Two records displaying incorrect values in cognos report

[akassouf]

Hello,

So I have a crosstab report and two of the records are displaying wrong values sometimes. Here is a simple representation of what I'm working with. This is not the actual data I'm using. I just created a mock-up to improve readability.


                                   |   Shirts   |   Pants   |   Coats   |
----------------------------------------------------------------
            |     Sales         |     $15    |     $25   |     $70     |
Store 1  |    Items Sold  |      2      |       1     |      2        |
            |     Profit         |      $5     |    $10    |     $20     |
----------------------------------------------------------------
            |     Sales         |     $12    |     $20   |     $72     |
Store 2  |    Items Sold  |      3      |       1     |       6       |
            |     Profit         |      $2     |     $15   |      $10    |
----------------------------------------------------------------
            |     Sales         |     $20    |     $13   |     $40     |
Store 3  |    Items Sold  |      1      |       2     |       1       |
            |     Profit         |      $5     |      $3    |      $23    |
----------------------------------------------------------------

My issue is that (Store 1.Items Sold) is all correct, then (Store 2.Items Sold) is all incorrect, and then (Store 3.Items Sold) is only correct for Shirts.

So my question is... where do you guys think I should look into finding the error? We have written a query to test the report data and everything is correct except for that one record (Items Sold). It's correct for some stores, all wrong for some stores, and only partially correct for some stores.

Any help is appreciated! Thank you!

Without knowing anything about your data, I'd start with the SQL that the report is generating
