groupseq(
groupseq(
LEVEL
)

The groupseq( function returns the sequence number within a summary level.

Parameters

This function has one parameter:

level – The summary level you are interested in.

Description

This function is similar to the seq() function, but returns the sequence number from the beginning of a summary level instead of from the beginning of the database. This function is only valid when Panorama is performing an operation on a database, like FormulaFill and FormulaFillAllFields. The result is really only valid for data records. When used with a summary record, it will return the value of the previous data record associated with the summary record.
