Video: Data Bucketing
Data Bucketing lets you quickly categorize report records without creating a formula or a custom field. When you create a bucket field, you define multiple categories (buckets) used to group report values. For example, create a bucket field named Size based on the # Employees field. Then, create buckets that group records into “Large,” “Medium,” or “Small” ranges that you define. Bucket fields can be used like any other field to sort, filter, and group your report.

(Advanced) Using cross-filters in a report
Use cross filters to filter a report by an object's child objects using WITH or WITHOUT conditions. For example, filter a report to show just accounts with cases, or contacts without activities. You can apply cross filters by themselves, or in combination with field filters.
Note that filter logic applies only to field filters—not cross filters. You can create up to three cross filters per report.
Add subfilters to further filter by fields on the child object. For example, if you have a cross filter of Accounts with Opportunities, click Add Opportunity Filter and create the Opportunity Name equals ACME subfilter to see just those opportunities. You can create up to five subfilters for each cross filter.

Video: Building Matrix Reports
Matrix reports are similar to summary reports but allow you to group and summarize data by bothrows and columns. They can be used as the source report for dashboard components. Use this type for comparing related totals, especially if you have large amounts of data to summarize and you need to comparevalues in several different fields, or you want to look at data bydate and by product, person, or geography. Matrix reports without at least one row and one column grouping show as summary reports on the report run page.

Admin Status of Volunteer Opportunities and Occurrences
Sometimes you might want to track volunteer opportunities, occurrences and connections strictly on the back end of the system. This is sometimes true for corporate events where volunteers will not be interacting with the website, but you still want to keep track of who volunteered and how many hours they served.
This can be done by placing a volunteer opportunity and its occurrences in Admin Status.

Saving and Sharing Searches
Saved Searches provide a way for volunteers to easily recall a set of search parameters. This is handy if you frequently want to find, for example, date & time specific opportunities that serve children.
Saved searches are useful useful as they provide URLs that admins can use in the CMS for creating navigation items that display a specific saved, filtered-search result.
Searches and URLs for filtered search results can be created and saved from the Search page or from the Opportunity Calendar page.
