Defining the data for a custom report
Repeated values, whether repeated horizontally or vertically, apply only if CMS finds
multiple values for the report fields. CMS finds multiple values if one of the following
conditions exists:
Your "where" statement specifies one or more ranges of values.
On the Define Input window, you entered y for Range/list for at least one variable.
Your "where" statement is general enough to select multiple rows.
One example of a general "where" statement for the dsplit table would be:
Select rows where: ROW_DATE = $datevar and ACD = $acd
Since no split values are specified, CMS will display, for a user-specified date, a value
for every split in the ACD.
If, based on your "where" statement and Define Input entries, CMS finds multiple values,
but you select Discrete , the report displays only the first value CMS finds for each report
field.
Note:
Select a Sort type
From the Row Search window, in the Sort type: field, enter x to select either ascending
or descending order for values of the database items. Ascending order means CMS
displays data from the lowest to the highest values. Descending order means CMS
displays data from the highest to the lowest values.
Continuing with the previous example, if the Order by database item is ROW_DATE and
you choose a descending order, the data will be listed as shown in the table below. For
dates and times, lowest values are those dates/times farthest in the past.

If you select Repeated horizontally, you cannot define any fields
directly to the right of a repeated field.
