Enhanced Column Capabilities allow for the use of sorting, filtering, totaling, and breaking on any column with this feature enabled. For performance reasons, these features are not enabled on all columns by default. It may be necessary to enable these capabilities on a column before being able to use the enhanced features.
To enable the Enhanced Column Capabilities on a column, click the column heading while viewing a report to open the column menu. Select Enable Sorting, Breaking, Filtering, and Totaling. Once this has been selected, a process known as materialization will begin. This process prepares the column and its values for these enhanced features.
While this materialization is occurring, an animated icon will appear in the column heading showing the current status. Once the process is complete, the status information will disappear and the enhanced features will now be available on that column.
You can continue working while this process is underway (up to and including running other reports or even logging out of MITS Report altogether) and the materialization process will keep running until it is finished. The only exceptions to this would be running a Report Source update on this specific report source or stopping the MITS Report service altogether.
