Did you ever get around this issue? I have the same problem. I have a crosstab report with users and their reported workhours. I created a section based on the User so the end user can view the report based on user. They also want to know the total working hours for each selected users and I can't find a solution, how to show the total of the subtotals in each section.

I am hoping to revive this post. I have a report studio report that I have sectioned (as opposed to grouping). If I add a total, it just gives the grand total of all sections. Is there a way to add a section total?

Why not override the definition of the subtotal by an aggregate within the context?

total([measure] for [sectioned_dataitem])
