Sorting of Values Across Group in Pivot Views
We have added a new option called Sort across Group which helps you apply clearer and more consistent sorting in Pivot Tables.
Earlier, sorting worked only inside each group. With Sort across Group, you can now sort the entire pivot table based on the selected column, regardless of how the groups are arranged.
Freeze Column Support in Pivot & Summary Views
We have added Freeze Column support in Pivot and Summary Views to help you work more comfortably with wide reports. This feature keeps selected columns fixed on the left side of the table while you scroll horizontally, allowing you to compare key columns with other metrics without losing context.
Report-Level Fiscal Year Option
Align individual reports with your organization's financial calendar by defining the Fiscal Year start month at the report level. This setting applies only to the selected report and appears when a date column is used, enabling accurate time-period analysis.

Dynamic Thresholds with Variables in User Filters
Aggregate formulas can now be used with variables inside thresholds. When paired with User Filters, threshold values are calculated dynamically based on each user’s filter selections ensuring every user sees context-relevant threshold boundaries instead of a fixed value.
Datatype-based Variable Suggestions for Default User Filters
When configuring default values in User Filters, only variables matching the filter’s datatype are now listed. This prevents configuration issues such as assigning a text variable to a numeric filter, and ensures accurate default value mapping.
