Aggregation by Client for a Dynamic Timeframe

Question

Hello,
I am working on a report in BI Answers and having some problems to get the results for a dynamic time-frame.
My report is showing the amount of orders of each client. For the moment it is showing the amount of order for all the orders in the database. I am intending to create the possibility of giving me the same report, but by taking a time frame into account (a from to date feature).
My database looks like this:
Order_Data:
- Client_Name Char
- Order_Date Date
What I succeeded so far is to give me the amount of orders per client per day for a certain time period (by using a between filter and a between prompt), it looks like this:
01/01/08 Client A 5
Client B 7
Client C 6
02/01/08 Client A 1
Client C 2
But I want to have the result for each client for the whole time-frame, like this (the dates should be dynamically chosen):
From 01/01/08 To 05/03/08
Client A 123
Client B 654
Client C 61
Any help is highly appreciated

Hi, If you remove the date field in the report and keep only the filter, the system should automatically group by for the selected data range...Not sure whether that is what you are looking for..
