If you do not see the draggable icon, you might need to click "Hide row weights" in the top right corner.

⚠️

Editing the weight by number is not recommended, as the UI for the input box is broken currently. Please make sure to toggle to "Hide row weights" and use the drag and drop instead.

Click save order and the list will reflect your current changes. Staff lists will be ordered by your chosen weight, then by last name.

Currently, any name with a degree acronym such as "Ph.D." that follows is regarded as a last name. Please make sure to reorder these names manually.
