Need Grand Totals in cross tab.

Question

Hi All,
I have requirement in Crystal using Cross Tab.
I need to show cummulative sum (Running Totals) for my Measure value.
and at TOTAL i have to show the sum of all those above values..
like...........
IMy data in general is like as below...
IND US
Jan 10 20
Feb 15 10
Mar 15 15
Total 40 45
when I used Running total field for my measure..it would be...
Jan 10 20
Feb 25 30
Mar 40 45
Total 40 45
But, In the second case I need totals as 75 95
i.e, I have to sum of running total feild.
My out put would be as below.
*Jan 10 20*
*Feb 25 30*
*Mar 40 45*
*Total 70 95*
I was able to get Cumulative sum for measure, but am not able to get Total.
Please help to find it out....its very imp for me now
Thanks in advance.

Let's try looking at it another way.  A runnnig total using the SUM function is essentially adding a numerical value for mulitple rows:
R1 - 5
R2 - 5
R3 - 6
Now if I insert a running total for each detail line, that would calculate the following:
R1 - 5  RunT = 5
R2 - 5  RunT = 10
R3 - 6  RunT = 16
Now I am going to assume that you are grouping your data and resetting your running your total for each group value:
Group 1 - A
R1 - 5  RunT = 5
R2 - 5  RunT = 10
R3 - 6  RunT = 16
Group 1 - B
R1 - 10  RunT = 10
R2 - 10  RunT = 20
R3 - 15  RunT = 35
Group 1 - C
R1 - 8  RunT = 8
R2 - 16  RunT = 24
R3 - 10  RunT = 34
And what your user is asking for is a running total for all rows of all groups:
G1-A  16  RunT = 16
G1-B  35  RunT = 51
G1-C  34  RunT = 85
Instead of trying to sum the individual group running totals, consider creating a separate running total that sums the individual row values without resetting the running total at the group level:
G1A R1 - 5  RunT = 5
G1A R2 - 5  RunT = 10
G1A R3 - 6  RunT = 16
G1B R1 - 10  RunT = 26
G1B R2 - 10  RunT = 36
G1B R3 - 15  RunT = 51
G1C R1 - 8  RunT = 59
G1C R2 - 16  RunT = 75
G1C R3 - 10  RunT = 85
This is essentially the same thing as saying (ABC) + (DEF) + (GHI) which is simply employing the transitive nature of addition.

Who expects if all you care about is the result after processing all the groups, however, it would be easier to just say sum(value)...
