Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer
In Workday reporting, row ordering is controlled on the Sort tab of the report definition. If you want the rows in a matrix report to sort by a specific field (such as Total Count), you must add that field to the Sort tab. Filters limit records, and summarizations define metrics, but sorting rules are explicitly defined in the Sort configuration.
From the Workday Reporting documentation:
"Sort - Control the order to present and group data. You can specify options for subtotals, grand totals, and outlines. Add a row on the Sort tab to define sorting by a particular field." Therefore, to sort rows by Total Count instead of Total Average Base Pay, the correct step is C. Add a new row to the grid on the Sort tab.
