About This Feature

Overview

Table Components is a dashboard table view in WPS that displays detailed records, shows field-level information, and lets you adjust how data appears for day-to-day review. It is useful when you want to review complete records in one dashboard instead of switching to another view.

Core capabilities include:

Add a table component: Insert a default table component into a dashboard.
Edit or delete a table: Reconfigure, duplicate, or remove an existing table from its component menu.
Configure table display settings: Set the data source, record filters, fields, sorting, grouping, and row height.

Capability Summary	Lets you add a table component to a dashboard and configure its data source, filters, fields, sorting, grouping, and row height for detailed record review.	Word supports sorting table contents and choosing sort rules by text, number, or date, but the official page focuses on document table sorting.	Google Docs supports adding and editing tables, sorting rows, moving rows and columns, and pinning header rows for document-based table organization.	Notion table views are built on databases and support filters, sorts, groups, and view settings for structured data display.	Acrobat official guidance focuses on searching and indexing PDF content rather than configuring a dashboard-style table component.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: You can add, configure, and review a table directly inside the same dashboard, which fits ongoing record monitoring.	Compared with WPS: The official workflow is centered on sorting static document tables rather than configuring a dashboard component.	Compared with WPS: It works well for document table editing and sorting, but offers fewer dashboard-style display controls.	Compared with WPS: Database views are more database-centric, while WPS fits a dashboard embedding scenario more directly.	Compared with WPS: The official feature focus is PDF search, not table component display and configuration.

Overall Conclusion
If you need to keep detailed records visible in a dashboard and adjust the display with filters, fields, sorting, or grouping, WPS Table Components is closely aligned with that workflow. The other products also provide table or data organization features, but their official guidance is more focused on document tables, database views, or PDF search scenarios.
