How to define Sorting
You can sort a group by expression of any element within the group. Insert the following syntax within the group tags:
<?sort:expression?>
For example, to sort the Employee breakdown by Employee Number (EMPLOYEE_NUMBER), enter the following after the
<?for-each:G_FULL_NAME?>
tag:
<?sort:xdofx:rpad(EMPLOYEE_NUMBER,10,'0')?>
To sort a group by multiple fields, just insert the sort syntax after the primary sort field. To sort by Full Name and then by Employee Number, enter the following
<?sort:FULL_NAME?><?sort:xdofx:rpad(EMPLOYEE_NUMBER,10,'0')?>
This example is displayed in the figure below (
