>Thanks Jeff, I got the idea and tried it, but in client-server environment when I try to save the view it gives me "connectivity error" and asks one-by one for all other fields in the view to be included in GROUP BY condition. Didn't figure out why yet...

I found the easy workaround without touching the remote view definition. To the method, which requeries the view and calculates the sums I added after REQUERY()
INDEX on tn_tenantname TO _tn_tmp UNIQUE
Bingo!
