Title: Grouping without displaying column in cross tab in the same line
Post by: venkiatmaruthi on 13 Dec 2010 04:00:40 AM
Hi,

I have a crosstab.
I have columns as Month -> Buy/Sell Type (column grouping)
I have rows as Region -> Material -> (row grouping)
sales in volume as the fact cell

I have two system one is SAP and another is SQL Server. we call it as Source. The data for comes from SQL Server for last two months and for earlier months comes from SAP.

Customer asking like the volume that comes from SQL Server should be highlighted.
If I add source in the columns at 3rd level... two columns coming for SAP &  SQL Server.
If I add source in the rows at 3rd level... two rows coming for SAP & SQL Server.

But I want all of them in a single row. How could I solve it?

the looks like the below__

                                                           Sep2010          oct2010              Nov2010             Dec2010
                                                               buy                 buy                     buy                  buy
westregion         Television  [source hided]     550               300

eastregion         Television   [source hided]     10                  20                        30                     40
