Sample screenshot of Report Preview:
- The report should show the Sales based on Items, showing Quantity sold, Sales amount, Customer Category, and Customer Name.
Alternatively, you may also Remove the 'Customer' or the 'Customer/Project: Name (Grouped)' column, move Customer Category Column in the 2nd left-most column, then tick Group with Previous Column box. See screenshot:
- This will display a more summarized version of the report where it is first Grouped by Item then by Customer Category, showing the Quantity and Sales.
