Report Sorting Question

I'm a newbie to this software and have entered a years worth of records into the system now. Quite a task! Problem is I cannot seem to find a way to designate how I might want a report sorted prior to printing. A simple "Shelter View" report lists animals in a completely random order. Not by name, date, not by assigned pet ID#, not by length of time in shelter, etc. It is totally random. Can anyone advise on how to sort a report rather than needing to export and sort in Excel? Thank you in advance!!

The "Shelter View" isn't really a report, but you have many sort options for that view in drop down box in the upper right hand corner of the Shelter View screen. If you pick to sort by Species, for example, the animals are then sorted by Name. It depends on what information you want on your report (Report Menu), but most of the reports can be customized so sort anyway you want.

Also, if you don't have any reports in the reports menu, you can install some under Settings->Reports, then Browse sheltermanager.com
