Equipment Sorting and Filtering

Equipment may be sorted and filtered to show equipment with selected properties and personnel.

Sort Equipment

Equipment can be sorted by equipment name, number of acres assigned, or name of assigned personnel. To sort equipment in Dispatch Pro:

  1. Press the sort button . A dialog window will open.

  2. Select the option by which to sort the equipment. A selected option will be denoted by an arrow point next to the option.

    Note:  If the arrow is pointing up, the list will be sorted in alphanumeric order of the option selected. If the arrow is pointing down, the list will be in reverse-alphanumeric order of the selected option.

  3. If desired, select multiple options to further sort the equipment.

    Note:  The order of the sort options will indicate which is the highest priority for sorting. In the example above, equipment will be sorted first by personnel name in alphanumeric order. If the personnel is assigned to multiple pieces of equipment, the equipment will then be sorted by amount of acres assigned to it.

  4. If desired, select and drag the six dots next to the options to rearrange the order of the sort options.

Filter Equipment

The filter button changes which pieces of equipment are visible and which pieces of equipment are hidden.

To filter equipment in Dispatch Pro:
