Order of opportunities in search bar

Is there anyway to change the order in which opportunities are listed when utilizing the search function on the dashboard page? Since we have been utilizing Award Management for a number of years, we have many opportunities that have more cycles than are visible within the drop down menu. It would be a great feature to be able to have the opportunities listed from most recent award cycle (both yearly / new and also renewals) to older years. We often have to select the Portfolio option and then select the Active Opportunities to access the “current” application cycle. For example, in the screenshot below, we are unable to access the Fall 2023 cycle without selecting the Portfolio option first.

    @Chris Zimmermann I am going to enthusiastically agree with this suggestion! I see no rhyme or reason to the order in which the opportunities are listed. We have only a few years under our belts so the current year only disappears when we have two scholarships with similar names or an expendable/endowed pair, but it seems like the most current cycle is ALWAYS on the bottom of the list. My bet is you will be encouraged to put your suggestion in the ideas bank

    If you do - post here and I will vote for it!

    @Chris Zimmermann, I'd 100% vote for this if added to the enhancements recommendations list. Just not sure how they are monitoring the lists these days and how/if we get updated on them. I know we have the quarterly updates but unless I missed it, I don't know if they tied them to this community board. In any case, I'd love to see this get implemented. I never understood the order in which it displays the search and why sometimes the only active one doesn't show up.
