Help - Query hasn't grouped properly
This happened because you included the 'AllocatedQuantity' in your group by. It looks like all of the other rows had a quantity of 800 so it grouped all of those together and grouped the one with 700 by itself.
To fix this, just go into the step where you grouped the columns and remove the 'Allocated Quantity' from the grouping!

Syk thank you for the support on this. This worked as you probably expected.
Would you be able to explain why this was the problem. Im not sure i understand why this caused the above issue?
Thank you
You want to group on the fields that you're not going to aggregate.
For example:Category Product Sales A Toy 10 A Shirt 20 A Shirt 15 If I want to find out how much I've sold of each Category and Product I'd group those fields and aggregate (sum) the Sales column which would give me this.
Category Product Sales A Toy 10 A Shirt 35 The grouping finds distinct combinations to perform your aggregation. That's why you had the issue, because you were including the Sales column in your grouping (which in this example, would be the exact same as the first table).
Hi Syk ,
Thank you for the explanation, it makes sense as to why it wasnt working now.
I appreciate your help 🙂
