Avoid summarizing on columns in query
In my query (query level, not at report level), it automatically summarizes some columns. Below is an example, where the last two columns should not be summarized, because then I can't make the appropriate relations with other tables.
How do I avoid this summarization at query level?
Solved! Go to Solution.

@vaerge Sorry I misled you. You taught me something. The sigma means it has a default summarization set for that field. If you don't want this, go to the Modeling tab and change Default Summarization from "Sum" to "Don't Summarize."

Hi @Anonymous
Thanks - but if that is the case, then why doesn't the first column have a sigma symbol as well, since it is same type as the last two; a number. Here is a different view of that same table, where you can see the data type of the first column...which has no sigma symbol in the other view.
