Groups
Hi Experts,
Fairly new to RS and am trying to create a freight tracking report. My issue is (i believe) around groups.
For each consignment (shipment), there is one of each of the following dates:
- Consignment Date Added
- Goods Ready Date
- Manifest Date
- Delivery Date (this may not be populated)
There are multiple 'Event' dates, provided by the transport provider systems in varying granularity e.g. some will provide a pick-up event, in-depot event, delivery event, linehaul event etc. Some will provide the Delivery event only.
My specification requires the Shipment number, and all single dates (as described above) to be displayed in table group- with a drill-down to the multiple carrier events. Note, the delivery date will be displayed twice, once in the header and once in the
detail.
To accomodate this, i extract the delivery date twice in my query - with null's in the delivery column where it is not a delivery date:
, CASE R095_DELIVERY_EVENT
WHEN 1 THEN R275_EVENT_DATE_TIME
ELSE null
END AS DeliveryDate
Therefore if include Delivery Date in the Group it returns two shipment records for each shipment that has two values in the Delivery Event field i.e. Null and Date.
I would think this achievable without going to a subreport...? Any assistance greatly appreciated.

Hi Clay,
Besides subreport, you could also utilize drill-down feature to achieve this similar requirement, this is the same issue,
