Custom Report Columns Improvement 

At EDIS, we’re always listening to our clients to improve our platform. Recently, Adam, Data Manager at Wauwatosa School District, reached out with a question: ‘Is there an easier way to rearrange columns?  I need the columns at the end in the front but it seems drag and drop is the only way...is there a better, more efficient way?’. This pointed to a key pain point—managing large reports with multiple columns can be inefficient.

But that wasn’t all. He also suggested adding a ‘select all’ option for the metric size and wrapping. He said: ‘We almost always use the same settings that are uniform across all metrics, so it would be a nice time saver if we could just select everything’. This feedback aligned with our goal to make processes smoother for users who prefer consistent settings. 

Taking this into account, our development team quickly implemented a solution: now, users can easily rearrange columns in just a few clicks—no more endless dragging! Additionally, the ‘select all’ option for metric size and wrapping is now available, streamlining your workflow and saving you time.

That being said, we are excited to introduce the latest improvements to Custom Reports.

Drag and Drop Rows

From the 'Edit' option, in the 'Columns' section, select the column and drag it to your desired position. The screen will automatically update to reflect the change.

Buttons to Up or Down Rows

In the 'Columns' section, you will find the 'Move Up' and 'Move Down' buttons for each column. These let you easily rearrange the order of your columns with just one click.

Buttons to move Top or Bottom Rows

The 'Move to the first position' and 'Move to the last position' buttons let you quickly move any column to the top or bottom of the list. 

Size and Wrap all Rows

From now on, it will be easier to set the Size, Wrap function, and Scale type for multiple columns at once, saving you time by applying changes in bulk instead of one column at a time. 

‘Select All’

If you'd like to apply specific settings to all columns, the new 'Select All' option lets you select everything with just one click, streamlining the process and and removing the need to adjust each column individually.

Drag and Drop Columns in Custom Reports

Our latest feature allows you to rearrange columns manually. Simply 'drag' any column of interest and 'drop' it into the desired position. 

Improvements

Section Space on Dashboard

Previously, large gaps created layout inconsistencies, impacting data flow and readability. By optimizing the spacing, the interface is now more compact and coherent, enhancing user experience and data presentation.

Ed-Fi Ingestion Connector

We've enhanced our Ed-Fi connector, simplifying the process and increasing performance. Data integration is now faster, and the ingestion process is more efficient than ever.
