For Tables, select one or more columns to use as fields in the table.
For Bar Charts, Pie Charts, and Line Charts: choose columns to use for X Series Selection and Y Series Selection (X and Y axis of the chart).
Note: any report that includes a calculated field (such as Total, Percent, etc.) must have a grouping for that field.
Use the arrow controls to move fields to and from the Group Ordering list. Single arrows move a selected item to or from the list. Double arrows move all items to or from the list.
Use the Top, Up, Down, and Bottom buttons to sequence items in the list as you want.
Use the arrow controls to move fields to and from the Sort Ordering list.
