Value Sorting

11 Feb 20192 minutes to read

IMPORTANT

This feature is applicable only for the relational datasource.

PivotClient provides support for value sorting that allows you to sort columns and rows based on value fields.

The headers of the column to be sorted are given in the HeaderText property under ValueSortSettings in field wise order separated by a string. The string which is used to separate the headers is given in the HeaderDelimiters property.

The following code snippet shows how to sort values in descending order.

JS

<ej:PivotClient ID="PivotClient1" runat="server" ClientIDMode="Static">
        <DataSource>
            <Rows>
                <ej:Field FieldName="Country" FieldCaption="Country"></ej:Field>
            </Rows>
            <Columns>
                <ej:Field FieldName="Product" FieldCaption="Product"></ej:Field>
            </Columns>
            <Values>
                <ej:Field FieldName="Amount" FieldCaption="Amount"></ej:Field>
                <ej:Field FieldName="Quantity" FieldCaption="Quantity"></ej:Field>
            </Values>
        </DataSource>
        <ValueSortSettings HeaderText="Bike##Quantity" HeaderDelimiters="##" SortOrder="Descending" />
    </ej:PivotClient>
