The report type can be changed at any time during the lifetime of your report element.

TARGET Reports supports the following report types:

 Summary Report

In order to create a summary report, your report setup should have at least one grouping field.

The grouping fields specify the groups into which output rows are to be placed. Summary values are calculated for each reporting field according to the aggregate function(s) assigned to that field. If there is more than one grouping field, the subtotal information is calculated for every group on every level.

Let's consider the following example:

1 - Grouping fields; 2 - Reporting field; 3 - Aggregate functions.

This sample will produce a report like:

 1 - Grouping values

 2 - Summary values

 3 - Subtotals

 4 - Grand total

 Detailed Report

The number of records in the detailed report corresponds to the number of records in the input data source.

The grand totals can still be calculated if needed. A grouping field in this case plays the role of a sorting field. Please refer to the Sorting editor for advanced sorting information.

1 - Sorting field; 2 - Reporting field; 3 - Aggregate functions.

The resulting report would look like:

 1 - Sorting values

 2 - Details

 3 - Grand total 

 Summary with details Report

The summary with details report can be viewed as a summary report where the innermost (rightmost) group is expanded to show all the contained detailed records.

1 - Grouping fields; 2 - Reporting field; 3 - Aggregate functions.

The resulting report would look like:

 

 1 - Grouping values

 2 - Details

 3 - Subtotals

 4 - Grand total
