Decision Center - physical format/collection sorting
In the settings for code categories (Physical Format and Collection), you can change the display order, but it only applies to that page, not to the option menu users see when building a report.
When creating a report, the list of categories is always alphabetical. There is also a "Sort A-Z" button, which is currently unnecessary (and caused confusion as its existence implies that there could be another way).
I suggest applying the manual display order set in Admin Tools to the "edit" pop-ups in the initial filters of a report.
This would allow us to put more commonly-used categories at the top of the list and to co-locate similar categories and thus save time and avoid mistakes/omissions.

Yes, this would be very helpful.

I am not sure what the point of an order is in the admin that doesnt carry over to the display, so yes, this makes good sense.
