Hello,

I am very new to FM. I am not sure if this is a scripting question or not. I apologize if this is posted in the wrong area.

I am trying to create a file to collect member charge ticket amounts and then create monthly statements.

I have set up 2 tables: Member and Transaction

My statements seem to work correctly. But I want to specify a Start Date (month) for the statement and have the records for that month to be the only ones included on the statement. I do not know how to do this.

Plus, I want to provide the Previous Balance (which would be the Total of the "TransactionMade" before the "Start_Date"). I do not know how to do this either.

I have included my file.

Thank you in advance,

Check out the attached file for an example of how to print statements for specified month.

Thank you! Thank you!

There is NO WAY I would have worked it out.

I understand the steps of the script, but I don't know to write anything yet. I've got lots to learn!

Only one more question about this file.

How do I create a Previous Balance?

I'm assuming a calculation field totaling the TransactionMade field for each the member before the Start_Date... but how do I do this?

Thank you

Glad to help! ;-)

There are a bunch of ways to deal with the previous balance issue. chose a relationship method. Check the attached file for an example.

Best!
