Nasriyah,

 

How does your workflow look like? Is the Total revenue row coming from a separate stream? If so, you can select the order in the union tool.

 

Alternatively, I assume the Total revenue will always be the highest value in the column, so you can sort it by value.

Hi Michal,

 

Thanks for the solution ideas, much appreciated.

Furthermore - in some cases (say for instance your blue row was an average instead of total) you can create a "sort" field using a formula, then simply sort the records before the reporting tool and not display that sorting field in the output.

 

[Sort] = IF IsEmpty([YourDateFields]) THEN 2 ELSE 1 END IF

Sort by [Sort] ASC before the report tool, then simply don't use that field in the table.
