    Hi Hariom,

    Bucket field in Salesforce Reports is an incredibly powerful functionality used to quickly categorize values for a field in a report without the need to have a custom formula field at the object level. When you create a bucket field in Salesforce, you define multiple categories into groups depending on the record values, this bucket field will not affect other Salesforce reports. Bucket fields in Salesforce are available in Tabular reports, Summary Reports, and Matrix report. Joined Reports does not support Bucket fields.

    Hi Hariom,

    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 eg, if you have a status field on Leads with 10 picklist values, you could group them into 2 or three categories or ‘buckets’ such as “Cold” “Warm” and “Hot”
