Each data type will have a unique set of format options - e.g. Text, Date or Numeric.

See Column Formatting for more information.

Chart Title

If you have charts on your section report there will be a separate chart for each section. To use the section name as the chart title check this item.

Show Labels

If you wish to suppress the labels of the section uncheck this option and the column name will be removed but the section value will continue to be displayed. Note: this option is not available if the Section Style is set to Tabbed.

Section Style

• Single Page - View the report, and its sections, on a single page.
• Section Per Page - Yellowfin allows you to break your report into multiple pages. This is particularly useful if you have a lot of data to display on a single report.

  If you wish to have a page break per section select 'Multiple Page' as the Section Style and the report will have multiple pages - one for each distinct section value.
  Section breaks are not only used for web display but are also used when exporting for example to a PDF file.
• Tabbed - You can also choose to break your report into tabs. This is a visually clear and easy to navigate way of splitting your report.

Section Total

Section totals can be applied to any numeric value. When a section is added to the report an option to have the totals displayed for all numeric values is available.
To activate this option select the Section total option from your drop down menu. Your metric columns must already have a summary enabled.

Grand Totals

A grand total can also be displayed at the end of the report. This will sum all the sections into one total. To active this function you need to select the Grand total option in the summary drop down.
