The report has a group defined as string. the report needs to be sort in

asc alphabetical order except one group needs always list in the first group. Is there easy way to create custom sort formula to avoid create a extra sort field in sql?

Thanks!

I would just create a formula field that has the sorting you want, group on it but use the orignal field for display

 
if {table.NAME}='one off' then ' one off' else {table.NAME}
