    Dear Vielka Colon

    you didn't need to make a calculated field to calculate the sum of the prices there is already filed ready made you just only drag it and drop in the footer of the invoice

    but if you want to make another one you can go to https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/950780

    Abdallah,

    When I clicked your link I went to the article numbered 857086, but it was about

    "Error message when you try to log on to Microsoft Dynamics GP or open a window or a report in Microsoft Dynamics GP: "You don't have security privileges to this window. Contact your system administrator for assistance" "

    I don't think this will help us with a calculated field. You probably had a different KB in mind; do you recall its number?

    Kind regards,

    Leslie

    Hello!

    One thing that I would like to point out about the Article that Abdallah had mentioned is that the Report Writer KB articles should be used as a guide. This one in particular is for Bank Rec and Payroll however, it does explain how to create a Calculated field in report writer. You just need to know the information you are looking for.

    Hi,

    If you drag the data field into the footer, you'll need to change the Display Type to 'Sum' because I think the default is 'Last Occurrence'.

    Kind regards,

    Leslie
