Aeroo has got a funtion called sum_field that sum all the value for a field in yuor class.

This is an example that sum all amount_total in sale order

sum_field(o, 'amount_total')

Author

Author

i don't get an error but it doesn't print anything. I want to sum amount total of all the invoices in my report like it does in invoice tree in openerp. Please help

Author

can you help in writing a function in report.py??

evon_dun: listen to me. The sum_field function work fine in openerp aeroo report. I use it everywhere and i haven't problem. If the function doesn't work you are doing something wrong. Post you code and we can halp you. If you search only help without explain what are you doing is impossible for use help you.

[[ sum_field(invoice,'amount_total') ]]

But you are using rml not aeroo report!!!

Author

kindly guide me the complete way to add such a field either through programming or through openoffice. In openoffice either we add field from field builder or we can use rml.

My answer is in relation with aeroo reports. Rml is another report engine. Sorry but my answer is incorrect in your case.

France please show that this solution for Aeroo in the main answer and thx it helped me :)

Hi evon,

Above suggested answer is right. It uses report_aeroo functionality if you want to achieve it with base_report_designer using sxw & report.py file then you need to follow below steps.

Define a global variable & do the calculation for sum in it in report.py file. Then at the end of the report in .sxw file call a function and return that global variable. This is how you can have sum amount in your report at the end. For more in detail you can refer Location Content report of Stock.

Here are some examples,

For version 6.0

For version 7.0

Hope this solve your problem.

Thanks.

Probably you are right but that example is too complicated, any other example?? However, i have been trying to install aeroo on my system for windows which at last gets stuck on Genshi. I don't understand how to get out of this since i have python 3.2 and it is failed for 3.2 on windows. Any idea!

Oh come on evon! It is very easy,I am sure you can do it. I already gave you simplest example. If you know how to call a method from sxw then it is very simple you don't even need any params while calling the method for total. You just need to write [[ your_method() ]] in rml or sxw at the end.That's it. I prefer you just to try it. If you are stuck in between, we members are here & ready to help :)

have you checked properly there are more methods related to that report file in stock.py too

I have checked RML file price_total() is called to do total. Same as you need to define method in rml file & in report.py file and return the global variable in which you have done calculation.
