Step 6: Build the FinalQuery
1.
Mouse over the
Query Explorer
tab and click on the
FinalQuery
query to access the
data items.
NOTE
Because all three queries have the same query item names in the same order, we
did not have to modify
Union
properties and project the data item names.
2.
Ctrl-click
Range
and
Count
data items and drag them into the
Data Items
area of the
query design pane.
3.
From the
Data Items
pane, select the
Range
data item and change the
Aggregate Func-
tion
property to
None
.
4.
Select the
Count
data item and change the
Aggregate Function
property to
To t a l
.
We want to add up all the records so that the end result will have only three records.
These records will represent the total number of orders that closed within the three spec-
ified ranges.
