Depending on your plan and user role, the Quick List may behave differently when it comes to alphabetical sorting. **Auto-Alphabetical Sorting for Single Counselor Plans** If you’re a single counselor on any of the following plans—**$59, $99, or $150**—your Quick List automatically organizes student names alphabetically. This feature ensures that your student list remains neatly ordered at all times without requiring additional action from you. ![](https://helpdesk.counselmore.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-09-2025-09-37-40-4019-AM.png?width=220&height=810&name=image-png-Jan-09-2025-09-37-40-4019-AM.png) **Auto-Alphabetical Sorting for Admins and Super Users** For multi-counselor accounts: • If you are an **Admin** or **Super User**, your Quick List also auto-sorts student names alphabetically. • This allows for a streamlined experience when managing a large number of students across multiple counselors. ![1-1](https://helpdesk.counselmore.com/hs-fs/hubfs/1-1.png?width=260&height=838&name=1-1.png) **Quick List Sorting for Non-Admin Counselors on Multi-Counselor Accounts** If you are a counselor on a **multi-counselor account** and are **not an Admin or Super User**, your Quick List includes an **A-Z filter option**. Here's how it works: **1. Default Behavior** ◦ Your Quick List does not automatically alphabetize the student names. ◦ When you select a student, that student will appear at the **top** of your Quick List for easy access. ![](https://helpdesk.counselmore.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Jan-09-2025-10-16-16-7684-AM.png?width=283&height=601&name=image-png-Jan-09-2025-10-16-16-7684-AM.png) **2. Using the A-Z Filter** ◦ To alphabetize your student list, simply click the **A-Z filter** option in the Quick List. ◦ This will arrange all student names in alphabetical order for easier navigation. ◦ If you select a new student after applying the A-Z filter, you may need to reapply the filter to restore alphabetical order. ### **Additional Resources** For more information on how to use QuickList, check out these related articles: [Clients -
