Sorting in Flow.BI Reports

Sorting records in reports can be configured to happen during design time (static) or at runtime (dynamic).

Static Sorting in Flow.BI Reports

You can set up static sorting in a report by defining a list of expressions for a specific data band in the Properties window.

Data Band Sorting

Static sorting allows you to define a specific order for records during the report design process.

User-Initiated Sorting

Dynamic sorting allows report users to choose the sorting order by clicking on column headers.

Dynamic Sorting in Flow.BI Reports

Enabling sorting for a data band or chart lets users interact with the report to sort data as needed.

How are reports sorted?

Sorting records in reports can be done in two ways: during report design (static) or by users at runtime (dynamic).

Study Notes

Sorting Records in Flow.BI Reports

  • ORDER BY in SQL statements has no effect on sorting records in reports.
  • Dashboards provide a sort menu for end-users.
  • Data transformations allow sorting during report design.
  • Sorting is available for both reports and dashboards.
  • Flow.BI Reports offers several options for sorting, statically during report design and dynamically at runtime.

Static Sorting (Data Band Sorting)

  • Select the data band needing sorting.
  • In the Properties window, set the Sort property to a comma-separated list of expressions.

Dynamic Sorting (User-Initiated Sorting)

  • Enable sorting for data bands or chart components.
  • End-users click column headers to sort ascending/descending.

Additional Considerations

  • Multiple sorting levels are possible. (Specify multiple levels for complex scenarios).
  • Custom sorting through custom functions or data transformations is allowed.
  • Performance is optimized by considering data source queries and report design (to minimize sorting time for large datasets).
