I want to have sum of InputAmountToCredit based on status . status can vary to different statuses and ID is common field for both the events what is best way to sum the amount with the same status for specified timeframe

Thanks for all the support.

index = pcf_logs cf_org_name = creorg OR cf_org_name = SvcITDnFAppsOrg cf_app_name=VerifyReviewConsumerService host="*" | eval _raw = msg | rex "InputAmountToCredit\"\:\"(?<PayloadAmount>[^\"]+)" | rex "Request\#\:\s*(?<ID1>\d+) with (?<Status>\w+.\w+)" | rex "CRERequestId\"\:\"(?<ID2>[^\"]+)" | eval ID=coalesce(ID1,ID2)|stats latest(Status) as Status values(PayloadAmount) as Amount by ID

I am using this to generate report I want but as per my understanding I should create a summary index by using 

| stats values(*) as * by ID

 and then by using stats result I should be able to do chart or another stats or whatever. Just because  

| stats values(*) as * by ID

 this gives me all the data related to ID and I can play with it the way I want after creating the index. Is my understanding is correct?

Yes, your understanding is correct.  Be aware, however, that the values() function may produce a multi-value field.  Some commands you might use after stats may not handle multi-value commands well (or at all) so additional massaging of the data may be necessary.

[richgalloway]

Assuming the fields are extracted already, you can use the stats command to group results by a shared field.

... | stats values(*) as * by ID
