Numeric and Text based data displayed in a report can be translated from values held in the database to more meaningful values by adding a reference code to a dimension. This mapping is called Org Ref Codes. The Ref Code Manager page allows administrators to edit existing Org Ref Codes created through the Drag & Drop View Builder. See Organisation Reference Codes for more information on creating Org Ref Codes.

Here you are able to toggle various features available to the Reference Code.

1. Custom Sort: this allows you to apply a sort order other than alphabetical. For example, you could sort months chronologically by setting January = 1, February = 2, etc.
2. Custom Colours: this allows you to assign colours to the various values of the field. These colours can be used in charts and filters to ensure that values are easily identified and consistent across reports.
3. Custom Images: this allows you to assign images to the various values of the field. These images can be used with In List filters in order to aid the user in selecting values. The image will be displayed next to the value in the list.
