Using Report6i & Oracle8i

Problem
(Only concern columns Mentioned)

Tbl_AccountHeads
Col_AccountHeadName (pk)
Col_Balance (always show current balance)

Want to make “Trial Balance” out of it.
Simple display both columns.

But I want to give it exactly the same look as of accounting “Trial Balance”.

i.e. want to display
Positive values of Col_Bal in one column
and
Negative values of Col_Bal in other column

Example:-

(Current Report)
Account Head---------Balance
Cash-----------------5000
Sales----------------3000
Purchase-------------(-8000)

(Desire Report)
Account Head------------Debit Balance-----Credit Balance
Cash--------------------5000
Sales-------------------3000
Purchase----------------------------------------(-8000)
Total-------------------8000--------------------8000

Please advise how to do this.

hi, there..

I am not sure how your table structure or your report data model is... but I suppose something like there may work:

SELECT DECODE (SIGN (:p_amt), 1, :p_amt, 0) dr,
DECODE (SIGN (:p_amt), -1, -:p_amt, 0) cr
FROM DUAL

you can try above sql statement in TOAD

where you will subsitute :p_amt as your transaction amount.. either in your sql query or as an fucntion...

regards
Andy

Dear Andy
thanks for your help.
It worked as under:-

select col_a, decode(sign(col1),1,col1,0) positive_value, decode(sign(col1),-1,col1,0) negative_value from your_table;

In this case suppose i want the trial balance in T-shape what i have to do for that.

Trial Balance should look like this
Name Dr. Balance Name Cr. Balance
Ushman Khan 10000.00 Yunush Khan 10200.00
Mohhamad 200.00
Total 10200.00 10200.00

What i have to do for getting this type of report.
