Deleting Aggregate Fields
When you delete an individual field, you remove it from the report definition even if it is in use in the report layout or used indirectly as part of the expression of a field that is in use in the report layout. This means that Report Builder automatically removes all instances of the field from the layout.
Follow these steps to delete an aggregate field:
- Choose Calculations
Aggregate Field. The Aggregate Fields dialog box appears.
- Select the aggregate field you want to delete.
- Choose the Delete button. If the field you are trying to delete is used in another aggregate field or in a calculated field calculation, Report Builder lists all calculated and aggregate fields that will be affected by the deletion.
Choose Cancel to retain the field or OK to delete it. If you choose OK, Report Builder removes the selected field from the report. If you choose to delete an aggregate field that is in use in another field’s calculation, Report Builder deletes both the selected aggregate field and all fields that contain it in their calculations.
- Choose OK to return to the report layout.
