Answer 1

ex :
emp_doj :
01-jan-09
01-feb-09
01-mar-09
01-apr-09
01-may-09
01-jun-09
01-jul-09
01-aug-09
01-sep-09
01-oct-09
01-nov-09
01-dec-09
01-jan-10
01-feb-10....................
you need the output like this :
account no jan feb mar apr may jun jul aug sep oct nov sep dec jan feb mar
1 2 5 100 22 52 22 22 55 22 22 22 555 5 55 844
2 100 152 412 525 522 155
Just try to this way ,
column field --> for ex : emp_doj or otherwise u r matrix column date field
go to u r query :
select to_char(emp_doj,'Mon') as doj
*, emp_doj,........*from tablename
* two times u have select the matrix column field ,like above query emp_doj two time selected
You should give Alias Name --> to_char(emp_doj,'Mon') as doj
after that go to u r data model
Matrix column fields groups are should be this order
1) emp_doj( this should come first)
2) doj ( alias name u r given that field should come second )
after u compile run the report.
The report output will come like this
account no jan feb mar apr may jun jul aug sep oct nov sep dec jan feb mar
1 2 5 100 22 52 22 22 55 22 22 22 555 5 55 844
2 100 152 412 525 522 155
