Problem with Sum()

Hello, I have problem with aggregation methods in RS 2005. I have a query thar returns data set: Department, Storage, Article, Invoice, Quantity, Value, ValueX
3,1,’Art A’,’Inv 1′,2,30,5
3,1,’Art B’,’Inv 1′,4,40,7 3,1,’Art A’,’Inv 2′,1,15,5
3,1,’Art B’,’Inv 2′,2,20,7 3,2,’Art A’,’Inv 3′,1,18,3
3,2,’Art B’,’Inv 3′,2,16,4 ValueX – this is value returned by UDF. It is unique for every "Article & Storage group". In RS my report looks like this: (grpDepartment) Department, Sum(Quantity), Sum(Value), Sum(ValueX, scope?)
(grpStorage) +Storage, Sum(Quantity), Sum(Value), Sum(ValueX, scope?)
(grpArticle) ++Article, Sum(Quantity), Sum(Value), ValueX
(detInvoice) +++Invoice, Quantity, Value
And the data looks like this: (grpDepartment) 3, 12, 139, 31(24+7) <- should be 19(12+7)
(grpStorage) 1, 9, 105, 24(5+5+7+7) <- should be 12(5+7)
(grpArticle) ”Art A”, 3, 45, 5
(detInvoice) ”Inv 1”, 2, 30
(detInvoice) ”Inv 2”, 1, 15
(grpArticle) ”Art B”, 6, 60, 7
(detInvoice) ”Inv 1”, 4, 40
(detInvoice) ”Inv 2”, 2, 20
(grpStorage) 2, 3, 34, 7(3+4) <- ok only because there is 1 detail row for each Article
(grpArticle) ”Art A”, 1, 18, 3
(detInvoice) ”Inv 3”, 1, 18
(grpArticle) ”Art B”, 2, 16, 4
(detInvoice) ”Inv 3”, 2, 16 The Sum() error is because I sum ValueX from details, and I should sum it from "grpArticle". Unfortunately I cannot. I’ve tried to use Sum(ValueX,"grpArticle") but I can use it only in "details" and "grpArticles". In "upper" groups ("grpStorage" and "grpDepartment") it generates error. Any help in here ? 😐 Maciej
