[SOLVED] Showing latest record in IBI
Hi there,

Could anyone please tell me how to get webfocus to only show the latest record for a particular table?

Sample Data:
Account,Suffix,ID,Type,Amount1,Amount2,Date1,Date2,Months
000123,090,621,"Loan",'500','700','2020/04/30','2020/07/01',1
000123,090,621,"Loan",'600','700','2020/06/1','2020/07/01',1

I want the report to only show the following (highest Date1):
000123,090,621,"Loan",'600','700','2020/06/1','2020/07/01',1

I tried displaying LST.Date1 but it did not work.

In SQL I could do something like this:

SELECT *
FROM (
SELECT Account,Suffix,ID,Type,Amount1,Amount2,Date1,Date2,Months,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER ( PARTITION BY Account, Suffix, ID, Type ORDER BY Account DESC ) rn
FROM myTABLE
WHERE something
) q
WHERE rn=1

Thanks
Glen

BY HIGHEST 1 Date1 will limit the records to the one that has the record you're looking for.
