Summarizing Data in a Section
When you aggregate data in a Section, you can compute summaries on a group-by-group basis and/or on a global basis (e.g., grand total).
To create a summary based on a particular grouping level, follow the steps below:
For a categorical field, select 'Default'. For a Date field, select a Date level such as 'Year' or 'Month'.
1. Right-click on the Text element displaying the field that you want to summarize.
2. From the context menu, select 'Text Field' > 'Summarize', and choose the desired aggregation method (e.g., 'Average', 'Max', etc.)

This defines the field as a summary field and adds it to the summary area of the Binding panel. Because the field resides in the detail row, it only summarizes a single detail value. To summarize a particular group, or the entire table, proceed to the next steps.
To add a grouping region, see Displaying the Grouping Field in a Group Region.
3. To summarize a particular group, Ctrl-drag (or copy and paste) the summary field to the corresponding grouping header or footer region.

If the desired footer region is not visible, open the 'Section Properties' dialog box, and enable the footer visibility. See Section Properties for more information.
See Modifying Summary Properties to make further adjustments to the summarization process.
