Sum() function wont work because of group by, what to do?

[Sl1ver]

Look at the first select , you will see the sum function
and just a little down just after 'from' you will see the other calculation that form part of that.
This query return 11 results from the db
Take receivedqty for instance got all different qty's but when i do the sum function all i get duplicate of the data in a new column named TotalLineItems.
And the count function just returns 1 for each record, it should be 11
