Orders records by a field, ascending or descending.

Nodes › LogicOpen in Neblex

Good for: Ranking and ordered output
Role: Works on the records in a flow
Find it in: Nodes › Logic

When to use it

A report, file or later step needs records in a specific order.
Together with Keep first N, it gives you a top ten.

Reach for something else when

Group & summarizeWhen you need totals per group rather than an order.

Example

Sort customers by revenue, descending, then keep the first ten for the weekly leaderboard.

How it works

Settings: Field to sort by; Order: Ascending (A → Z, 0 → 9) [default] or Descending.
Output: The same records, reordered. Numbers (and numeric text) sort numerically; missing and empty values come first when ascending. Records with equal values keep their order.
