User designed hierarchies (Ex. User is able to drag and drop fields that will display in that order)

Is there a way for the user to create dynamic hierarchies within a report? I have a lot of fields and they don't necessarily have a defined hierarchy. Certain fields do not matter to specific users, so I wanted to give them the capability of creating their own hierarchy to filter the data. One example I envinsioned was a drag and drop where the user could change the hierarchy on the fly. Examples:

 

School

Teacher

Hi,

Drag and drop the fields on the fly will be a easiest approach for users. Otherwise you also create a field parameters and can allow users to choose whatever fields that they want to add one by one on hierarchy.
