Note:

Arrows ( and ) appear on list windows where the order of items may be important to you. On these types of lists, the order of the list determines the order that items print on invoices and reports. For example, you may want to list employee types in the same order as your company's organizational chart or in a special order for printing on invoices.

When you change an item with these arrows, the list order remains until you change it again, unlike when you want to temporarily change the sort order so as to quickly find an item in the list.

On windows where and appear, change the order of items in one of these ways:

Click an item, and while holding down the mouse, drag the item to where you want it.
