Order Table Entries

Use this operation to control the order in which options appear in a drop-down or combo-box selection field.

Step 1

Select the Administration option from the main menu, followed by the Tables sub-option.

Note: The visibility of main menu options is determined by menu permissions. For more information about configuring menu permissions, see: Understanding Menu Permissions.

Step 2

Select the table you wish to re-order via the drop-down field on the filter-bar (top-right of the page).  This field defaults to Specimen Type.

Step 3

Select Order Table Entries from the action bar, between the page description and the filter bar (see above).

Note: The option to order table entries will only be available (visible) if the current user's role has the requisite permission.

The following  form should appear.

Step 4

Select the downward-pointing caret at the end of the row containing the table option you wish to move.  This will reveal a set of “move” options, as shown below.

Select the appropriate action and repeat step 4 until all table entry options appear in the desired order.
