This feature adds the "Group Table - By Columns" option for your Detail Table providing you the option of selecting the columns to use for grouping your detailed tables.  Previously, for detail tables, the grouped combined detail would be grouped by the associated parent records, with this enhancement you now have the option to select the columns to group by for your detail tables independent from any parent table groupings.
