How to calculate this value...???

I've got invoices being stored in temporary tables prior to actually being created in our real invoices table. I have fields called InvoiceCreated, InvoiceDeclined, InvoiceOnHold. Each has a value of 1 or 0 effectively marking the status. No record would have a 1 for more than 1 of these fields.

All of that is working great. What I'd like to do now, though, is be able to figure a total amount for the declined orders. So I just need a total of all GrandTotal fields where InvoiceDeclined = 1. I could do it in a heart beat with SQL in a web app but I can't figure it out within FileMaker. I'd like to display "We've declined worth of orders." on my layout.

Any information on this would be greatly appreciated. thanks!

You can create a field that is a Summary field and it provides you with a Total of the Declined field.

That should do it!

The InvoiceDeclined field is currently just used as a boolean.

You can have an additional field that is a calculation of Case ( InvoiceDeclined; Amt) and then use a summary filed to total that.
