Hi, I am building a drupal site but the the project scope needs some reporting on the data per individual user data. Would anyone be interested in developing a reporting module?
Thanks

What exactly does per
What exactly does
means?
I assume you have tried Views module and it cannot fit your needs?
I haven't gotten to actually
I haven't gotten to actually developing the site. But what I need to accomplish is for each organization be able to compare data at the end of time period for attendance of different programs but would like a calculated percentages and totals for attendance for each program of types of participants and be able to compare that on a per week basis as well as totals once the programs (activities) are complete. So for instance, Organization A logs in and takes a look at the overall program attendance for basketball programs and can compare that to badminton attendance. Not sure if I'm really clear on this. I know I can use Views to get the data from each but can I produce percentages and totals with that data in views?
Thanks. Feel free to email me at chris dot mccreery at gmail dot com
You could investigate Views
You could investigate Views Calc and perhaps Views Union and View of Views. Also of interest to you could be CCK computed field.
That aside, I have used in the past the View footer to run a direct database query to get the required sum for the displayed nodes(records) even though it did mean running probably the same query for the 2nd time.
I cannot help with module developing - it is something I'd like to achieve but I don't currently have the skills to do it.
If you do get to develop a module for such reporting please do share as it would be of great interest to me.
