Grouping In Tabular Report By Html Field

[colombiaactiva]

Hi Caspio Forum!

 

let me make my problem more simple (my reality involves much more fields)

 

I have a table with 2 fields: first name and last name.

 

I do a tabular report.

 

I want to do data grouping on 1 line which says first name + last name.

 

right now i have to do the grouping on each fields independently, which give me 2 lines for grouping. 

I want only one (as mentioned, in my case i need to do that with 8 fields)

 

any idea how to do that?

 

I create a HTML virtual field show first name + last name.

but can't group this one.

 

Thanks a lot!

Olivier

Hi Olivier,

 

As far as I know, now it is impossible. You can create one more field and add the Concatenate of all fields ti this field every time, when one of fields is changed, if it works for you.

 

There is the idea in the Ideabox, add possibility to have a calculated field in a View. If this possibility will be added, you can group by the calculated filed that concatenate your fields.

 

You can vote for the idea, and probably, this feature will be added faster.
