Introduction
Astrato's Pivot Table allows you to dynamically slice and dice your data, drilling down and through the data in an interactive display.
Customization options allow you to highlight the data, improve your table visualization, and let your data tell the story you need to share.
Sort by Measure
Known Limitations
One table can only show up to 7 dimensions.

Pivot Table Special Properties
Astrato’s pivot table elevates our existing table features, with more grouped dimension values that aggregate across the top and the left-hand side.
The pivot table lets users display a dimension across the top to create a grid-like table visualization. You can view cross-sections of data with first and second-layer data filters.
Sort by Measure
Sorting the pivot table display by measure enables the creation of tables that display critical information at the top.
When sorting a table by measure, it takes precedence over other sorting definitions.
To enable sorting by measure, you turn on the switch.
Then you define these parameters:
Measure- select one of the measures that are used in the pivot table
Direction- set the direction of sorting by the measure
Apply to- choose between sorting by measure, both the row and column dimensions, or only the row dimensions.
Sorting is applied to all dimensions, including internal dimensions.
The image below shows a table sorted with the setting above.
