Report sorting - needing more than 3 sorts

Loann McGee

Good afternoon,

I have several reports that I am limited in displaying correctly since the sort option only allows for a maximum of three. Is there a plan to increase the number?

I tried the Summary and Grouping options and it makes the report too clunky. I just need a streamlined sort with more sort options. ;)

Blessings,

Loann

Create a formula that joins your sort fields together, then sort on your formula column..

@MCorbin - it is a workaround, but not one that is viable for long-term due to how many reports I need to do various sorts on. I'll end up with many additional columns to the sheets where the data is pulling from. ;)

MCorbin

That's a good point. Definitely a work-around

@MCorbin Now to figure out how to do those formulas in the parent sheet... LOL.

Can you please let me know what formulas you use? I am running into the same issue. Anything would be greatly appreciated :)

@AlyssaHM2017 sadly, I've not had the capacity to do so. I wish there was the multiple option to do so, like we have in Workflows to just add another condition and then be able to SAVE that sort by a name. ;)
