Columns can be sorted ascending or descending by the User when running a Report.  However, preset sorting can also be set so that a report can always sort on a particular column, but also then use another column as the next sort.

For example. you may want to sort a Report by ..............   (UPP 15 months of consumption data is an example)

User Sorting

• Click on the black downward arrow on the column you want to sort by
• Hover over Sort
• Click Ascending or Descending

You will now see a white arrow in either the upwards or downwards direction depending on what has been chosen.

• To change, click on the arrow on the Column Header you want to sort by and follow the above

Preset Sorting

If you are copying or creating a Report in Energy Intelligence, you can preset the sorting to sort by more than one column.

For example, Year then Month or by Channel and then Month

• Create the Report by adding in the Columns
  • Note, the Columns you want to sort by do not need to be in a specific order
• Click Report Formatting 
  • Table Sort

• Choose Column 1 from the dropdown
• Choose the Sort Order (Ascending or Descending)

• Choose Column 2 from the dropdown
• Choose the Sort Order (Ascending or Descending)

Note: each time you sort by another Column, you get the option to sort by more.  For example the above has been sorted by 2 columns, but there is the option for a third.

• Click on the X to save the settings

The Report is now ordered by the first and second choice, in the above example by Year and then Month.
