Creating report to replicate Excel Reports. User wants the report to exactly look like Excel Report.
Excel Report has Income row ACROSS YearMonths as following Aug-12 Sep-12 Oct-12 ... Income 999.99 999.99 999.99 .. .. In WF When I use I6YYMM it works fine in the same order as the excel report. I edited the field to make it look like the excel format.. but the order gets messed up see below
perhaps what is needed is smart date format which can display 3 Letter Month name with the two Digit Year.. The above I DEFINEd Month to 3 Letter Mon and concatenated with 2 position of the year. It looks same excel but ACROSS sorting is not matching..
Looked in the manuals and searched this site, did not come across this issue..
I thought I check with the Gurus here.
