Using sections, breaks, and sorts
Overview
This chapter describes how you can organize the information displayed in reports so that
reports are easy to read and navigate.
It provides information on the following:
•
using sections to group data on reports
• using breaks to group data in tables
• using sorts to organize sections and data on tables
Using sections to group data on reports
To make reports easy to navigate, you can divide the report into sections that group
related data together. The tables and charts in a section only display the data relevant to
the dimension on which the section is created. For example, if you create a section on the
[Year] dimension, the tables and charts in the section for “2003” will only display data for
the year 2003.
