Overview: SQL Expressions

Filter selected fields by defining a WHERE clause in the SQL expression, indicating the conditions that need to be met in order for the values to be included in the new dataset. Only the fields selected will be listed in the new dataset.

You can then also order the values of the highest priority field in an ascending or descending order.
