Initialization

Grouping bar allows you to dynamically alter the report by filter, sort, and remove operations in the pivot grid control. Based on the relational data source and report bound to the pivot grid control, the grouping bar will be automatically populated. You can enable this option in the pivot grid by setting the EnableGroupingBar property to true.

Filtering values

The filtering option available in the grouping bar allows you to select a specific set of values that should be displayed in the pivot grid control. At least, one value should be present in checked state while filtering, otherwise, the OK button will be disabled.

Sorting values

The sorting option available in the grouping bar allows you to arrange headers in ascending or descending order. This option is applicable for fields available only in the row and column region. By default, headers are sorted in the ascending order. In the sorting indicator, up arrow denotes the ascending order and a down arrow denotes the descending order.
