Hi, I have a code like below

TABLE FILE LEADTIME
SUM
AVE.LEADTIME NOPRINT
BY REGN_I AS 'Region'
BY GRP_I AS 'Group'
BY LOWEST DIST_I AS 'District'
BY RPT_STR AS 'Store'
BY STR_N AS 'StoreName'
SUM
LEADTIME AS ''
COMPUTE FLG/I2 = IF LEADTIME GT 20 AND GF EQ 1 THEN 1 ELSE IF LEADTIME GT 48 AND GF EQ 0 THEN 1 ELSE 2; NOPRINT
BY REGN_I AS 'Region'
BY GRP_I AS 'Group'
BY LOWEST DIST_I AS 'District'
BY RPT_STR AS 'Store'
BY STR_N AS 'StoreName'
BY GF1 AS 'GFSC'
ACROSS HIGHEST WK_END_D NOPRINT
ACROSS HIGHEST WK_END_DA AS 'Week End Date'
COMPUTE AVERAGE/D10 = C1; AS '8 week AVG'
END

I need the average in descending.

Can anyone let me know how is this possible in the above code.

DO i need to hold and then calculate, help this out.

Thanks
Vinod

Vindo,

Have you tried doing what you asked in your last line?

Try it and work with it, you might surprise yourself what you find out.

You could try this (don't know if this works ok, but a similar thing does work for the CAR database):
TABLE FILE LEADTIME
SUM AVE.LEADTIME NOPRINT
BY TOTAL HIGHEST AVE.LEADTIME NOPRINT
BY REGN_I AS 'Region'
BY GRP_I AS 'Group'
BY LOWEST DIST_I AS 'District'
BY RPT_STR AS 'Store'
BY STR_N AS 'StoreName'
SUM LEADTIME AS ''
COMPUTE FLG/I2 = IF LEADTIME GT 20 AND GF EQ 1 THEN 1
            ELSE IF LEADTIME GT 48 AND GF EQ 0 THEN 1 ELSE 2; NOPRINT
BY TOTAL HIGHEST AVE.LEADTIME NOPRINT
BY REGN_I AS 'Region'
BY GRP_I AS 'Group'
BY LOWEST DIST_I AS 'District'
BY RPT_STR AS 'Store'
BY STR_N AS 'StoreName'
BY GF1 AS 'GFSC'
ACROSS HIGHEST WK_END_D NOPRINT
ACROSS HIGHEST WK_END_DA AS 'Week End Date'
COMPUTE AVERAGE/D10 = C1; AS '8 week AVG'
END

The trick is to use the BY TOTAL phrase. This will do the sorting of the report after everything has been calculated and the internal matrix has been created. This will of course resort the entire report, possibly leading to a report layout that you did not anticipate.

Hope this helps ...
