I have looked for information regarding grouping on columns. Grouping on
columns is especially important for financial reporting where you for
example would like to show quarters or half-years by column. Can anyone
answer if this is possible and if not is it in the road map?

Cheers,

I am not sure what you mean by "grouping on columns". Can you give an
example of what the table will look like?
regards,

What I mean is that currently you can add groups by row, but not by
column. I would like to use group with intervall by column. This way you
could get periods by column shown by quarter.

Thanks,

I have only seen this available via cross tabs... And birt does not
support them yet..

Does anyone know as to when this functionality will be implemented in BIRT?
I am also looking for a way to have the tables be grouped by columns was
well as rows.

So Instead of:

Header row
Detail row
Footer rwo

you can have:

Header Column Detail Column Footer Column

Please see link picture for better example.
