SAP Analytics Cloud: apply sorting in sections (canvas stories)

[former_member777813]

Hi experts,

I created a section in a canvas story page and I need to apply a custom sorting by the dimension used as section filter (by default sections are diplayed in ascending order).

Is it possible? I am not able to see this option.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi jsmith1,

Try right clicking on the dimension header in the table and then select 'sort options'. From there, you can select to create a custom order.

Hi Megan, thanks for your reply.

I need to apply custom order in sections, not in tables.

I temporarely solved creating on the model a property of the dimension "SORT" and using it in the section of the story.

If required, in the story it is possible to hide the numeric list by overlapping a white cell.

unfortunately, there is currently no such option for sections.

But this is a very good proposal to create here. I will vote too
