Group Selection? 1

[aradics]

Taking a stab at Business Objects today. I'm an expert-level report developer in Crystal Reports..trying to find similar functions in BO.

How would you do a grouop selection in BO? I'm subtotaling constituents by donation. I want to filter the report for those constituents who's comnbined donations are $10000 and higher.

Thanks!

Good luck!

This is an issue with BO. You want to build a derived filter. Unfortunately, you can't build a derived filter on an aggregated value.

What you can do.....
Build a variable that does something like:

=if (<donation> in <person>) > 10000 then 1 else 0

Then use BO's ranking function and rank against your new variable.
