Sorting Members

You can sort members in ascending or descending order, by children or descendants. Sorting members affects the outline. For example, you can alphabetize a list of child members by sorting in descending order to help users quickly locate members in hierarchies in the Simplified dimension editor.

To sort members in the grid:

  1. Select the members whose children or descendants you want to sort.

  2. In the Sort drop-down, select Children or Descendants.

  3. Click Sort Ascending icon to sort in ascending order, or click Sort Descending icon to sort in descending order.

Note:

  • If you do not see the Sort options at the top of the page, click More Options icon

  • Sorting by children affects only members in the level immediately below the selected member. Sorting by descendants affects all descendants of the selected member.
