Page History

Step 1 – Create a Group By View

1. In the Navigation Library, go to Data Management and then go to Views 
2. Click New View and call it Dashboard View; set Primary Object to Client; click Save
3. Click on the Fields tab and move the Client.Department and Client.Id fields into the panel on the right
4. Click on the Gear icon at the left of the Client.Id field to see the Linked field properties pop-up
   
   1. Set the Function field to Count
   2. 
   3. Click Save
5. The SQL text will look like this: select A0.COL_ID ID, Count(A0.COL_ID) CLIENTID, A0.COL_DEPARTMENT CLIENTDEPARTMENT from TBL_CLIENT A0 group by A0.COL_ID, A0.COL_DEPARTMENT
   
   1. We need to edit it because we aren't counting by both ID and Department, only Department; thus we removed all references to A0.COL_ID
   2. The result will be this: select Count(A0.COL_ID) CLIENTID, A0.COL_DEPARTMENT CLIENTDEPARTMENT from TBL_CLIENT A0 group by A0.COL_DEPARTMENT
   3. Click Save
6. Deploy your solution, log out and log back in.

1. In the Navigation Library, go to Business Rules and click on Rules 
2. Find the Dashboard View and click on the debug icon 
3. Click on Run 
4. This rule will run on dummy data added through the previously built pages and should look something like this
   
5. CLIENTID displays the count of the number of client id's associated with each of the 4 departments
