In data tables such as the package dashboard or parts reports, when certain report fields are merged, the values in the cells of the non-merged report fields will be organized in alpha-numerical order. For example, if there is a report with a column merged based on ‘Stratus.Part.Number’ and another column for ‘Material,’ the values within the ‘Material’ column will be sorted alpha-numerically. This means that within the ‘Material’ column, ‘Carbon Steel’ would be listed before ‘Copper’ due to the alpha-numerical sorting criteria applied to that field.
