Sorted Grouping

Avatar

Level 10

Hi folks,

I was struggling for a while to figure out how to apply some sort of order (sort) for groupings. My objective was to be able to group a task report by Planned Completion Date, and then ensure that the grouping was displayed in a logical sequence when the report was run (e.g. the oldest Planned Completion Date in the first grouping).

Here is the text mode snippet I used; however, you ALSO HAVE TO have the Planned Completion Date field as a column in your view, and it needs to be sorted (first, and ascending).

group.0.groupdatesby=DY

group.0.displayname=Due

group.0.notime=false

group.0.valuefield=plannedCompletionDate

group.0.valueformat=atDateAsDayString

group.0.namekey=plannedCompletionDate

group.0.linkedname=direct

Hope this helps others who have run into the same issue.

Cheers.

Nick
