Distinct Field Name

Designates a base field to exclude duplicated summary calculation. When the base field has duplicated values, the row containing that duplicated values will be excluded from summary calculation.

If you set the distinct field it will calculate by comparing every corresponding field value and exclude the duplicated rows.

Example

Set Distinct Field Name to City

No Distinct Field Name

Calculate summation of Children for the rows with no duplicated city values (5 + 0 + 3 = 8)

Calculate summation of Children for all rows (5 + 2 + 5 + 0 + 2 + 3 + 4 = 21)
