Reordering custom fields

You can change the order of custom fields to display them in a different order in items and on the Custom Fields page.

On Add, Edit, and View item pages, custom fields are displayed in the order they are configured in the field layout assigned to the user's security group, not the order they are listed on the Custom Fields page. If custom fields in items do not follow the order you want to use, update the order in the field layout. See Editing field layouts.
