Set Up Search Results in Groups
To display search results in groups based on the specific fields on the object or related objects, you must set the Enable Group By in Workspace parameter to Y.
When the parameter is enabled, salespeople can view an overview of the number of records in each Grouped By grouping and can search and filter records within these groupings. They can also view aggregates such as count, average, and sum of values on the records of each group.
