Sorting your Report
- You can sort your report by clicking the plus button next to Sorting, which will open a dropdown showing the available columns to sort by.
- You can apply sorting using multiple columns, and the sorting hierarchy will follow the order in which the columns are added.
- Each column can also be sorted in either ascending or descending order.
Grouping your Report
- Grouping in data analysis allows you to organize data into categories or segments based on shared values, enabling easier summarization and comparison.
The process is similar to sorting:

Click the plus button next to Grouping to open a dropdown menu showing the list of columns you can use to group your data.
Other Options
- Total Row at the End displays a total value at the bottom of each non-text column in the report.

- Freeze First X Columns keeps the first few columns fixed in place, ensuring they remain visible as you scroll across a wide report.
