Sorting Information in the Lower Pane

You can sort information displayed on the tabs in the lower pane by clicking the heading of a column. You can also sort more than one column at a time. The sorting feature for multiple columns can be extremely useful. For example, assume you have several clients that have failed backups. You would do the following:

1.Click the Status heading in the job column to sort for failed backups. The jobs are sorted according to status.

2.Press the CTRL key and click the Client heading.

The clients are sorted first according to their status and second to their client name. You can now easily view all clients with failed jobs in alphabetical order.

You can sort as many columns as you want on a tab. Notice that the arrow indicates an ascending or descending sort order. The arrow also decreases in size for each additional column that is sorted. The arrow sizes is a reminder of which column has sorting precedence. The largest arrow corresponds to the column for the first sort, the second largest column corresponds to the second sort, and so forth.
