Combining multiple groups into few groups
Hi Guys, I wanted to combine data and group these 12 categories into 4 categories. How can i group together data, so that my report shows only 4 category colors instead of 12

- Create another field or lookup field (depending on your set up and relationships)
Those new categories will basically sub-group things out. Then use those for your report.
Can you describe your relationships and current set up a little more? - Thanks matthew,
In this i have investment for each category and i want to combine my investment in 4 parts Very Important, Important ,Normal,can be Delayed. For that i wanted to join investment of each above category and wanted to group them. If possible can you please elaborate on how can i do that.. Maybe a formula or something.. - Create a formula-text field and use a case formula to 'categorize' your importance.
Call the field [Importance]

use this formula structure (some of the names or fields may need to change based on your naming)
