    4. Under Fields Settings, you can do the following:

      • Select Hide this field if you want to omit a specific field from the report.

      • From the Subtotal function list, select the aggregation value to display as a subtotal within the report for the specific field, such as number of rows (COUNT ROW) or number of unique values within a column (COUNT UNIQUE VALUE.)

      • From the Filters list, select an operator to filter the results, such as between to display results between two defined points.
