Creating reports and dashboards | Stimulsoft community forum

Hello,

I am trying to create a bar chart (clustered columns) but I'm struggling to aggregate data per category.
I have a set of values per market:

MARKET COST
-----------------------
NE 200
NW 100
NW 150
SW 100
SW 300
SW 100

I' trying to find a way to display one bar per market with sum of cost per market, such as:

MARKET COST
-----------------------
NE 200
NW 250
SW 500

Argument Data Column is {Projects.Market}
Value Data Column is {Projects.Cost}

What should I indicate as Argument? I have tried many things but all my tests end up in error or do not change anything.

Hello,

Please add the datasource of type "Data from other Data Source":
In the DataSource tab select "Projects" datasource.
In the Group tab add group, in the Column combobox select "Projects.Market".
In the Results tab add: column "Cost", AggregateFunction "Sum".
Then use this datasource in your chart.

The sample report in attachment.

Thank you.

Thank you, I got it work, but I have noticed that if you keep the field as created (in my case, "Cost.Sum"), it does not work. It works however if the dot is removed (e.g. with "CostSum"), not sure if this is a bug but I thought you should know.
