Changing the position of element headers

You can change the position of a custom group's element headers on reports. The element headers can display above or below the individual items, that is, the attribute elements returned by the qualifications. This setting affects all custom group elements in the custom group.

To see a difference in a report, a custom group element must display both the element headers and its items. If the display option of the element is set to display only the element header or only the items, the position of the element headers is immaterial.

Prerequisite

This procedure assumes that the custom group already contains at least one custom group element. For instructions to create a custom group, see Creating custom groups.
