In App Studio GUI, I need to display an amount field over another amount field over another amount field across a dates such as:
9/8/2019 9/9/2019
Total Revenue X,XXX X,XXX
Gross Contrib X,XXX X,XXX
Gross Margin X,XXX X,XXX

I guess I am needing to use the FOR ROW and OVER c command within the App Studio GUI. Any thoughts?

You just need the OVER.


TABLE FILE CAR
SUM
CAR.BODY.DEALER_COST OVER
CAR.BODY.RETAIL_COST OVER
CAR.BODY.SALES
BY CAR.ORIGIN.COUNTRY
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOLEAD
ON TABLE SET ASNAMES ON
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT HTML
ON TABLE SET HTMLEMBEDIMG ON
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
INCLUDE = IBFS:/EDA/EDASERVE/_EDAHOME/ETC/warm.sty,
$
ENDSTYLE
END


Thank you for using Focal Point!

Chuck - I know how to do it in the code, but how do you do an OVER within the App Studio GUI?

Right click the field that you need to OVER, select Options then check : New Line (OVER)

MartinY - So I had already tried checking the New Line (OVER) option for the field but it's not working. It doesn't show in the preview of the report and it does not actually show in the output with the field over the other. Am I missing something here?

In preview I don't see that the two measures will be OVER each other but at run it does

IT does work well using 8201 or 8204, maybe an issue with 8206.

Try to execute the below. Does it render as expected ?
If not, should better ask TechSupport

TABLE FILE GGSALES
SUM
     GGSALES.SALES01.UNITS OVER
     GGSALES.SALES01.DOLLARS
BY  GGSALES.SALES01.REGION
ACROSS LOWEST GGSALES.SALES01.CITY
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOLEAD
ON TABLE SET ASNAMES ON
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT HTML
ON TABLE SET HTMLEMBEDIMG ON
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
     INCLUDE = IBFS:/EDA/EDASERVE/_EDAHOME/ETC/warm.sty,
$
ENDSTYLE
END

I was able to produce the GGSALES example provided by MartinY in the App Studio 8.2.06 GUI. One thing that might not be obvious, the OVER is accomplished by right-clicking the Dollar Sales field, click Options... and checkmarking Over. Doing it on the Unit Sales field doesn't do anything.

Sure it won't
The UNITS field is the first one in the SUM section so, it cannot be OVER anything
This is DOLLARS that is OVER UNITS

Thanks dbeagan and MartinY - That resolved the issue...clicking on the other amount field and checking OVER worked when I ran it.
