Horizontal Across Aggregation in Report [message #78299] Sun, 02 October 2005 17:02 Go to next message

I need to create a report where the data are aggregated in two dimensions:
1) horizontally, with the totals calculated on the right side of the rows,
and
2) vertically, with totals at the bottom of the columns.
The records selected from the database have a structure (dimension1 value,
dimension2 value, numericeal value)
Is this possible with Birt and how can I do this?

Thanks in advance,
Wim

Could someone define the word crosstab?
Would it be the feature I described in my previous question in this thread?

Thanks in advance,
Wim

Wim,

I think that it is. I would define a CrossTab as a report in which both
the rows and the columns can grow. Imagine that we have a company
selling products in a number of cities. A crosstab report of that data
would be one that shows

City1 City2 City3 City N Total Per
Product
Product 1 $10 $8 $7 $6 $31
Product 2 $11 $9 $6 $5 $31
Product 3 $12 $7 $5 $4 $28
Product N $13 $6 $4 $3 $26
Total per City $46 $30 $22 $18 $116

Where the N column or the N row could repeat an unlimited number of times.

One of the issues is how to deal with columns that grow past the width
of the page.
