MRSweb - Lesson 15.5 - Product Catalog - Sort, Filter

Lesson 15

Chapter 5 - Product Catalog - Sort, Filter

In addition to the pre-filtered views already set up, you are able to sort and filter your products in the tables of MRSweb.

Sort
​
Sorting data makes it easier to see and review the data displayed.  

Here's how to sort in a table: 

In the Grid view you can sort by any of the column headers.

In the example shown, in the next 2 screenshots,
we want to sort by the number of units sold YTD.

​To sort by a column header:

1 - tap or click a column header (Units Sold YTD)

​2 - select from the pop-up menu (Largest on Top)
​

i  When the Sort order is applied, you will see an arrow in the column header, indicating your selection choice (e.g. a down arrow means Largest on Top.

i Sort menu options will be slightly different, depending on the column header.

The screenshot seen below is sorted by Units Sold YTD so that the listing displays the number of units sold with the largest on top.

i Note the down arrow in the Units Sold YTD column header.

​Filter

​Filtering data separates out the unwanted information, hiding the information that doesn't meet your filter criteria.

As we mentioned earlier, you have pre-filtered views to choose from in the Product Catalog Sidebar.  These are the most common filters used by MRSweb Users.  These views have been set up to save you time and effort from having to filter the table every time you go to the Product Catalog.


Here's how to filter in a table:

​​In the Grid view you can filter by any of the column headers.

In the example shown in the following screenshots, we want to show only the products for one Manufacturer.  So we will filter the Manufacturer column.

​For our example, we typed "Toys" and then selected the full name displayed.

2 - Tap or click "Filter" from the slidebar

3 - Tap or click "Manufacturer"
