Greetings and Salutations to All!

Here is my issue. I am composing a report that gives a basic status report on Inventory currently on-hand. Besides running the report off of Model Numbers (1), the report contains five additional fields - Ready for Issue (not broken) (2), Not Ready for Issue (broken) (3), Total (sum of fields 2 & 3) (4), and TOTAL VALUE (sum of field 4 multiplied by inventory cost - supplied by field ITEM.IN5) (5).

I am unable to get my TOTAL VALUE to function. I have the formula as: ({@SUM OF A & F} * {item.in5})

***
I have an inventory item, it's name is ABC-123. I have 2 RFI and 1 NRFI. Each individual part is worth $200.00 Should produce me a total value of $600.00 -- alas, it produces me the original cost of $200.00

EXAMPLE:

(CURRENTLY PRODUCES)
MODEL RFI NRFI TOTAL TOTAL VALUE
----- --- ---- ----- -----------
ABC-123 2 1 3 $200.00

(SHOULD PRODUCE)

MODEL RFI NRFI TOTAL TOTAL VALUE
----- --- ---- ----- -----------
ABC-123 2 1 3 $600.00

Thanks everyone!!! X-)

Hi Cherrel,

If I read this right, shouldn't the formula be,
{field.4} which is total units * {field.5} which is unit price, so 3 x 200 = 600 ?

Nuffsaid.
 
Nuffsaid,

You are correct. The formula you provided and my formula is supposed to produce the same answer.

Cherrel,

If you use the following forumla is it still giving you bad results?

({A}+{F})*{item.in5}

dgillz,

I set-up the formula as you suggested and I am still getting the cost for only one of the inventory items. :-(

? ? ?

O.K. dumb question time.....

Are all fields and formulas in the detail section?

Are you 100% sure that the information within your fields is correct?

Nuffsaid.
 
Do a formula ({A}+{F}) and make sure the answer is not 1. Software Support for Sage Mas90, Macola, Crystal Reports, Goldmine and MS Office
