## Group records

The Group tab the Filter <entity> dialog box enables you to display data in a defined hierarchy. It can be used together with your filter criteria.

Note: The Group tab is available only for Grid view, which is applicable in the Test Runs, Defects, and Requirements tab.

Consider the following about the group-by fields:

- If you group records by a field containing multiple values, the information in each value is grouped as its entire value. This value is the category for grouping. For example, a value with `English` and `French` is grouped as `English;French`, and not as part of separate `English` and `French` categories. For details on allowing multiple values, see the ALLOW_MULTIPLE_VALUES site configuration parameter. For details, see Set parameters at site level.

- The group by list displays only system and user-defined fields associated with a User List or Lookup List type field. For details on field types, see Customize project entities.

The user interface elements of the Group tab are described below:

UI Element | Description
--- | ---
Group items by | Select the field by which your data is firstly grouped.
Then by | Select the field by which your data is additionally grouped.
Apply | Applies the group-by settings.
