Using groups you can improve the readability of your report even more. Groups are structural intermediates that make it easier to find data in a report. You can add as many groups to your report as you like (normally, however, you will not want to use more than 3-5 groups) by dragging it from the data field list and dropping into the group view.
The order of groups is important since groups are nested. You can re-arrange the order by drag and drop, as well (not in the browser version - click to highlight the group and use the up/down arrows at the upper right). To modify the sorting order of a group by name, use the sort button next to the delete button. The buttons image changes according to the sort type you use:
![]() | sort up |
---|---|
![]() | sort down |
![]() | sort original (keep the order as on the database) |
