    The Sort Section

    This information is not applicable to Primo VE environments. Only the Display, Facets, and Search sections are configurable in Primo VE. For more details, see Mapping to the Display, Facets, and Search Sections in the Primo VE Record.

    The fields in the Sort section in the PNX can be used as the basis for sorting the results set. The following table lists the fields in the Sort section.
