Hi Gina,

A little explanation as to Andree's correct solution.
Your formula of
=PARENT(Week3)
is saying to look at the parent of that cell. Week3. If you look at the parent of that cell, you will see that it is blank.

=PARENT(this cell that the formula is in)
you would just leave out the cell reference.

I'm not able to "view by" a field that I have in my sheets - Quarters (Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4) - in my report. I think it is because I have used a formula to calculate the quarters in my sheets. Does anyone know a way to get a formula based field on the dropdown for view by in my report?
