Info in subform showing up multiple times..

[stephendeloach via AccessMonster.com]

I have created a report that will summarize all of my invoices that are in
the Invoice form. My problem is that in the report it is showing all of the
seperate charges on the same invoice. Say if there is 3 charges on the one
invoice, that invoice comes up 3 times on the report. I can get the report to
show the invoices only one time, but I need the netamount in the report also.
In order for the netamount to be shown I need the quantity and unitprice in
the report, causing the problem of the charges coming up more than once...
Can someone please help me?

So you have a report based on a query. The query uses the Invoice table
(invoice header information) and the InvoiceDetail table (invoice line
items.) The problem is that if an invoice has 3 line items, this query
produces 3 rows, and so the invoices appears 3 times on the report.

If you want the totals only on the report (not listing the line items), you
can do that by changing the query to a Totals query:
1. Open the query in design view.

2. Depress the Total button on the toolbar.
Access adds a Total row to the design grid.

3. In the total row, accept Group By under the fields from the Invoice
table, but change it for the fields from the InvoiceDetail row. For example,
choose Sum under the Amount field to get the net amount.

4. After verfiying the query gives the results you want, open the report in
design view, and delete the controls bound to fields from the InvoiceDetail
table. Replace them with controls bound to the new field names, such as
SumOfAmount.

If you do want to show the line items in the report, the other approach is
to leave the query the way it was, and use the Sorting And Grouping box in
the report:
1. With the report open in design view, open this dialog (View menu.)

2. Choose the InvoiceID field, and in the lower pane of the dialog, set
Group Header to Yes and Group Footer to Yes. Access adds a header section
above the Detail, and a footer section below.

3. Move the appropriate controls into the group header section (e.g. the
invoice number, date, and address panel.)

4. In the group footer section, add a text box with its control source set
to something like this:
=Sum([Amount])
substituting your field name for Amount.

It is also possible to perform the grouping in the report instead of the
query, suppressing the line items by setting the Visible property of the
report's Detail section to No.

I have changed my query to group by SumofUnitPrice and SumofQuantity. When I
run the query everything is great. When I run the report everything looks
good, but i cant get the netamount to come out right. I dont have the
netamount in the form because everyone says it is bad to have a calculation
in a form. So what I have been doing is =Sum([Quantity]*[UnitPrice]) but now
it isnt calculating right because the quantity and unitprice are added
together... Any suggestions on what calculation should be in the NetAmount
field?? Thanks for getting me this far!

Works great! Now, next question.. on my form I have a check box. When the
checkbox (Taxable) is checked in the single invoice report, it knows to add
in the tax. How can I can make the InvoiceSummary report know to add in the
Tax? These are the formulas in the single invoice report...

Non-Taxable =Sum(IIf([taxablechk]=False,[quantity]*[UnitPrice],0))

Taxable =Sum(IIf([taxablechk]=True,[quantity]*[UnitPrice],0))

and for Tax to be added in...

Tax =Sum(IIf([taxablechk]=True,[quantity]*[unitprice],0))*[Tax]


Thanks!

Presumably TaxableChk is the yes/no field in the Charges table, so the
calculated field would be something like this query:

Sum(Charges.Quantity) AS SumOfQuantity,
Charges.[Invoice#] AS [Charges_Invoice#],
Charges.TaxableChk,
Table1.[BillTo:],

not a factor in the problem you are wrestling with, but it would be a good
idea to change it anyway. For an (extensive) list of the field names to
