Here is the report in version 2011. I would like to have a column that can report % of change between the two years.<br />
<br />
I was also wondering how I would get the data to sort in descending order by the Qty Shipped field for the most recent year (in this case 2016)<br />

I have a cross-tab report that reports results of a quantity shipped and compares quarter over quarter (example: Q2 2015 to Q2 2016)
Is there a way to have the report take the value of each quarter and calculate the growth or decrease for each group and report as a percentage? 

I have attached my report.

Can a formula be added to a cross tab report to report a % of change of two values?

Crystal Reports is a business intelligence application from SAP SE. It is used to graphically design data connections and report layouts from a wide range of data sources including Excel spreadsheets, Oracle, SQL Server databases and Access databases, BusinessObjects Enterprise business views, and local file-system information. Report designers can place fields from these sources on the report design surface, and can also deploy them in custom formulas (using either BASIC or Crystal's own syntax), which are then placed on the design surface. Crystal Reports also supports subreports, graphing, and a limited amount of GIS functionality.
