When a form of any type is built in BE it comes with the ability to reorder the questions. Reordering can be done in a number of places.
When editing any question, Main Menu > Form Management > Form - Question Management > Question - Edit > Choose your form > Choose the question > Choose Custom Settings > Order and change the value in the drop down list.
This can be a cumbersome task when there are many questions to reorder. There is a numeric approach to performing the reordering en mass. Main Menu > Form Management > Form - Question Management > Question - Reorder > Choose your form > Changing the contents in the Current Order column. This view also allows for a number of other parameters to also be updated.
There is also a visual approach which allows for the dragging and dropping of questions to facilitate newer sort orders. Main Menu > Form Management > Form - Question Management > Question - Reorder - Drag and Drop > Choose your form > Reorder the items visually.
N.B. When using Section Groups, drag and drop reordering WILL NOT regroup the sections. This must be done manually and separately.
N.B. If using self generating logic or adding your own custom JavaScripting rules, reordering will require you to update your rules for the script to work properly.
