Hi Mohamed,

Have you tried building this out using a summary report yet? Summary reports do allow you to pick how your data is grouped and could be built to show you a summary of data based on that grouping. For example:

Store       Rep       # of Sales
Store 1    Rep 1    2
Store 1    Rep 1    3
Store 2    Rep 1    2
Store 1    Rep 2    1

Could be come:

Store        Rep      # of Sales
Store 1   Rep 1     5
               Rep 2     1
Store 2   Rep 1      2

You would just want to set the summary report to work off of the fields you want to report against. I hope that suggestion is helpful.
