### **Fields Available for Grouping**

You can group your records by most field types. However, there are some exceptions:

* Multiple option fields
* Multi-linked fields

These field types cannot be used for grouping due to their complex nature.

### **Multiple Field Grouping**

For Table and Row layouts, you can group by multiple fields:

* You can group by up to 3 fields simultaneously
* This feature allows for more detailed and hierarchical organization of your data

{% hint style="info" %}
The option to group by multiple fields is currently only available for Table and Row layouts.
