Interactive sorting of matrix rows

‎09-17-2024 01:32 PM

I have a matrix that groups sales by the following rows:

  • date
  • sales team
  • salesperson.

I would like the user (who only has read permissions) to be able to sort these fields as they wish. That is, they can choose whether to break down by sales team, date, and salesperson, or by salesperson, date, and sales team, etc.

I know I could do this by creating bookmarks, but I want to avoid this option.
