Action ribbon

• From the search menu (), you can start a new search using the advanced search builder, or edit the criteria for the advanced search you are currently performing. For more information about the advanced search builder, see Search builder.

• From the Sort by menu, you can sort the current content list by date, or by message sender.

  • Record Date (latest) sorts the list in descending order by date, latest (most recent) first. Similar to the Modify Date, the record date is the last modified date for the item itself. The difference is that the record date for email items is the sent date.

    • For file items and structured data items, this would be the last modified (saved) date.

    • For email items, this would be the sent date.

  • Record Date (earliest) sorts the list in ascending order by date, earliest (oldest) first. Similar to the Modify Date, the record date is the last modified date for the item itself. The difference is that the record date for email items is the sent date.

  • Last Scan Update Date (latest) sorts the list in descending order by date, latest (most recent) date first. The Last Scan Update Date is the date that the document was last scanned by the processing agent. A file is re-scanned if it has been modified at the original source location or if a reprocessing action that requires going back to the original source location has been initiated (such as re-analysis when the content has not been stored).

  • Last Scan Update Date (earliest) sorts the list in ascending order by date, earliest (oldest) date first. The Last Scan Update Date is the date that the document was last scanned by the processing agent. A file is re-scanned if it has been modified at the original source location or if a reprocessing action that requires going back to the original source location has been initiated (such as re-analysis when the content has not been stored).

  • Subject/Title (ascending) sorts the list alphabetically, A-Z, by the subject of an email item or the title of a document.

  • Subject/Title (descending) sorts the list alphabetically, Z-A, by the subject of an email item or the title of a document.

  • From (ascending) sorts the list alphabetically, A-Z, by the sender. If the content list contains email messages and data items not derived from email, the email messages display first followed by the data items ordered by date. If the content list does not contain any email messages, the data items display ordered by date.

  • From (descending) sorts the list alphabetically, Z-A, by the sender. If the content list contains email messages and data items not derived from email, the email messages display first followed by the data items ordered by date. If the content list does not contain any email messages, the data items display ordered by date.

  • File size (ascending) sorts the list by file size, smallest first.

  • File size (descending) sorts the list by file size, largest first.

• (Unstructured data only) From the Group by menu, you can choose to show individual items or documents/tables.

  • None shows individual data items that match the filter and search criteria with no grouping.
