Views
When working with data you may need to create various types of reports. Reports that help to filter, group and sort table records in a certain way are called Views. TeamDesk enables you to create and save several views for one table. A view is a supplementary report where records are filtered and displayed in a specific way. You can create an unlimited number of views for existing tables. Moreover, you can highlight and group these views under categories in the left menu.

Say you need to find an answer: how much money each student paid each month, for example, during the term. You’d likely want to have subtotals of payments for all students each month as well as the subtotal for each student for the whole term. In this case the Cross-tab View will help you to display information in handy way. In our example months/dates form columns while student names form rows; each cell displays the total amount paid by the student during the month.
Use this view type to display the information in a compact way.
