Using Sort Column Indicators to Control the Display of Information in Your Report


Interactive reports support the use of sort column indicators when you want to sort data in a report. You can sort a column in ascending and descending order, giving you control over the display of information in your report. The indicator that shows how a column has been adjusted by a previous action shows to the right of the column, as shown in the following image.

As shown above, the selected column is sorted in ascending order, where the values in the column are sorted from lowest to highest. If you click the arrow again, the column will be sorted in descending order, where the values are sorted from highest to lowest. If you click the arrow again, it will return to the default arrow that points in both directions, indicating that no sort has been applied.
