Enter the SORT command to display the list-field headings and their meanings. The ready list by default sorts the operations by job name within status. However, you can change the sort fields presented on the ready list. See Status, error, and reason codes for a complete list of status codes and extended status codes. If you sort operations by the actual start times, the jobs that have been running the longest will appear at the top of your display.

You cannot override sort criteria that you have specified on a filter panel with the SORT command.
