When the "All Items" search is used in the header, you get a page of results.
On that page is a dropdown box with the word "Sort:" next to it (see image below).

Could you please add two new sort methods to this list: Item Number (Asc)
and Item Number (Desc)? And at the same time, could you please change
the wording in front of the dropdown box to say "Sort by:" instead of
just "Sort:" and put it in bold text?

The reason for this suggestion is that I do a *lot* of work in the catalog by
item number and by item name. Sorting by item name is covered in the dropdown
box, but sorting by item number is not. Due to this, I always have to switch
to the "Catalog Items" search to accomplish anything by item number. This adds
a lot of extra steps to my searches that are unnecessary, and I am sure that
I am not the only one who would benefit from these additions.

Thanks for your consideration,
Randy
