Sort options for both lists include:

  • DocType
    Select this option to display report results by document type, such as Invoice, Order, etc.

  • Document #
    Select this option to display the results of the report in the order the BlueTarp transactions occurred (by document number).

  • Date
    Select this option to display the results of the report in date order (earliest to latest).

  • User
    Select this option to display the results of the report by the user ID of the person who processed the transaction.

  • Branch
    Select this option to display the results by branch ID.

  • Amount

Data that meets the selection and filter requirements will be ordered based on the user's selection (if any). Sorts can be done in either ascending or descending order. Ascending order sorts data alphabetically A-Z (numbers are sorted 0-9 before letters, but not based on their numeric value, they are treated similar to letters). Descending order sorts reverse-alphabetically Z-A (numbers are sorted in reverse order after letters 9-0... again, not based on numeric value, but treated as though they were letters being alphabetized).

Totals Options

You can choose from the following total types for this report. Totals (if enabled) key off of the selections made in the Sort By area, so if the sort by is "account" and "sub-totals" is selected, a sub-total will print at the end of each account's list of orders, for example.
