What are the features of the tables in the Portal?

Our Portal houses three types of tables - A Flex Grid, Pivot Grid V1, and Pivot Grid V2. This article will showcase each of their functionalities.

Pivot Grid V2

  • The Pivot Grid V2 has become our primary grid of use throughout our new portal templates.
  • The Pivot Grid V2 closely represents that of a Pivot Grid in Excel, including a pop-out panel that supports drag and drop (build your own pivot) functionality.
  • Hovering over the grid, you will see a COG Wheel that opens/closes the Pivot Panel, a Download Icon that Exports to Excel, and a Tooltip.
  • The Grid also supports the ability to store some measures in the backend that won't load into the right output until dragged in. 
  • Your customized grids can be saved using 'My Views' for the next time you log in. 

 

Collapsed

Expanded

 

Pivot Grid V1

  • The Pivot Grid V1 is our first version of the Pivot Grid.
  • It simply just supports Expand/Collapse Functionality.
  • It is strongly recommended to upgrade to the Pivot Grid V2 above.

 

Flex Grid

  • The Flex Grid is the most used Grid as of 30/08/2021.
  • The Flex Grid is more of a static 'fixed' grid than that of the Pivot Grid.
  • Supports Export to Excel Button.
  • Supports the ability to trim back measures (COG Wheel) but doesn't support adding and/or storing measures like that of the Pivot Panel.
