[Autogenerated] high in this lesson. I'm
gonna show you how to sort a list in
SharePoint. We're here on our HR team site
were in our employees list. And when we
take a look at this list, let's let's look
at sea. The last name column. We see that
it's not sorted. Certainly not by last
name or by first names or by I D number,
date of hire, department location, not
even hourly rate. It's not sorted at all.
It's most likely just sorted by the order.
Things were added, so we want to go ahead
and we want to sort this list. We would
like to sort it, Let's say by the last
name alphabetically, from A to Z A.
Sending. So we come up here to the last
name header to our head a row here and we
see that there is a little arrow pointing
down that indicates to us that there's
something going on underneath. If you will
were gonna click on that and we get this
little pop up window. Now we see that we
have two options sorting a dizzy or zita a
A sending or descending. We're gonna
choose to sort this list and it's going to
sort the whole list a dizzy
alphabetically. So we're gonna click there
and look at now. Our entire list is sorted
alphabetically by last name, and I could
go all the way down and it would be sorted
by the last name all the way to the end.
Now, when we take another look over here,
we now see that there's this little arrow
and it's pointing upwards. This arrow
indicates to us that this list has been
sorted by this criteria by the last name.
And because the arrow is pointing up, we
know that it has been sort of a sending or
alphabetically, in this case, a disease.
Now let's go ahead and let's go over here
to the date of Hire column. Let's say that
we want to sort this list by the date of
hire. Instead, let's go ahead and let's
click there and we see older to newer,
newer to older. We're gonna select newer
toe older, and now it is sorted from the
most recent employee, which happens to be
me all the way down to our longest
standing employee, and we got to go all
the way down to the bottom for that, and
we see that it is Harry who's been with
the company since 1999. So when we come
back up to the top, we see again that the
arrow is there only this time it's
pointing down again, letting us know that
it has been sorted, descending. Now notice
that the arrow is off of the last name
column and we're not sorted by the last
name anymore. You can only sort this list
by one criteria at a time at this simple
level. All right, now, the thing about
thes sorts is they don't stay in place
unless you save it. And that's another
lesson for another day. If I go ahead and
I leave my list, I'm gonna go to my home
page and then I'm gonna go back to my
lists. Will come back here to the employee
list. You'll see that my shorts are gone.
The list is once again sorted the way it
was initially when we first came to the
site again. Those sorts don't stay unless
you save that view and we'll talk about
that in another lesson. So now you know
how to sort a SharePoint list. Thanks for listening and I'll see you next time
