==Setting the Field Sort Order==
 
 
 
* Once you have selected the fields to be displayed and have saved your list view, the Sort Order tab will appear.
 
* In this tab, you can set the default sort order for the records in the list view.
 
* '''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.

# Click on the "Add" button to add rows to the Sort Order definition.
 
# Choose a field that the list view should be sorted by, by default.
 
# 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.
