▪If there is more than one item of cell contents, the first item is always used for the sort.

▪By default, values are sorted in descending order.

▪Sorting rows that contain cumulative column percentages or columns that contain cumulative row percentages is not recommended, as the reordered percentage values do not give meaningful results.

▪Axes are not sorted if they contain a combination of nesting and concatenation and UNICOM Intelligence Professional does not issue a message to alert you to this.

▪You cannot use an element that is inside a net to sort the other axis of the table.

▪You cannot sort an axis that contains net elements in an outer nest level. Any sorting that would apply to the axis is ignored.

▪There are a number of special rules that apply when sorting axes that contain special elements. See Sorting special elements.
