One of my coworkers pointed this out to me...

He and several other employees used to run the Order Action Report in ACCPAC O/E quite often. He has tried to use the one in Adagio O/E, but here's what happens:

He selected the following fields (left to right):
Item#
Quantity
Order#
Cust ID

In detail mode, he gets all the detail, i.e. all four fields, line by line for every order. In summary mode, all the report lists is the left most field (Item#) with all other fields blank. If I move CustID to be the left most column, then all I get one Cust ID per line with all other columns being blank.

What ACCPAC does and what we would like to see the Adagio report do is to (in summary mode) give us the Item# and the total quantity on order.

We noticed that while the selection screen for this report looks very similar to the Sales Analysis selection screen, there is no 'summary by' option for each one of the fields. Is there something we're missing or is this the way the report works and if we want something different we would have to write our own? We're just thinking that the summary report in its current form is pretty much useless - at least to us.;-)

Cheers,

Andre
