Columns Heading: How to use their action menu



Column Heading Menu 

Clicking on any column heading exposes a column heading menu.

 

Options include:
Sort Ascending           icon sorts the report by the column in ascending order.
Sort Descending        icon sorts the report by the column in descending order.
Hide Column              hides the column. Not all columns can be hidden. If a column cannot be hidden, there will be no Hide Column icon.
Break Column            creates a break group on the column. This pulls the column out of the report as a master record.

Column Information displays help text about the column, if available.
Text Area is used to enter case insensitive search criteria (no need for wild cards). Entering a value reduces the list of values at the bottom of the  menu. You can then select a value from the bottom and the selected value will be created as a filter using '=' (for example, column = 'ABC'). Alternatively, you can click the Flashlight icon and enter a value to be created as a filter with the 'LIKE' modifier (for example, column LIKE  '%ABC%').
List of Unique Values contains the first 500 unique values that meets your filter criteria. If  the column is a date, a list of date ranges is displayed instead. If you select a value, a filter will be created using '=' (for example, column = 'ABC').
