pls try not tested : def dashboard_admin(): query = (db.payslip.state == 'Confirmed') sum = db.payslip.gross.sum() sum_result = db(query).select(sum).first()[sum] return locals() #return dict(sum_result = sum_result) # try if return locals() not work
this should try in python console not in web2py controller >>> query = (db.payslip.state == 'Confirmed') >>> sum = db.payslip.gross.sum() >>> print db(query).select(sum).first()[sum] best regards, stifan -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
