The lines on the Statistics Sort Sequences tab refer to the Statistics Sort Sequences (tdsta1101m000) session. On
this tab, you can enter and view the sort atrributes that are linked to the
statistics sort and group them in a sequence. Sort attributes are fields that
are used to sort data in statistics reports and overviews. They identify
specific sequences of a selection of the level attributes, as entered in the Statistics Level (tdsta0601m000) session and as selected in the Statistics Parameters (tdsta0100m000) session. Note If sequences are define for a sort, you can no longer change
the sort. However, you can maintain the sequences for the sort. If a sort is
active, you cannot change the sort, nor its sequences. Example A company wants to view its sales statistics in some cases by
country, business partner, and item, and other times it wants to see the data
only by item. When looking at its statistical data, the company wants to
compare its budget to the turnover. For that purpose, a sort code is created
with a sort sequence listing country, business partner, and item and another
sort code is created for which the sort sequence is just item. In both sort
codes, the Sales Budgets and Sales Turnover check boxes are selected. Sort An identifying code and description of a set of data fields
grouped in a sequence. These data fields are used in statistics reports and
displays. When a report or display is generated, the fields are filled with
data from the database and displayed in the report or display according to the
