Group and Sort Resource Usage Spreadsheet Columns in the Resource Assignments Window Is Display Options Bar, Group and Sort By

What a planner means
Group and sort Resource Usage Spreadsheet columns in the Resource Assignments window is Oracle Group and sort Resource Usage Spreadsheet columns in the Resource Assignments window. Activity Resource Assignments layout: Display Options bar → Group and Sort By. Choose a predefined group and sort option, or choose Customize. Customize: Group By field; Sort (then OK); Font & Color; Delete to remove a grouping field. It is a how-to. It is not stored as its own table. It does not create, edit, or delete a relationship. It is not the Resource Usage Spreadsheet object note, not Group and sort Resource Usage Spreadsheet columns in the Activities window, not Customize Resource Usage Spreadsheet columns, not TASKPRED, not EPPM copied onto Professional, and not Microsoft Resource Usage grouping.
Oracle does print a how-to titled Group and sort Resource Usage Spreadsheet columns in the Resource Assignments window. Oracle does not print a menu item named Group and sort Resource Usage Spreadsheet columns in the Resource Assignments window. The path that how-to prints is Display Options bar → Group and Sort By in the Activity Resource Assignments layout. Do not invent View > Group and sort Resource Usage Spreadsheet columns.
Oracle Group and sort Resource Usage Spreadsheet columns in the Resource Assignments window (Professional):
- "In the Activity Resource Assignments layout, click the Display Options bar, then choose Group and Sort By. Choose one of the predefined group and sort options, or, to customize grouping and sorting, choose Customize."
- If you choose Customize: "In the Group By column, double-click the cell, then select the field by which you want to group."
- "Click Sort, then select the field names you want to sort by for the grouping. Click OK."
- "To change a group's display color and font, double-click the appropriate Font & Color field."
- "To group and sort by additional fields, repeat steps 1 and 2."
- Tip: "To remove a grouping field, select the field you want to remove, then click Delete."
That how-to fetched prints OK on the Sort step. It prints no Apply, no Save, no Yes, no left/middle pane, and no named list of predefined group and sort options. Do not invent those on this how-to. Oracle prints Activity Resource Assignments layout on this page. Do not replace that with Activities window wording from the other how-to.
The Resource Usage Spreadsheet is a different object note. Leave Resource Usage Spreadsheet as the object.
Group and sort Resource Usage Spreadsheet columns in the Activities window is a different how-to. Left or middle pane. Do not collapse this onto that page. See Group and Sort Resource Usage Spreadsheet Columns in the Activities Window.
Customize Resource Usage Spreadsheet columns is a different how-to. Columns, Customize. See Customize Resource Usage Spreadsheet Columns.
Professional vs EPPM
Professional — Activity Resource Assignments layout; Display Options bar → Group and Sort By; predefined or Customize (Group By, Sort, Font & Color, Delete). OK on Sort. No Apply on this how-to page.
EPPM web — the Professional how-to page is the source for this note. Do not invent an EPPM Group and Sort By dialog. Do not copy Professional Display Options bar onto EPPM.
Primavera Cloud is a different product. Do not copy it here.
XER
The how-to is not an XER table. Oracle’s project XER map TOC has no RESOURCEUSAGE / RUSGROUPSORT table. Do not invent a view %T. Group and Sort By does not write TASK. Layouts travel as .plf. A Viewer cannot reconstruct that the planner used this how-to.
Microsoft Project
Microsoft Project can group Resource Usage. Do not map that as P6 Group and sort Resource Usage Spreadsheet columns in the Resource Assignments window. Do not claim MPXJ writes a real MPP.
Don't
- Invent View > Group and sort Resource Usage Spreadsheet columns, Apply, Save, Yes, left/middle pane, or a list of predefined group and sort option names.
- Collapse this onto the Activities group-and-sort how-to, Customize columns, or the Resource Usage Spreadsheet object.
- Copy Professional Group and Sort By onto EPPM.
- Invent a RUSGROUPSORT XER table, or reconstruct the how-to from TASKRSRC.
- Map MSP Resource Usage grouping as this how-to.
- Claim MPXJ writes a real MPP.
