  • 1.  How to get a count of unique parent records in a relationship

    Posted 02-06-2023 12:36
    I have a relationship between my `Clients` (parent) and `Products` (child) tables. In a Summary report in the `Products` table, how can I display a total number of `Clients` records? I'm not having any luck adding a Summary field (distinct count using `Client Name` field in `Clients` table). 

    To summarize, I need to know how many clients are subscribing to products.

    Can you clarify your relationships?
    Do you in fact have a many to many relationship where one client has many Client Products Assignments but also one Product has Many Client Product Assignments?

    One Client record has many Product records

    Why not just make a report of Clients filtered by if they have Products (ie where the have child records).  Then the report will tell you how many clients there are.  It can be either a summary report or a table report.
