Duplicate Data within [Jet Reports] G/L Trial Balance

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 3,510

Hi:

I'm getting duplicate data in a Jet Reports trial balance, as shown in the first screenshot above. Instead of giving me three accurate amounts in column K, the report is displaying the first amount of the account number from column C three times.

So, it's obviously not matching the data in General Ledger Entries of Business Central. The other two screenshots show the Jet NL Functions that I'm using for column C and K respectively.

Now, it is true that column K is to only reference Department Code 700 as shown in the final screenshot. And, it is true that account number 10037 is posted to three times as shown in my first screenshot.

But, I want for column K to show that amount only once and for the row that it applies to based on the Department Code for that row.

Does anyone have any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong? Thanks!

Thanks!

John

    Try with an NL Sum in column K.

    Hi Alfredo:

    Thank you, for the suggestion!

    Unfortunately, this yielded the same results.

    I wonder how you use the filter on the Department code.

    Is the filter on Department code hardcoded in the NL sum in column K? If yes you will get duplicates.

    If you need one row for each G/L and the sum of entries by department ( I assume it's a dimension) you need another NL row to show the different department codes for each entry. Then you can use NL sum with two dynamic filters: The first in column C for the G/L and the second maybe in column G for the department.

    Then you can get the value in columns K as a sum by G/L and by Department

    Hi All:

    The solution is to use Jet's "NF" function to create a key (or "anchor" as I call it), create hidden columns based on Natural segment, Department Dimension, and Amount, and use "If, Then" statements for the departmental amount columns.

    Yes, your problem here was you were expanding the same set of rows within the same set of rows.

    Hi John,

    I have entirely different issue, I want jet to display the duplicates, data base - Dynamics 365. Jet seems to hide duplicates.

    If I code =NL("Linkfield","Sales Line","Document No.")

    I will get one Document No with one part, when same Document no will have multiple part numbers.

    Can you help me out
