How do I create a report that shows total quantity of items sold per category? Sales by $ shows up nicely, but sales by qty only appears by item - not by category.

categories are used to organize the list, they are not reportable transactions

sales by item is the best you can do

Hello there, oceanbeachesglass.

For now, we're unable to pull up a report that will show the total quantity of items sold per category.
