  • Day - (default) Summarizes records for each day of the year.
  • Week - Summarizes records by week and year.
  • Month - Summarizes records by month and year.
  • Calendar Year - Summarizes records by year.
  • Month in Year -Summarizes records for each month, regardless of year (so Oct 2012 is combined with October 2013).
  • Quarter - Summarizes records by quarter in the calendar year.
  • Always available for the first grouping.
  • Available for the second grouping if the first grouping is by year.

Tabular Report

Tabular reports display data in rows and columns, as a table, with optional Color Coding to highlight significant rows.

Table of Orders by Customer

Matrix Report

Matrix reports are used to organize and summarize your data, and are exceptionally well-suited for chart and dashboard views.

Orders by Source (Internet, Store, or Catalog) and by Offer (Discount, Purchase Incentive, or None).

The Matrix Report has a familiar format that you may know as a cross tabulation report (cross tab) or a pivot table. The resulting data is organized into a two dimensional grid which summarizes data (by total $, row count, or %).

The Matrix Report shows only summary information, based on the selected Row and Column Groups.

To create a Matrix Report, add one or more Row Groups and one or more Column Groups.
