How do I limit the number of Project Status Reports to the latest per project in PMO Dashboard

In the PMO Dashboard we have below 2 reports that shows the total number of Project Status Reports generated "this month" and "last month"

If a project generates more than one Status Report in a month the counter in above reports will increasing correspondingly.

 

I have a requirement to only show the latest Status Report per project (if any is available) both in the report donut and in the list view. So basically one Status Report per project

Hi @s_renjarnbo ,

 

Create a Database View that joins:

Project table

Status Report table

 

Create a report on your new Database View.

Group by → Project (so you only get one line per project).

Aggregation → MAX(Created On) (so it picks the latest report for each project).

Thanks for the initial help Pavani but I am not used to work with database views.

 

I have created below database view (test):

It does return a "concatenated" list of status reports and related project

 

BUT

when I created the report it is not possible to aggregate max on created on. The field is not there (and neither is the status report date):

What could be wrong ?
