    Sorting Data for Mailing Labels

    Just to refresh your memory, synapsevampire, this is what you initially suggested to me: If you have a date field that shows when he left, then add something akin to the following to the record selection formula (Report->Edit Selection Formula->Record): isnull({yourtable.yourexitdate})

    Sorting Data for Mailing Labels

    Thanks synapsevampire. You initial idea, about choosing only the records without an Assignment End Date, is worth looking into. Currently the field which houses this information is not populated. Perhaps we should expedite this task. Do you agree?

    Excluding Records for Mailing Labels

    Does anyone know why I get the following message in the Record Selection Formula Editor: This function cannot be used because it must be evaluated later. I've grouped my records by Social Security Number and I wish to only have the most recent Assigned Date. This is the formula I am...

    synapsevampire & Howard, When I enter this formula: {table.assignmentdate} = maximum({table.assignmentdate},{table.socialsecurity}) I get this message after checking for errors: This function cannot be used because it must be evaluated later. Did I miss a step? I created a group using SS#...

    Excluding Records for Mailing Labels

    Thanks, synapsevampire! If you wanted to know my experience with this report, I've been trying to perfect it for some time. My original course of action was to suppress the inactive worksite labels using the following formula: Not onfirstrecord and {ado.EMPLOYEE.FICA-NBR} = previous...

    Excluding Records for Mailing Labels

    And synapsevampire, just want to make sure: You typed: {table.assignmentdate} = maximum({table.Participant Enrollment Date},{table.Participant Social Security Number}) Did you purposely use {table.Participant Enrollment Date}? Or should that also be {table.assignmentdate} like Howard had it...

    Right. I just wanted to make sure that creating a grouping and suppressing will not affect this. Thank you for confirming!

    Excluding Records for Mailing Labels

    synapsevampire & Howard, Okay, so these are the steps I need to perform: 1. Group by SS# 2. Add the following to the Record Selection formula: {table.assignmentdate} = maximum({table.Participant Enrollment Date},{table.Participant Social Security Number}) 3. Suppress the group header and...

    Excluding Records for Mailing Labels

    Hi everyone, Our database has a table that contains participant records. For some participants, there will be more than one record associated with his/her Social Security Number. This is due to the fact that our participants can re-enroll in our program and are assigned to various...
