# Sorting and Filtering Lists
In any module with a list, you can apply filtering and sorting to efficiently find information.
## Sorting
Click on the **Sort by**
button to show the menu of fields by which you can sort. Clicking a field will change the sorting, and a downwards or upwards arrow is displayed next to the field name, indicating ascending or descending sorting order. You can sort a list by multiple fields by adding them in the order you want to sort them.
In some lists, it is possible to sort by column. Those lists will have clickable column names, and a sort direction arrow will be visible next to the column name. You can sort by multiple columns by holding down the shift key while clicking on the column headers.
## Filtering
### Quick filters
Located above the lists, quick filters offer a convenient way to narrow down information.
1. To activate a filter, click on it and choose one or more values.
2. To remove a specific option from a filter, click the filter button and uncheck the value.
3. To clear all options from a filter, click the **Clear**  button inside the filter.
### Column filters
Certain list columns have a **Filter**  button when hovering the cursor over them. Clicking the button will display a filter for the elements in the column.
