CUMULATIVE field {field.qualifiers}
where
The CUMULATIVE field qualifier keyword is placed before the field name to which it applies and causes the query processor to report the cumulative value of the field. A total line is also produced. Used with breakpoints, the CUMULATIVE keyword will also report the total value of the field at each breakpoint.
The CUMULATIVE keyword operates only on numeric data. Non-numeric values are ignored.
Example
The command
LIST INVOICES TOTAL VALUE CUMULATIVE VALUE CUSTOMER.NAME WITH NO AMT.PAID
would produce a display such as that below in which the total value of the VALUE field is included at the end of the report.
