Report To View Item Sales By Geography

Question

Hello All -
I would like to see a report that shows how well our products sell by U.S. State.   Also, rather than see a list of individual items, I would like to see the cumulative totals of those items that have the same first four digits in the item number.  Our item numbers are 9 digits in length - so for all items that share the same first 4 digits, I would like to know what the cumulative sales are by state. 
Help?!
Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike ,
Start with Something like this
Select SubString(Itemcode,0,5) as ItemCode,
Sum (case when CRD1.State = 'CA' then  Linetotal else 0 End )as CA ,
Sum (case when CRD1.State = 'IL' then  Linetotal else 0 End )as IL
from  INV1 inner Join OINV on OINV.DocEntry= INV1.DocEntry
inner Join OCRD on OCRD.CardCode= OINV.CardCode
inner Join CRD1 on OCRD.CardCode = OCRD.CardCode
Where CRD1.AdresType='B' and OINV.DocType='I'
Group by SubString(Itemcode,0,5)
Start with one or two state to start and then extend upto 50 ...Basically you have to test whether result are coming as expected or Not
Hope this is the start ..
Thank you
