00:00:04,190 --> 00:00:05,860
[Autogenerated] high in this lesson. I'm

2
00:00:05,860 --> 00:00:08,600
gonna show you how to sort a list in

3
00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:12,210
SharePoint. We're here on our HR team site

4
00:00:12,210 --> 00:00:15,600
were in our employees list. And when we

5
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:18,190
take a look at this list, let's let's look

6
00:00:18,190 --> 00:00:21,520
at sea. The last name column. We see that

7
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:24,740
it's not sorted. Certainly not by last

8
00:00:24,740 --> 00:00:29,860
name or by first names or by I D number,

9
00:00:29,860 --> 00:00:37,790
date of hire, department location, not

10
00:00:37,790 --> 00:00:41,540
even hourly rate. It's not sorted at all.

11
00:00:41,540 --> 00:00:45,030
It's most likely just sorted by the order.

12
00:00:45,030 --> 00:00:48,170
Things were added, so we want to go ahead

13
00:00:48,170 --> 00:00:49,910
and we want to sort this list. We would

14
00:00:49,910 --> 00:00:52,750
like to sort it, Let's say by the last

15
00:00:52,750 --> 00:00:55,530
name alphabetically, from A to Z A.

16
00:00:55,530 --> 00:00:58,500
Sending. So we come up here to the last

17
00:00:58,500 --> 00:01:01,970
name header to our head a row here and we

18
00:01:01,970 --> 00:01:04,310
see that there is a little arrow pointing

19
00:01:04,310 --> 00:01:06,050
down that indicates to us that there's

20
00:01:06,050 --> 00:01:09,510
something going on underneath. If you will

21
00:01:09,510 --> 00:01:11,420
were gonna click on that and we get this

22
00:01:11,420 --> 00:01:14,500
little pop up window. Now we see that we

23
00:01:14,500 --> 00:01:17,490
have two options sorting a dizzy or zita a

24
00:01:17,490 --> 00:01:19,760
A sending or descending. We're gonna

25
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:21,710
choose to sort this list and it's going to

26
00:01:21,710 --> 00:01:23,760
sort the whole list a dizzy

27
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,880
alphabetically. So we're gonna click there

28
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:31,550
and look at now. Our entire list is sorted

29
00:01:31,550 --> 00:01:36,380
alphabetically by last name, and I could

30
00:01:36,380 --> 00:01:40,890
go all the way down and it would be sorted

31
00:01:40,890 --> 00:01:44,410
by the last name all the way to the end.

32
00:01:44,410 --> 00:01:46,640
Now, when we take another look over here,

33
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,540
we now see that there's this little arrow

34
00:01:49,540 --> 00:01:52,370
and it's pointing upwards. This arrow

35
00:01:52,370 --> 00:01:54,320
indicates to us that this list has been

36
00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:57,960
sorted by this criteria by the last name.

37
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,800
And because the arrow is pointing up, we

38
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,880
know that it has been sort of a sending or

39
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:07,090
alphabetically, in this case, a disease.

40
00:02:07,090 --> 00:02:09,080
Now let's go ahead and let's go over here

41
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,710
to the date of Hire column. Let's say that

42
00:02:11,710 --> 00:02:14,620
we want to sort this list by the date of

43
00:02:14,620 --> 00:02:17,510
hire. Instead, let's go ahead and let's

44
00:02:17,510 --> 00:02:20,330
click there and we see older to newer,

45
00:02:20,330 --> 00:02:22,740
newer to older. We're gonna select newer

46
00:02:22,740 --> 00:02:27,330
toe older, and now it is sorted from the

47
00:02:27,330 --> 00:02:29,410
most recent employee, which happens to be

48
00:02:29,410 --> 00:02:33,280
me all the way down to our longest

49
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:37,570
standing employee, and we got to go all

50
00:02:37,570 --> 00:02:39,190
the way down to the bottom for that, and

51
00:02:39,190 --> 00:02:41,870
we see that it is Harry who's been with

52
00:02:41,870 --> 00:02:46,640
the company since 1999. So when we come

53
00:02:46,640 --> 00:02:48,750
back up to the top, we see again that the

54
00:02:48,750 --> 00:02:51,390
arrow is there only this time it's

55
00:02:51,390 --> 00:02:53,450
pointing down again, letting us know that

56
00:02:53,450 --> 00:02:57,970
it has been sorted, descending. Now notice

57
00:02:57,970 --> 00:03:00,970
that the arrow is off of the last name

58
00:03:00,970 --> 00:03:04,780
column and we're not sorted by the last

59
00:03:04,780 --> 00:03:07,380
name anymore. You can only sort this list

60
00:03:07,380 --> 00:03:10,590
by one criteria at a time at this simple

61
00:03:10,590 --> 00:03:14,850
level. All right, now, the thing about

62
00:03:14,850 --> 00:03:17,370
thes sorts is they don't stay in place

63
00:03:17,370 --> 00:03:19,130
unless you save it. And that's another

64
00:03:19,130 --> 00:03:22,120
lesson for another day. If I go ahead and

65
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:24,330
I leave my list, I'm gonna go to my home

66
00:03:24,330 --> 00:03:29,790
page and then I'm gonna go back to my

67
00:03:29,790 --> 00:03:32,340
lists. Will come back here to the employee

68
00:03:32,340 --> 00:03:38,100
list. You'll see that my shorts are gone.

69
00:03:38,100 --> 00:03:40,270
The list is once again sorted the way it

70
00:03:40,270 --> 00:03:43,980
was initially when we first came to the

71
00:03:43,980 --> 00:03:48,900
site again. Those sorts don't stay unless

72
00:03:48,900 --> 00:03:52,370
you save that view and we'll talk about

73
00:03:52,370 --> 00:03:55,520
that in another lesson. So now you know

74
00:03:55,520 --> 00:04:06,000
how to sort a SharePoint list. Thanks for listening and I'll see you next time
