Creating a Ranking List The functions
Top n
,
Top %
,
Last n
and
Last %
let you create a ranking list based on a single column of the report list. With these functions you can display those rows of the list that have the largest or smallest values in a single column. A subtotal is displayed for these rows, and the rest of the rows are added together and displayed in a row "Remainder".
Note
Each time you define a new display condition, this overwrites any previous condition, so that only one condition can be active at a time.
Position the cursor on the column for which you want to define the ranking list. The function is available for all the columns of the list.
For more information about changing or deleting ranking lists, see
