Has the report grouping functionality changed to allow more than 2500 lines?

Hello,

We have some regular reports that we pull data from that are grouped and have over 2500 lines. These reports have always hidden the lines because grouped reports can't show more than 2500 lines.

As of this morning I noticed that now my grouped reports have multiple pages at the bottom and I can see the lines within the groupings even though two of my reports are 33,000 and 58,000 lines respectively.

Is this a new functionality? Can it be undone? I used these grouped reports to get summary data from my projects and I didn't need to see the underling data. The groupings would always be shown on a single page and I had summaries applied to the groupings. This way I could get a sum figure based off the grouping I specified, which I would copy/paste into excels and other internal company reports. Now that there are multiple pages I have to flip through all the pages to see the different group summaries, each page shows data for only 2500 lines. This means that my larger report I need to flip through about 24 pages to get the same summary data I used to get on a single page.

Please help, this seems like a recent Smartsheet update that has major effects on how we use reporting. I have attached photos for reference.

Hi MikeAtSedron

Try to select "Collapse groups" in the Group setting icon of your Report. Hope it works for you.
