>Hi everybody,

>I'd like to show distribution of accounts based on queue names or based on clients or based on product line or based on status. The distribution is going to be by department. Right now all the accounts are for Outpatient department ("O"). When I'm using distribution by Queues, I start from queues and left join to Trans file. Queues table has departments in it. In other cases I decided to show only actual distribution.

I think with APPEND BLANK, followed by REPLACE, it is easier to conditionally set, or not set, a specific field.
