I've a requirement to reorder the above fields based on the selection of Region filter as follows. I want "<Region> Mandatory" field to be appear before "<Region> All"

Try putting an extra space before Mandatory so that lexicographical sorting will prioritise above single spaced values

| foreach "* Mandatory"
    [| rename "<<FIELD>>" as "<<MATCHSEG1>>  Mandatory"]

Hi @mnj1809,

Ciao.
