Why is Report Designer only able to calculate the Tax 1 amount per copy?

Symptom

• Report Designer is only able to calculate the Tax 1 amount per copy. If more than one copy of a title is item ordered, Business Objects is not able to recognize that there are more than one copy, because all of the data is the same (Invoice Number, Invoice Item Number, Order Number, Fund Code, Etc.)

Resolution

1. Add the new Copy Number object (installed with the latest release of Report Designer) to the report, this will ensure that every copy is recognized as a unique item.   
2. Essentially, you need to make the report specific enough so that  all items/copies have their own line.
