Hi Shawn,

Ok, oh and sorry about the double email, my email program is doing
something funny today.
Right now I use the "region" Field to select one of the following
entries...
United States
Foreign
US-Florida
Every 4 months, I need to know the total $$ invoiced for Florida. Our
quarterly sales tax report requires this. We need to know the total sales
for the the region "US-Florida" Currently I would have to do a FIND for
"US-Florida" and then total up all the amounts that were invoiced during
those 4 months. Remember to determine sales, it is not based on dollars
collected, but is based on the total services/products purchased by your
customers. So it appears to me that "total dollars invoiced" would equal
"total sales" but you probably knew that already or maybe I need to take
my accounting class over.
...And remember for the others out there that "Region" can be anything
you want it to be. You can keep track of total $$ invoiced for oversees
accounts, maybe your local area, or whatever. You can determine your
sales for particular places you choose. This would also help in
allocating advertising costs.
So hopefully you can now see why this would be a time-saving/helpful
report. I'm surprised this wasn't requested by others previously.
There is a report for "Accounts by Region".
Would it be possible to add a field there?
Or maybe I'm pushing my luck :)
