOUNT_FIELD};
Numbervar PageTotal_Weight:=PageTotal_Weight+{TABLE.WEIGHT_FIELD};

Add this formula to the Details section (suppress it after you finish testing)

Create a formula named "PageTotal.Weight.Amount" with the following text:

//{@PageTotal.Amount.Display}
WhilePrintingRecords;
Numbervar PageTotal_Amount;

Add this formula to the Page Footer section. DON'T suppress it, as this will display the page's total.

Create a formula named "PageTotal.Weight.Display" with the following text:

//{@PageTotal.Weight.Display}
WhilePrintingRecords;
Numbervar PageTotal_Weight;

Add this formula to the Page Footer section. DON'T suppress it.

Create a formula named "RunningTotal.Amount.Display" with the following text:

//{@RunningTotal.Amount.Display}
whileprintingrecords;
Numbervar RunningTotal_Amount;
RunningTotal_Amount:=RunningTotal_Amount+{@PageTotal.Amount.Display};

Add this formula to the Page Footer section. DON'T suppress it.

Create a formula named "RunningTotal.Weight.Display" with the following text:

//{@RunningTotal.Weight.Display}
whileprintingrecords;
Numbervar RunningTotal_Weight;
RunningTotal_Weight:=RunningTotal_Weight+{@PageTotal.Weight.Display};

Add this formula to the Page Footer section. DON'T suppress it.

You may need to adapt this approach a little to handle the multi-column display.
