Information can be easier
to understand when it appears in an intentional order. Applying a
sort order to one or more data items in SAS Visual Analytics Designer
enables you to arrange rows and columns in tables and axis labels
on charts in some order, such as alphabetically or highest to lowest
numerically. Interactively changing the order of data can provide
you with a different perspective that often facilitates valuable insight.
For example, in a report, sales employees who are initially arranged
alphabetically can be re-sorted by sales amount.
