Having trouble here with reporting tools. I would like my text at the top which Later I want to add a header. the issue is #1 my table looks great but I do not want 2 groups how it is shown.#2 the text is showing up above each group. I just want it at the top.

I would like to not have the tables break apart into 4 sections.

 

Thanks,

Jon

Hi @Jon_Taylor ,

 

For question #1, is this what you want your output to look like?

So the issue was in your table tools. For the first table tool, you were grouping on COB Date, which will give you a different reporting snippet based on the values on that field

The same goes for the other table tool, you were grouping on some fields but you should not group on anything.

 

Then an extra tip is that you can place the title text on top of the table without using the Layout tool. You can place it on top of an existing reporting snippet as shown below

Let me know if that worked for you or you have any questions.

If you ungroup, then you will get the table in the format you like.

Awesome, I thought it was the grouping configuration and should have tried it with no selections. *There should add a no groups audio button as it was somewhat unclear you could run with no selections. 

 

your suggestions solved my issues, Thanks
