Issue/Introduction

When I created a user view with a specific filter:


 "01Data Set Name" EXCL  HSM.BACKTAPE./ ZAMN./ ZAMP./ ZATP./ ZA.MN/ ZA.MP/ ZA.TP/ ZA.DOSTGD./ ZA.SM????./ ZA.SMFDUMP./ ZA??.DR900SW./ ZA.HSM/ zaqj./ zadostg./ HSM.COPY./ DFHSM.COPY./ XSDFHSM.BACKTAPE./ XSDFHSM.COPY./ ZAW3.??????.????.L/ ZAW3.??????.????.U/ AND  "01Exp Date" >   TODAY
 
And I clicked on View and TOTALS (and I get one number), and then I created a Summary Object with the same filter as above, when I click on View and TOTALS I get a different number.  Why is that?  Why are the values different between each view?

Resolution

The differences seen are caused because the field used to get the data is displaying an average result instead of using the 'MB bytes' field value which processes on total data.
