About sorting work orders on mobile
Using sort re-orders how work orders appear in the work order list view on the mobile app.
To sort the work orders list, tap the Sort icon () at the top of the work order list and select up to 2 criteria to sort by. After applying, the work order list is re-ordered according to the selected sort criteria.
Applied sort criteria and filters are listed at the top of the work order list along with some additional details:
Note
The Sort icon (,
) and the Filter icon (
,
) change from a darker shade to a lighter shade when sort or filters are applied. This helps users quickly see whether sort criteria or filters are affecting which work orders are shown in list view.
The Date modified (newest first) sort criteria is always applied by default, so the Sort icon remains a dark shade when this criteria is listed at the top of the work order list. When other sort criteria are applied, the Sort icon changes to the lighter shade.
Similarly, the All work orders and Status filters are always applied by default, so the Filter icon remains a dark shade when these filters are applied. When another filter is applied, then the Filter icon changes to the lighter shade.
The Reset button reverts the work order list to these default sort and filter options.
