User Defined Sort - Is This Possible?

The "In Hospital" view in the app i'm working on shows residents ordered by room number, which is fine for the providers performing rounds. But sometimes a user may want to see the data sorted/represented a different way.

The In Hospital view is a dashboard that contains slices for each facility. Is it possible for a user to change the sort in these slice and dashboard views?

Hello @mykrobinson, if with "change the sort" you mean change from ascending to descending or which column to sort with, yes, your users can do that by clicking the column headers of interest, I don't quite remember if this is still in preview or if it was already rolled out tho.


It's not accurate to say that a slice is on a dashboard, since slices are just a portion of your data. Dashboard are a group of views.

So I'll assume you have views made from slices, but that doesn't affect in this context.

Now, the way to give users the posibility to sort you have to use Table Views, that's the only one I know of. Then the user can click on the table headers to sort based on any column they want.

Anyway, I don't suggest this on dashboards, it's a problem that the original sorting is not recovered

Hi,

A screenshot could help.

Maybe you can have multiple views , based on the same slices , but ordered different. And you can set each view to be hidden or not,based on a setting tou create. 

 

The end user could only see one view in app (but in background will be other hidden views) , and when the user changes a setting, the current view will become hidden,and another one will surface.
