Easily sort, filter, group, and aggregate your spend data with the following features:

Grouping and Aggregation

Grouping allows you to organize your spend by different columns such as categories, departments, or suppliers.
Dashboard Filters
To group your data, drag and drop any column header into the grouping area above the table, or expand the column selector on the right-hand side of the table and drag any column to the Row Group area. When you group data, our dashboard provides the option to aggregate information within each group. This means you can see sums, averages, or counts applied to numerical data, providing a quick overview of the metrics that matter most to your procurement processes. To aggregate your grouped data, expand the column selector on the right-hand side of the table and drag any numeric column to the Values area. Make sure to select the type of aggregation you would like to see, such as “sum,” “average,” etc.

Pinning Columns

To ensure you always have access to the most critical data, our dashboard allows you to pin columns. Pinned columns remain visible on the screen as you scroll horizontally, making it easier to reference key information while reviewing other data. To pin a column, click on the column header you wish to pin and drag it to the left or right of the page. When you see the pin icon, drop the column, and it will be successfully pinned.

Column Selection

Customize your view by selecting which columns to display on the dashboard. Expand the vertical column selector on the right side of the table and select or deselect columns from your view. You can also drag and drop items in this list to change their order.

Data Persistence and Reversion

Airflip ensures that any unsaved changes you make to your view settings are not lost when you reload the page, navigate back to your table using the back button, or log out and back in; your most recent settings will persist. To revert any unsaved changes and return to the last saved state of a view, simply click the circular arrow icon on the right-hand side above the table. This action will restore your view to its previously saved configuration.
