Hi guys, I am having trouble caclulating the total sales amount filtered by a distinct column DPBASE (a discount type reference.) My sales table and discount table are connected in a many to many relationship but would if make sense then to create a 1 to many relationship by creating a new table with only the distinct DPBASE's and filtering from there? As you can see my sales figures do not add up I am just looking for some clarity. Kind Regards
