# Reordering Items

Draft Order Magic lets you reorder line items in your draft orders using drag-and-drop.

### How to reorder line items

#### Using drag and drop

1. Open a draft order in the editor
2. Find the line item you want to move
3. **Click and hold** the drag handle (⋮⋮) on the left side of the line item
4. **Drag** the item up or down to the desired position
5. A blue indicator line shows where the item will drop
6. **Release** to drop the item in place

The order you set is saved with the draft order.

### Limitations

#### Can't sort automatically

Draft Order Magic doesn't have automatic sorting. You must manually drag items. For automatic sorting, sort in a spreadsheet and use CSV import.

#### Large orders can be tedious

For orders with 100+ line items, consider using CSV import with items pre-sorted.

#### Mobile limitations

Drag-and-drop works best on desktop.

### Keyboard accessibility

Currently, reordering requires mouse/touch dragging. Alternatives:

1. Create the order with items in the desired sequence initially
2. Use CSV import with pre-sorted items

### Troubleshooting

#### Can't drag an item

* Make sure you're clicking the drag handle (⋮⋮), not the item itself
* Try refreshing the page if the handle isn't responding

#### Item snaps back to original position

* Drop the item when you see the blue indicator line
* Make sure your mouse button is fully released

#### Order not saving

* Click the **Save** button after reordering
* Changes to item order aren't auto-saved

#### Drag handle not visible

* Scroll up or down to bring the line item fully into view
* Try expanding your browser window if it's very narrow
