accumulating starting at group level

I have a report using two files: project and unit.
I am accumulating unit data to the project (group 2) level.
I am using a numeric field from the project file in the group 2 total line.
I want to accumulate that field to higher levels, but have not been able to figure out how to do it.
The built-in subtotals only accumulate from the detail level
Can anyone help?
 
I assume you are trying to avoid accumulating a value at the Project level for each unit within that project.

If that's the case, simply use a Running Total and specify an "Evaluate" option for each Project group. This will
ensure the total will accumulate only once for each project.

Cheers,
