  • NOTE: Read-only fields cannot be sorted against. As a result such fields are not included in the List View Builder on the Sort Order tab.

  1. Click on the "Add" button to add rows to the Sort Order definition.
  2. Choose a field that the list view should be sorted by, by default.
  3. Choose the "Direction" in which the sort should occur.
  • "Ascending" will sort the selection from A to Z, from 0 to 9.
  • "Descending" will sort the selection from Z to A, from 9 to 0.
  • In the example above, the list view will be sorted by:
    • first name (A to Z), then, within sets of matching first names,
    • last name (A to Z), then, within sets of matching first and last names,
    • email addresses (A to Z)
Note that this process defines the ''default'' sort order for the list view. The list view can be re-sorted using the "[[Sort By]]" feature within the list view.
