3.Click the Layouts tab.

4.Open a layout associated with your business object. This example uses Alert. The Edit Layout: Alert page is displayed.

5.Click gridView from the Views in this layout section. The Edit Layout: Alert List View Editor page is displayed.

6.Click Edit on the right-hand side of the Toolbar section.

7.In the Toolbar Editor, drag and drop the Multisort option on the toolbar section.

8.Click Save.

9.To verify the changes:

a.

Multisort also works on hidden columns. Even if you hide certain columns, you can still use multisort on them although you cannot see the column in the list.
