The Columns page for a report is where you specify the data fields to be shown in the report, and in what order.
Select and Re-order Data Columns
Available Data Fields are listed on the left. Using the arrow controls, select fields there and move them to the Selected Data Fields list on the right.To save scrolling through a long list of fields, you can type any part of a field name in the Filter text box. The Filter text box is a predictive search that limits the list to matching fields.
Move selected data fields
- Click » or « to move selected items to the right or left.
- Click »» or «« to move all items right or left.
Change a selected field position
- Click Top, Bottom, Up, or Down to change the position of a selected field in the Selected Data Fields box.
- The Selected Data Fields box order is the order in which columns will appear in the report.
> Note: Since the system can't know if the profile and event custom data are the same across all accounts, you must be sure that these fields contain the data intended.
Example 1
- Report Data is this account only.
- Custom Profile Data fields show "Office" (instead of "Custom Profile Data #01").
- Custom Profile Data fields show "Region" (instead of "Custom Profile Data #02").
- Custom Event Data fields show "Event Type" (instead of "Custom Event Data #01").
- Custom Event Data fields show "Client" (instead of "Custom Event Data #02").
Example 2
- Report Data is Current Account and all sub-accounts.
- Regardless of how the custom data fields are set up in the current account, the list of Custom Profile Data fields shows "Custom Profile Data #01", "Custom Profile Data #02", etc.
- The list of Custom Event Data fields shows "Custom Event Data #01", "Custom Event Data #02", etc.
Sort Order
You can specify up to four fields on which to sort report data in ascending or descending order in this area. The first field takes precedence over those that follow it.
Pick the field to sort on. Choose:
- Asc (A->Z) to specify ascending order.
- Desc (Z<-A) to specify descending order.
