Specify the Order of Entries

You can specify the order of folders and entries in the portal. You may decide to organize entries by level of usage and place entries that you use daily at the top of the list.

By default, existing entries are sorted alphabetically. Entries added after the order is specified are shown at the end of the list.

To specify the order of entries, you must have read and write permissions for all entries in the folder and read and traverse permissions for the folder containing the entries.

Procedure

  1. In IBM® Cognos® Connection, click the tab you want.
  2. Click the order button Order icon on the toolbar.
  3. Select the entries in the Shown in default order list box and click the right-arrow button Right arrow icon to move them to the Shown first list box.

    Note: You specify the order of folders and entries independently.

  4. Click the Up, Down, To top, and To bottom links to move the folders and entries within the list.
  5. Click OK.
