How to add total row in Birt?
I have a data set that display the Name and the value and sorted by Name.
How can I add row for sum on the birt report? Something like this.
I tried to do this by grouping the Name column but the output shows like this.

You may try doing GROUP BY with ROLLUP:
GROUP BY
ROLLUP
WITH cte AS (
SELECT Name AS OrigName, SUM(Val) AS Val,
ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY NAME ORDER BY SUM(Val) DESC) rn
FROM yourTable
GROUP BY ROLLUP(Name, Val)
)
SELECT
CASE WHEN rn=1 AND OrigName IS NOT NULL THEN 'Total'
WHEN OrigName IS NULL THEN 'Grand Total'
ELSE OrigName END AS NAME,
Val
FROM cte
ORDER BY
OrigName, Val;

While Tim's answer is technically correct, you do not have to create such data in SQL, especially, it's not going to be pretty during formatting (you will have a lot of if (name == "Total" || name == "Grand Total") etc.
if (name == "Total" || name == "Grand Total")
BIRT tables have things called groups. You can say that you are grouping by name, and every group can have it's header and/or footer. You choose footer and set total in there.
