Master data report on 0MATERIAL

Question

Hi Guys,
I am trying to create a report which is purely based on material master data IO ( 0MATERIAL).
There are several navigation attributes for 0MATERIAL. In Report i am using the following.
'Material Category'
'Assortment Grade'
'Active Flag'
Material Category will be in 'Rows' section of the Query Designer.
'Assortment Grade' and 'Active Flag' will be in 'Columns' section of the Query Designer.
There are only 4 types of assortment grades in BI. Eg: 1 ,2 ,3 ,4
There are only 2 values for Active Flag  IO ,  like 'Active' (A) or 'Inactive' (I). For ever Assortment Grade there will be either active material or inactive material status maintained in Active Flag.
So Report output should look like
++++++++++++Assort. Grade |--1|2|3|4--|
+++++++++++++Active Flag | Active | Inactive|| Active | Inactive|| Active | Inactive|| Active | Inactive|
CATEGORY1 +++++++++++++  2        |   1 
CATEGORY2  ++++++++++++   3       |    2
Active or Inactive columns should show the count of the materials which falls in to those categories. 
could any one please tell me how can i achive this.
Please note that i 've already marked this IO as info provider.
any ideas are welcomed here.
Thanks in advance,
POPS

Hi POPS,
Create a structure in the column.
Create a new selection in your column structure, In the new selection insert characteric Assortment grade.
In properties (calculate tab),calculate single value as 'COUNTER for all detailed values'.
Insert a new slection and in the selection choose characteristic Active flag and in calvulate tab , for field calculate single values as choose 'COUNTER for all detailed values '.
Now run the report and check.

Sunmit.
