Type of difference
This is the default view when the Schema Compare Results tab is launched for the first time. The Schema Synchronization Tool groups the schema objects according to their state and under each state, it sorts the objects according to its type.
No Groups
The Schema Synchronization Tool does not group the schema objects. Instead, it lists the objects according to their object name. On applying a sort to the object names, the Schema Synchronization Tool sorts the schema objects alphabetically in ascending or descending order. Unlike the Type of Differences view, the Schema Synchronization Tool displays object state and object types in separate columns.
