Change value order in Tabulate

What inspired this wish list request? 

I saw that in JMP 17 we can now change the value order of a variable in Graph Builder, and it will save that property back to the column.

 

What is the improvement you would like to see? 

I would like to see this same feature applied to the Tabulate platform.  I often build summary tables and this is where I frequently become aware that I need to fix the values in a particular order other than their occurrence or alphabetically.  Being able to do this right from the Tabulate page would be great.

 

Why is this idea important? 

It's efficient and consistent with other platforms.

I totally agree with this suggestion.

I do a tabulate to see the percentage of different activities and these are ordered by count bit not by the percentage of total value (time spent) which is not carrying the message I want to transmit.
